USER_SOURCES_DIR: Provide more than one directory #4

Closed joewkr closed 6 years ago

joewkr commented 6 years ago

A directory with user source files could be provided via USER_SOURCES_DIR option, but sometimes sources from several directories should be used. It should be possible to define a list of user directories through USER_SOURCES_DIR.

Thank you for providing this feature!

From what I understand, convert_ecoclimap_param.f90 reads input from ECOCLIMAP dataset, which contains data in ascii form, and the ascii data would be written to binary

I am wondering, where are the output binary data files located? Should we always execute this command under open-SURFEX/MY_RUN/ECOCLIMAP?

Also, for each dataset under MY_RUN/NAMELIST, I found text files instead ascii files. So where are the ascii files we are converting?

Yes, CONVERT_ECOCLIMAP_PARAM should be always executed under open-SURFEX/MY_RUN/ECOCLIMAP because it uses relative paths to find ASCII data. This program converts ecoclimapI_covers_param.dat, ecoclimapII_af_covers_param.dat and ecoclimapII_eu_covers_param.dat to binary form and its output is stored in the same directory.

Files under MY_RUN/NAMELIST are configuration files for Open-SURFEX.
