I don't have time to read through all your code to try to figure out what you are asking. Can you please distill this down to a simple question and/or...

Where does the error message "Classic mode NetCDf does not support unsigned integer types: LST will be written as type shor" come from? It is being emitted when you read...

Can't reproduce on OSX with github master using netcdf4-python version: 1.4.2 HDF5 lib version: 1.10.4 netcdf lib version: 4.6.1 numpy version 1.15.0 Can you run the netcdf4-python tests (by running...

May be to https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/770 ?

Looks like the data file is malformed (the header says it has more records that it actually has - see https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1263).

Here's the pure python writer: https://github.com/scipy/scipy/blob/master/scipy/io/netcdf.py. I don't see any special metadata that is written to identify the writer, but it might be in there somewhere.

Not surprising they are not answering - they are not supposed to be reading their .gov emails.

What's your netcdf-c lib version (`netCDF4.__netcdf4libversion__`)? You need >= 4.4.1.2 for this to work.

Seems to work for NETCDF3_CLASSIC, NETCDF4_CLASSIC, NETCDF4_64BIT, NETCDF4 - just not NETCDF3_64BIT_DATA (using 4.5.1-dev)

Will you create a netcdf-c issue, or should I?
