Those fixes are also in the later 4.1.3 netCDF version that you could build with --disable-netcdf-4 to get only the netCDF-3 interfaces and still get the C++ library included. If you get later versions than that, such as the most recent 4.3.0, the C and C++ interfaces are separate, so you will first have to build and install the 4.3.0 library with --disable-netcdf-4, then build and install the legacy netCDF C++ library version 4.2, telling it where to find the netCDF C library. All these more recent library versions are available from http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/netcdf/ or from ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/ --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: IBK-149994 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
