2008 Unidata NetCDF Workshop for Developers and Data Providers > Porting and Testing the NetCDF C/Fortran/C++ Libraries
17.1 Testing the NetCDF Libraries
The netCDF C/Fotran/C++ libraries are built and tested daily on a wide
variety of platforms.
- The snapshot only needs to successfully build on Linux, so it may
contain portability problems. We (try to) fix all portability
problems before each full release.
- The automatic testing of the default build includes Linux, AIX, IRIX,
Mac, SunOS, Cygwin, HP-UX (netcdf-3 only) and Visual Studio builds.
- Various C compilers are tested: gcc (several versions), Intel, PG,
AIX, Sun, HPUX, and IRIX.
- Various Fortran compilers are tested: g95, gfortran (pre and post
4.2), ifort (9.1 and 10.1), PGI, AIX, IRIX, HPUX, and even g77.
