triggers the following error:

I always thought this was something wrong with my setup. Worked around by using code idea from http://au.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/28556-read-netcdf/content/read_netcdf.m and changing line

d = array.copyToNDJavaArray();

to

if v.getSize == 1 d = array.copyTo1DJavaArray; else d = array.copyToNDJavaArray(); end

I don't know if the comment "% this fails if the variable has no java shape/no dimension was assigned" still applies.

@sspagnol a fix is suggested here : https://github.com/aodn/imos-user-code-library/pull/15

ggalibert commented 8 years ago

@sspagnol thanks for your input though, this is relevant for nctoolbox, not ncParse from the imos user code library. I can pass this on to nctoolbox github.
