Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Hi, Can I get the spreadsheet to load data which is available via a remote data server other than the spreadsheet. This remote data server is the usual VisAD RemoteServerImpl which provides the data via RemoteDataReferences. I've tried using the spreadsheet to access a URL such as: rmi://servername/servicename/remotedatareferencename Looking at the documentation, this should work if the remote server is a spreadsheet. Can I modify my remote data server to provide the data in a way that the spreadsheet is expecting? As an alternative, should I consider writing some external java code to access the remote server, and linking it to the spreadheet as per 10.2.3.2.3 "Linking to External Java Code" of the Developer's Guide? (... or maybe there are other options?). [I don't want to save the data to a file such as netCDF because the data is changing rapidly... many times a minute] Thanks in advance, James
