2. Fixed plugin building (nc_test4/hdf5plugins)
to be done properly by cmake and automake.
4. Duplicated part of the nc_test4 filter test code
in examples/C
An incomplete and untested set of hooks exist
for OS-X in nc_test4/findplugins.in. They need testing.
2. Factored out the parameter string parsing for ncgen and nccopy
int libdispatch/dfilter.c + include/ncfilter.h
3. Allow a parameter string to use constant types other than
unsigned int. See docs/filters.md for details.
4. Moved the old content of include/netcdf_filter.h into include/netcdf.h
and removed include/netcdf_filter.h as no longer needed.
5. Force the test filter (bzip2) in nc_test4/filter_test to
be built using BUILT_SOURCES.
Primary change is to cleanup code and remove duplicated code.
1. Unify the rc file reading into libdispatch/drc.c. Eventually extend
if we need rc file for netcdf itself as opposed to the dap code.
2. Unify the extraction from the rc file of DAP authorization info.
3. Misc. other small unifications: make temp file, read file.
4. Avoid use of libcurl when reading file:// because
there is some kind of problem with the Visual Studio version.
Might be related to the winpath problem.
In any case, do direct read instead.
5. Add new error code NC_ERCFILE for errors in reading RC file.
6. Complete documentation cleanup as indicated in this comment
https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/472#issuecomment-325926426
7. Convert some occurrences of #ifdef _WIN32 to #ifdef _MSC_VER
generates garbage. This in turn interferes with using .netrc
because the garbage user+pwd can will override the
.netrc. Note that this may work ok sometimes
if the garbage happens to start with a nul character.
2. It turns out that the user:pwd combination needs to support
character escaping. One reason is the user may contain an '@' character.
The other is that modern password rules make it not unlikely that
the password will contain characters that interfere with url parsing.
So, the rule I have implemented is that all occurrences of the user:pwd
format must escape any dodgy characters. The escape format is URL escaping
of the form %XX. This applies both to user:pwd
embedded in a URL as well as the use of HTTP.CREDENTIALS.USERPASSWORD
in a .dodsrc/.daprc file. The user and password in .netrc must not
be escaped. This is now documented in docs/auth.md
The fix for #2 actually obviated #1. Now, internally, the user and pwd
are stored separately and not in the user:pwd format. They are combined
(and escaped) only when needed.
to docs/filter.md
2. Moved location of filter.md in documentation
3. Add a template file as the basis for building new filters.
4. Did some test case cleanup
