The current release (4.0.08) of NetCDF-Java has support for reading
HDF4/HDF-EOS and HDF5/HDF5-EOS
files. We need beta testers to try this and report any problems and
suggestions. Because HDF4 and
HDF5 file formats are complex, we need to test as many different files as
possible.
In the simplest case, open HDF4/HDF5/NetCDF4 files with the ToolsUI program:

Comparing results with the existing HDF4/HDF5/NetCDF4 libraries would
especially be appreciated.
Please forward this message to anyone interested in beta-testing access of
these files through a
100% Java library.
