skeletonTable produces a skeleton table from a CDF. A skeleton table is a text file which can be read by the SkeletonCDF program to build a skeleton CDF.

Parameters:

skeletonName - is the pathname of the skeleton table to be created. (Do not enter an extension because ".skt" is appended automatically). If null is specified, the skeleton table is named .skt in the current directory

cdfName - The pathname of the CDF from which the skeleton table will be created. Do not enter an extension.

log - Specifies whether or not messages are displayed as the program executes.

format - Specifies whether or not the FORMAT attribute is used when writing variable values (if the FORMAT attribute exists and an entry exists for the variable).

neg2posfp0 - Specifies whether or not -0.0 is converted to 0.0 by the CDF library when read from a CDF. -0.0 is an illegal floating point value on VAXes and DEC Alphas running OpenVMS.

statistics - Specifies whether or not caching statistics are displayed at the end of each CDF.

screen - Specifies whether or not the skeleton table is displayed on the terminal screen (written to the "standard output"). If not, the skeleton table is written to a file.

page - If the skeleton table is being displayed on the terminal screen, specifies whether or not the output is displayed one page (screen) at a time.

values - Specifies which variable values are to be put in the skeleton table. It may be one of the following...

CDFTools.NO_VALUES

Ignore all NRV data values.

CDFTools.NRV_VALUES

Put NRV data values in the skeleton table.

CDFTools.RV_VALUES

Put RV variable values in the skeleton table.

CDFTools.ALL_VALUES

Put all variable values in the skeleton table.

CDFTools.NAMED_VALUES

Put named variables values in the skeleton table. This requires that valueList be non-null

valueList - the named variables to list values.

zMode - Specifies which zMode should be used. May be one of the following...

0

Indicates that zMode is disabled.

1

Indicates that zMode/1 should be used (the dimension variances of rVariables will be preserved).

2

Indicates that zMode/2 should be used (the dimensions of rVariables having a variance of NOVARY (false) are hidden.

reportType - Specifies the types of return status codes from the CDF library which should be reported/displayed. report is a bit mask made up from the following CDFTools.NO_REPORTS, CDFTools.REPORT_ERRORS, CDFTools.REPORT_WARNINGS and CDFTools.REPORT_INFORMATION

cacheSize - The number of buffers to be used for the CDF's dotCDF file. Pass 0 to use the default.

Note:
When running an application that use this static method, make sure this cdf.base system property is defined (to the cdf installation). For example,
java -Dcdf.base=/home/cdf/cdf34_1-dist MyApp

skeletonTable produces a skeleton table from a CDF. A skeleton table is a text file which can be read by the SkeletonCDF program to build a skeleton CDF.

Parameters:

skeletonName - is the pathname of the skeleton table to be created. (Do not enter an extension because ".skt" is appended automatically). If null is specified, the skeleton table is named .skt in the current directory

cdfName - The pathname of the CDF from which the skeleton table will be created. Do not enter an extension.

log - Specifies whether or not messages are displayed as the program executes.

format - Specifies whether or not the FORMAT attribute is used when writing variable values (if the FORMAT attribute exists and an entry exists for the variable).

neg2posfp0 - Specifies whether or not -0.0 is converted to 0.0 by the CDF library when read from a CDF. -0.0 is an illegal floating point value on VAXes and DEC Alphas running OpenVMS.

statistics - Specifies whether or not caching statistics are displayed at the end of each CDF.

screen - Specifies whether or not the skeleton table is displayed on the terminal screen (written to the "standard output"). If not, the skeleton table is written to a file.

page - If the skeleton table is being displayed on the terminal screen, specifies whether or not the output is displayed one page (screen) at a time.

values - Specifies which variable values are to be put in the skeleton table. It may be one of the following...

CDFTools.NO_VALUES

Ignore all NRV data values.

CDFTools.NRV_VALUES

Put NRV data values in the skeleton table.

CDFTools.RV_VALUES

Put RV variable values in the skeleton table.

CDFTools.ALL_VALUES

Put all variable values in the skeleton table.

CDFTools.NAMED_VALUES

Put named variables values in the skeleton table. This requires that valueList be non-null

valueList - the named variables to list values.

zMode - Specifies which zMode should be used. May be one of the following...

0

Indicates that zMode is disabled.

1

Indicates that zMode/1 should be used (the dimension variances of rVariables will be preserved).

2

Indicates that zMode/2 should be used (the dimensions of rVariables having a variance of NOVARY (false) are hidden.

reportType - Specifies the types of return status codes from the CDF library which should be reported/displayed. report is a bit mask made up from the following CDFTools.NO_REPORTS, CDFTools.REPORT_ERRORS, CDFTools.REPORT_WARNINGS and CDFTools.REPORT_INFORMATION

cacheSize - The number of buffers to be used for the CDF's dotCDF file, staging file, and compression scratch file. This field used only in the CDF access process will not change anything to the contents of the skeleton table. Large number(s) will likely reduce physical I/Os if variable data are involved. If this field is null, the default cache sizes chosen by the CDF library are used. The cache sizes are specified with a comma-separated list of pairs where is the number of cache buffers and is the type of file. The file 's are as follows: `d' for the dotCDF file, `s' for the staging file, and `c' for the compression scratch file. For example, `200d,100s' specifies 200 cache buffers for the dotCDF file and 100 cache buffers for the staging file. The dotCDF file cache size can also be specified without the `d' for compatibility with older CDF releases (eg. `200,100s'). Note that not all of the file types must be specified. Those not specified will receive a default cache size.
