About the Software
NetCDF (network Common Data Form) is a set of software libraries
and machine-independent data formats that support the creation, access, and sharing of array-oriented
scientific data. - Homepage: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/
Usage
Softenv or Module defines some variables which point at the library home directory.
For clusters using softenv, use soft-dbq to determine it's name, then use it to add a link option to your build. You may see something like this (the output has been edited for brevity):
$ soft-dbq +netcdf-4.1.3-Intel-13.0.0 . . . Name: +netcdf-4.1.3-Intel-13.0.0 Description: @types: Library/IO @name: netcdf @version: 4.1.3 @build: Intel-13.0.0 @internal: @external: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf @about: NetCDF is a set of software libraries and self-describing, machine-independent data formats that support the creation, access, and sharing of array-oriented scientific data. Flags: none Groups: none Exists on: Linux . . . PATH = ${PATH}:/usr/local/packages/netcdf/4.1.3/Intel-13.0.0/bin netcdf_HOME = /usr/local/packages/netcdf/4.1.3/Intel-13.0.0 . . . $ ls /usr/local/packages/netcdf/4.1.3/Intel-13.0.0/lib libnetcdf.a libnetcdff.la libnetcdf.la pkgconfig libnetcdf_c++.a libnetcdff.so libnetcdf.so libnetcdf_c++.la libnetcdff.so.5 libnetcdf.so.7 libnetcdff.a libnetcdff.so.5.1.0 libnetcdf.so.7.1.1
The libraries are used at link time by the compiler, so the following options could be used:
-L${netcdf_HOME}/lib -lnetcdf
For clusters using module, use the module disp command to determine the location of the netcdf path and then add it to your build options:
$ module disp netcdf/4.2.1.1/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------- /usr/local/packages/Modules/modulefiles/apps/netcdf/4.2.1.1/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0: . . . module-whatis Description: NetCDF (network Common Data Form) is a set of software libraries and machine-independent data formats that support the creation, access, and sharing of array-oriented scientific data. - Homepage: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/ conflict netcdf module load hdf5/1.8.12/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0 prepend-path LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/packages/netcdf/4.2.1.1/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0/lib prepend-path MANPATH /usr/local/packages/netcdf/4.2.1.1/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0/share/man prepend-path PATH /usr/local/packages/netcdf/4.2.1.1/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0/bin prepend-path PKG_CONFIG_PATH /usr/local/packages/netcdf/4.2.1.1/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0/lib/pkgconfig setenv LHPC_ROOTNETCDF /usr/local/packages/netcdf/4.2.1.1/INTEL-140-MVAPICH2-2.0 setenv LHPC_VERSIONNETCDF 4.2.1.1 . . . $ ls $LHPC_ROOTNETCDF/lib libnetcdf.a libnetcdf.la libnetcdf.so libnetcdf.so.7 libnetcdf.so.7.2.0 pkgconfig
