Hi,

I've just realised that I had not recompiled the distribution I have (netcdf
2.3.2 packaged with the HDF3.3r3) since I changed to IRIX 5. Everything had
been running fine with HDF so I assumed netcdf was also ok. as IRIX 5 accepts
IRIX 4 executables and libraries. I'll try recompiling the whole lot and see
what happens.

I will also do a make test. Thanks for the tips. At least I know that I
understand how the code should be written.

Hi there,

I downloaded the standalone unidata library and my program worked like a charm.
So it's possibly that the HDF interface is still buggy, or I've perhaps I have
to do an include on df.h or something. No problems, we never ended up using the
interface at all and so I will now maintain the different versions.

Thanks again for your time.

Dave
