Hello, this is an update to the nested flag issue. The problem is more bizzare than I first reported, and I have updated the bitbucket issues. Here, I copy/paste from the bitbucket report. Again, if these is a preferred way for me to report such things, I will gladly abide :) Thanks, Don =========================================================== The nesting option for the read header methods is misleading, wrong and inconsistent. The documentation within pflexible.py for the various methods says to use a "nest=0" or "nest=1" argument to specify nesting. However, I have found that if "nest=0" or "nest=1" is specified, then it will always flag as no nesting, but if "nested=0" or "nested=1" is specified, then it will always flag as nesting. A sample code follows, along with output, to demonstrate the issue, is inserted in Comment section. #!/usr/bin/env python FLEXPARTOutputDir = '/home/morton/Research/CTBTO/FLEXPART_Benchmarking/NestExperiments/OutputNestOnlyWithDryWetConv/output' # From NILU pflexible project # Users will need to add the location of pflexible to $PYTHONPATH import pflexible as pf # Read the general header information common to all files H = pf.Header(FLEXPARTOutputDir, nested=1) isNested = H.nested # 0 = not nested, 1 = nested print 'isNested: ' + str(isNested) H = pf.Header(FLEXPARTOutputDir, nested=0) isNested = H.nested # 0 = not nested, 1 = nested print 'isNested: ' + str(isNested) H = pf.Header(FLEXPARTOutputDir, nest=1) isNested = H.nested # 0 = not nested, 1 = nested print 'isNested: ' + str(isNested) H = pf.Header(FLEXPARTOutputDir, nest=0) isNested = H.nested # 0 = not nested, 1 = nested print 'isNested: ' + str(isNested) The resulting output is: Header read: /home/morton/Research/CTBTO/FLEXPART_Benchmarking/NestExperiments/OutputNestOnlyWithDryWetConv/output/header_nest isNested: 1 Header read: /home/morton/Research/CTBTO/FLEXPART_Benchmarking/NestExperiments/OutputNestOnlyWithDryWetConv/output/header_nest isNested: 1 Header read: /home/morton/Research/CTBTO/FLEXPART_Benchmarking/NestExperiments/OutputNestOnlyWithDryWetConv/output/header isNested: 0 Header read: /home/morton/Research/CTBTO/FLEXPART_Benchmarking/NestExperiments/OutputNestOnlyWithDryWetConv/output/header isNested: 0 -- Voice: +1 907 450 8679 Arctic Region Supercomputing Center http://weather.arsc.edu/ http://people.arsc.edu/~morton/ <http://www.arsc.edu/%7Emorton/> |
