[THREDDS #EFD-558110]: HDF5 (nested variable name) + NCML

Hi Abdelrezzak,

Try using this bit of NcML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<netcdf xmlns="http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/namespaces/netcdf/ncml-2.2"; 
location="grid_1_2d.h5">
  <group name='HDFEOS'>
    <group name='GRIDS'> 
      <group name='GeoGrid'>
        <group name='Data_Fields'>
          <variable name="temp" orgName="temperature"/> 
        </group>
      </group>
    </group>
  </group>
</netcdf>

I believe this will handle the nested variable name.
