Re: [netcdf-java] Getting a NetcdfFile object from a dods url

the url part is fine. The issue has to do with url escaping
and especially with escaping of the constraint.
For those of you running non-tds servers, the question is:
do you unescape the query part or not upon receiving the
incoming url.

If I try to access this through code, using http my log file fills up with msgs which suggests I can't use http (or something else needs setting ;-)):
I believe that the only way to do this via the Java API is to open the unconstrained URL (http://...../thredds/dodsC/vault/..._cf.nc) and then use the API to request the hyperslab you want rather than trying to open the constrained URL.

If I try to use dods, I get a lot more msgs, it accesses the file, outputs the header data but fails on the data (when the call becomes http again for 
the DAS?):

I am accessing this through inFile = NetcdfDataset.openFile(inFileName,
null);

I hope I haven't broken any rules for the length of this msg, hopefully
there's sufficient info that someone recognises the problem.
