[ncl-talk] problem with fbindirread in NCL 6.2.1 (fine with NCL 6.2.0)

[Mary Haley]

Xin,

Without seeing any part of your script, it's hard to tell where the error
is coming from.

Are you using "isfilepresent", by any chance, to check for the presence of
the binary files? If so, it's important to know that this function changed
in V6.2.1, and only works on supported formats like NetCDF, HDF, GRIB,
shapefiles, and HDF-EOS.  To test for the presence of binary (or ASCII)
files, use "fileexists" instead, which was added in V6.2.1.

For more information, see:

If this doesn't fix your problem, then it would help if you post back to
ncl-talk your script and indicate on which line you are getting the error
message.

Thanks,

--Mary
