Dfconsol.lib or Ifconsol.lib for linking earexe ?

September 12, 2008, 11:11

Dear all,

I try to Build Earth, but it fails with error in the linking process. The message given in the builtear file (I attach the content of Bldear.BAT below) is :

"LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "ifconsol.lib".

In the Lib directory of my Visual Fortran compiler, I found Dfconsol.lib, but there is no ifconsol.lib.
Is this where the error originates ? If yes, then how can I change the setting of linking process so that it calls Dfconsol.lib instead of ifconsol.lib ?

Regards,

Noel

Dear Noel, Can you tell me which version of PHOENICS you have?

Thank's for the reply, Alan

My version is Phoenics 2006 while the Fortran compiler is Compaq Visual Fortran Standard 6.6.0, which is a DIGITAL (not Intel) Visual Fortran.

Noel

Hi Noel, That is part of the problem. With the release of Phoenics 2006, CHAM stopped support for the Compaq Visual Fortran compiler and would only support the Intel version. If you switch over to the Intel version, that should eliminate the problem. Also, if you are a graduate student, you should be able to download it for free.

Best Wishes, Allen

Thank's, Allen

So the problem is the Fortran version and I must use the Intel one. It's not free to download for graduate student, though. I only tried the evaluation license (free for 30 days) of the Intel® Visual Fortran Compiler 10.1, yet there seems to be another problem when it runs compile.bat.

The error message points at the modul F_Array_Data in Phoenics 2006 which is incompatible with Intel® Visual Fortran Compiler 10.1. Should I use an older version of Intel Compiler ?

Regards,

Noel

Providing the full path of the lib directory to the "Additional Linrary Directories" solved my problem.
