Re: [thredds] Plus sign and global attributes.

Hi Phil:

I will automatically remove any "+" and replace with "and" in any GRIB names. This will be in latest 4.5.0. That should obviate any need for ncml.

Hey John,

Sorry for the delay.  We had an issue with one of our main disk systems
that required most of my time today and yesterday... I've had this draft
going in between different delays. The name does get changed to

  "Volumetric_soil_moisture_frozen_%2b_liquid_layer_between_two_depths_below_surface_layer" without any NcML.  With NcML it gets turned into both "Volumetric_soil_moisture_frozen_%2b_liquid_layer_between_two_depths_below_surface_layer" _and_ "Volumetric_soil_moisture_frozen_and_liquid_layer_between_two_depths_below_surface_layer".  I have attached a .zip file that has screen shots of the different parts of the OPeNDAP form.

*Files in the attached .zip file:*
*
*

*Plus - XML - service.txt* - Text file with the services for the dataset.
*Plus - XML (no NcML) - datasetScan.txt* - Text file with the
<datasetScan> and no NcML
*Plus - XML (NcML Added) - datasetScan.txt* - Text file of the

datasetScan with NcML added to fix the "+" in the name

*Plus - OPeNDAP Form (no NcML) Global Attributes.00.png* - Image with

global attributes from datasetScan without NcML.

*Plus - OPeNDAP Form (no NcML) - Variable Listing.00.png* - Image with
variable listing without NcML
*Plus - OPeNDAP Form (NcML added) Global Attributes.00.png* - Image with

global attributes from datasetScan with NcML

*Plus - OPeNDAP Form (NcML Added) - Variable Listing.00.png* - Image of

first variable with NcML added (same OPeNDAP form)

*Plus - OPeNDAP Form (NcML Added) - Variable Listing.01.png* - Image of

variable with NcML listed a second time (same OPeNDAP form)

If there is anything else, please let me know.  This is a dataset that
has a featureCollection as well. Here is the text from that...

   <!-- NARR-A - PoR Feature Collection Aggregation

   <featureCollection name="NARR-A - Feature Collection"
     path="gribFC/NARR-A-FC"

     <tdm startup="true" trigger="allow" />

     <gribConfig datasetTypes="Best Files" />

   </featureCollection>

This comes right after the service in the *Plus - XML - service.txt

*file.  It too has the same issue with the plus as the other

datasetScans have.  Please let me know if there is anything else I can
supply you from my end.  I wish there was an easy way to get you to view
this service from your place.  :-(  Again, I am very sorry for the
delayed response, but our disk systems decided to go on vacation without
me.

Thanks John!!!

             *should have worked. Check you are looking at the variable

    Im guessing that the real name is something like:

    "Volumetric_soil_moisture___frozen_+_liquid_layer_between___two_depths_below_surface___layer"

    no longer

       "Volumetric_soil_moisture___frozen_+_liquid"

    as it was in 4.2.

    can you double check?
