Hello -
I was wondering if the addfile function is able to follow symbolic
links? I have a situation where I have a script that sets up a symbolic
link to a netcdf input file and then calls a NCL script. The NCL script
then turns around and attempts to access the netcdf file via the
symbolic link. However I am getting a fatal error when the NCL script
attempts to perform the addfile. The error message is stating that the
input file, in this case the name coming back is that of the symbolic
link, doesn't exist. The NCL script gets past the addfile if I hard code
the path and file, but crashes when the symbolic link is used. So I was
just wondering if the addfile function is can follow symbolic links. (In
case it makes any difference, this is being running this on a Sun
machine running Solaris and I am using NCAR Graphics version 4.2.1)
Thanks.
Scott
