13/06/2016 Change to use XIOS2 by default in libIGCM configurations

13/06/2016, J. Ghattas

XIOS 2 is now used by default instead of XIOS 1.0 in the libIGCM configurations ORCHIDEE_trunk, LMDZOR_v6 and IPSLCM6.0.4. Modifications related to XIOS 2 :

• change source code from XIOS/branchs/xios-1.0 to XIOS/trunk revision 858
• change compile option for makeorchidee_fcm to -xios2 (this option will activate the cpp key XIOS and XIOS2.
• change iodef.xml file. Now use src_xml/iodef_xios2.xml, before use rename it to iodef.xml
• note: no change in the other xml files
• note: ORCHIDEE do not yet use any new features available with XIOS2 (to come later: interpolations with XIOS, output of variables with more than 3 dimensions,..)
• note: it is still possible to use IOIPSL. Change to compile using gmake without_xios and set XIOS=n in orchidee_ol.card

If you make a new installation of the trunk ORCHIDEE with the libIGCM configurations ORCHIDEE_trunk and/or LMDZOR_v6 you will probably not notice any difference.
