This is a follow-on in that the old utf8 code was still being
used in ncgen to convert utf8->utf16 when converting cdl to Java
(see genj.c).
The new code apparently has no utf16 support, but it does have
utf32 support. Converting utf32 -> utf16 can be approximated by
truncating the 32bits to 16 bits, unless the top 16 bits are
not zero. This latter condition is unlikely to be common because
it implies use of some rather obscure characters.
So solution is to convert to utf32 and truncate to 16 bits to
get utf16. An error is reported if the high-order truncated 16
bits are not zero. If we get complaints, then I will figure out
how to convert full utf32 to a utf16 pair.
Also removed the old code from ncgen.
Fix bug where leading backslash digit
in name was not being properly handled.
The reason was that I accidentally attemped to allow \x... and \0...
escapes in identifiers. This make identifiers
with leading escaped digits not work any more.
Also added test case.
Fix bug introduced by [NCF-267].
The bug was that octal constants that had
the highest bit set (e.g. '\200')
were not recognized as proper octal
constants. Fix was to keep as integer
until it was needed as an 8-bit byte.
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.
Added code to verify that enum constants
(and other constants) are consistent
with the type of the variable or
attribute to which they are assigned.
This addresses the ncdump failure.
Ncgen is unable to resolve
ambiguous references to an enum
constant when two different enums
have same econstant name.
Solved by allowing more specific
forms for econstant references.
1. /.../enumname.enumconstname
2. enumname.enumconstname
3. enumconstname
Case 1 is resolved by using the econstant
in the specific enum definition. If none is
found, an error is reported.
Case 2 is resolved by
1. finding an enclosing group with an
enum definition with the specified name
and containing the specified econstant.
If there are more than one, then an error is reported
2. finding all enum definitions in the dataset that have
the specified enum name and contain the specified
econstant. If more than one is found, then an error is reported.
If the above two methods fail, then report an error.
Case 3 is similar to case 2, but all enums, irrespective
of name are used if they contains the specified enum constant.
The ref_tst_econst.cdl test in ncdump is causing ncdump
to fail. So there may be yet some problem.
