5.6 ncgen4

The ncgen4 tool is an experimental version of ncgen that is capable of producing netcdf-4 files. It operates essentially identically to ncgen, except that generation of FORTRAN code is not supported.

The CDL input to ncgen4 may include data model constructs from the netcdf-4 data model. In particular, it includes new primitive types such as unsigned integers and strings, opaque data, enumerations, and user-defined constructs using vlen and compound types. The ncgen4 man page should be consulted for more detailed information.
