For the record: Thomas provided a test case and both ncdf and RNetCDF have been rebuilt with support for files > 2Gb. Updated versions are now on the CRANextras repository. On Sun, 30 Dec 2007, Prof Brian Ripley wrote: > The netcdf code is rather silly: it uses 64-bit versions of seek etc when

The netcdf code is rather silly: it uses 64-bit versions of seek etc when building a DLL, not on Windows. I can rebuild it using 64-bit seek, but could you please send me (privately) a test case? On Sat, 29 Dec 2007, Thomas Lumley wrote: > > Has anyone successfully used R to access netCDF file

[Rd] large netCDF files under Windows.

2007-12-29 Thread Thomas Lumley
Has anyone successfully used R to access netCDF files larger than 2Gb under Windows? With the version of the ncdf package that Brian Ripley provides for CRAN extras I get an assertion failure with a 12Gb file, but not a 1Gb subset of it. The same 12Gb file is ok with ncdf on Mac OS X (32bit R)
