Hi all,
I boiled my problems down to a very, very simple netcdf-program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <netcdf.h>
int main(void)
{
int val = 13;
int ncid, dimid, varid;
printf("%s\n",nc_inq_libvers());
nc_create("nc4_test.nc", NC_NETCDF4, &ncid);
nc_def_dim(ncid,"val", 1,&dimid);
nc_def_var(ncid,"val", NC_INT, 1,&dimid,&varid);
nc_enddef(ncid);
nc_put_var_int (ncid,varid,&val);
nc_close(ncid);
return 0;
}
compiles fine with:
gcc -o nc4_test nc4_test.c -lnetcdf -lhdf5_hl -lhdf5
./nc4_test says:
4.0 of Aug 1 2008 16:01:13 $
ncdump nc4_test.nc gives the output as expected:
netcdf nc4_test {
dimensions:
val = 1 ;
variables:
int val(val) ;
data:
val = 13 ;
}
Now the problem is valgrind ./nc4_test:

Did I do something wrong or is this a serious problem, and how can I solve it?
Although it seems to work, I don't want to proceed with valgrind errors.
Thanks a lot
