Howdy all! With the recent release of HDF5 1.8.0-beta1, it is now possible for us to release netCDF-4.0-beta1, and it is now available from the netCDF web site: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/ The netCDF-4.0 beta release requires HDF5 1.8.0-beta1, and zlib-1.2.3. These can be obtained from the netCDF-4 FTP site: ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-4 Build instructions can be found here: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs_beta/netcdf-install.html#Quick-Instructions-for-Installing-NetCDF-on-Unix Documentation for this release can be found on the netCDF beta documentation page: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs_beta/ For more information about this release, see the netCDF-4.0 beta release notes: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/release-notes-4.0-beta.html Recent changes in netCDF-4.0 include the use of the new creation ordering capabilities of HDF5 1.8.0. Since this feature was added to HDF5 very recently, the HDF5-1.8.0 beta1 release is now required for netCDF-4.0; previous versions of HDF5 will no longer work. Build output from a variety of platforms may be found at the netCDF-4 snapshot build page: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/builds/snapshot/index_4.html The version 4.0 release of netCDF includes many new features, with a correspondingly higher risk of bugs in the code and the documentation. Please report any problems to support-netcdf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Thanks! Ed
Ed: Thanks! beta1 works fine and passes all the tests with my python module. However, ncdump appears to be broken - every netcdf-4 file I try results in something like this:
ncdump: test.nc: HDF error It seems to work fine with netcdf-3 files however. -Jeff -- Jeffrey S.
