CMake support also provides for Visual-Studio based netCDF-C builds. The
development/integration environment is Windows 7 (64-bit) with Visual
Studio 10
Good to know.
Some time ago I built a special Visual Studio 10 made netCDF 4.2.0,
available here
http://nco.sourceforge.net/nco_qt_msvc.shtml
The goal was to support a "native" Windows NCO build.
One thing that I wanted to avoid was to build Visual Studio projects by
"hand", so I ended up using this framework called "Qt", that automatically
generates
a Visual Studio project from a Qt project, a simple text format with the
list of files , similar to Makefile.am from GNU autoconfig, that I think is
the same idea used by CMake.
I had to do some minor changes to the library source code in order to build
with Visual Studio 10.
I ended up porting mostly everything (libraries, tests, tools) with the
exception of ncgen (some compiler error related to the generation of a NAN,
I think)
I will be happy to share what I did with the netCDF team, if you are
interested.
But, it seems that, with this new release , everything will just compile
with Visual Studio 10 ? Meaning no source code changes ?
Will this build include the other libraries generally used by netCDF
applications?
1) UDunits2
2) OpenDap
I see that OpenDap (OC 2) is included in the netcdf-4.2.1.1 distro, but not
UDunits2.
There have been requests to have these libs as "native" compiled in Windows,
and I have been trying to port them to Visual Studio 10, but if this would
be available from Unidata, that would be fantastic !

Good afternoon,
Our first official netCDF-C release with CMake integration will be
version 4.3. There isn't an official release date set yet, but it
should be soon. In addition to easier packaging, CMake support also
provides for Visual-Studio based netCDF-C builds. The
development/integration environment is Windows 7 (64-bit) with Visual
Studio 10, and supports both 32 and 64-bit based builds.
Have a great afternoon!

Hi all,
I just played around with netCDF from the developers' branch and was
very pleased to find CMake integrated. Now,packaging netCDF is *so*
much simpler. For example, I just created a Debian package for dev in
no time. Thanks for adopting this!
I'm now curious to know if there are plans to release netCDF with this
functionality anytime soon. This would help me decide whether I'd be
worthwhile fixing the package for the pre-CMake package or not.
Cheers,
Nico
