Hi nathan:Im wondering what your case is. Is is that you want to use the jnlp file in Hyrax without creating a catalog? Or you are not making dataset ids for the fragment? or ???

Hi Nathan, Currently, the netCDF ToolsUI will accept a single argument which must be a URL to a THREDDS catalog. It opens that catalog in the "THREDDS" tab. If the URL has a fragment identifier which is a valid dataset ID, that dataset is selected and displayed in the "THREDDS" tab. It would be a nice addition to allow a "-dap <dapURL>" argument which would open the OPeNDAP dataset in the "Viewer" tab. I've added this to our enhancements list.

I have been looking at the JNLP files that are used to "WebStart" the application and the arguments section looks like this: / <application-desc main-class="ucar.nc2.ui.ToolsUI"> <argument>{catalog}#{dataset}</argument> </application-desc> / And a typical URL to invoke it looks like this: /http://motherlode.ucar.edu/thredds/view/ToolsUI.jnlp?catalog=http://motherlode.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/fmrc/NCEP/GFS/Alaska_191km/runs/catalog.xml&dataset=fmrc/NCEP/GFS/Alaska_191km/runs/NCEP-GFS-Alaska_191km_RUN_2010-08-03T12:00:00Z <http://motherlode.ucar.edu/thredds/view/ToolsUI.jnlp?catalog=http://motherlode.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/fmrc/NCEP/GFS/Alaska_191km/runs/catalog.xml&dataset=fmrc/NCEP/GFS/Alaska_191km/runs/NCEP-GFS-Alaska_191km_RUN_2010-08-03T12:00:00Z> / Which in turn returns a JNLP file with the argument element filled in: / <application-desc main-class="ucar.nc2.ui.ToolsUI"> <argument>http://motherlode.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/fmrc/NCEP/GFS/Alaska_191km/runs/catalog.xml#fmrc/NCEP/GFS/Alaska_191km/runs/NCEP-GFS-Alaska_191km_RUN_2010-08-03T12:00:00Z</argument> </application-desc> / So I would deduce that it wants the catalog URL and the thredds:dataset/@ID attribute separated by a "#" sign as it's argument.Does it accept different argument schemes?Is there a way to simply pass it a DAP data access URL? /http://motherlode.ucar.edu/thredds/dodsC/fmrc/NCEP/GFS/Alaska_191km/runs/NCEP-GFS-Alaska_191km_RUN_2010-08-03T12:00:00Z / Or even a URL that returns a netcdf file? /http://motherlode.ucar.edu/thredds/dodsC/fmrc/NCEP/GFS/Alaska_191km/runs/NCEP-GFS-Alaska_191km_RUN_2010-08-03T12:00:00Z.nc / (This last example is really a fictitious URL but I hope you can appreciate my point) Or is it the case that it will only accept a THREDDS catalog and a dataset ID as arguments?
