The last time I tried to use netcdf-fortran on Windows (early 4.1.x series,
using gfortran) it did not support opening files larger than 2 GB. Have there
been reports saying that has been fixed?
I support an EPA program that reads WRF data, and need to support both Linux
and Windows – but I can deliver just the executable to Windows users. I would
be willing to buy the ifort Windows compiler, if I knew it worked for large
files.

Have you tried building netcdf-fortran with cmake on windows? It does work, I
believe...

Dear developers of NETCDF,
The only answer I got was the hint of Elizabeth (Thank You!). However her
suggested way over WSL is not possible for me for different reasons.
What is needed under Win10 is a script running directly on the Windows
command shell (analogously as it exists under Linux),
where the User only has to provide the names of the desired (already installed)
C-compiler and Fortran-compiler,
finally resulting in an NETCDF-installation for running application programs
compiled with these compilers on Windows.
NETCDF provides a data exchange tool between machines on different platforms.
However, the intended universality of data exchange between machines on
different platforms remains limited,
if the installation of NETCDF on popular platforms is difficult or actually (as
here) not supported.

So far, this is not fulfilled for Fortran95 applications under Win10.
In my experience the “typical” developer prefers to improve his software inside
(and in the limits of) his well-known development ambient (e.g. Linux, C++, …).

Have you considered WSL+Ubuntu? This might make your entire project easier.

Dear developers of NETCDF,
I need install NETCDF with Fortran-interface on my WIN10-PC (64-bit) in order
to use NETCDF-routines from Fortran90-codes.
As the first step, I have already installed successfully the NETCDF-C library
for NETCDF-4.7.3 on the Win10-PC.
What is still missing, is the Fortran-interface required to use that NETCDF-C
library from Fortran-codes compiled with the Intel-19.0.5 Ftn-compiler.
I am no specialist for NETCDF nor complicated builds.
Details:
As a first step I downloaded the precompiled file netcdf-4.7.3-NC4-64.exe
from your website.
That precompiled file had been created using the “cl” C-compiler built-in in
the VisualStudio2017, which is also present on my PC.
The installation of the precompiled NETCDF-C library was successful:
I was able to compile and run (with the cl-compiler) a simple C-testprogram
delivered by NETCDF, which generated a netcdf-file,
and I was able to view its contents by means of ncdump on the WIN10-PC.
I used in a cmd-window the command:
cl -I"C:\netcdf-4.7.3\include" simple.c
"C:\netcdf-4.7.3\lib\netcdf.lib"
That worked. Fine!
On my Win10-PC the Intel-19.0.5 Fortran compiler is installed.
(It works together with the also installed VisualStudio2017, and for all I know
uses the linker of the cl -compiler built-in in the VisualStudio 2017)
and I need now the NETCDF Fortran-interface for running my Fortran90 codes
compiled with this Intel-Ftn-compiler on my Win10-PC.
That means, I finally need something like
a precompiled binary Ftn-module file netcdf.mod
or the Ftn-sourcecode of the Ftn-module netcdf.f90
or an include-file for the Ftn-code netcdf_Ftn.h
(Side-remark: Microsoft provides for its MPI-10.0 under Windows as the
Fortran-interface for invoking MPI-routines the 2nd kind of file.
I compile it together with my Fortran CFD-source code.)
Can you help me?
Greetings
Michael
