Size of characters in mod_netcdf.F

[arango]

I came across with a NetCDF file that has an 80-characters long attribute name.

:Analysis_or_forecast_generating_process_identifier_defined_by_originating_centre = "MESO NAM Model (currently 12 km)" ;

The previous limit of the generic variable was 40. It is now increased to 100:

!
      character (len=100) :: att_name(Matts)     ! attribute names
      character (len=100) :: dim_name(Mdims)     ! dimension names
      character (len=100) :: var_name(Mvars)     ! variable names
!
!  Generic information about requested current variable.
!
      integer :: n_vdim                 ! number of variable dimensions
      integer :: n_vatt                 ! number of variable attributes
      integer :: var_kind               ! external data type
      integer :: var_Dids(NvarD)        ! dimensions ID
      integer :: var_Dsize(NvarD)       ! dimensions values
      integer :: var_Aint(NvarA)        ! attribute integer values
      real(r8) :: var_Afloat(NvarA)     ! attribute float values
!
      character (len=100)  :: var_Aname(NvarA)   ! Attribute names
      character (len=100)  :: var_Dname(NvarD)   ! dimension names
      character (len=1024) :: var_Achar(NvarA)   ! Attribute char values
