Creating libraries need help!!

I do scientific computing (ecological modeling) but I am not a “computer of system” person so this may look like a silly question but I need help. I have been creating my own libraries for my research projects using the Make file that I show at the end. It has always worked OK. Our computer center, however, is always updating compilers, libraries, etc. When I tried to update my libraries yesterday however (after running Make spotless) I got these 2 messages (one a warning and another fatal):

pgCC-Warning-Unknown switch: --one_instantiation_per_object

I would appreciate any help I can get.

Makefile:

**export TMP = /var/tmp/
export TMPDIR = /var/tmp/

SRCS := $(wildcard *.cpp)

INCL := $(SRCS:.cpp=.h)

OBJS := $(SRCS:.cpp=.o)

CC = hcp
CFLAGS = -v -O2 -tp p6 --one_instantiation_per_object


.SUFFIXES: .cpp .h


all : libmario.a install

.cpp.o :
${CC} ${CFLAGS} --prelink_objects -c $<

#objs : $(SRCS) $(INCL)

${CC} ${CFLAGS} -c ${SRCS}\


libmario.a : ${OBJS}
${CC} ${CFLAGS} --prelink_objects ${SRCS}
ar -crvs libmario.a ${OBJS} Template.dir/*.o


install : libmario.a

Hi Mario,

As of the 6.0 compilers, made several enhancements to C++ templates which made it no longer necessary for users to use " --one_instantiation_per_object" during compilation nor perform the pre-link step on objects before adding them to a library.

For your makefile, remove “–one_instantiation_per_object”" from CFLAGS and remove the pre-link step and change where the archiver finds the object.

libmario.a : ${OBJS}
ar -crvs libmario.a ${OBJS} *.o

Hope this helps,
Mat
