Description-en: legacy NetCDF C++ interface - development files
NetCDF (network Common Data Form) is a set of interfaces for array-oriented
data access and a freely distributed collection of data access libraries for
C, Fortran, C++, Java, and other languages. The netCDF libraries support a
machine-independent format for representing scientific data. Together, the
interfaces, libraries, and format support the creation, access, and sharing of
scientific data.
.
This version of the netCDF C++ library is provided for backwards compatibility
as a separate package. It was developed before key C++ concepts like templates,
namespaces, and exceptions were widely supported. It's not recommended for new
projects, but it still works. This version of the C++ interface only supports
the "classic" data model from the netCDF-3 release.
.
This package contains headers for the legacy C++ library.
