Hi,
I wanted to try some compression on a dataset whilst converting to netcdf4/hdf5
to see if we can save some space.
I have my compound type defined as such:
if (nc_def_compound(grp2id, sizeof(struct elements), "sample_elements",
&typeid))
ERR(retval);
if (nc_insert_compound(grp2id, typeid, "elem", offsetof(struct elements, elem),
NC_INT64))
ERR(retval);
if (nc_insert_compound(grp2id, typeid, "type", offsetof(struct elements, type),
NC_INT))
ERR(retval);
if (nc_insert_compound(grp2id, typeid, "x", offsetof(struct elements, x),
NC_INT))
ERR(retval);
if (nc_insert_compound(grp2id, typeid, "y", offsetof(struct elements, y),
NC_INT))
ERR(retval);
if (nc_insert_compound(grp2id, typeid, "z", offsetof(struct elements, z),
NC_INT))
ERR(retval);
and then I call:
if ((retval = nc_def_var(grp2id, "data", typeid, 2, dimids, &varid2)))
ERR(retval);
which works fine. If add in the following, before my call to nc_put_var:
if (retval = nc_def_var_deflate(ncid, varid2, 0, 1, 1))
ERR(retval)
I get the error:
Error: NetCDF: Variable not found
which is odd as "varid2" is a legal variable id.
Any thoughts?
