Re: [ferret_users] the length limit of dods links?



Hi David,
Thank you for the report. The limit is still at 256. We're reviewing why this is; possibly we had set it that way to be compatible with older OPeNDAP libraries.  I don't think there's any reason we won't be able to increase it but for now I don't see a workaround.

Dear Ferreters,

According to a message quite a while ago,

http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/Mail_Archives/fu_2001/msg00655.html

the maximal length of a filename is 512 chars. However when I tried to open a long dods link in FERRET, it gave an error and seems to cut off the filename string to 234 chars. I wonder if there is a length limit for dods links.

Thanks,
David

PS: an example:

yes?
