Dear Jiangang Xiong, I dont know why you cannot use version 3.5 library; it should be backwards compatible with any application that worked with 3.3. we do not have a prebuilt 3.3 version. Please try the version 3.5. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Julie Caron" <address@hidden> To: "J.G.Xiong" <address@hidden> Sent: Thursday, May 30, 2002 8:25 AM Subject: Re: Re: netcdf for win32 > Dear Jiangang Xiong, > O.k. the JCaron in Unidata is John Caron.

To do your own source build, get this zip file (these make files are for Microsoft Visual C 6 and Digital Fortran 6, you will have to modify for a different environment).

Another library produced by myself according to the TXT file is not the same like the prebuit library.

But I cannot find prebuilt version3.3 library. So I send you my library(but version 3.3), hoping you test if it is correct. > > > > Would you please help me? > > > > Best regards, > > > > Jiangang Xiong > > > > Wuhan Instisute of Physics and Mathematics, > > The Chinese Academy of Sciences, > > Wuhan P.O.Box 71010, > > Wuhan 430071,China > > Tel:86-27-87867797 Fax:86-27-87872238 > > Email:address@hidden > > ---------------------------------------------------- > > > > > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Julie Caron NCAR CGD/CMS > Associate Scientist P.O.
