Hi everybody!
I built netcdf4 on a Linux machine. It works fine with netcdf files.
However hdf5 files are not read. I created a simple hdf5 file using
hdf5 version 1.8 and tried to open it with nc_open(), I got error
"-51". Any ideas why it is not working?
Thanks,
Ali

Ed: Thanks! beta1 works fine and passes all the tests with my python
module. However, ncdump appears to be broken - every netcdf-4 file I
try results in something like this:
ncdump: test.nc: HDF error
It seems to work fine with netcdf-3 files however.
