Autoplot Application (#{tag})
jnlp WebStart : Open JDK and Java 8 through Java 11 launch mechanism, 64-Bit Java will improve capabilities.
Single-Jar : .jar files can be launched on Windows and Mac, and contain a shell script for launching on Unix computers.
dmg: a self-contained installer for Mac computers.
exe: a self-contained installer for Windows computers.
Built with Install4J multi-platform installer builder and
deb and
rpm are available as well. Thanks, Install4J!
Corrections to "slices" tool allows display of MAVEN/SWIA data from PDS-PPI.
Autoplot allows plotting of data from many data sources, including remote CDF files and HAPI servers.
Datasets are identified with URIs, and by the URI's extension, data are loaded into one uniform data model. Data are
then displayed by determining the rendering method and axis ranges to provide a useful display with interactive axes and
mouse actions. The data can then be further processed with other operations like smooth and FFT, and Jython scripting
provides a capable programming environment.
This is the Autoplot v2024a branch. This is an update to the production version containing bugfixes and minor new features.
Java 8 is required.
To run on 32-bit systems, use the single-jar release and a 32-bit version of Java.
Bugfixes (2025-02-01 r28076):
- Support PDS3 JAD_L50_HLS_ELC_MOM_ISO_2D_ELECTRONS_*_V01.LBL
Older Bugfixes (2025-02-01 r28076):
- 2668: loosen up HAPI to support KNMI and EarthCARE servers.
- autoplot2017.py -> autoplot2023.py was never done to Run Batch, having the effect of run batch would not work for multi-thread.
- 2669: check for duplicate keys and throw IllegalArgumentException when this is detected.
- 2668: events list with BEGIN for timeStampLocation would cause exception.
- 2671: properly set parameters in runBatch with multithread.
- 2663: slices GUI corrections, enabling slice index and don't quote : to improve readability.
- 2663: slice3 index out of bounds check was against the wrong dimension.
- 2665: clean up code which renormalizes layout (code is disabled until after the production release)
- move ZipFileSystem to DasCore so that it can properly implement subfilesystem when zip file is local.
- Corrections to Autoplot Servlet, where "thin" client would misformat some time strings.
- PDS UNSIGNED_INTEGER arrays supported.
- Remove excessive use of synchronized blocks in LogConsole after seeing deadlock.
- HAPI server matcher constraint should be case-insensitive.
- Odl parser (used for .sts files) rejects when parameter is missing. Thanks, Jaya!
- server mode always sets headless to true.
- rte_1083526881: PDS4 code which automatically adds time column failed to check that a time column was actually found, causing Null Pointer Exception.
- 2657: detect rank 2 datasets in PDS4 Group_Field_Binary.
- Completions on URI with aggregation would list the entire filesystem, effectively hanging in some cases.
- Demo bookmarks #16 updated to CDAWeb, since elasticbeanstalk (Cassini) one is not available.
- check for null in completions, which happens for "vap+cdf:<C>"
- parseISO8601 just uses parseISO8601Datum now. Prep for URI_Template_Time integration.
Features:
Less recent features:
- add whereR1, since some scripts assume a rank 1 input but then a rank 2 output results in confusing errors later in the script.
- extent propagates format metadata, to improve readability of extent(where(...)).
- Allow use of integer ranges in vap+inline (not only time ranges), which is useful when marking ranges in binary file. Color names can be used in GUI.
- 360: Jython getParam and setOutputParam validate inputs now when constraints are used.
- PDS4 Tables will automatically use the first column for timetags.
- Add PDS3 demo to bookmarks (#17).
Feedback on the function and quality of this release is greatly appreciated!
