Fix https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/962
1. remove the --disable-diskless option since it is no
longer needed. Similarly for CMakeLists.txt.
2. Fixed nc4files.c where BAIL and return were mixed
leading to situation where cleanup code was not
being invoked. This probably occurs elsewhere,
but I did not find any specifically.
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.
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*).
contain as little file-type specific info as possible. It
modifies especially libsrc so that all of the netcdf-3 data
that used to be in struct NC is now kept in a separate chunk
of data pointed to by the struct NC. This makes all of
current protocols consistent: netcdf-3, netcdf-4, and dap.
The in-memory files can be made persistent if nc_create is called with
NC_DISKLESS|NC_WRITE flags set. Initial test case also included.
- Modified ncio mechanism to support
multiple ncio packages; this is so we
can have posixio and memio operating
at the same time.
- cleanup up a bunch of lint issues (unused variables, etc).
- Fix NCF-157 to modify DAP code to support
partial variable retrieval.
- Fix of NCF-154 to solve problem of ncgen
improperly processing data lists for variables
of size greater than 2**18 bytes.
- Fix ncgen processing of char variables that have
multiple unlimited dimensions.
- Partly fix Jira issue: NCF-145 (vlen issues).
- Benchmark program nc_test4/tst_ar4_*) requires arguments
and should only be invoked inside a shell
script; fixed so that they terminate cleanly
if invoked with no arguments.
- Fix the Doxygen processing so it will work
with make distcheck.
- Begin switchover to using an alternative to ncio.
- Begin support for in-memory (diskless) files.
