Detailed Description

Holds a one-dimensional collection of DAP2 data types.

Holds a one-dimensional array of DAP2 data types. This class takes two forms, depending on whether the elements of the vector are themselves simple or compound objects. This class contains common functionality for the List and Array classes, and should rarely be used directly.

When each element of the class is a simple data type, the Vector is implemented as a simple array of C types, rather than as an array of BaseType data types. A single private ``template'' BaseType instance (_var) is used to hold information in common to all the members of the array. The template is also used as a container to pass values back and forth to an application program, as in var().

If the elements of the vector are themselves compound data types, the array is stored as a vector of BaseType pointers (see the libdap class BaseTypePtrVec). The template is still used to hold information in common to all the members of the array, but is not used to pass information to and from the application program.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Vector() [1/3]

libdap::Vector::Vector ( const string &  n,
BaseType v,
const Type t,
bool  is_dap4 = false 
)

The Vector constructor.

The Vector constructor requires the name of the variable to be created, and a pointer to an object of the type the Vector is to hold. The name may be omitted, which will create a nameless variable. The template object may not be omitted.

Parameters
nA string containing the name of the variable to be created.
vA pointer to a prototype for elements.
tThe type of the resulting Vector object, from the Type enum list. There is no DAP2 Vector object, so all uses of this method will be from the Array class. This defaults to dods_null_c.

◆ Vector() [2/3]

libdap::Vector::Vector ( const string &  n,
const string &  d,
BaseType v,
const Type t,
bool  is_dap4 = false 
)

The Vector constructor.

The Vector server-side constructor requires the name of the variable to be created, the dataset name from which this Vector is created, and a pointer to an object of the type the Vector is to hold. The name may be omitted, which will create a nameless variable. The template object may not be omitted.

Parameters
nA string containing the name of the variable to be created.
dA string containing the dataset name from which the variable is being created.
vA pointer to a prototype for elements.
tThe type of the resulting Vector object, from the Type enum list. There is no DAP2 Vector object, so all uses of this method will be from the Array class. This defaults to dods_null_c.

Member Function Documentation

◆ add_var()

void libdap::Vector::add_var ( BaseType v,
Part  p = nil 
)
virtual

Add the BaseType pointer to this constructor type instance.

Propagate the name of the BaseType instance to this instance. This ensures that variables at any given level of the DDS table have unique names (i.e., that Arrays do not have their default name ""). If v's name is null, then assume that the array is named and don't overwrite it with v's null name.

Note
As is the case with Array, this method can be called with a null BaseType pointer.
Parameters
vThe template variable for the array
pThe Part parameter defaults to nil and is ignored by this method.

◆ buf2val()

unsigned int libdap::Vector::buf2val ( void **  val)
virtual

Copies data from the Vector buffer.

Copy data from a numeric or string arry to a buffer. This method will allocate memory if the handle val references NULL, otherwise it assumes the handle references enough storage for the data to be copied.

Never call this method for constructor types Structure, Sequence or Grid.

When reading data out of a variable that has been constrained, this method assumes the N values/bytes of constrained data start at the beginning of the object's internal buffer. For example, do not load an entire Vector's data using val2buf(), constrain and then use this method to get the data. Unless your constraint starts with the [0]th element, the result will not be the correct values.

In the case of a Vector of Str objects, this method will return a pointer to an array of C++ std::string objects.

Note
It's best to define the pointer to reference the data as 'char *data' or some other non-void type and then call this method using '..->buf2val((void**)&data)'. You must free the storage once you're done using 'delete[] data'.
It's also important to initialize the handle to NULL. That is your code should declare the handle like this: 'char *data = 0' if it expects buf2val() to allocate memory. With most compilers, the pointer may be null the first time the code is run, but often not on subsequent calls.
Returns
The number of bytes used to store the array.
Parameters
valA pointer to a pointer to the memory into which the class data will be copied. If the value pointed to is NULL, memory will be allocated to hold the data, and the pointer value modified accordingly. The calling program is responsible for deallocating the memory indicated by this pointer.
Exceptions
InternalErrThrown if val is null.

◆ check_semantics()

bool libdap::Vector::check_semantics ( string &  msg,
bool  all = false 
)
virtual

Compare an object's current state with the semantics of its type.

