Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Dave, The available information as bellow: My operating system is Linux The netcdf package and files are: Name : netcdf Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 3.6.3 Vendor: Dag Apt Repository, http://dag.wieers.com/apt/ Release : 1.el5.rf Build Date: Mon 30 Jun 2008 08:54:52 PM BST Install Date: Wed 03 Sep 2008 11:10:52 AM BST Build Host: lisse.leuven.wieers.com Group : Development/Libraries Source RPM: netcdf-3.6.3-1.el5.rf.src.rpm Size : 3248222 License: BSD like Signature : DSA/SHA1, Mon 30 Jun 2008 09:03:15 PM BST, Key ID a20e52146b8d79e6 Packager : Dries Verachtert <dries@xxxxxxxxxxx> URL : http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/ Summary : Libraries for the Unidata network Common Data Form (NetCDF) Description : The Unidata network Common Data Form (netCDF) is an interface for scientific data access and a freely-distributed software library that provides an implementation of the interface. The netCDF library also defines a machine-independent format for representing scientific data. Together, the interface, library, and format support the creation, access, and sharing of scientific data. /usr/bin/ncdump /usr/bin/ncgen /usr/lib64/libnetcdf.so.4 /usr/lib64/libnetcdf.so.4.0.0 /usr/lib64/libnetcdf_c++.so.4 /usr/lib64/libnetcdf_c++.so.4.0.0 /usr/lib64/libnetcdff.so.4 /usr/lib64/libnetcdff.so.4.0.0 /usr/share/doc/netcdf-3.6.3 /usr/share/doc/netcdf-3.6.3/INSTALL /usr/share/doc/netcdf-3.6.3/README /usr/share/info/netcdf-c.info.gz /usr/share/info/netcdf-cxx.info.gz /usr/share/info/netcdf-f77.info.gz /usr/share/info/netcdf-f90.info.gz /usr/share/info/netcdf-install.info.gz /usr/share/info/netcdf-tutorial.info.gz /usr/share/info/netcdf.info.gz /usr/share/man/man1/ncdump.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/ncgen.1.gz /usr/share/man/man3/netcdf.3.gz /usr/share/man/man3/netcdf_f77.3.gz /usr/share/man/man3/netcdf_f90.3.gz Also The nedded HDF5 files are installd in the same directories. I will send you the compuler version once I recived information . I guess part of the solution in the following link however I did not understand it. Can u help in that? http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/netcdf-install/Using.ht ml#Using thanks Mohamed Ali malibec2005@xxxxxxxxx Mob 00447912033240 SChEME Department Faculty of Engineering University of Nottingham Nottingham (NG7 2RD) UK Fax: 0044(0)115 951 4115 -----Original Message----- From: netcdfgroup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:netcdfgroup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dave Allured Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2008 11:31 PM To: netcdfgroup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [netcdfgroup] netcdf Mohamed, Yes I made two mistakes there. That is pretty funny, "movie clip". That is just your OS (Windows?) misinterpreting the .mod extension I think. Please disregard that, the compiler knows what to do with a .mod file. You are right about the name libnetcdf.so.4. That is the dynamic library. libnetcdf.a would be the static version, but it is not currently part of your installation. You can link with either one, provided that a few other libraries are installed correctly. The linker should be smart enough to find either one with the same two command options "-L/usr/lib64 -lnetcdf". You might need to sym link libnetcdf.so.4 to the name libnetcdf.so; I am not knowledgeable on the details of library naming rules. Anyone? More seriously, as Tom Green mentioned earlier, the format of .mod files is not standardized and compiler dependent. Now I am thinking that the message "is not a valid module information file" is the symptom of using a different compiler than what was used to build your netcdf library. Please show us identification and version information about your compiler and netcdf version and computer platform. Also, did you download precompiled Netcdf binaries from Unidata, or build them yourself from the source distribution? If the latter, which compiler was used? --Dave Mohamed Mohamed wrote: > > Dave > > I found the netcdf.mod file in the same location > ("/usr/include/netcdf.mod ). > I noticed that its type is movie clip. > Is it correct type?. > > Also I noticed.
