Compilation error: ipo error 11018, omitting main file

[Christian_B_2]

Hi,

I'm trying to compile my code from the command line using a Makefile on Windows 10 (64 bit). I'm getting ipo error 11018. When executing nmake, the compiler seems to be omitting the line corresponding to the generation of the .obj for the main file. I guess that is causing the ipo error. I still don't understand why this is happening. I'm attaching the Makefile and the file with the dependency tree.

Note: I had to change add the extension .txt to the attached files so the forum lets me upload them.

This is what I get after executing nmake

nmake /A

Your build missed/errored or failed to include Ratio_Steady_2.f90

Thanks, Jim. But I think I'm compiling Ratio_Steady_2.f90 in the last line of lw.dep, or am I missing something? I don't know why nmake is ignoring that line. I already tested the code in VS and I could build it with no issues, so I don't think that's the problem.

[jimdempseyatthecove]

Not sure why myself (in looking at your lw include file).

I suggest you experiment by moving " Ratio_Steady_2.obj" from the right end of the FOBJ to the left end of FOBJ...
... and moving the last line that builds it to an earlier line.

Then monitor your build output for unexpected output.

I did what you suggested, but it had no effect. nmake seems that doesn't care about the order I specify when generating each obj file. It compiles each obj in an order that doesn't conflict with the module calling, though.

As long as this happens, and nmake is not successful in generating Ratio_Steady_2.obj, the order in FOBJ seems to be irrelevant.

The "clean" option in your makefile deletes .o files, not .obj.

Can you try fixing that, issuing a clean, and then rebuilding with the edits that Jim had suggested?

[Christian_B_2]

Thanks, Lorri. I just fixed that, and applied the edits Jim suggested, but nmake is still ignoring the line that builds Ratio_Steady_2.obj, no matter where I put it, and no matter the order in FOBJ.

I do not in any way pretend to be a make/nmake expert, but where you have the following:

# Suffix-rules:  Begin by throwing away all old suffix- 
# rules, and then create new ones for compiling  
# *.f90-files. 
.SUFFIXES: 
.SUFFIXES: .f90 .mod

.f90.mod:
	$(FC) /c $(FFLAGS) $<

I am not seeing a rule to go from .f90 to .obj. Since the dependencies list doesn't indicate that Ratio_Steady_2.f90 creates a .mod, nmake has no clue what to do with it.

[Christian_B_2]

Thanks, Steve! That made the trick. I had forgotten the rule from .f90 to .obj.
