Hello,
I am a new user of netCDF. I am trying to get up and running using
netCDF on Windows XP.
First, I downloaded the Windows DLL binaries (version 3.6.1 seems to be
the most recent one available), but it did not have netcdf.h in it.
Next, I downloaded the netCDF 3.6.2 source distribution, but it does not
have the .SLN files needed for compiling with Visual Studio 2005 (or
2003).
So, I downloaded the netCDF 3.6.1 source distribution and tried to
compile it. When compiling in Release mode, I get 6 Build Error Tasks:
[file paths were redacted in all messages below]
1. nc_test range error: status = 0 FAILURE at line 5338 of
\netcdf-3.6.1\src\nc_test\test_put.c: range error: status = 0 (file:
nc_test)
2-4. nc_test range error: status = 0 (file: nc_test)
5. \netcdf-3.6.1\src\nc_test\large_files.c(77): warning C4013: 'getopt'
undefined; assuming extern returning int
6. \netcdf-3.6.1\src\nc_test\quick_large_files.c(74): warning C4013:
'getopt' undefined; assuming extern returning int
Finally, I got the netCDF-3 daily snapshot (dated 2007-06-20). I get
one Build Error Task, but I think this one seems innocuous since I am
not using the Fortran interface (I plan on using the C++ interface):
1. \netcdf-3.6.2-snapshot2007062014\fortran\fort-control.c(98): warning
C4141: 'dllexport' : used more than once
However, when I run nc_test, I get two failures (this also occurred with
the 3.6.1 distribution as well):
Switching to netCDF classic format.

Switching to 64-bit offset format.

\netcdf-3.6.2-snapshot2007062014\nc_test\test_read.c: nc_open of

Will these failures affect my ability to use the netCDF library? Or can
I go ahead and use the DLLs that were produced?
Thanks,
Marcus
