1. Issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/2043
* FreeBSD build fails because of conflicts in defining the fileno() function. So removed all extern declarations of fileno.
2. Issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/2124
* There were a couple of problems here.
* I was conflating msys with mingw and they need separate handling of paths. So treat mingw like windows.
* memio.c was not always writing the full content of the memory to file. Untested fix by properly accounting for zero size writes.

H/T to [Egbert Eich](https://github.com/e4t) and [Bas Couwenberg](https://github.com/sebastic) for this PR.
It is undesirable to make netcdf be dependent on the availability
of libxml2, but it is desirable to allow its use if available.
In order to do this, a wrapper API (include/ncxml.h) was constructed
that supports either ezxml or libxml2 as the implementation.
Additionally, the xml support code was moved to a new directory
netcdf-c/libncxml.
Primary changes:
* Create a new sub-directory named netcdf-c/libncxml to hold all the xml implementation code.
* Move ezxml.c and ezxml.h to libncxml
* Create a wrapper API -- include/ncxml.h
* Create an implementation, ncxml_ezxml.c to support use of ezxml.
* Create an implementation, ncxml_xml2.c to support use of libxml2.
* Add a check for libxml2 in configure.ac and CMakeLists.txt
* Modify libdap to use the wrapper API instead of ezxml directly.
Misc. Other Changes:
* Change include/netcdf_json.h from built source to be part of the distribution.
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/2117
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/2119
* Modify libsrc to allow byte-range reading of netcdf-3 files in private S3 buckets; this required using the aws sdk. Also add a test case.
* The aws sdk can sometimes cause problems if the Awd::ShutdownAPI function is not called. So at optional atexit() support to ensure it is called. This is disabled for Windows.
* Add documentation to nczarr.md on how to build and use the aws sdk under windows. Currently it builds, but testing fails.
* Switch testing from stratus to the Unidata bucket on S3.
* Improve support for the s3: url protocol.
* Add a s3 specific utility code file: ds3util.c
* Modify NC_infermodel to attempt to read the magic number of byte-ranged files in S3.
## Misc.
* Move and rename the core S3 SDK wrapper code (libnczarr/zs3sdk.cpp) to libdispatch since it now used in libsrc as well as libnczarr.
* Add calls to nc_finalize in the utilities in case atexit is disabled.
* Add header only json parser to the distribution rather than as a built source.
## S3 Related Fixes
* Add comprehensive support for specifying AWS profiles to provide access credentials.
* Parse the files "~/.aws/config" and "~/.aws/credentials to provide credentials for the HDF5 ROS3 driver and to locate default region.
* Add a function to obtain the currently active S3 credentials. The search rules are defined in docs/nczarr.md.
* Provide documentation for the new features.
* Modify the struct NCauth (in include/ncauth.h) to replace specific S3 credentials with a profile name.
* Add a unit test to test the operation of profile and credentials management.
* Add support for URLS of the form "s3://<bucket>/<key>"; this requires obtaining a default region.
* Allows the specification of profile and/or region in a URL of the form "#mode=nczarr,...&aws.region=...&aws.profile=..."
## Misc. Fixes
* Move the ezxml code to libdispatch so that it can be used both by DAP4 and nczarr.
* Modify nclist to provide a deep clone operation.
* Modify ncuri to provide a deep clone operation.
* Modify the .rc file format to allow the specification of a path to be tested when looking for an entry in the .rc file.
* Ensure that the NC_rcload function is called.
* Modify nchttp to support setting request headers.
Filter support has three goals:
1. Use the existing HDF5 filter implementations,
2. Allow filter metadata to be stored in the NumCodecs metadata format used by Zarr,
3. Allow filters to be used even when HDF5 is disabled
Detailed usage directions are define in docs/filters.md.
For now, the existing filter API is left in place. So filters
are defined using ''nc_def_var_filter'' using the HDF5 style
where the id and parameters are unsigned integers.
This is a big change since filters affect many parts of the code.
In the following, the terms "compressor" and "filter" and "codec" are generally
used synonomously.
### Filter-Related Changes:
* In order to support dynamic loading of shared filter libraries, a new library was added in the libncpoco directory; it helps to isolate dynamic loading across multiple platforms.
* Provide a json parsing library for use by plugins; this is created by merging libdispatch/ncjson.c with include/ncjson.h.
* Add a new _Codecs attribute to allow clients to see what codecs are being used; let ncdump -s print it out.
* Provide special headers to help support compilation of HDF5 filters when HDF5 is not enabled: netcdf_filter_hdf5_build.h and netcdf_filter_build.h.
* Add a number of new test to test the new nczarr filters.
* Let ncgen parse _Codecs attribute, although it is ignored.
### Plugin directory changes:
* Add support for the Blosc compressor; this is essential because it is the most common compressor used in Zarr datasets. This also necessitated adding a CMake FindBlosc.cmake file
* Add NCZarr support for the big-four filters provided by HDF5: shuffle, fletcher32, deflate (zlib), and szip
* Add a Codec defaulter (see docs/filters.md) for the big four filters.
* Make plugins work with windows by properly adding __declspec declaration.
### Misc. Non-Filter Changes
* Replace most uses of USE_NETCDF4 (deprecated) with USE_HDF5.
* Improve support for caching
* More fixes for path conversion code
* Fix misc. memory leaks
* Add new utility -- ncdump/ncpathcvt -- that does more or less the same thing as cygpath.
