Created Jira issue NCF-213 I believe this bug has been around almost forever. The key is that we have never tested the output of an ncdump -s by re-running it thru ncgen. The problem is that ncgen sees the incoming special attribute but does not remove it as a real attribute. =Dennis Heimbigner Unidata Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: MRZ-466810 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Urgent Status: Closed
