This is probably a result of my attempting
to support embedded NUL characters.
I will take a look.

When running ncgen on the attached in.cdl file I get these errors, and the .nc file is not generated

pvicente@glace:~/nco$ /home/pvicente/install/netcdf-c-4.3.1-rc3/bin/ncgen -k netCDF-4 -b -o in.nc in.cdl

ncgen: in.cdl line 579: bad octal character constant: '\200'
ncgen: in.cdl line 579: bad octal character constant: '\201'
ncgen: in.cdl line 579: bad octal character constant: '\376'
ncgen: in.cdl line 579: bad octal character constant: '\377'



the relevant line in the cdl file is

float att_var(time);
att_var:byte_att = '\000','\001','\002','\177','\200','\201','\376','\377';



RC2 has no problem with this

using

uname -a

Linux glace 3.2.0-25-generic #40-Ubuntu SMP Wed May 23 20:30:51 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I built RC3 with

./configure --prefix=/home/pvicente/install/netcdf-c-4.3.1-rc3 --enable-hdf4-file-tests --enable-hdf4 --enable-dap

this should not matter , but this was built with HDF4 linkage

H4DIR=/home/pvicente/install/hdf-4.2.9
CPPFLAGS="-I${H4DIR}/include"
LDFLAGS="-L${H4DIR}/lib"

Hello all,

On behalf of the netCDF-C development team, we are happy to announce the availability of the third release candidate for netCDF-C version 4.3.1.

Highlights of this release beyond the previous release candidate include:

* netCDF-4 compilation with OpenMPI as an alternative to MPICH2.
* Addressed Parallel netCDF-4 hanging when using HDF5 1.8.10.
* Large File Support on Windows is now functional.

* A new option for CMake-based Visual Studio builds, 'NC_USE_STATIC_CRT', used to specify which type of CRT libraries to link against (shared being the default).

Source-code zip and tar.gz archives can be found at: http://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases/tag/v4.3.1-rc3

Complete release notes may be found at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs_rc/release_notes.html

Pre-built Windows binaries are available from: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs_rc/winbin.html

We look forward to addressing any issues, questions or concerns which may arise from this release candidate.

Thank you in advance,

-Ward
