That ncid value would be correct in netCDF-4, even for a classic format file,
because the top 16 bits of the ncid identify the open file and the bottom 16
bits
identify the group within the open file, in case it is a netCDF-4 file with
groups.
The ncid is just supposed to be an opaque file handle used temporarily for open
files
and groups.
I tried your program, adding a definition of a dimension, and it seemed to work
fine:
program writeNETCDF
use netcdf
implicit none
character*50 :: fname
integer :: iret,ftn
integer :: dimid
fname = 'test.nc'
iret = nf90_create(path=trim(fname),cmode=nf90_clobber, &
ncid=ftn)
print*, iret, ftn
iret = nf90_def_dim(ftn, "n", 10, dimid)
iret = nf90_close(ftn)
end program writeNETCDF
After compiling and running the program, ncdump showed the file was a classic
format netCDF file with the expected contents:
support$ gfortran -I/usr/local/include wcr.f90 -L/usr/local/lib -lnetcdff
-lnetcdf -o wcr
support$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib ./wcr
0 65536
support$ ls -l test.nc
-rw-rw-r-- 1 russ ustaff 44 Feb 14 11:26 test.nc
support$ ncdump -k test.nc
classic
support$ ncdump test.nc
netcdf test {
dimensions:
n = 10 ;
}
Please let us know if this doesn't work for you.
