Normally you should show what the error message is.
I assume you have a class cast exception on
Iterator gi = nc.getGlobalAttributeIterator();
while( gi.hasNext() ) {
Variable v = (Variable) gi.next();
The docs say:
getGlobalAttributeIterator
public java.util.Iterator getGlobalAttributeIterator()
Returns the set of attributes associated with this file, also know as the
"global" attributes. CHANGE TO GENERIC
Returns:
Iterator objects are type Attribute
So the iterator returns objects of type Attribute, not Variable
