Hello,
I sent an email asking about how to link a particular file with a button
added to the toolbar on the top of the spreadsheet. I added the following to
SpreadSheet.java in the ss package:
addToolbarButton("GO", "Open small.v5d", "loadMyDataSet", true,
Toolbar);
public void loadMyDataSet() throws VisADException, RemoteException {
try {
DisplayCells[0][0].addDataSource("data/small.v5d");
}
catch (VisADException exc) {
System.out.println("Could not load file small.v5d into the
SpreadSheet");
}
catch (RemoteException exc) {
System.out.println("Could not load file small.v5d into spreadsheet");
}
}
It compiles normally, but when I open up VisAD, I don't see my changes. Do
you know if I am supposed to do something in addition to just opening up a
VisAD SpreadSheet to see my changes?
Thanks!

Yes, VisAD has a text adapter that can deal with csv files that
essentially contain data to be made into a single VisAD Data object.
You must, however, add two lines at the beginning of the file to define
the math type of the resulting VisAD Data object, and the order of the
parameters in the file. The data may be comma, tab, or space-delimited.
All this is described in the readme file at:
http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/~billh/README.text
(the latest copy of this file can be found in the VisAD source code
under: visad/data/text/README.text -- the code was recently updated to
permit better handling of time formats).
