The main requirements for the design of the C++ interface are:
void*
pointers; and
Some of the features of the C++ interface are:
void*
: values are type-checked.
ncredef
or ncendef
calls are needed for
switching between define and data modes. Whenever a mode switch is
required, it happens implicitly.
The header file netcdfcpp.h must be included in source code files using this interface.
This release provides the functionality of netCDF version 3.6.2.
This manual assumes familiarity with Chapters 1 through 4 of the netCDF User's Guide, where the concepts of netCDF dimensions, variables, and attributes are discussed.
