Class GradsBinaryGridServiceProvider

java.lang.Object

ucar.nc2.iosp.AbstractIOServiceProvider

ucar.nc2.iosp.grads.GradsBinaryGridServiceProvider

All Implemented Interfaces:

IOServiceProvider

public class GradsBinaryGridServiceProvider
extends AbstractIOServiceProvider

IOSP for GrADS Binary data files. This IOSP only handles the binary formatted grids, most other GrADS data types can be read directly through other IOSPs. Notes jcaron Apparently we need the control file (.ctl), which then references the data file (.dat) Dont see any test data - added to cdmUnitTest/formats/grads Possible File leaks - remove from standard IOSP's until we can resolve this. Also need to override release, reacquire

Method Detail

isValidFile

public boolean isValidFile(RandomAccessFile raf)
                    throws java.io.IOException

• not an ensemble definded by EDEF/ENDEDEF (need examples)

Parameters:

raf - RandomAccessFile to check

Returns:

true if a valid GrADS grid file of the type listed above

Throws:

java.io.IOException - problem reading file

getFileTypeId

public java.lang.String getFileTypeId()

Get the file type id

Returns:

the file type id