This function checks the class instance for internal consistency. This is important to check for complex constructor classes. For BaseType, an object is semantically correct if it has both a non-null name and type.

For example, an Int32 instance would return FALSE if it had no name or no type defined. A Grid instance might return FALSE for more complex reasons, such as having Map arrays of the wrong size or shape.

This function is used by the DDS class, and will rarely, if ever, be explicitly called by a DODS application program. A variable must pass this test before it is sent, but there may be many other stages in a retrieve operation where it would fail.

Returns
Returns FALSE when the current state violates some aspect of the type semantics, TRUE otherwise.
Parameters
msgA returned string, containing a message indicating the source of any problem.
allFor complex constructor types (Grid, Sequence, Structure), this flag indicates whether to check the semantics of the member variables, too.

◆ clear_local_data()

void libdap::Vector::clear_local_data ( )
virtual

Remove any read or set data in the private data of this Vector, setting read_p() to false. Essentially clears the _buf, d_str, and d_compound_buf of any data. Useful for tightening up memory when the data is no longer needed, but the object cannot yet be destroyed.

On exit: get_value_capacity() == 0 && !read_p()

◆ compute_checksum()

void libdap::Vector::compute_checksum ( Crc32 checksum)
virtual

include the data for this variable in the checksum DAP4 includes a checksum with every data response. This method adds the variable's data to that checksum.

Parameters
checksumA Crc32 instance that holds the current checksum.

Implements libdap::BaseType.

Definition at line 858 of file Vector.cc.

◆ d4_ops()

bool libdap::BaseType::d4_ops ( BaseType b,
int  op 
)
virtualinherited

Evaluator a relop for DAP4.

This method is used by the filter expression evaluation code in DAP4. Each of the 'data type' classes that support relops must overload this method. In an expression of the form arg1 op arg2, this object is arg1, the parameter 'b' is arg2 and op is the relational operator.

Note
I used the same relop codes for DAP4 as in the DAP2 parser/scanner which makes for some coupling between them, but cuts way down on the duplication of the evaluator logic, which is somewhat involved.
Parameters
bThe second argument in the relational expression
opThe infix relational operator
Returns
True if the expression is true, False otherwise.

◆ dataset()

string libdap::BaseType::dataset ( ) const
virtualinherited

Returns the name of the dataset used to create this instance.

A dataset from which the data is to be read. The meaning of this string will vary among different types of data sources. It may be the name of a data file or an identifier used to read data from a relational database.

Definition at line 358 of file BaseType.cc.

◆ deserialize() [1/2]

bool libdap::Vector::deserialize ( UnMarshaller um,
DDS dds,
bool  reuse = false 
)
virtual

Receive data from the net.

Receives data from the network connection identified by the source parameter. The data is put into the class data buffer according to the input dds.

This function is only used on the client side of the DODS client/server connection.

Parameters
umAn UnMarshaller that knows how to deserialize data types
ddsThe Data Descriptor Structure object corresponding to this dataset. See The DODS User Manual for information about this structure. This would have been received from the server in an earlier transmission.
reuseA boolean value, indicating whether the class internal data storage can be reused or not. If this argument is TRUE, the class buffer is assumed to be large enough to hold the incoming data, and it is not reallocated. If FALSE, new storage is allocated. If the internal buffer has not been allocated at all, this argument has no effect.
Returns
Always returns TRUE.
Exceptions
Errorwhen a problem reading from the UnMarshaller is found.

Parameters
strmC++ i/o stream to dump the information to
Returns
void

Reimplemented in libdap::Array.

Definition at line 2043 of file Vector.cc.

◆ element_count()

int libdap::Vector::element_count ( bool  leaves)
virtual

Count the members of constructor types.

Return a count of the total number of variables in this variable. This is used to count the number of variables held by a constructor variable - for simple type and vector variables it always returns 1.

For compound data types, there are two ways to count members. You can count the members, or you can count the simple members and add that to the count of the compound members. For example, if a Structure contains an Int32 and another Structure that itself contains two Int32 members, the element count of the top-level structure could be two (one Int32 and one Structure) or three (one Int32 by itself and two Int32's in the subsidiary Structure). Use the leaves parameter to control which kind of counting you desire.

