nc_inq_varndims

[Chad Saxon, Contractor]

Hi all I am trying to getting the number of dimensions per variable and
I
seem to have run into a wall.. in my netcdf code I have the following:



nc_inq_ndims(ncid, &ndims); //# of dimensions

  nc_inq_nvars(ncid, &nvars); //# of variables

  nc_inq_natts(ncid, &natts); //# of attributes



 //for loop to print out all the dimension names

  for(int i = 0; i < ndims; i++)

    {

      nc_inq_dimname(ncid, i, dim_name);

      std::cout << "dimname[" << i << "] " << dim_name << endl;

    }

//print out all the variable names

  for(int i = 0; i < nvars; i++)

   {

     nc_inq_varname(ncid, i, var_name);

     std::cout << "varname[" << i << "] " << var_name << endl;

   }

//print out all the dimensions per variable

  for(int i = 0; i < nvars; i++)

   {std::cout << "test" << endl;

****    nc_inq_varndims(ncid, i, ndimsp); <-- I get a seg fault here

    std::cout << "test" << endl;

    std::cout << "varname[" << i << "] " << ndimsp << endl;

   }



why does my nc_inq_varndims give me a seg fault? All my declarations are
correct and the loop above it worked just fine. Can someone tell me then
how
to get the number of dimensions per variable and how to access those
dimensions? 



Thanks for your time..
