I have run across a fustrating problem with mips ultrix 3.1 running on a DECstation 3100 . I several groups of fortran object files that I would like to place into seprate ar archives to be link together at a later time. When I try to create an archive with the following ar command: ar -q libeign.a *.o. I get the following error messages: ar: Error: phase error on all_modes.o ar: Error: phase error on analysis.o ar: Info: filename check_element_range.o truncated to check_element_r ar: Error: phase error on check_element_r ar: Error: phase error on check_prop.o ar: Error: phase error on comparison.o ar: Info: filename draw_eigenmode.o truncated to draw_eigenmode. ar: Error: phase error on draw_eigenmode. ar: Error: phase error on edit_prop.o ar: Error: phase error on eigen_info.o ar: Info: filename eigenmode_scale.o truncated to eigenmode_scale ar: Error: phase error on eigenmode_scale ar: Info: filename eigenvalue_test.o truncated to eigenvalue_test ar: Error: phase error on eigenvalue_test ar: Info: filename elasticity_matrix.o truncated to elasticity_matr ar: Error: phase error on elasticity_matr ar: Error: phase error on examine_modes.o ar: Error: phase error on hit_mode.o ar: Error: phase error on i4_stiff.o ar: Error: phase error on i6_stiff.o ar: Info: filename individual_prop.o truncated to individual_prop ar: Error: phase error on individual_prop ar: Error: phase error on l4_stiff.o ar: Error: phase error on l6_stiff.o ar: Info: filename literal_display.o truncated to literal_display ar: Error: phase error on literal_display ar: Error: phase error on material_prop.o ar: Error: phase error on overall_prop.o ar: Error: phase error on q4_stiff.o ar: Error: phase error on q8_stiff.o ar: Error: phase error on s3_stiff.o ar: Error: phase error on s5_stiff.o ar: Error: phase error on scroll_mode.o ar: Error: phase error on select_mode.o ar: Error: phase error on sort.o ar: Error: malformed archive (at 68) I tried creating an archive with a group of c objects and the ar achive gets created with no more then an error message complaining about the length of a file name. Does anyone know what is going on here? Can anyone suggest a fix? Paul Puglia : puglia@{cucevx.civil,cunixc.cc}columbia.edu Dept. of Civil Engineering Columbia University
