I have a relatively straightforward manually-edited CDL file that I'm turning
back into a netCDF file, and I'm getting a 'syntax error' from what looks to me
to be completely acceptable CDL:
prompt> ncgen -n example.cdl
ncgen: example.cdl line 84: syntax error
Here's the offending portion:
79 float dzw(z_w) ;
80 dzw:long_name = "midpoint of k to midpoint of k+1" ;
81 dzw:units = "centimeters" ;
82 dzw:_FillValue = 9.96921e+36f ;
83 dzw:missing_value = 9.96921e+36f ;
84 double ULONG(nlat, nlon) ;
85 ULONG:long_name = "array of u-grid longitudes" ;
86 ULONG:units = "degrees_east" ;
87 ULONG:_FillValue = 9.96920996838687e+36 ;
88 ULONG:missing_value = 9.96920996838687e+36 ;
I'm stumped.
