Hi James, > What is the best way to get the values of a compound attribute? Is there > a way to get the values of each field in a compound attribute separately? Values of a compound attribute are accessed atomically. It's not possible to read or write member fields separately. That's a constraint of the undelying HDF5 library. This is the C-based netCDF-4 library; I don't know whether the netCDF-Java library provides access to individual fields, and there's no one here to ask right now. If your question is about the netCDF-Java API, I'll find out and get back to you, but you might get a faster response to that from address@hidden --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: DVS-605789 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
