Hi Daniele, I am browsing through your netcdf plugin sources and have a couple of questions about opendap support.
As we talked it is not supported now, but there seems to be support for http/ftp, download and read. I tried to add the opendap support by assuming that http and dods are opendap connections. I got quite far and part of the test works out well. That is mainly because all in the end goes down and is hidden to the NetcdfDataset. But at a certain point I am stuck: In NetCDFSource, method addCoverage, there is a conversion from url to file: GridCoverage gc = Utilities.compute(BaseFileDriver.urlToFile(access.getInput()), ... which obviously breaks, since the url is something like: http://ensemblesrt3.dmi.dk/cgi-bin/nph-dods/data/prudence/monthly/DMI/ECC/precip.CRU.DMI.ECC.nc.gz I am not sure why here the imagestreams are again being used. Is it possible to bring in there the netcdf dataset abstraction? How could this be achieved? I think opendap support is really too important to get rid of it. If you want, I can commit the changes done so far, since they anyways do not break anything for the local files stuff, in case we should find a moment to review them together. Ciao Andrea PS: I had to add the opendap jar to the dependencies to try that out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Geotools-devel mailing list Geotools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geotools-devel
