6.11 Learn About Endian Parameters for a Variable: NF90_INQ_VAR_ENDIAN

The function NF90_INQ_VAR_ENDIAN returns the endianness settings for a variable in a netCDF-4 file.

Usage

       function nf90_inq_var_endian(ncid, varid, endian)
         integer, intent(in) :: ncid
         integer, intent(in) :: varid
         integer, intent(out) :: endian
         integer :: nf90_inq_var_endian
NCID
NetCDF ID, from a previous call to NF90_OPEN or NF90_CREATE.
VARID
Variable ID.
ENDIAN
NF90_INQ_VAR_ENDIAN will set this to NF90_ENDIAN_LITTLE if this variable is stored in little-endian format, NF90_ENDIAN_BIG if it is stored in big-endian format, and NF90_ENDIAN_NATIVE if the endianness is not set, and the variable is not created yet.

Errors

NF90_INQ_VAR_ENDIAN returns the value NF90_NOERR if no errors occurred. Otherwise, the returned status indicates an error.

Possible return codes include:

NF90_NOERR
No error.
NF90_BADID
Bad ncid.
NF90_ENOTNC4
Not a netCDF-4 file.
NF90_ENOTVAR
Can't find this variable.
