Re: [netcdfgroup] Fw: NcVar put method

I am not very good with pointers some times it confuses me. The dim variable is 
a pointer to an array of integer. 

int *dim;
dim = new int[2];
dim[0] = 6;
dim[1] = 12;


and in this case it points to the address of the first element. Please correct 
me if I am wrong.
data->put(&dataOut[0], *dim); 

I find this signature strange because how the put method can determine the 
length of the counts variable. Any way If I change the method as you suggest I 
will get compilation error
simple_xy_wr2.cpp:60: error: call of overloaded ‘put(int*, int*&)’ is ambiguous
/usr/include/netcdfcpp.h:239: note: candidates are: NcBool NcVar::put(const 
int*, long int, long int, long int, long int, long int) <near match>
/usr/include/netcdfcpp.h:241: note:                 NcBool NcVar::put(const 
long 
int*, long int, long int, long int, long int, long int) <near match>
/usr/include/netcdfcpp.h:253: note:                 NcBool NcVar::put(const 
int*, const long int*) <near match>
/usr/include/netcdfcpp.h:254: note:                 NcBool NcVar::put(const 
long 
int*, const long int*) <near match>

One thing: you mention you intend to use the signature
   NcBool put(const ....* vals, const long* counts)

but when you call 
   data->put(&dataOut[0], *dim);

(note the "*dim" which dereferences to a long, rather than long *)
it'll call a different member function, namely
   NcBool put( const int* vals, long c0=0, long c1=0, ... )

Instead you'd probably want
   data->put(&dataOut[0], dim);
Right?
