Re: Opening nc.zip files

Hi Pauline,
I think you have an old version of the grib-*.jar library on your classpath before the netcdf-*.jar file. The ucar.unidata.io.RandomAccessFile class is distributed in both library files and if those two libraries aren't in sync it can cause trouble.
The versions in netcdfAll-2.2.20.zip should match up. Here's the version info from the grib jar file: 

Built-On: 2007-05-15 13:13:58
Implementation-Version: 5.1.03

Hi all,

I'm having trouble trying to open a nc.zip file.  I'm using the latest
version of the NetCDF library (netCDF 2.2.20).  Do I need to download
another library for the getRandomAccessFile method? 
When I open it, I get the following error message:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
ucar.unidata.io.RandomAccessFile.getRandomAccessFile()Ljava/io/RandomAccessFile;

    at au.org.tpac.test.TestCDM_Main.doFile(Unknown Source)
    .....

Interestingly, it works fine on TDS - when I browse for the file in TDS,
it's able to show all the attributes of the files.  In fact, the file
doesn't even show up a zip file.  Maybe there's another magical method
for opening the file?  I'm opening files using the method:

GridDataset.open ("file:///" + dirName);

Thanks for any help in advance :)

Cheers,

-Pauline.
