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.
Folks, Most folks on Windows systems who want to do scientific computing in Python will use the Enthought distribution (http://www.enthought.com/products/epd.php) or the Python(x,y) distribution (http://www.pythonxy.com). Both include the wonderful NetCDF4-python library (http://code.google.com/p/netcdf4-python/), but sadly, neither one has the built-in opendap support that is possible with NetCDF4. (The Enthought packages for Linux and Mac *do* have OPeNDAP support in the NetCDF4 library, just not on Windows). I know there are other ways to get opendap support in Python, but it seems like this should be relatively easy fix. In the Python(x,y) distribution, I see these .dlls: HDF5_HLDLL.DLL HDF5DLL.DLL NETCDF.DLL SZ.DLL ZLIB1.DLL Has anyone solved this problem? It would be great to get NetCDF4 working with OpenDAP for Python users on Windows. Thanks, -- Dr. Richard P. Signell (508) 457-2229 USGS, 384 Woods Hole Rd. Woods Hole, MA 02543-1598
