Fixed in revision 3069. Should be in snapshot of 3/16/2013 Problem was that the NC_create code was not checking for the NC_CLASSIC_MODEL mode flag in deciding what dispatch table to use. This meant that it was then defaulting to use the default format, and if that was changed to e.g. NC_FORMAT_NETCDF4, then it would try to create a netcdf-4 format file, even if NC_CLASSIC_MODEL mode flag was set. =Dennis Heimbigner Unidata Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: CIV-552078 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
