help using NcML...

[John Caron]

Hi Tom: 

1) You need to get the namespace right on the NcML

2) spaces, not commas between the dimensions:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<netcdf xmlns="http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/namespaces/netcdf/ncml-2.2">

 <dimension name="channel" length="8000" />
 <dimension name="xtrack" length="60" />
 <dimension name="track" length="200" />

 <variable name="Radiances" shape="track xtrack channel" type="float" />
 <variable name="Latitude" shape="track xtrack" type="float" />
 <variable name="Longitude" shape="track xtrack" type="float" />
 <variable name="channel" shape="channel" type="float" />
</netcdf>

Im not sure why this would fail, if you can recreate, send me the details

If this is the problem on chunked data, i will have a fix for that (eventually). Sorry its taking so long...