Returns
Returns 1 for simple types. For compound members, the count depends on the leaves argument.
Parameters
leavesThis parameter is only relevant if the object contains other compound data types. If FALSE, the function counts only the data variables mentioned in the object's declaration. If TRUE, it counts the simple members, and adds that to the sum of the counts for the compound members. This parameter has no effect for simple type variables.

Reimplemented from libdap::BaseType.

◆ FQN()

string libdap::BaseType::FQN ( ) const
virtualinherited

Return the FQN for this variable. This will include the D4 Group component of the name.

Returns
The FQN in a string

Reimplemented in libdap::D4Group, and libdap::Constructor.

Definition at line 332 of file BaseType.cc.

◆ get_attr_table()

AttrTable & libdap::BaseType::get_attr_table ( )
virtualinherited

Get this variable's AttrTable. It's generally a bad idea to return a reference to a contained object, but in this case it seems that building an interface inside BaseType is overkill.

Use the AttrTable methods to manipulate the table.

Definition at line 582 of file BaseType.cc.

◆ get_buf()

char* libdap::Vector::get_buf ( )
inline

Provide access to internal data by reference. Callers cannot delete this but can pass them to other methods.

Note
Added so that the NCML handler can code some optimizations in its specialized versions of Array. jhrg 8/14/15
Returns
A pointer to the data buffer for Vectors/Arrays of the cardinal types.

Definition at line 138 of file Vector.h.

◆ get_compound_buf()

vector<BaseType*>& libdap::Vector::get_compound_buf ( )
inline

Provide access to internal data by reference. Callers cannot delete this but can pass them to other methods.

Returns
A reference to a vector of BaseType pointers. Treat with care; never delete these!

Definition at line 159 of file Vector.h.

◆ get_parent()

BaseType * libdap::BaseType::get_parent ( ) const
virtualinherited

Return a pointer to the Constructor or Vector which holds (contains) this variable. If this variable is at the top level, this method returns null.

Returns
A BaseType pointer to the variable's parent.

Definition at line 751 of file BaseType.cc.

◆ get_str()

vector<string>& libdap::Vector::get_str ( )
inline

Provide access to internal string data by reference. Callers cannot delete this but can pass them to other methods.

Returns
A reference to a vector of strings

Definition at line 148 of file Vector.h.

◆ get_value_capacity()

unsigned int libdap::Vector::get_value_capacity ( ) const
virtual

Return the capacity of the Vector in terms of number of elements of its data type that it can currently hold (i.e. not bytes). For example, this could be the size of the _buf array in bytes / sizeof(T) for the cardinal types T, or the capacity of the d_str vector if T is string or url type.

Definition at line 1406 of file Vector.cc.

◆ intern_data() [1/2]

void libdap::Vector::intern_data ( ConstraintEvaluator eval,
DDS dds 
)
virtual

read data into a variable for later use

Most uses of a variable are to either serialize its data to a stream of some sort or to read values from some stream and intern those in the variable for later use. These operations are perform by serialize() and deserialize() which follow. This function performs essentially both of these operations without actually using a stream device. The data are read using the read() method(s) and loaded into the variables directly.

This method is intended to be used by objects which transform DAP objects like the DataDDS into an ASCII CSV representation.

Note
A DAP2-only method
Parameters
evalA reference to a constraint evaluator
ddsThe complete DDS to which this variable belongs

Reimplemented from libdap::BaseType.

◆ is_constructor_type()

bool libdap::BaseType::is_constructor_type ( ) const
virtualinherited

Returns true if the instance is a constructor (i.e., Structure, Sequence or Grid) type variable.

Returns
True if the instance is a Structure, Sequence or Grid, False otherwise.

Definition at line 412 of file BaseType.cc.

◆ is_in_selection()

bool libdap::BaseType::is_in_selection ( )
virtualinherited

Is this variable part of the current selection?

Does this variable appear in either the selection part or as a function argument in the current constrain expression. If this property is set (true) then implementations of the read() method should read this variable.

Note
This method does not check, nor does it know about the semantics of, string arguments passed to functions. Those functions might include variable names in strings; they are responsible for reading those variables. See the grid (func_grid_select()) for an example.

