First off-- please excuse my rusty fortran and netcdf terminology. I'm a
sysadmin not a scientific programmer :)
I'm having an issue where gfortran 4.1.2 isn't properly populating an array
of derived types. When I take the derived type out of the equation and use a
multi-dimensional array of the same dimensions the issue goes away. gfortran
4.4 doesn't have this issue but I'm stuck with 4.1.2 on RHEL5 since I'm
using netcdf from EPEL.
Here's a link to a directory containing the source for a sample application
that reproduces the issue, and the associated netcdf data file that I
massaged to remove everything I thought was irrelevant to the test case:
http://userpages.umbc.edu/~aaronk/66190/. The sample application populates
the array of derived data types as well as a separate multi-dimensional
array and prints the data points for one time step for both.
The output from the application compiled with gfortran 4.1.2 is below. The
output from any other fortran compiler I've found (including gfortran 4.4)
shows the values in the two columns matching:
imeas_ind: 20 time_len: 10

Is this an issue with netcdf, gfortran or the code?
Many thanks in advance!
