1mNAME0m
       getdap - test driver for the libdap library

1mSYNOPSIS0m
       1mgetdap [-idaDxXBvVkzsM] [-c 4m22mexpr24m 1m] [-m 4m22mnum24m 1m] [-p 4m22mx.y24m 1m] 4m22murl24m 1m...0m

       1mgetdap [-VvksM] 4m22mfile24m 1m...0m

1mDESCRIPTION0m
       1mgetdap  22mIn  the first form of the command, dereference the URL and per-
       form the requested operations. This includes routing the  returned  in-
       formation  through the DAP processing library (parsing the returned ob-
       jects, et c.). If none of a, d, or D are used with a URL, then the  DAP
       library routines are NOT used and the URLs contents are dumped to stan-
       dard output.

       In the second form of the command, assume the files are DataDDS objects
       (stored  in  files  or  read from pipes) and process them as if -D were
       given. In this case the information *must* contain valid MIME header in
       order to be processed.

1mOPTIONS0m
       -i     For each URL, get the server version.

       -d     For each URL, get the the DDS.

       -a     For each URL, get the the DAS.

       -D     For each URL, get the the DataDDS.

       -x     For each URL, get the DDX object. Does not get data.

       -X     Request a DataDDX from the server (the DAP4 data response).

       -B     Build a DDX in getdap using the DDS and DAS.

       -v     Verbose output.

       -V     Version of this client; see 'i' for server version.

       -c expr
              4mexpr24m is a constraint expression. Used with -D/X.  You can use  a
              `?' for the CE also.

       -k     Keep temporary files created by libdap.

       -m num Request the same URL 4mnum24m times

       -z     Ask the server to compress data.

       -s     Print Sequences using numbered rows.

       -M     Assume data read from a file has no MIME headers (the default is
              to assume the headers are present).

       -p x.y Set DAP protocol to 4mx.y0m

1mFILES0m
       4m~/.dodsrc0m
              The  4m.dodsrc24m  file  contains  various parameters that affect the
              runtime behavior for DAP clients.  See 1mdodsrc22m(5) for further de-
              tails.

1mENVIRONMENT0m
       DODS_CONF
              Specifies an alternate file or directory for the 4m.dodsrc24m file.

1mDIAGNOSTICS0m
       Various self-explanitory messages may be issued on stderr.


1mBUGS0m
       The command name should have been chosen more carefully to reflect  its
       purpose.

       The dodsrc man page needs to be written.
