Compilation errors

[julemai]

Hi there,

I cloned the Develop branch and try to compile it (using make) on MacOS/Linux. I am using mpicxx version 15.0.0. I am however getting error messages like:

In file included from streamnet.cpp:56:
./linklib.h:281:2: error: static assertion failed: MPI_Type_extent was removed in MPI-3.0.  Use MPI_Type_get_extent instead.
        MPI_Type_extent(MPI_LONG, &extent);

                                                          ^             ~

Would you want me to resolve these in a separate branch and create a pull request in case I am able to resolve them? Should I work off the Develop branch or the Master? Or would you like to look into this? Which compiler version are you using. I could also just try to downgrade to an older compiler.

Thanks,
Julie

Please see here the full output of the compilation (including all warnings and error messages).

If you can resolve thse in a branch from Develop and make a pull request, that would be great. I use a PC with Windows, however have not worked on TauDEM for a while.

Sounds good. I will try if I get that running.

Could you give me write permissions? I currently can't create a branch.

[julemai]

Resolved all errors and some additional warnings. Just waiting to be able to publish the branch and get the pull request done. :)

@julemai I'd prefer it if you cloned the repository and made a pull request against the code in your clone. See https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/49745 (or elsewhere) for guidance on this.

I don't get that running. It just doesn't let me publish any branch that I create even following above.

I will just work with the local version I have now. I also saw that there is a pull request from 2022 that might solve the outdated MPI commands already.

I'm happy if you close this issue.
