[netcdfgroup] netcdf4 -problems

Hi all,

It seems that using netcdf4 API with hdf5 files I have the following problem:

If a dimension is defined in the output file -- then a variable of the same name as the dimension defined in output MUST have a single dim which is the same name a the defined dimension. This is not the case with netcdf3. what I am saying is that the defined var is OK as a co-ordinate var but not anything else


The below script illustrates the problem:

defdim("a",2); // dim *"a=2"* defined in output defdim("b",3); // dim *"b=3"* defined in output
defdim("c",4);             //  dim *"c=3"*  defined in output
a[$a,$b]=10.0; // variable "a" defined as "*double a[a,b];*" works in netcdf3 but NOT netcdf4 c[$c]=20.0 // variable "c" defined as "*double c[c];" *works in metcdf3 and netcdf4* *
