Download and Installation Instructions

Windows:

   Download one of following self-extracting files: 
       32-bit Windows: matlab_cdf341_win32.exe
       64-bit Windows: matlab_cdf341_win64.exe
   Download leap second table: CDFLeapSeconds.txt
   Double-click the downloaded file to extract the files included 
       in the patch to a directory.
   Invoke Matlab and issue the following command at the Matlab prompt:
        addpath '<patch_install_dir>'
        For example, if the patch is installed under C:\matlab_cdf341_patch,
        the command should be
          addpath 'C:\matlab_cdf341_patch'
   Use Matlab as usual (e.g. data=cdfread('test.cdf','combinerecords', true)).

Mac OS X:

   Download one of the the following compressed tarfiles:
       Mac OS X Intel 32-bit: matlab_cdf341_mac32.tar.gz
       Mac OS X Intel 64-bit: matlab_cdf341_mac64.tar.gz
       Mac OS X PPC 32-bit: matlab_cdf341_ppc32.tar.gz
   Download leap second table: CDFLeapSeconds.txt 
   Move the Matlab-CDF-Patch directory in the downloaded file to the 
       directory you want the patch to be installed under.
   Extract the files in the patch using the following command:
        tar zxvf <downloaded compressed tar file>
   Set environment variable CDF_LEAPSECONDSTABLE to the downloaded leap second
       table. The step is necessary when a new leap second is added and the
       shared library is not upgraded. This environment variable needs to be
       set when running CDF modules under MATLAB. 
       setenv CDF_LEAPSECONDSTABLE <...>/CDFLeapSeconds.txt (C/TCsh)
       export CDF_LEAPSECONDSTABLE=<...>/CDFLeapSeconds.txt (Bourne/Bash)
              where <...> is the directory that holds CDFLeapSeconds.txt
   Invoke Matlab and issue the following command at the Matlab prompt:
        addpath '<patch_install_dir>' 
        For example, if the patch is installed under /Users/davidh, the 
        command should be
          addpath '/Users/davidh/matlab_cdf341_patch'
   Use Matlab as usual (e.g. data=cdfread('test.cdf','combinerecords', true)).

Linux / Solaris:

   Download one of the following compressed tar files:
       Linux 32-bit: matlab_cdf341_lin32.tar.gz
       Linux 32-bit: matlab_cdf341_lin64.tar.gz
       Solaris/Sparc 64-bit: matlab_cdf341_sol64.tar.gz
   Download leap second table: CDFLeapSeconds.txt
   Go to the directory where you want the patch to be installed under.
   Extract the files in the patch using the following command:
        tar zxvf <downloaded compressed tar file> 
   Set environment variable CDF_LEAPSECONDSTABLE to the downloaded leap second
       table. The step is necessary when a new leap second is added and the
       shared library is not upgraded. This environment variable needs to be
       set when running CDF modules under MATLAB..
       setenv CDF_LEAPSECONDSTABLE <...>/CDFLeapSeconds.txt (C/TCsh)
       export CDF_LEAPSECONDSTABLE=<...>/CDFLeapSeconds.txt (Bourne/Bash)
              where <...> is the directory that holds CDFLeapSeconds.txt
   Invoke Matlab and issue the following command at the Matlab prompt:
        addpath '<patch_install_dir>'
        For example, if the patch is installed under /home/davidh, the
        command should be
          addpath '/home/davidh/matlab_cdf341_patch'
   Use Matlab as usual (e.g. data=cdfread('test.cdf','combinerecords', true)).
