Hi Marcin: 1) The grib reading code in netcdf-java library is completely rewritten for the 4.3 release. Version 4.2 will no longer be supported after 4.3 is released. 2) I can give you some sample files, but better if you collect files from whatever customer you have that wants to use this. Typically the problem is getting the right tables, which depends entirely on the specific file. John > Dear Sir. > > Our company is developing software using parts of NetCDF to read grib > files.
