Hi Ed:For the type of data, think of subsurface profiles, where each profile has a different number of depths, and the depths themselves differ.
I am in Fortran 90. I can set up a structure (derived type), just as in C, that has the number of depths, and two arrays of size (number of depths) that has the depth of the observation and the observation itself, and then I have an array of that structure. It strikes me that this is what Vlenare for, and is what is in the C example. So how do I define and write this using the Fortran 90 calls?

Hi All: I am working on creating a netcdf4 file with the structure we are trying to achieve. I have a file with Box10 groups and B0x2 subgroups, works great. Now I am trying to do ragged arrays. Below is the only fortran example I can find that does ragged arrays. It is only writing one,1-dimensional array, so I am unsure what I do when I am writing an N-dimensional ragged array. Do I just write each "column" in a loop - if so how does it know that it is writing to the same structure? Or if I can do multiple "columns" at once, how do I set that up. More realistic examples would be very helpful, including an example that writes an N-dimensional ragged array, and an example that adds one more column to an existing ragged array. Even just the fortran equivalent of the program tst_vl.c would be very helpful It is clear how to do it in C (I set up an array of structures of the given form), but not in either version of FORTRAN. Thanks, -RoyHmmm, that's a bit of a stumper, really.Can you tell me how you are storing these in fortran? You have an array of what?Thanks, Ed Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: KJX-899747 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Open
