Unable to create netCDF file [message #75582]

Any idea why I cannot create a netCDF file using tilde expansion?

IDL> id = NCDF_CREATE('~/test.ncd', CLOBBER = clobber)
% NCDF_CREATE: Unable to create the file, ~/test.ncd. (NC_ERROR=-31)

I thought it was a generic problem with tilde expansion, but it works
for plain files (the file text.txt exists and contains 'test').

IDL> openw, iunit, '~/test.txt', /get_lun
IDL> printf, iunit, 'test'
IDL> free_lun, iunit

NetCDF file creation works if I provide the fully-qualified path.

Version info:

IDL Version 8.0.1, Mac OS X (darwin x86_64 m64). (c) 2010, ITT Visual Information Solutions
