Re: [netcdfgroup] IMPORTANT: patch release for HDF5-1.8.4 needed for netCDF-4
Is the recent HDF5 1.8.4 patch all that's needed to get NetCDF 4.1 working again, or is a patch required for NetCDF 4.1 as well?
I'm wondering if I should redo all my NCL builds now, or wait for a NetCDF 4.1. patch. 

Thanks,

--Mary

Mary,


Thanks for the update Russ.

If we revert back to NetCDF 4.0.1, what version of HDF5 do you
recommend we use?

--Mary
We tested netCDF-4.0.1 with HDF5-1.8.2, but I think it should also work 
with HDF5-1.8.3, though there may be memory leak issues with those
combinations. To be certain, we'll have to do some additional testing.

Russ is correct. Use hdf5-1.8.3 with netCDF-4.0.1, there are several
memory bug fixes that increase performance.

Thanks,

Ed
