This may just be my misunderstanding and trying to use the enum data type
correctly, so sorry if I missed an obvious answer!
I created a simple cdl file with two enums:
netcdf enum_test{
types:
byte enum test1{pass=0, fail=1, undefined=2};
byte enum test2{defined=0, undefined=1};
variables:
test1 test1;
test2 test2;
data:
test1=0;
test2=1;
}
I then pass it through ncgen to check the syntax and get the following error
message:
> ncgen enum_test.cdl
ncgen: enum_test.cdl line 4: Duplicate enumeration ids in same scope: /undefined
If I rename the second "undefined" to undefined_2, ncgen is happy but I am
confused.
It's not clear to me why I cannot use the same name value in different enum
types.
Is there something extra I need to do?
Any insights would be welcome.
