Remember for any netcdf >=4.2.0: one c package, one f package. So, 4.3.0 means
one c, and one f, and you must install both in order to play with fortran.
As is seems, you are going to go with gfortran, then that shouldn't be that
hard at last. Not that it will be easy tough.
By your other mail, when you --disable-netcdf-4, you disabled actual support
for the newer netcdf format. If I remember well, you need zlib and hdf5
libraries on place before you can enable the new features. You -must- be able
to yum/zypper/yast/yast2 install zlib, any distro should have it, and for your
version of suse, I doubt zlib is too outdated.
Now for the HDF5... There's good chance you can install it using the same ways,
if not, you have to run the hassle of hand-compiling yet another package.
Well, if things become too harsh, you can give ubuntu a try. I am not a
personal fan of it but I know it has hdf and netcdf for 'apt-get install'. It
would be a good starting point to know how would you need to expect an netcdf
installation to be succeeded.
Just out of curiousity, whats your native speaking language? Interesting how
the equivalent English sentences become. :)
I hope these directions can take you further...

netcdfsoftware into my linux platforms
Hello Fabricio,
Thanks for your help very much, it's very useful and helpful to me.
But in my platform Opensuse11.2, yum-install and zypper-install is not
valid, so I must download the source software to install netcdf.
In order to achieve my purpose, I have Plan A:
I found netcdf-4.3.0.tar.gz and uploaded it to my server. As a root, I tar
-zxvf it and find the installation package. I want to know in this gzip package
whether or not there are not only version C but version F. If it includes both
of them, I will do installation by steps introduced by installation documents.
& Plan B:
If the above installation method is not ok, I will do as you told me. that
is, I download version C source master zip and version F
source master zip for my installation. but need I download the libraries
accompanies with both source master zips? maybe I should download version C and
version F, then gunzip them and install them sequentially by your advices.
I must to tell you I am a novice for netcdf, so I have some ridiculous
questions about the installation step or the system issues. pls excuse me for
that.
best regards,
yours ever
alex

Before all the burden, have you tried yum install netcdf ? I believe there are
a pre-build package for NetCDF on OpenSuse; although it may miss the fortran
version.
Since NetCDF 4.2.x, there are two source packages, NetCDF-c (the main one) and
NetCDF-fortran. Install first the package for the c version, then procceed to
the fortran version.
While I think there’s no problem for the c version, if you are going to use the
fortran version of NetCDF, ensure you compiled it with the compiler you are
going to use with your project. For example, if you are using the intel
compiler suite, ensure you compile the NetCDF library with ifort not gfortran.
If you are using only GNU suite, then everything should be straightforward.
The fortran version is just below the c version. In the page you linked you can
read “
NetCDF C Stable Releases
“
With the NetCDF c links. Just below, there’s a “
NetCDF Fortran Releases
“
And voila you’re there. Below are the c++ variant, and the first one is for
java.
If you really want a NetCDF version that comes with both c and fortran bundled,
you are looking for NetCDF 4.1.1.
Lastly, a library is like an windows’ .dll (which stands for dynamically linked
library). You don’t need any source code in order to use the library. You may
use additionally, though, the header/include files that usually are left
somewhere at /usr/include (/usr/local/include or whatever root path you used to
install the library). The source code is used only to build the library, be it
NetCDF, be it whatever else.
I hope this answers some of your questions. Remember looking for if your linux
distribution has precompiled binary packages for the library, it may save you a
whole lot of trouble. You are out of luck I guess, if you have to deal with
other compiler like intel, pathscale, cray or pgi (meaning you will have to
compile the package anyway).

Hello netcdfgroup,
Nowadays, I want to install netcdf into my linux platform open-suse11.2.
I find the source link in unidata
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/netcdf/index.jsp , but I find there is
not only version C but version F, which both will be used by my future task.
and how can I get the installation software containing both those version and
how can I install the software if it is found? can you give me hand?
BTW, why netcdf libraries is independent of netcdf source code? I must
install them separately ?
best regards,
yours ever
alex
