Re: [ferret_users] problem reading in multiple files V6.82

[Ansley Manke <ansley.b.manke@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Carol,
Everyone, Carol and I talked off-line and I think we have tracked this down.  It's a bug in the changes we made for double-precision Ferret, so that if there are more than 1000 variables in the datasets, information that Ferret stores for the variables and their datasets and grids is being lost.

This will be corrected in the next Ferret release.

I just tried running a script that was working fine in V6.7 but I run into a problem with V6.82.  The script reads in multiple files (around 50 files).  When I try to access the first 20 or so files with show data or list var, the file looks empty:

 

yes? sh d 1

     currently SET data sets:

    1> tn250c004.nc

name     title                             I         J         K         L         M         N

 

yes? list/d=1 t_28

**ERROR: variable unknown or not in data set: T_28

 

I can plot or list the data from the files that were read in later in the list fine.