◆ m_create_cardinal_data_buffer_for_type()

unsigned int libdap::Vector::m_create_cardinal_data_buffer_for_type ( unsigned int  numEltsOfType)
protected

Create _buf so that it can store numElts of the (assumed) cardinal type. This create storage for width() * numElts bytes. If _buf already exists, this DELETES IT and creates a new one. So don't use this if you want to keep the original _buf data around. This also sets the valueCapacity().

Parameters
numEltsOfTypethe number of elements of the cardinal type in var() that we want storage for.
Returns
the size of the buffer created.
Exceptions
ifthe Vector's type is not cardinal type.

◆ ops()

bool libdap::BaseType::ops ( BaseType b,
int  op 
)
virtualinherited

Evaluate relational operators.

This method contains the relational operators used by the constraint expression evaluator in the DDS class. Each class that wants to be able to evaluate relational expressions must overload this function. The implementation in BaseType throws an InternalErr exception. The DAP library classes Byte, ..., Url provide specializations of this method. It is not meaningful for classes such as Array because relational expressions using Array are not supported.

The op argument refers to a table generated by bison from the constraint expression parser. Use statements like the following to correctly interpret its value:

switch (op) {
    case EQUAL: return i1 == i2;
    case NOT_EQUAL: return i1 != i2;
    case GREATER: return i1 > i2;
    case GREATER_EQL: return i1 >= i2;
    case LESS: return i1 < i2;
    case LESS_EQL: return i1 <= i2;
    case REGEXP: throw Error("Regular expressions are not supported for integer values");
    default: throw Error("Unknown operator");
}

This function is used by the constraint expression evaluator.

Parameters
bCompare the value of this instance with b.
opAn integer index indicating which relational operator is implied. Choose one from the following: EQUAL, NOT_EQUAL, GREATER, GREATER_EQL, LESS, LESS_EQL, and REGEXP.
Returns
The boolean value of the comparison.

)
virtualinherited

Print an ASCII representation of the variable structure.

Write the variable's declaration in a C-style syntax. This function is used to create textual representation of the Data Descriptor Structure (DDS). See The DODS User Manual for information about this structure.

A simple array declaration might look like this:

Float64 lat[lat = 180];

While a more complex declaration (for a Grid, in this case), would look like this:

Grid {
ARRAY:
Int32 sst[time = 404][lat = 180][lon = 360];
MAPS:
Float64 time[time = 404];
Float64 lat[lat = 180];
Float64 lon[lon = 360];
} sst;
Parameters
outThe output stream on which to print the declaration.
spaceEach line of the declaration will begin with the characters in this string. Usually used for leading spaces.
print_semiA boolean value indicating whether to print a semicolon at the end of the declaration.
constraint_infoA boolean value indicating whether constraint information is to be printed with the declaration. If the value of this parameter is TRUE, print_decl() prints the value of the variable's send_p() flag after the declaration.
constrainedIf this boolean value is TRUE, the variable's declaration is only printed if is the send_p() flag is TRUE. If a constraint expression is in place, and this variable is not requested, the send_p() flag is FALSE.

Returns

Implements libdap::BaseType.

Implemented in libdap::Array.

◆ read()

bool libdap::BaseType::read ( )
virtualinherited

Read data into a local buffer.

This method should be implemented for each of the data type classes (Byte, ..., Grid) when using the DAP class library to build a server. This method is only for DAP servers. The library provides a default definition here which throws an InternalErr exception unless the read_p property has been set. In that case it returns false, indicating that all the data have been read. The latter case can happen when building a constant value that needs to be passed to a function. The variable/constant is loaded with a value when it is created.

