parameter must be a compile-time constant

[aelkouk]

Hello

I am trying to move hardcoded parameters in a modified CLM50 version (based on release-clm5.0). To do that, I am following Oleson commits e.g., First round of moving parameters to param file. · olyson/ctsm@9a3c0f3

I am getting the following compile error when trying to move parameters (e.g., om_frac_sf, csol_sand) in biogeophys/SoilStateInitTimeConstMod.F90:

/glade/work/elkoukah/ctsm_gw/cime/../src/biogeophys/SoilStateInitTimeConstMod.F90(25): error #6683: A kind type parameter must be a compile-time constant. [R8]
25 real(r8) :: csol_sand ! Heat capacity of sand *10^6 (J/K/m3)
26 ----------^
27 /glade/work/elkoukah/ctsm_gw/cime/../src/biogeophys/SoilStateInitTimeConstMod.F90(108): error #6633: The type of the actual argument differs from the type of the dummy argument. [CSOL_SAND]
28 call readNcdioScalar(ncid, 'csol_sand', subname, params_inst%csol_sand)
29 -----------------------------------------------------------------^

Thank you!

I was trying to look at your code (/glade/work/elkoukah/ctsm_gw/src/biogeophys/SoilStateInitTimeConstMod.F90) to try to help sort this out, but I don't see any of the statements referenced above. Have you moved this code or changed it?

Can you please check again, I have checkout the code to that particular point.

Ok, you will need this statement at the top of that module:

use shr_kind_mod , only : r8 => shr_kind_r8

I think that should address this error:

/glade/work/elkoukah/ctsm_gw/cime/../src/biogeophys/SoilStateInitTimeConstMod.F90(25): error #6683: A kind type parameter must be a compile-time constant. [R8]
25 real(r8) :: csol_sand ! Heat capacity of sand *10^6 (J/K/m3)

and maybe the second error, not sure....

Issue fixed, thanks so much!
Have a nice day
