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"
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.
error occurs after an "exit:" label.
Corrected a dozen Coverity errors (mainly allocation issues, along with a few
other things):
711711, 711802, 711803, 711905, 970825, 996123, 996124, 1025787,
1047274, 1130013, 1130014, 1139538
Refactored internal fill-value code to correctly handle string types, and
especially to allow NULL pointers and null strings (ie. "") to be
distinguished. The code now avoids partially aliasing the two together
(which only happened on the 'write' side of things and wasn't reflected on
the 'read' side, adding to the previous confusion).
Probably still weak on handling fill-values of variable-length and compound
datatypes.
Refactored the recursive metadata reads a bit more, to process HDF5 named
datatypes and datasets immediately, avoiding chewing up memory for those
types of objects, etc.
Finished uncommenting and updating the nc_test4/tst_fills2.c code (as I'm
proceeding alphabetically through the nc_test4 code files).
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*).
