re: github issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1111
One of the less common use cases for the in-memory feature is
apparently failing with HDF5-1.10.x. The fix is complicated and
requires significant changes to libhdf5/nc4memcb.c. The current
setup is detailed in the file docs/inmeminternal.dox.
Additionally, it was discovered that the program
nc_test/tst_inmemory.c, which is invoked by
nc_test/run_inmemory.sh, actually was failing because of the
above problem. But the failure is not detected since the script
does not return non-zero value.
Other Changes:
1. Fix nc_test_tst_inmemory to return errors correctly.
2. Make ncdap_tests/findtestserver.c and dap4_tests/findtestserver4.c
be generated from ncdap_test/findtestserver.c.in.
3. Make LOG() print output to stderr instead of stdout to
avoid contaminating e.g. ncdump output.
4. Modify the handling of NC_INMEMORY and NC_DISKLESS flags
to properly handle that NC_DISKLESS => NC_INMEMORY. This
affects a number of code pieces, especially memio.c.
The use of the following version-specific curl flags
is not always properly wrapped or aliased using
config.h HAVE_CURL... ifdefs.
# CURLOPT_USERNAME is not defined until curl version 7.19.1
# CURLOPT_PASSWORD is not defined until curl version 7.19.1
# CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD is not defined until curl version 7.16.4
-- aliased as needed to CURLOPT_SSLKEYPASSWD
# CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE is not defined until curl version 7.10.7
-- aliased as needed to CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE
# CURLOPT_CHUNK_BGN_FUNCTION is not defined until curl version 7.21.0
-- not used in our code
Specific changes:
1. Add dap4 code: libdap4 and dap4_test.
Note that until the d4ts server problem is solved, dap4 is turned off.
2. Modify various files to support dap4 flags:
configure.ac, Makefile.am, CMakeLists.txt, etc.
3. Add nc_test/test_common.sh. This centralizes
the handling of the locations of various
things in the build tree: e.g. where is
ncgen.exe located. See nc_test/test_common.sh
for details.
4. Modify .sh files to use test_common.sh
5. Obsolete separate oc2 by moving it to be part of
netcdf-c. This means replacing code with netcdf-c
equivalents.
5. Add --with-testserver to configure.ac to allow
override of the servers to be used for --enable-dap-remote-tests.
6. There were multiple versions of nctypealignment code. Try to
centralize in libdispatch/doffset.c and include/ncoffsets.h
7. Add a unit test for the ncuri code because of its complexity.
8. Move the findserver code out of libdispatch and into
a separate, self contained program in ncdap_test and dap4_test.
9. Move the dispatch header files (nc{3,4}dispatch.h) to
.../include because they are now shared by modules.
10. Revamp the handling of TOPSRCDIR and TOPBUILDDIR for shell scripts.
11. Make use of MREMAP if available
12. Misc. minor changes e.g.
- #include <config.h> -> #include "config.h"
- Add some no-install headers to /include
- extern -> EXTERNL and vice versa as needed
- misc header cleanup
- clean up checking for misc. unix vs microsoft functions
13. Change copyright decls in some files to point to LICENSE file.
14. Add notes to RELEASENOTES.md
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).
ncdump -h "https://54.86.135.31/opendap/data/nc/fnoc1.nc"
When a .dodsrc file is present, and
specifies user name and password,
it is being ignored after the first time.
Fix required a major rewrite of ocrc.c because
it was mishandling a number of .dodsrc entries.
