General usage information

NetCDF is a self-describing, machine-independent scientific data format. This package consists of libraries for C for reading and manipulating data in this format.

The following environmental variables have been defined:

You will probably wish to use these by adding the following flags to your compilation command (e.g. to CFLAGS in your Makefile):

and the following flags to your link command (e.g. LDFLAGS in your Makefile):

NOTE: For quite some time (since about version 4.2 of NetCDF) the Fortran and C++ interfaces to NetCDF have been split off into separate packages.

If you wish to use the Fortran interface, you must "module load" the appropriate netcdf-fortran module and add the appropriate flags for that library, as well as those for this C NetCDF library. Please see the web page for the netcdf-fortran module as well.

Similarly, if you wish to use the C++ interface, you must "module load" the appopriate netcdf-cxx module and add the appropriate flags for that library, as well as those for this C NetCDF library. Please see the web page for the netcdf-cxx module as well.
