Discussion

GETNCOPTS retrieves the current value of the “ncopts” variable as discussed in the Error Handling section of the NetCDF User’s Guide. This variable defines the level of error reporting by the netCDF functions.

Note: GETNCOPTS is only valid for the NetCDF functionality included in the optional PV‑WAVE HDF interface.

Example

@hdf_startup
@hdf_common
; Set ncopts to 2 (NC_VERBOSE).
SETNCOPTS, 2
ncopts = GETNCOPTS() 
INFO, ncopts 
; PV-WAVE prints: NCOPTS LONG = 2 
ncid = NCOPEN('ofile.nc', NC_NOWRITE)
status = NCCLOSE(ncid) 

; Now set nvopts to 0 (no output).
SETNCOPTS, 0
PRINT, GETNCOPTS() 
ncid = NCOPEN('ofile.nc', NC_NOWRITE)
status = NCCLOSE(ncid)
