Ferret STOPS on data request with region out of data bounds

[karlmsmith]

Reported by @AnsleyManke on 9 Oct 2003 21:31 UTC Subject: trapping illegal regions

Occasionally a user may accidentally try to apply a region whose limits are both below, or both above, the data bounds. Version 5.51 handled this gracefully:

    NOAA/PMEL TMAP
    FERRET v5.51
    Linux 2.4.3-12smp - 03/05/03
    09-Oct-03 15:24

yes? use monthly_navy_winds yes? shade/y=0/t=1-jan-1981:1-jan-1982 uwnd **ERROR: illegal limits: "UWND" is not in the range T=01-JAN-1981 00:00:01-JAN-1982 00:00 Axis extremes are T=01-JAN-1982 14:45:01-JAN-1993 08:45 yes?

But Linux & Irix v5.53 exit to the shell:

    NOAA/PMEL TMAP
    FERRET v5.53
    Linux(g77) 2.4.x - 09/26/03
     9-Oct-03 15:29

yes? use monthly_navy_winds yes? shade/y=0/t=1-jan-1981:1-jan-1982 uwnd STOP CONFINE_AXIS statement executed

    NOAA/PMEL TMAP
    FERRET v5.53
    IRIX 6.5 - 10/06/03

yes? use monthly_navy_winds yes? shade/y=0/t=1-jan-1981:1-jan-1982 uwnd STOP CONFINE_AXIS STOP
