Dear Beáta, I have answered to you at StackOverflow: You are declaring your variables twice, once as static: public static Variable time; and other in the local scope of your switch: Variable time = ncfile.addVariable(...); and therefore you are "losing" the initialized Object in the local scope.Replace the local declaration by just the assigning the initialized Object to the static variable declaration:
time = ncfile.addVariable(...); Regards Antonio S. Cofiño P.S.: I have already answered to your question at StackOverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50964120/how-can-i-initialize-the-netcdf-varables-as-global-variables-to-avoid-java-lang On 22/06/18 08:43, Beáta Szabó-Takács wrote:
Dear All,I would like to write a netCDF4 file in Java based on https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/current/netcdf-java/tutorial/NetcdfWriting.html.

}catch(IOExceptionex){ ex.printStackTrace(); } }But after I run the code I get java.lang.NullPointerException at ucar.nc2.NetcdfFileWriter.write(NetcdfFileWriter.java:939). I tried to solve it with define global variables size e.g public static Variable time = new Variable(); but it is not possible. Could you please informe me how I should fix this issue?Thank you for your help in adavnce!
