The code for handling character constants
in datalists in ncgen has some problems.
1. It failed on large constants
2. It did not handle e.g. var = 'a', 'b', ...
in the same way that ncgen3 did.
3. The code for generate.c and genchar.c needed
some refactoring to make it a little simpler
(but not simple).
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.
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.
Columbia server does not serve up proper
opendap DDS replies. The Dataset {...} name
changes depending on if the request has certain
kinds of constraints.
Code for a hack was not being used, so restore it.
The fix is to effectively ignore differences in
Dataset node names if the code is coming from
columbia.edu.
2. [NCF-278]
The ncgen code is improperly typing int64 integer constants
as uint64.
3. [NCF-279]
Empty string constants were not being properly
filled when their target array is length 1 or more.
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.
- 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.
