> John- > > GrADS has a notion of aggregation using templates of file names. I'm > wondering about the best way to handle multiple files. Should I > generate RandomAccessFiles for all of them right at the start and switch > to the appropriate one when reading data, or open each one when I need > it. Is there overhead to opening them all up front? The advantage I > see there is being able to throw an IOException if one of the files > doesn't exist. > > What do you do in NcML aggregation? we make sure the files exists, but dont open them. open and close as needed. that scales to arbitrary # of files, and avoids overhead, since you may not need them.
