The errors you are getting, such as

> /lib/libnetcdf_c++.a(netcdf.o): In function 
> `_ZNK16NcTypedComponent9get_spaceEl':
> /home/koshiro/netcdf-3.6.2/cxx/netcdf.cpp:563: undefined reference to 
> `___gxx_personality_sj0'
> /home/koshiro/netcdf-3.6.2/cxx/netcdf.cpp:563: undefined reference to 
> `__Unwind_SjLj_Register'
> /home/koshiro/netcdf-3.6.2/cxx/netcdf.cpp:586: undefined reference to 
> `__Unwind_SjLj_Unregister'

are not related to netCDF, but to something wrong with the way you are
trying to compile and link your program.  You can google the phrase

  undefined reference to ___gxx_personality_sj0

to see what I mean about not being related to netCDF.  You would get
similar errors if you used gcc instead of g++, or if you used a
different C++ compiler than what you used to build the library in
cygwin.  You might also get these errors if you didn't install
everything needed for g++ development in your cygwin environment.

If you have built the 4.1.1 version of the library, you might see how
the C++ examples are compiled and linked, and follow that pattern.
Unfortunately the examples are compiled and linked before the
libraries are installed, so the compiling and linking flags use
a complicated utility named "libtool" and get the libraries from
directories where they were first built.

Another thing you could try is the 4.1.1 version of the "nc-config"
utility, to show how the library flags need to appear on the link
line.  For example, if your netCDF utilities are installed in
/usr/local/lib/bin, you could run

  /usr/local/lib/bin/nc-config --libs

and it would show the options for specifying library directories and
libraries in the right order.

However, there might still be extra C++ runtime libraries that you
would need to specify to your C++ compiler, if it wasn't installed to
know where those are, such as "-lg++".  And you must be using the same
g++ compiler you used to create the libnetcdf_c++ library, to get the
"name mangling" right.

I don't know much more about the C++ netCDF library, so I hope this
helps.
