In python's netCDF4, these statement work in the same way (as currently in NCDatasets): ```python import numpy as np import netCDF4 f = netCDF4.Dataset('test.nc', 'w') dim_t = f.createDimension('time', None) nctime...

Thanks @meggart, I can confirm that the code in https://github.com/Alexander-Barth/NCDatasets.jl/issues/79#issuecomment-610598730 now works. For this test case: https://github.com/Alexander-Barth/NCDatasets.jl/blob/master/test/test_append2.jl#L30 I had to make a small change in DiskArrays.getsize2, because the NetCDF variable...

Do you also support arrays of string? They have been introduced in NetCDF4. I am getting this error message: ``` julia> include("/home/abarth/.julia/dev/NCDatasets/test/test_variable.jl"); ERROR: LoadError: Type String does not have a...

Even in the current master version of DiskArrays, disk arrays can grow (https://github.com/Alexander-Barth/NCDatasets.jl/issues/79#issuecomment-611495930 ) The question is just whether you need to write this like this ``` ds["w"][1:10,1:15] = ones(10,15)...

I am wondering if it would be possible to make a release candidate first (when ready)? (I am asking because I see some failed test on the current main branch...

OK, I understand. Thank you for your feed-back.

Maybe `--disable-plugins` is necessary for Windows? https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/blob/5df5539576c5b2aa8f31d4b50c4f8258925589dd/.github/workflows/run_tests_win_mingw.yml#L38 (the compilation succeeds with this option)

Indeed, this file is not compiled: ``` $ LANG=C ls -la * .libs/ -rwxr-xr-x 1 abarth abarth 278 Jun 10 23:04 CMakeLists.txt -rwxr-xr-x 1 abarth abarth 2043 Jun 10 23:04...

Inside the docker container from the Julia build system, I run these tests on a bash shell: ``` sandbox:${WORKSPACE}/srcdir/netcdf-c-4.9.0 # echo $target # probably julia specific x86_64-w64-mingw32 sandbox:${WORKSPACE}/srcdir/netcdf-c-4.9.0 # uname...

@WardF The build environment (https://binarybuilder.org/) is in fact a julia package which setups the container and the compiler toolchain and it uses the docker image from alpine linux as a...
