I am using j2sdk1.4.2_01 and apache-ant-1.5.4.
Tried deprecation too, no help.  Should I use older j2sdk?

I also tried v2.2-netcdfSrc.jar, it went fine.
But the codes are quite different than v2.1-netcdfSrc.jar

Which version of netcdf-java is recommended for development?

Thanks in advance,

Zhangfan

2.1  is correct version, 2.2 is not released, and wont work.

you are using an incompatible version of dods source. any reason not to just use the provided netcdfDods.jar file?

ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf-java/v2.1/netcdfDods.jar

The build.xml file in v2.1-netcdfSrc.jar has these lines:

<property name="dodsSrc.dir" location="${root.dir}/../Java-DODS"/>
......
<pathelement location="${dodsSrc.dir}"/>

I figured I needed dods source.

With your suggestion I have succeeded using netcdfDods.jar.
Out of curiosity, where is the compatible version of dods source?
