Description

Description

The parser for open_ncml does not yet support the full NcML syntax. Here are elements that are not implemented:

  • <cacheVariable>
  • <logicalReduce>
  • <logicalSection>
  • <logicalSlice>
  • <promoteGlobalAttribute>
  • <enumTypedef>
  • <scanFmrc>

Also no support for these attributes:

  • dateFormatMark
  • olderThan
  • tiled

Research direction

Start at the open_ncml parser and inspect how the implemented enumTypedef element is handled. Compare the parser's behavior with the listed missing NcML elements and attributes; done means support is added for the unchecked elements and the dateFormatMark, olderThan, and tiled attributes.
