20050126: Problem whith nf90 parameters in libnetcdf

Sophie,

Those parameters are used to allocate static arrays during compilation
and should not be modified at runtime.

If you want to use different values, then you will have to set them and
then recompile and reinstall the netCDF package.

Subject: Problem whith nf90 routines in libnetcdf
From: TYTECA Sophie <address@hidden>

Hello,

I use nf90 routines of libnetcdf library (3.5.1) in f90 fortran code.
In my program, I use several parameters(nf90_max_dims,nf90_max_vars,etc..)

I put "use netcdf" in my program but ,when I run my program, the values
of these parameters are OLD values:
100,2000,etc...

I verify the netcdf.inc file , the values are 512,4096,etc..  the NEW values

BUT, in the source code  netcdf_constants.f90 (in directory f90) , the
values are:
 integer, parameter, public :: &
    nf90_max_dims     = 100,    &
    nf90_max_attrs    = 2000,   &
    nf90_max_vars     = 2000,   &
    nf90_max_name     = 128,    &
    nf90_max_var_dims = nf90_max_dims

and this file is included in netcdf.f90 for compilation

Did I make something wrong when I used these parameters?

NB: In the source code  3.6 it is the same thing!

thanks for your help
