Specific changes:
1. Add dap4 code: libdap4 and dap4_test.
Note that until the d4ts server problem is solved, dap4 is turned off.
2. Modify various files to support dap4 flags:
configure.ac, Makefile.am, CMakeLists.txt, etc.
3. Add nc_test/test_common.sh. This centralizes
the handling of the locations of various
things in the build tree: e.g. where is
ncgen.exe located. See nc_test/test_common.sh
for details.
4. Modify .sh files to use test_common.sh
5. Obsolete separate oc2 by moving it to be part of
netcdf-c. This means replacing code with netcdf-c
equivalents.
5. Add --with-testserver to configure.ac to allow
override of the servers to be used for --enable-dap-remote-tests.
6. There were multiple versions of nctypealignment code. Try to
centralize in libdispatch/doffset.c and include/ncoffsets.h
7. Add a unit test for the ncuri code because of its complexity.
8. Move the findserver code out of libdispatch and into
a separate, self contained program in ncdap_test and dap4_test.
9. Move the dispatch header files (nc{3,4}dispatch.h) to
.../include because they are now shared by modules.
10. Revamp the handling of TOPSRCDIR and TOPBUILDDIR for shell scripts.
11. Make use of MREMAP if available
12. Misc. minor changes e.g.
- #include <config.h> -> #include "config.h"
- Add some no-install headers to /include
- extern -> EXTERNL and vice versa as needed
- misc header cleanup
- clean up checking for misc. unix vs microsoft functions
13. Change copyright decls in some files to point to LICENSE file.
14. Add notes to RELEASENOTES.md
The nvars, ndims, and natts fields on the NC_HDF5_FILE_INFO struct are
never set. The nvars field is read, but since it is never written,
the value is always zero.
HDF5 does not permit a variable to have no_fill == TRUE if the variable type is variable length. This includes types NC_STRING and NC_VLEN.
The test above also excludes user-defined types which I'm not sure is needed or not.
In nc4 mode, the variables were ignoring the default "database" fill/no_fill mode set via a call to nc_set_fill(). This sets the no_fill mode on the variable to match the default database setting at the time the variable is defined.
This consists of a persistent attribute named
_NCProperties plus two computed attributes
_IsNetcdf4 and _SuperblockVersion.
See the 'Provenance Attributes' section
of docs/attribute_conventions.md for details.
The var struct has a 'dim' field which was not being used
Instead, the dimids field would always search for the dim
with the matching dimid. For db with large numbers of dims,
this could be a significant time sync.
Modified code to always set var-dim[i] when var->dimids[i] was
set (if the dim existed at that point). Then use the var->dim
field instead of var->dimids and search whenever requested.
All var->dim accesses are protected by asserts that verify
non-null and that the var->dim[]->dimid == var->dimids[].
In non-classic netcdf-4 models, it is allowable to have
large numbers of dims and vars. In many operations, the
entire list of dims or vars is searched for a dim/var matching
a specific name which results in *lots* of strncmp or strcmp
calls.
If we add a hash field to the var and dim structs similar to what
has already been done for the netcdf-3 formats, then we can hash the
name being searched for and numerically compare that value with
the var/dim hash value. If they match, then do a more expensive
strncmp call to ensure that the names truly match.
1. Added check to libsrc4/nc4var.nc_def_var_extra to
check that the no specified chunks size is greater than
the dimension size.
2. Added test to nc_test4/tst_chunks.c
re: e support ZCL-340681 and CPW-270700
HDF4 supports compression (and chunking)
but the chunking was not being recorded
for HDF4 files. So, I modified the necessary
files to support HDF4 chunking.
error occurs after an "exit:" label.
Corrected a dozen Coverity errors (mainly allocation issues, along with a few
other things):
711711, 711802, 711803, 711905, 970825, 996123, 996124, 1025787,
1047274, 1130013, 1130014, 1139538
Refactored internal fill-value code to correctly handle string types, and
especially to allow NULL pointers and null strings (ie. "") to be
distinguished. The code now avoids partially aliasing the two together
(which only happened on the 'write' side of things and wasn't reflected on
the 'read' side, adding to the previous confusion).
Probably still weak on handling fill-values of variable-length and compound
datatypes.
Refactored the recursive metadata reads a bit more, to process HDF5 named
datatypes and datasets immediately, avoiding chewing up memory for those
types of objects, etc.
Finished uncommenting and updating the nc_test4/tst_fills2.c code (as I'm
proceeding alphabetically through the nc_test4 code files).
to clean up resources properly on failure.
Refactored doubly-linked list code for objects in the libsrc4 directory,
cleaning up the add/del routines, breaking out the common next/prev
pointers into a struct and extracting the add/del operations on them,
changed the list of dims to add new dims in the same order as the other
types, made all add routines able to optionally return a pointer to the
newly created object.
Removed some dead code (pg_var(), nc4_pg_var1(), nc4_pg_varm(), misc. small
routines, etc)
Fixed fill value handling for string types in nc4_get_vara().
Changed many malloc()+strcpy() pairs into calls to strdup().
Cleaned up misc. other minor Coverity issues.
many cleanups to fix compiler warnings, streamline iteration over objects
in HDF5 file when opening the file, and generally straightening out the code
to be cleaner and simpler.
Tested on Mac OS/X with gcc 4.8 and OpenMPI (which uses clang).
Also added ability capability for netCDF-4 to write and read NIL
values for string type attributes and variables, so these can be read
if used in HDF5 files.
Include are additions to CMakeLists files to reflect new tests.
with parallel-netcdf, to fully implement parallel-netcdf support for
other functions, and to prevent a hang in hdf5 from an eary return in
an nc4_put_vara() call. Also fixed an nccopy bug when
nc_inq_var_deflate() returns defalate_level of 0, but says the variable
is deflated.
