The general problem is that under Visual Studio, we are seeing
a number of undefined reference and other scoping errors.
The reason is that the code is not properly using Visual Studio
_declspec() declarations.
The basic solution is to ensure that when compiling the code itself
one needs to ensure that _declspec(dllexport) is used. There
are several sets of macros to handle this, but they all rely
on the flag DLL_EXPORT being define when the code is compiled,
but not being defined when the code is used via a .h file.
As a test, I modified XGetOpt.c to build properly. I also
fixed the oc2 library to properly _declspec things like ocdebug.
I also made some misc. changes to get all the tests to run
if cygwin is installed (to get bash, sed, etc).
Misc. Changes:
* Put XGetOpt.c into libsrc and copy at build time
to the other directories where it is needed.
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1352
When nc4info.c encounters an _NCProperties attribute
with a version number it does not recognize, it does not
show it correctly.
Solution chosen is to arrange so that accessing the attribute
returns the raw value of the Attribute from the file. This way,
even if the version is unrecognized, it will return something
usable.
The changes were primarily to never attempt to parse the value
of _NCProperties until actually required. Which since they
are currently not used means that parsing never occurs.
Also modified ncdump/tst_fileinfo.sh to include some extra testing
I tested the original failure by changing the value of NCPROPS to 3.
However, there is no way to test this at build time.
Misc. Changes
* Inlined the provenance info in the NC_FILE_INFO_T structure
* Centralized stuff from elsewhere into include/nc_provenance.h
Misc. Unrelated Changes
* Removed/turned off some misc debug output left on by accident
* Fix CPPFLAGS name error in libhdf5/Makefile.am
stored in the _NCProperties attribute to allow two things:
1. capture of additional library dependencies (over and above
hdf5)
2. Recognition of non-netcdf libraries that create netcdf-4 format
files.
To this end, the _NCProperties format has been extended to be
and arbitrary set of key=value pairs separated by commas.
This new format has version = 2, and uses commas as the pair separator.
Thus the general form is:
_NCProperties = "version=2,key1=value,key2=value2..." ;
This new version is accompanied by a new ./configure option of the form
--with-ncproperties="key1=value1,key2=value2..."
that specifies pairs to add to the _NCProperties attribute for all
files created with that netcdf library.
At this point, what is missing is some programmatic way to
specify either all the pairs or additional pairs
to the _NCProperties attribute. Not sure of the best way
to do this.
Builders using non-netcdf libraries can specify
whatever they want in the key value pairs (as long
as the version=2 is specified first).
By convention, the primary library is expected to be the
the first pair after the leading version=2 pair, but this
is convention only and is neither required nor enforced.
Related changes:
1. Fixed the tests that check _NCProperties to properly operate with version=2.
2. When reading a version 1 _NCProperties attribute, convert it to look
like a version 2 attribute.
2. Added some version 2 tests to ncdump/tst_fileinfo.c and
ncdump/tst_fileinfo.sh
Misc Changes:
1. Fix minor problem in ncdap_test/testurl.sh where a parameter to
buildurl needed to be quoted.
2. Minor fix to ncgen to swap switches -H and -h to be consistent
with other utilities.
3. Document the -M flag in nccopy usage() and the nccopy man page.
4. Modify a test case to use the nccopy -M flag.
to remove cruft and to remove unused site tests
and make the tests somewhat more understandable.
Also did a fix to libdispatch/dwinpath to convert
relative paths to absolute paths. This will, I hope,
take care of some windows path problems when using
$srcdir in shell scripts.
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
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.
