Dear Elizabeth,
Thanks for your response. I am having to install netcdf on my MacBook Pro.
1) For netcdf-c, it is v4.4.1.1.tar.gz
2) For netcdf-fortran, it is v4.4.3.tar.gz
3) For netcdf-cxx4, it is v4.3.0.tar.gz
Previously, it was a single tar.gz file that had to be installed and one
gets the netcdf directory
I used brew to do the installation but it seems it did not install the
fortran interface as, netcdf.inc was not created.
I followed the direction from Ward to use clang and clang++ in place of gcc
and g++ but the include sub directory was not created. So I could not
proceed to follow the next step (install netcdf-fortran) in his directions.
Note that I have already downloaded the tar.gz files above. I only need to
install them.
Regards
Ben
