Following up on my previous message, h5dump does display the data
correctly on both systems (but ncdump does not).

I created a file with a nested compound type on a 64 bit linux box.
Here's the output of ncdump on the linux machine:
nnetcdf test {
types:
compound cmp1 {
short i ;
int j ;
}; // cmp1
compound cmp2 {
float x ;
double y(3, 2) ;
}; // cmp2
compound cmp3 {
cmp1 xx ;
cmp2 yy ;
}; // cmp3
dimensions:
phony_dim = 1 ;
variables:
cmp3 phony_compound_var(phony_dim) ;
data:
phony_compound_var =
{{20000, 300000}, {100000, {-100000.028899567, -100000, -100000,
-100000, -100000, -100000}}} ;
}
Copying the file over to MacOS X and running ncdump there gives:
netcdf test {
types:
compound cmp1 {
short i ;
int j ;
}; // cmp1
compound cmp2 {
float x ;
double y(3, 2) ;
}; // cmp2
compound cmp3 {
cmp1 xx ;
cmp2 yy ;
}; // cmp3
dimensions:
phony_dim = 1 ;
variables:
cmp3 phony_compound_var(phony_dim) ;
data:
phony_compound_var =
{{20000, 300000}, {100000, {1.59954026355845e-314,
1.59954026355845e-314, 1.59954026355845e-314, 1.59954026355845e-314,
1.59954026355845e-314, 2.42435159293081e-154}}} ;
}
This is with netcdf 4.0.1 and hdf5 1.8.2 in both places. I've put the
netcdf file at ftp://ftp.cdc.noaa.gov/Public/jwhitaker/test.nc.
ncdump should give the same result both places, shouldn't it?