When implementing a new DAP server, the Byte, ..., Grid data type classes are usually specialized. In each of those specializations read() should be defined to read values from the data source and store them in the object's local buffer. The read() method is called by other methods in this library. When writing read(), follow these rules:

  • read() should throw Error if it encounters an error. The message should be verbose enough to be understood by someone running a client on a different machine.
  • The value(s) should be read if and only if either send_p() or is_in_selection() return true. If neither of these return true, the value(s) should not be read. This is important when writing read() for a Constructor type such as Grid where a client may ask for only the map vectors (and thus reading the much larger Array part is not needed).
  • For each specialization of read(), the method should first test the value of the read_p property (using the read_p() method) and read values only if the value of read_p() is false. Once the read() method reads data and stores it in the instance, it must set the value of the read_p property to true using set_read_p(). If your read() methods fail to do this data may not serialize correctly.
  • The Array::read() and Grid::read() methods should take into account any restrictions on Array sizes.
  • If you are writing Sequence::read(), be sure to check the documentation for Sequence::read_row() and Sequence::serialize() so you understand how Sequence::read() is being called.
  • For Sequence::read(), your specialization must correctly manage the unsent_data property and row count in addition to the read_p property (handle the read_p property as describe above). For a Sequence to serialize correctly, once all data from the Sequence has been read, unsent_data property must be set to false (use Sequence::set_unsent_data()). Also, at that time the row number counter must be reset (use Sequence::reset_row_counter()). Typically the correct time to set unsent_data to false and reset the row counter is the time when Sequence::read() return false indicating that all the data for the Sequence have been read. Failure to handle these tasks will break serialization of nested Sequences. Note that when Sequence::read() returns with a result of true (indicating there is more data to send, the value of the unsent_data property should be true.

    Also, if you server must handle nested sequences, be sure to read about subclassing set_read_p().

Todo:
Modify the D4 serialize code so that it supports the true/false behavior of read() for arrays.
Todo:
Modify all of the stock handlers so they conform to this!
Returns
False means more data remains to be read, True indicates that no more data need to be read. For Sequence and D4Sequence, this method will generally read one instance of the Sequence; for other types it will generally read the entire variable modulo any limitations due to a constraint. However, the library should be written so that read can return less than all of the data for a variable - serialize() would then call the function until it returns True.

◆ read_p()

bool libdap::BaseType::read_p ( )
virtualinherited

Has this variable been read?

Returns true if the value(s) for this variable have been read from the data source, otherwise returns false. This method is used to determine when values need to be read using the read() method. When read_p() returns true, this library assumes that buf2val() (and other methods such as get_vec()) can be used to access the value(s) of a variable.

Returns
True if the variable's value(s) have been read, false otherwise.

◆ send_p()

bool libdap::BaseType::send_p ( )
virtualinherited

Should this variable be sent?

Returns the state of the send_p property. If true, this variable should be sent to the client, if false, it should not. If no constraint expression (CE) has been evaluated, this property is true for all variables in a data source (i.e., for all the variables listed in a DDS). If a CE has been evaluated, this property is true only for those variables listed in the projection part of the CE.

Returns
True if the variable should be sent to the client, false otherwise.

◆ serialize() [1/2]

bool libdap::Vector::serialize ( ConstraintEvaluator eval,
DDS dds,
Marshaller m,
bool  ce_eval = true 
)
virtual

Serialize a Vector.

This uses the Marshaler class to encode each element of a cardinal array. For Arrays of Str and Url types, send the element count over as a prefix to the data so that deserialize will know how many elements to read.

NB: Arrays of cardinal types must already be in BUF (in the local machine's representation) before this call is made.

◆ set_value_slice_from_row_major_vector()

unsigned int libdap::Vector::set_value_slice_from_row_major_vector ( const Vector rowMajorDataC,
unsigned int  startElement 
)
virtual

Copy rowMajorData.length() elements currently in a rowMajorData buffer into this value buffer starting at element index startElement and continuing up to startElement+rowMajorData.length()-1

This is used for aggregating together smaller rowMajor vectors into a larger one.

Note: unlike the other set_value calls, this does NOT set read_p() since it is assumed to be used as a partial read and the caller is expected to set_read_p() when the data is complete.

ASSUMES: rowMajorData.read_p() so that the data is valid! ASSUMES: this Vector has enough value_capacity() to contain all the elements such that: startElement + rowMajorData.length() <= this->value_capacity(). ASSUMES: the data type of this->var() and rowMajorData.var() MUST be non-NULL and be the same!

Parameters
rowMajorDataCthe vector from which to copy data, assumed already read in or set.
startElementthe element index (NOT byte, but rather data type element) to place the first data value.
Returns
the number of elements added, such that: startElement + the return value is the next "free" element.

