Key profiles

When a BUFR file is loaded CodesUI scans the header of all the messages and displays the message list in the message list panel.

In this list a set of ecCodes BUFR header keys are displayed for each message. The column heading only displays label but we get detailed information of the actual key from the tooltip when hovering over the table heading.

CodesUI rescans all the messages and re-populates the message list according to the new key profile.

Key profiles can be added, removed and edited from the Key profile manager dialogue (Profiles → Manage profiles ... menu):
