The current netcdf daily snapshot (ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/snapshot/netcdf-4-daily.tar.gz) contains a revised version of the dap support for netcdf. It is enabled using --enable-dap and requires libcurl.
For those brave enough to try it, I am specifically looking for the following:
- configuration failures
- execution failures (e.g. seg faults)
- inconsistencies with the libnc-dap implementation
- performance problems vis-a-vis the libnc-dap implementation.
An important note. This version has a logging facility that can sometimes give important information. To turn it on in, say, the sh shell use:
OCLOGFILE="" ; export OCLOGFILE
which will turn on logging and send it to stderr. Alternatively use
OCLOGFILE="filename.log"; export OCLOGFILE
to append log output to a file named filename.log (or whatever you choose). If you report and error, it can sometimes help if you send along
this logfile output.
