Now that I know how it works, I'm happy with the current situation. But I was
hoping I could just promote the data type of the fill value for unsigned
variables - that way I could treat valid ranges and fill values the same way.
That is, ideally I'd like to do this:
byte Band1(y, x);
Band1:_Unsigned = "true";
Band1:_FillValue = 255s; // short
byte Band2(y, x);
Band2:_Unsigned = "true";
Band2:valid_range = 0s, 254s; // short
But I suspect that wouldn't be backwards-compatible with existing code.
Cheers,
Alex
