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.
Never mind rename. Just help the user as best you can. This isn't hard. At 2:02 PM -0600 7/2/10, Russ Rew wrote:
Hi Dave,Is there a method to find the filename of an open netcdf file from the ncid. The method ncinquire does not provide it.No, there's no way to determine the name with which a file was opened from the netCDF C, Fortran, or C++ API's. If there was a way to get the file name, it would be wrong if the file was renamed by another process after it was opened. Maybe that's the reason no such function exists. Similarly, I think it's also not possible to determine the name of the file associated with a file descriptor returned by the Unix open() call (please correct me if I'm wrong about this). --Russ _______________________________________________ netcdfgroup mailing list netcdfgroup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxFor list information or to unsubscribe, visit: http://*www.*unidata.ucar.edu/mailing_lists/
