The parser and Wiki needs updating to head files generated by the newer version of software

Guys,

this should be a change in place or a new reader option? For example, older files would still require the "old" reader right?

@petejan,
may you please provide the function call signature and an example file (old and new)!?

Requirements:

• new header reader is implemented
• old/new reader is selectable
• Tests for new reader is available

[ggalibert]

I suppose any old and new formats should be supported.

Attached example files from several sensors I have,

@petejan,

For completeness, our current test file repo is missing some Staroddi example files:

a. Star-oddi with temperature corrections
b. Star-oddi with temperature in degF
c. Star-oddi with pressure corrections
d. Star-oddi with salinity data.
e. Star-oddi with pressure correction and salinity data.

any mini/dst-tilt/dst-ctd would do.

So far I have faked the above conditions based on the manual but it would be nice to have real files.

would you have any to provide to us?

Cheers

Attached data files from temperature sensors, conductivity, and pitch and roll senors,

starmon.zip

Remember the date format changes based on the users PC settings, also the data export from the starmon software needs setting up correctly.

Great! I already got some of those, but the salinity one is particularly useful to increase coverage. I add an issue to keep track of missing files too - #624.

forgot to link the old parser names to the new parser.
