Hi Guys,
I'm guessing you are already aware of this bug.

The  maximum value  for a  dimension   is   NC_MAX_UINT  (2^32-1).

See file below I've been experimenting with


Regards Henry


netcdf sct {
dimensions:
lat=2;
lon=2;

big_max_uint=4294967295;  //works
big_max_flt=4e9;          //works

//big_max_int64=9223372036854775807;

variables:

float wbl_pwr(lat, lon) ;

data:

wbl_pwr= 2.,3.,4.,5.;
}
