Changelog
v0.6.7 (09/05/15)
Fixes a bug that I introduced when changing the iharris variable to a logical type. The output files are now closer to the Windows version.
v0.6.6 (07/05/15)
Multiple changes using the latest available code from Greg's website. This should align with the Windows version v15.0605.
v0.6.5 (30/09/14)
Modified files antcalc.f and relbil.f using source files kindly supplied by Greg Hand to bring this version into line with VOACAP 14.0905
v0.6.4 (19/01/14)
Fixed a bug in which "Number of months" was printed when performing area calcs, irrespective of the -s flag. Fixed a typo which was causing the lat/lons to be printed incorrectly when performing area plots.
v0.5.5 (27/11/09)
Incorporated a patch from Thomas Beirlein (DL1JBE) to fix a bug in the Makefile.am. Added support for up to 25 area plots to be calculated. Ths number of plots supported is now defined at compile time by the parameter MAX_AREA_MONTHS in the file voa_defs.hdr.
v0.5.4 (5/11/09)
Modified the Makefile to remove a duplicate entry to the voacapg.dat file that was causing problems with the newer autotools distributed with Ubuntu 9.10.
v0.5.2 (4/9/09)
Tweaked the distribution a little to correct a few errors in the install.
v0.5 ()
- The itshfbc directory structure is now packaged with the main application.
- Changed the variable 'iharris' type to logical, making it suitable for use with inquire. This permits the 'it_exist.f' to be removed.
- ftnchek has been used to help cleanup some of the code in voa_lib
- dazel1: Variables set but never used: TLONR set at line 59 file voa_lib/dazel1.f. dazel1: Labels defined but not used: <200> defined at line 58 file voa_lib/dazel1.f. voacapw.f:
- Removed the ierase variable used to hold debug windows open.
v0.4.7 (14/8/09)
The correct versions of fobby.f and fdist.f are now being used. The earlier versions were causing some minor discrepancies between the Windows and Linux versions.
v0.4.6 (3/4/09)
Updated mpath.f with latest version published by Greg Hand.
v0.4.5 (14/3/09)
Changed the configure.ac to only look for gfortran. Some users have g77 installed which is unable to compile F90.
v0.4.4 (15/8/08)
Added a few checks to make sure that the input files exist when performing area calculations.
v0.4.3
*vg files are now correctly deleted (previous versions didn't delete files from 10 onwards.
v0.4.1 (25/4/08)
- Tested on Ubuntu 8.04 (gcc 4.2.3) and Fedora 8 (4.1).
- Removed some '1x1A' characters that had crept into the tail end of some files. This wasn't a problem on Fedora - I only noticed when trying to compile on my Ubuntu machine (GFortran 4.2).
- Updated to include changes made by Greg, described in news_win/08_04_10.txt. Area calculations now produce results in the range 0/360 or -180/180, according to the users origianl input. (Note: the python plotting scripts assume a range of -180/180)
- Running ftnchek identified a few files that don't get called in the Linux version. These have been removed these from the distribution; (voacapw) getkmf.f, gh_exec.f, lcase.f, ucase.f, (wp10dwin) getdirs.f, file_nam.f, curnorm.f, iant_idx.f, getantyp.f, getfiles.f, antinit.f, dirgain.f, (voa_lib) yieldit.f
- The file cisi.f was listed and compiled twice (in voacapw & wp10dwin). The copy in the voacapw directory has been removed.
- Replaced all 'stop' with a call to 'exit()' which allows a return value to be returned to a calling program which may be of use to a GUI. Return codes are defined in modules/errorcodes.f
- The external abort mechanism (using the .abt files) has been removed, along with the 'cancel_batch' subroutines
v0.4 (18/4/08)
This version came about following the discovery of a few bugs with a few .dat files. While trying to locate the bugs it quickly became apparent that it would be quicker to create a fresh port from the latest Windows version than to actually locate the bugs. This version is about as close to the original source as is possible and will be the breakpoint for future regressions. Work to port the source to F90/95 standards will continue but at a slower rate to allow for more testing between releases. In addition to the standard Windows functionality, this version supports the -s (silent) and -v (version) flags. It also allows up to 12 files to be specified in an area calculation.
v0.3.3 (14/4/08)
- The build system now uses GNU Automake. This is the first step towards adding a few processor dependant compiler optimisation flags for 32bit and 64 bit machines. I've noticed that I get slightly different results (+/- 0.1) on my x86_64 machine than my 32 bit machine, which gave exactly the same results as the Windows versions.
- The recent code changes made by Greg Hand have now been replicated over to align this version with Windows version '080410'. The changes include a modification to allow users to specify the location of magnetic North. Refer to the Windows notes for details. Many thanks to Greg for sharing the changes via his website. The files voacapw.f, geom.f, harris.f and gridxy.f were modified in accordance with the source published on Greg's site.
v0.3.2 (11/4/08)
Nothing major, just tidied up a few of the messages displayed on the screen at runtime.
v0.3.1 (8/12/07)
Modified a number of files to permit path lengths to the itshfbc directory of up to 255 characters. Spaces in path names didn't seem to be a problem during tests.
v0.3 (5/12/07)
- All warnings have been resolved (when compiled with Fedora GFortran 4.1.2-27)
- Added a (basic) man page to the distribution.
- Added support for a '-v' option to print the version number.
- Modified gphbod.f to remove a warning about jumping out of an 'if' control block. (This warning was the result of earlier refactoring around 0.2.6 that removed the arithmetic if statements).
- Modified order and size of some of common variables in fice_ssn.hdr, ficehdr.hdr and ficearea.hdr to align against 8 byte boundaries.
- Removed unused 'fileout' variable from hfmufs2.f (and call from voacapw.f)
- Removed unused 'freq' parameter from 'antsave' and corresponding calls from harris.f and antcalc.f.
- Removed unused 'filein' parameter from batch.f and batch_s.f and calls from voacapw.f.
- Refactored fdist.f to remove arithmetic if statements. (This file needs revisiting, the arithmetic ifs have simply been replaced with some rather clumsy code).
- Initialised 'agauss' to zero in agauss.f
- Modified order of Common block 'WIN_col' in wincolr.f to align on 8 byte boundaries.
v0.2.9 (26/11/07)
- lngpat.f, luffy.f, inmuf.f, cang.f, penang.f, xlin.f, matinv.f, find.f: re-factored to remove arithmetic if statements.
initialised the following variables to remove warnings at compile time;
- 'ofaz' in gain.f

v0.2.3 (August 07)
- Added the following lines to the hfmufs.f file; meth=METHOD if(mspec.eq.121) meth=30 The 'meth' variable is then used in the calls to write. This puts the correct method on the screen when Method 30 is called.

v0.2.1 (August 07)
Made a few changes in the hfarea.f:113 file to tidy up the progress display. The advance='no' option (available in F90) has been used instead of the sou@ function which is not supported in GFortran.
v0.2 (August 07)
Changed case of the 'Version.w32' file-name to 'version.w32' (lowercase 'V'). Changed case of the gain01/02 files created in the itshfbc/run directory. Changed the case of all source code file names.
