Hi All,
Prior to TDS 4.2, you used to be able to change the name of a dataset
without adversely affecting the URL to its FMRC components (Best Time
Series, Constant Forecast, etc.). Although the title is used to
construct the URL, everything up to the final _best.ncd used to be
arbitrary. Now I'm finding that a change in the dataset name will
break the FMRC URL's. For example:
http://oos.soest.hawaii.edu/thredds/dodsC/hioos/model/atm/wrf_oa/WRF_Oahu_Regional_Atmospheric_Model_(1.5km)_best.ncd
The name gets appended to _best.ncd: "WRF Oahu Regional Atmospheric
Model (1.5km)". It used to not matter what went before _best.ncd, and
in fact you could even just use the following URL:
http://oos.soest.hawaii.edu/thredds/dodsC/hioos/model/atm/wrf_oa/_best.ncd
Now if I change that name to something else (e.g. "WRF Oahu Regional
Atmospheric Model"), the old URL breaks because it's now expecting the
following:
http://oos.soest.hawaii.edu/thredds/dodsC/hioos/model/atm/wrf_oa/WRF_Oahu_Regional_Atmospheric_Model_best.ncd
Is this the new way it will behave or is it a bug that can be fixed?
Hi John:
I thought I was fixing a problem. Is there a reason you prefer it the
previous way?
