re: issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1151
Modify DAP2 and DAP4 code to handle case when _FillValue type is not
same as the parent variable type.
Specifically:
1. Define a parameter [fillmismatch] to allow this mismatch;
default is to disallow.
2. If allowed, forcibly change the type of the _FillValue to match
the parent variable.
3. If allowed Convert the values to match new type
4. Generate a log message
5. if not allowed, then fail
Implementing this required some changes to ncdap_test/dapcvt.c
Also added test cases.
Minor Unrelated Changes:
1. There were a number of warnings about e.g.
assigning a const char* to a char*. Fix these
2. In nccopy.1, replace .NP with .IP "n"
(re PR https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1144)
3. fix minor error in ncdump/ocprint
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.
The problem was that for opendap, it is possible to use keywords
as identifiers
when there is no ambiguity. However, the DAP2
parser lost the case of the identifier used the lower case version.
Fix is to use the actual text of the symbol when it is used as an identifier.
Also added a test case for this (kwcase.*).
Additionally cleaned up some misc. dap2 testing problems.
1. ncdap_test/tst_ncdap3.sh was using an empty test set.
restored the testing of datasets.
2. as a consequence of #1, some tests needed to be updated with minor
tweeks.
3. fix dapmerge to handle multiple DODS_EXTRAS attributes.
4. modify buildattribute to suppress nul characters and terminate
the name at the first nul.
5. clean up various test scripts to remove residual, unused
references to obsolete netcdf-4 translation.
6. export e.g. NCDUMP from test_common.in so that non-top-level
shell scripts can access it.
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.
