Hi Max, I saw your support question and tried to duplicate the problem you reported: > BTW, I'm getting an ncdump segmentation fault on the file > nf_test/ftst_types2.nc. As far as I can tell, it's > related to the fact that the compound type in this file > contains an array. h5dump seems to process the file > no problem. However, when I run ncdump built from the new netCDF-4.0 distribution, it seems to work fine: $ ncdump ftst_types2.nc netcdf ftst_types2 { types: compound cmp_w_ary { int A(2, 3) ; } // cmp_w_ary } Are you sure you're using the newly built ncdump rather than an old netCDF-3 ncdump? --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: ODF-774270 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
