This supports better authorization
handling for DAP requests, especially redirection
based authorization. I also added a new test case
ncdap_tests/testauth.sh.
Specifically, suppose I have a netrc file /tmp/netrc
containing this.
machine uat.urs.earthdata.nasa.gov login xxxxxx password yyyyyy
Also suppose I have a .ocrc file containing these lines
HTTP.COOKIEJAR=/tmp/cookies
HTTP.NETRC=/tmp/netrc
Assume that .ocrc is in the local directory or HOME.
Then this command should work (assuming a valid login and password).
ncdump -h "https://54.86.135.31/opendap/data/nc/fnoc1.nc"
m4 can emit 'sync lines' which tell the toolchain "hey, this code
actually came from this other file over here". Should help prevent
anyone accidentally editing a generated file.
The pnetcdf support was not
properly being used to provide
mpi parallel io for netcdf-3 classic
files. The wrong dispatch table was being
used. The fix was to modify
dfile.c#NC_check_file_type to properly
specify the pnetcdf dispatch table when
use_parallel was true.
extract info from libnetcdf.settings
API is below.
I have made this API public yet
by adding it to netcdf.h. I will
do that when everyone is agreed on the
proper API.
extern const char* nc_settings(const char* key); /*get value of a specific key */
extern const char** nc_settings_all(); /*get all settings in envv format */
extern void nc_settings_reclaim(); /* reclaim all space and clean up */
Envv format is
{key,value}*,NULL
Also added test: nc_test/tst_settings.c
Add a new function called nc_inq_format_extended that
returns more detailed format information (vis-a-vis
nc_inq_format) about an open dataset.
Note that the netcdf API will present the file as if it had
the format specified by nc_inq_format. The true file
format, however, may not even be a netcdf file; it might be
DAP, HDF4, or PNETCDF, for example. This function returns
that true file type. It also returns the effective mode for
the file.
signature: nc_inq_format_extended(int ncid, int* formatp, int* modep)
where
* ncid is the NetCDF ID from a previous call to nc_open() or
nc_create().
* formatp is a pointer to a location for returned true format.
* modep is a pointer to a location for returned mode flags.
Refer to the actual list in the file netcdf.h to see the
currently defined set.
Also added test cases (tst_formatx*).
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.
Add support for embedded NUL characters
in character arrays and added some test cases.
Note that embedded NULs in netcdf-4
string constants are still illegal. This is
because strings are not counted in the netcdf
API, so they are implicitly NUL terminated.
netCDF classic or 64-bit offset files that have a UINT32_MAX flag for
large last record size of a variable that has values larger than 1
byte. This problem had previously been fixed for *writing* such data,
but was only tested with an ncbyte variable. Fixed test to
demonstrate problem and the fix.
More updates to chunking documentation, cosmetic fixes for some
"--option=" documentation that doxygen turns into mdash.
revisions are simpler, and I hope, clearer than the all
previous versions. Part of the code taken from the
ucar.nc2.Range.compose function. Modified to handle edge
cases not handled in the Range.compose function.
