NetCDF converter doesn't support unsigned types

Reported by: Dimitar Misev Owned by: alexander.w.jacob@…
Priority: major Milestone: Future
Component: conversion Version: development

Complexity: Medium

Description

It seems that CDL supports only signed types (implemented in rasdaman), whereas NetCDF 4 supports unsigned as well. We should enable support for unsigned as well, approximately here:

The NetCDF C++ lib was removed as a dependency and we now use the underlying C API directly. This allows creating NetCDF4/HDF5 files, which supports extended atomic types (including unsigned).
