Re: [netcdf-java] Bug in GridDatatype.getRank()?

Thanks John, the :8080 dataset works fine.

I noticed something slightly unexpected - the "temperature @ height
above ground" variable doesn't have a z axis on :8080 but it does on
:9080.  On :9080 the z axis has a single value of 2 (metres above
ground).  Just thought you might like to know this in case it's
indicative of a problem.

Cheers, Jon

  Hi Jon:

motherlode.ucar.edu:9080 fmrc datsets are currrently broken, because
thats running TDS 4.2.
The corresponding dataset on 8080 should work.

im working to get a fix for this, ill post a notice when i think its
ready.
