[ncl-install] Error while using pre-compiled NCL binaries

[Sagar Kashid]

Mary,

Thank you so much for your reply.
I do agree with your judgement that *"underlying Fortran routine that this
function is based on also has the same restriction"*, but one of my
colleague asked me to do following source code modification to get rid off
this problem as follows,







*path: in ncl source code directory   "  /ni/src/lib/nfp/wrfwpsW.c   "line
number 34 NrmQuark *field;  int FIELD_LEN=9;  ****************this is the
line where he asked me to change number 9 to 40 or 45?  char
c_field[FIELD_LEN+1]; *

Do you also think that this would help me to solve the issue? As it
requires to install NCL from the source code

Kindly suggest