Definition at line 1511 of file Vector.cc.

◆ set_vec()

void libdap::Vector::set_vec ( unsigned int  i,
BaseType val 
)

Sets element i to value val.

Sets an element of the vector to a given value. If the type of the input and the type of the Vector do not match, an error condition is returned.

Use this function only with Vectors containing compound types. See buf2val() or the set_value() methods to access members of Vector containing simple types.

Note
This method copies val; the caller is responsible for deleting instance passed as the actual parameter.
Returns
void
Exceptions
InternalErrThrown if i is out of range, val is null or there was a type mismatch between the BaseType referenced by val and the ith element of this Vector.
Parameters
iThe index of the element to be changed.
valA pointer to the value to be inserted into the array.

Sets element i to value val. Set the ith element to val. Extend the vector if needed.

Note
It is best to call vec_resize() first and allocate enough elements before calling this method.
This method does not copy val; this class will free the instance when the variable is deleted or when clear_local_data() is called.

Definition at line 184 of file BaseType.cc.

◆ transfer_attributes()

void libdap::BaseType::transfer_attributes ( AttrTable at_container)
virtualinherited

Transfer attributes from a DAS object into this variable. Because of the rough history of the DAS object and the way that various server code built the DAS, this is necessarily a heuristic process. The intent is that this method will be overridden by handlers that need to look for certain patterns in the DAS (e.g., hdf4's odd variable_dim_n; where n = 0, 1, 2, ...) attribute containers.

There should be a one-to-one mapping between variables and attribute containers. However, in some cases one variable has attributes spread across several top level containers and in some cases one container is used by several variables

Note
This method is technically unnecessary because a server (or client) can easily add attributes directly using the DDS::get_attr_table or BaseType::get_attr_table methods and then poke values in using any of the methods AttrTable provides. This method exists to ease the transition to DDS objects which contain attribute information for the existing servers (Since they all make DAS objects separately from the DDS). They could be modified to use the same AttrTable methods but operate on the AttrTable instances in a DDS/BaseType instead of those in a DAS.
Parameters
at_containerTransfer attributes from this container.
Returns
void

◆ transform_to_dap2()

std::vector< BaseType * > * libdap::BaseType::transform_to_dap2 ( AttrTable parent_attr_table)
virtualinherited

DAP4 to DAP2 transform.

For the current BaseType, return a DAP2 'copy' of the variable.

Note
For most DAP4 types, in this implementation of DAP2 the corresponding DAP4 type is the same. These types have a different representations in DAP2 and DAP4: Sequences (which are D4Sequences in the DAP4 implementation),
  • Grids (which are semantically subsumed by coverages in DAP4)
  • Arrays (which use shared dimensions in DAP4)

Additionally DAP4 adds the following types:

  • UInt8, Int8, and Char which map to Byte in DAP2.
  • Int64, Unit64 which have no natural representation in DAP2.
  • Opaque Possible Byte stuff[] plus metadata?
  • Enum's can be represented as Int32.
  • Groups, with the exception of the root group "disappear" into the names of their member variables. Specifically the Group name is add as a prefix followed by a "/" separator to the names of all of the Group's member groups variables.
Parameters
TheAttrTable pointer parent_attr_table is used by Groups, which disappear from the DAP2 representation. Their children are returned in the the BAseType vector their attributes are added to parent_attr_table;
Returns
A pointer to a vector of BaseType pointers (right?). In most cases this vector will contain a single pointer but DAP4 types 'disappear' such as Group will return all of their member variables in the vector. DAP4 types with no representation in DAP2 (ex: UInt64) the will return a NULL pointer and so this must be tested!

Parameters
rootThe root group that should hold this new variable. Add Group-level stuff here (e.g., D4Dimensions).
containerAdd the new variable to this container.
Returns
A pointer to the transformed variable

◆ type()

Type libdap::BaseType::type ( ) const
virtualinherited

Returns the type of the class instance.

Definition at line 365 of file BaseType.cc.

◆ type_name()

string libdap::BaseType::type_name ( ) const
virtualinherited

Returns the type of the class instance as a string.

Definition at line 379 of file BaseType.cc.

