Hi Christopher:
the problem is the _FillValue attribute empty string:
char staticIds(maxStaticIds, totalIdLen);
:_FillValue = "";
I made this fix to ucar.netcdf.Attribute ~line 531:
Number
getNumericValue(int index)
{
if (index >= data.length())
return new Integer(0);
else
return new Integer(data.charAt(index));
}
can you patch the source yourself (or modify file)? i will add fix to next
release.

I tried the following versions of the netcdf/Java libraries:
version 1: Worked perfectly with our files.
version 2: Threw an exception when creating
an instance of NetcdfFile.
version 2.1 beta: Same as with version 2.
The JAR file I used for version 2 is dated 8/22/02:
ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf-java/netcdf2All.jar
and the one I used for version 2.1 is dated 10/25/02:
ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf-java/v2.1/netcdf2All.jar
I've included one of the netcdf files that cause the
following exception to be thrown at construction time:
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 0

This is from Java 1.3 (build 1.3.1_04-b02) for Windows XP,
but I get the same error when running on a Linux machine.
Does this help at all? We'd prefer to use version 2.x of
the netcdf/Java library if possible, as the interface seems
easier to work with, so we're hoping that we can get it
working with our netcdf files.
Thanks!
