The thredds-test server now has some password protected datasets
that can be used to test DAP2 authorization support.
The general location is

````
and specifically:

````
This PR replaces old testcases with ncdap_test/testauth.sh.
This testcase allows us to test use of the .dodsrc file and .netrc file
and embedded user+pwd.
As part of this, I had to create a program (ncdap_test/pathcvt.c)
that is essentially the equivalent to cygpath. Given a path in
windows, unix, msys or cygwin format, it converts it to the
equivalent format in one of those four cases. So it can be used
to convert a cygwin path to a windows path, for example. This is
needed in testpathcvt and testauth to make sure that the paths
in .daprc (e.g. the reference to .netrc) are of the proper
format.
Misc. Other Changes:
1. Fix some memory leaks in libdap2
2. Setting the env variable CURLOPT_VERBOSE allows tracking of curl
operations.
3. Make tst_charvlenbug be conditional on NC_VLEN_NOTEST.
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1451
The situation with the various DAP (and other) remote test
servers is currently in a state of flux. For example, Unidata
admin is planning to forcibly shift the remote test server to
remotetest.unidata.ucar.edu soon. In addition, the server
test.opendap.org has shown some recent instability.
The result is that various DAP (and byterange) tests can fail
unexpectedly. This is an irritant to users and reveals nothing
about test sucess or failure.
Solve by modifying tests to report server inaccessibility and
otherwise pretend to succeed.
This puts an onus on Unidata to detect such server failures, but
will not cause users to see spurious failures. [Note. Do similar
fix for netcdf-java]. The check is:
1. export SETX=1 to cause all the shell scripts to trace
2. search the log files for the phrase "WARNING" (in upper case)
and see if it is complaining about not finding a server.
Misc. Changes
-------------
1. Added a pingurl program to see if a server was up.
2. modified some test case url targets
This is a follow up to PR https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1173
Sorry that it is so big, but leak suppression can be complex.
This PR fixes all remaining memory leaks -- as determined by
-fsanitize=address, and with the exceptions noted below.
Unfortunately. there remains a significant leak that I cannot
solve. It involves vlens, and it is unclear if the leak is
occurring in the netcdf-c library or the HDF5 library.
I have added a check_PROGRAM to the ncdump directory to show the
problem. The program is called tst_vlen_demo.c To exercise it,
build the netcdf library with -fsanitize=address enabled. Then
go into ncdump and do a "make clean check". This should build
tst_vlen_demo without actually executing it. Then do the
command "./tst_vlen_demo" to see the output of the memory
checker. Note the the lost malloc is deep in the HDF5 library
(in H5Tvlen.c).
I am temporarily working around this error in the following way.
1. I modified several test scripts to not execute known vlen tests
that fail as described above.
2. Added an environment variable called NC_VLEN_NOTEST.
If set, then those specific tests are suppressed.
This should mean that the --disable-utilities option to
./configure should not need to be set to get a memory leak clean
build. This should allow for detection of any new leaks.
Note: I used an environment variable rather than a ./configure
option to control the vlen tests. This is because it is
temporary (I hope) and because it is a bit tricky for shell
scripts to access ./configure options.
Finally, as before, this only been tested with netcdf-4 and hdf5 support.
re: github issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1111
One of the less common use cases for the in-memory feature is
apparently failing with HDF5-1.10.x. The fix is complicated and
requires significant changes to libhdf5/nc4memcb.c. The current
setup is detailed in the file docs/inmeminternal.dox.
Additionally, it was discovered that the program
nc_test/tst_inmemory.c, which is invoked by
nc_test/run_inmemory.sh, actually was failing because of the
above problem. But the failure is not detected since the script
does not return non-zero value.
Other Changes:
1. Fix nc_test_tst_inmemory to return errors correctly.
2. Make ncdap_tests/findtestserver.c and dap4_tests/findtestserver4.c
be generated from ncdap_test/findtestserver.c.in.
3. Make LOG() print output to stderr instead of stdout to
avoid contaminating e.g. ncdump output.
4. Modify the handling of NC_INMEMORY and NC_DISKLESS flags
to properly handle that NC_DISKLESS => NC_INMEMORY. This
affects a number of code pieces, especially memio.c.
Some parameters like stringlength actually affect a dimension
named maxStrlen. So, add some aliasing so maxstrlen can be
specified as a parameter and as an alias for stringlength.
The affected parameters (case insensitive):
stringlength has alias maxstrlen
stringlength_<varname> has alias maxstrlen_<varname>
Also:
1. added a test case in ncdap_test/testurl.sh
2. added note to documentation
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
to get TOPSRCDIR that avoids use of
TEST_ENVIRONMENT and makes automake and cmake
more consistent.
Basic assumption is that abs_top_srcdir (and
cmake equivalent) is known at 'make check' time,
so we can use -D flag to compile a program that
has the value of abs_top_srcdir embedded into it
as a constant.
We define two new files in ncdap_test:
1. t_srcdir.h -- provide a gettopsrcdir() function
to return the topsrcdir value to the test program.
2. topsrcdir.c -- a program that calls gettopsrcdir()
and prints its output (minus any newline) on stdout.
This is used in .sh files to get topsrcdir.