◆ val2buf()

unsigned int libdap::Vector::val2buf ( void *  val,
bool  reuse = false 
)
virtual

Reads data into the Vector buffer.

Copies data into the class instance buffer. This function assumes that the input val points to memory which contains, in row major order, enough elements of the correct type to fill the array. For an array of a cardinal type the memory is simply copied in whole into the Vector buffer.

If the variable has already been constrained, this method will load only number of values/bytes specified by that constraint and will load them into the 'front' of the object's internal buffer. This is where serialize() expects to find the data.

For a Vector of Str (OPeNDAP Strings), this assumes val points to an array of C++ strings.

This method should not be used for Structure, Sequence or Grid.

Exceptions
InternalErrThrown if called for Structure, Sequence or Grid.
Returns
The number of bytes used by the array.
Parameters
valA pointer to the input data.
reuseA boolean value, indicating whether the class internal data storage can be reused or not. If this argument is TRUE, the class buffer is assumed to be large enough to hold the incoming data, and it is not reallocated. If FALSE, new storage is allocated. If the internal buffer has not been allocated at all, this argument has no effect.

◆ value() [1/3]

void libdap::Vector::value ( vector< string > &  b) const
virtual

Get a copy of the data held by this variable.

Definition at line 1927 of file Vector.cc.

◆ value() [2/3]

void libdap::Vector::value ( vector< unsigned int > *  index,
vector< string > &  b 
) const
virtual

Get a copy of the data held by this variable using the passed subsetIndex vector to identify which values to return.

Definition at line 1875 of file Vector.cc.

◆ value() [3/3]

void * libdap::Vector::value ( )
virtual

Allocate memory and copy data into the new buffer. Return the new buffer's pointer. The caller must delete the storage.

Definition at line 1935 of file Vector.cc.

◆ var() [1/3]

BaseType * libdap::Vector::var ( const string &  n = "",
bool  exact = true,
btp_stack *  s = 0 
)
virtual

Returns a copy of the template array element. If the Vector contains simple data types, the template will contain the value of the last vector element accessed with the Vector::var(int i) function, if any. If no such access has been made, or if the Vector contains compound data types, the value held by the template instance is undefined.

Note that the parameter exact_match is not used by this mfunc.

Parameters
nThe name of the variable to find.
exactUnused.
sPointer to a BaseType Pointer Stack. Use this stack to record the path to the variable. By default this pointer is null, in which case it is not used.
Returns
A pointer to the BaseType if found, otherwise null.

◆ var() [2/3]

BaseType * libdap::Vector::var ( const string &  n,
btp_stack &  s 
)
virtual

This version of var(...) searches for name and returns a pointer to the BaseType object if found. It uses the same search algorithm as above when exact_match is false. In addition to returning a pointer to the variable, it pushes onto s a BaseType pointer to each constructor type that ultimately contains name.

Parameters
nFind the variable whose name is name.
sRecord the path to name.
Returns
A pointer to the named variable.

Reimplemented from libdap::BaseType.

Definition at line 467 of file Vector.cc.

◆ var() [3/3]

BaseType * libdap::Vector::var ( unsigned int  i)
virtual

Returns a pointer to the specified Vector element. The return pointer will reference the element itself, so multiple calls to this method should save each value before making the next call.

Parameters
iThe index of the desired Vector element. Zero indicates the first element of the Vector.
Returns
A pointer to a BaseType class instance containing the value of the indicated element. The BaseType pointer is locally maintained and should not be deleted or referenced. Extract the value right after the method returns.

◆ vec_resize()

void libdap::Vector::vec_resize ( int  l)

Resizes a Vector. If the input length is greater than the current length of the Vector, new memory is allocated (the Vector moved if necessary), and the new entries are appended to the end of the array and padded with Null values. If the input length is shorter, the tail values are discarded.

Note
This method is applicable to the compound types only.

Definition at line 568 of file Vector.cc.

◆ width()

unsigned int libdap::Vector::width ( bool  constrained = false) const
virtual

Returns the width of the data, in bytes.

Returns the number of bytes needed to hold the entire array. This is equal to length() (the number of elements in in the array) times the width of each element.

Reimplemented from libdap::BaseType.
