That is a useful tip to consider, thanks!

Niels,
Yes, it would interesting to have the optionto specify the explicit
collection of filesand technically Idon't see any limitation on
featureCollection to developthis feature. In fact, the
featureCollection creates this collection internally.
Meanwhile what you can do it's justto create a directorywith the
specific files inside or symbolic links inside to the ones you want
and uses the example 1 which appears on the doc.
<featureCollection name="MyCollectionOfFiles" featureType="GRIB2"
path="grib/collection/files">
<collection name="MyCollectionOfFiles"
spec="/directory/with/symbolink/links/*\.grib2$"/>
</featureCollection>
Another option it could be explicit add files into the regular
expression into the specs attribute. I never tried this because I'm
not good with regexp but also it would be a problem if the list of
files it's too long.

Antonio

Hello,
I have a question regarding FeatureCollections
(http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/current/tds/reference/collections/FeatureCollections.html)
The XSD scheme only allows specifying a regular expression to pick
files from the file system. We are investigating the possibility to
implement a way to specify a list of files instead (without a
consistent naming system). I'm just trying to figure out if this is
even possible - since we are bound by the existing XSD scheme, right?
If in any way possible, what would be involved?
Kind Regards,
Niels
