Re: Octave 3.0.3 compile error in dtgevc.f

[Per Birkestad]

Thanks a lot John,

I just commented those lines away and it worked...(the compliation, at least :)

However, I ran into a new error so I tried to change the f77 compiler to gcc and now I got it running. Nice!

regards

Although they might be interpreted as special directives by some
compilers, there lines are still nothing more than comments.  I don't
understand why a compiler would ever fail on an unrecognized

directive.

Hmm.  This must be your problem.  Why not use gfortran to compile the
Fortran bits?  Or, if you really feel the need to use this compiler,
then maybe there is a switch to tell it to treat all comments as
comments and not try to recognize them as compiler directives?
