Constructor Detail

StructureDS

public StructureDS(NetcdfDataset ds,
                   Group group,
                   Structure parentStructure,
                   java.lang.String shortName,
                   java.lang.String dims,
                   java.lang.String units,

Constructor when theres no underlying variable. You better set the values too!

StructureDS

public StructureDS(Group g,
                   Structure orgVar,
                   boolean reparent)

Method Detail

section

public Variable section(java.util.List section)
                 throws InvalidRangeException

Override so it returns a Structure

Specified by:

section in interface VariableIF

Overrides:

section in class Structure

Parameters:

section - List of type ucar.ma2.Range, with size equal to getRank(). Each Range corresponds to a Dimension, and specifies the section of data to read in that Dimension. A Range object may be null, which means use the entire dimension.

Returns:

a new Variable which is a logical section of this Variable.

Throws:

InvalidRangeException
