The file example.cc #includes the header file "ncvalues.hh" from the
same directory, which #includes the file <netcdf.h> where constants
such as "NC_INT" and "NC_FILL_BYTE" are defined.  In order for the g++
compiler to find the netcdf.h header file, it has to be told which
directory to look in.  This depends on whether you have already
installed the netCDF library yet.  If you haven't installed the
library, you need to use the "-Idirectory" option of g++ to tell it
that the netcdf.h file is in the directory "../libsrc", as in:

  g++ -I../libsrc example.cc ...

but if you have installed netcdf, you need to tell g++ to look where
the netdf.h file is installed, as in

  g++ -I/local/netcdf/include example.cc ...

To link with the netCDF library, you will have to do something similar
to tell g++ where to find the library using the -Ldirectory option and
the -llibrary option, as in

  g++ -I../libsrc example.cc -L../libsrc -lnetcdf -o example

if you haven't installed netCDF or

  g++ -I../libsrc example.cc -L/local/netcdf/lib -lnetcdf -o example

if you have installed it in /local/netcdf/.
