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
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.
User request to have all orphaned DAP2 attributes kept as netcdf
global attributes. This is primarily a change in the oc code
nplus testcase dataset changes.
Result may be inconsistent with netcdf-Java output.
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).
