This would be very useful, since the C++ interface was designed before templates, exceptions, and namespaces were standardized or widely available. It would be most useful to us if you would base your interface on the version of the C++ interface in netCDF 3.5.1-beta13, currently available from ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-beta.tar.Z since this has some fixes for C++ problems in older versions. The ideal C++ interface would mimic the OOP design of the Java version 2 netCDF interface: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf-java/ But that's pretty ambitious. Nevertheless, the Java design and implementation, due to John Caron, has proved very useful. --Russ _____________________________________________________________________ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/russ
