[Rd] large netCDF files under Windows.

[Thomas Lumley]

Has anyone successfully used R to access netCDF files larger than 2Gb under Windows?

With the version of the ncdf package that Brian Ripley provides for CRAN extras I get an assertion failure with a 12Gb file, but not a 1Gb subset of it. The same 12Gb file is ok with ncdf on Mac OS X (32bit R) and on Linux(64bit R).
