  1. Try decoding the BUFR file "ikco_217.local.bufr" using bufr_dump. This file uses a local table version (localTablesVersionNumber=66).
    This Decoding should fail as ecCodes does not know about these descriptors.
  2. Run the codes_info tool to find the location of the default definitions.
  3. Now set ECCODES_DEFINITION_PATH to include the provided "mydefs" directory.
    E.g.
    export ECCODES_DEFINITION_PATH=`pwd`/mydefs:`codes_info -d`
  4. Now see if ecCodes can decode the BUFR file.
  5. Search the output of bufr_dump for the overridden unit "MyOwnUnits".
    This was added as an example of a centre defining its own parameter attributes
