Re: [netcdf-java] NetCDF to DAP and back again...

Hi Christopher:

NetCDF -> Opendap is done by the TDS opendap server, in the 
thredds.server.opendap package
Opendap -> NetCDF is done by the CDM library classes in the ucar.nc2.dods 
package.

Obviously, these are in the context of client/server subsetting, im not sure if 
you are doing something else.

Hi All,

I'm attempting to do some slightly "unconventional" things with the Java NetCDF library and I was hoping someone might be able to answer a question or two.

In a nutshell:
The goal is to break a netcdf file into three streams (DAS, DDS, and DODS) and then reconstitute them as a NetCDF file. Using the GuardedDatasetImpl, DAS, DDS, and CEEvaluator classes, I've been able to accomplish the "splitting" part of the workflow - resulting in 3 files: the .das, the .dds, and the ".dods".

Now I'm a bit stuck. I'm having a hard time finding a class or classes to help me reconstruct a valid NetcdfFile (or NetcdfDataset) object from the 3 "bits". I can remake the DAS and DDS objects, but I'm not finding a way to regenerate the NetcdfFile itself (along with it's data). This surprises me a little as it seems like this (the reconstruction) would be easier than the "deconstruction"...

Is it possible to do this?  Any help/advice would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Best,
Chris