* Add a number of new test to test the non-filter fixes.
* Update the parsers
* Convert most instances of '#ifdef _MSC_VER' to '#ifdef _WIN32'
Re: https://github.com/zarr-developers/zarr-python/pull/716
The Zarr version 2 spec has been extended to include the ability
to choose the dimension separator in chunk name keys. The legal
separators has been extended from {'.'} to {'.' '/'}. So now it
is possible to use a key like "0/1/2/0" for chunk names.
This PR implements this for NCZarr. The V2 spec now says that
this separator can be set on a per-variable basis. For now, I
have chosen to allow this be set only globally by adding a key
named "ZARR.DIMENSION_SEPARATOR=<char>" in the
.daprc/.dodsrc/ncrc file. Currently, the only legal separator
characters are '.' (the default) and '/'. On writing, this key
will only be written if its value is different than the default.
This change caused problems because supporting a separator of '/'
is difficult to parse when keys/paths use '/' as the path separator.
A test case was added for this.
Additionally, make nczarr be enabled default by default. This required
some additional changes so that if zip and/or AWS S3 sdk are unavailable,
then they are disabled for NCZarr.
In addition the following unrelated changes were made.
1. Tested that pure-zarr mode could read an nczarr formatted store.
1. The .rc file handling now merges all known .rc files (.ncrc,.daprc, and .dodsrc) in that order and using those in HOME first, then in current directory. For duplicate entries, the later ones override the earlier ones. This change is to remove some of the conflicts inherent in the current .rc file load process. A set of test cases was also added.
1. Re-order tests in configure.ac and CMakeLists.txt so that if libcurl
is not found then the other options that depend upon it properly
are disabled.
1. I decided that xarray support should be enabled by default for pure
zarr. In order to allow disabling, I added a new mode flag "noxarray".
1. Certain test in nczarr_test depend on use of .dodsrc. In order for these
to work when testing in parallel, some inter-test dependencies needed to
be added.
1. Improved authorization testing to use changes in thredds.ucar.edu
The netcdf-c code has to deal with a variety of platforms:
Windows, OSX, Linux, Cygwin, MSYS, etc. These platforms differ
significantly in the kind of file paths that they accept. So in
order to handle this, I have created a set of replacements for
the most common file system operations such as _open_ or _fopen_
or _access_ to manage the file path differences correctly.
A more limited version of this idea was already implemented via
the ncwinpath.h and dwinpath.c code. So this can be viewed as a
replacement for that code. And in path in many cases, the only
change that was required was to replace '#include <ncwinpath.h>'
with '#include <ncpathmgt.h>' and then replace file operation
calls with the NCxxx equivalent from ncpathmgr.h Note that
recently, the ncwinpath.h was renamed ncpathmgmt.h, so this pull
request should not require dealing with winpath.
The heart of the change is include/ncpathmgmt.h, which provides
alternate operations such as NCfopen or NCaccess and which properly
parse and rebuild path arguments to work for the platform on which
the code is executing. This mostly matters for Windows because of the
way that it uses backslash and drive letters, as compared to *nix*.
One important feature is that the user can do string manipulations
on a file path without having to worry too much about the platform
because the path management code will properly handle most mixed cases.
So one can for example concatenate a path suffix that uses forward
slashes to a Windows path and have it work correctly.
The conversion code is in libdispatch/dpathmgr.c, and the
important function there is NCpathcvt which does the proper
conversions to the local path format.
As a rule, most code should just replace their file operations with
the corresponding NCxxx ones defined in include/ncpathmgmt.h. These
NCxxx functions all call NCpathcvt on their path arguments before
executing the actual file operation.
In some rare cases, the client may need to directly use NCpathcvt,
but this should be avoided as much as possible. If there is a need
for supporting a new file operation not already in ncpathmgmt.h, then
use the code in dpathmgr.c as a template. Also please notify Unidata
so we can include it as a formal part or our supported operations.
Also, if you see an operation in the library that is not using the
NCxxx form, then please submit an issue so we can fix it.
Misc. Changes:
* Clean up the utf8 testing code; it is impossible to get some
tests to work under windows using shell scripts; the args do
not pass as utf8 but as some other encoding.
* Added an extra utf8 test case: test_unicode_path.sh
* Add a true test for HDF5 1.10.6 or later because as noted in
PR https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1794,
HDF5 changed its Windows file path handling.
re: Issue
The netcdf dispatch table version was defined in several places.
Modify to only require defining it in CMakeLists.txt and configure.ac.
Fix entailed the following changes:
* Up the NC_DISPATCH_VERSION from 2 to 3 in configure.ac and CMakeLists.txt
* Create include/netcdf_dispatch.h.in and use it to configure include/netcdf_dispatch.h
* For CMAKE, make it search CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR so code can locate the configured netcdf_dispatch.h
* Add entry to config.h.cmake.in for NC_DISPATCH_VERSION
* Move NCerror from include/ncdispatch.h to libdap2/nccomon.h
* Fix an API problem re nchttp.h
* Fix a conversion warning in libdispatch/dinfermodel.c
The primary change is to support the use of a zip file as a
storage format. Simultaneously the .nz4 support is made obsolete
Use of zip requires the libzip support library, so a number of
changes to the build files (Makefile.am, CMakeLists.txt) are
necessary to locate and incorporate libzip. The nczarr_tests
tests are also changed to add zip testing.
Other changes:
* Make sure distcheck leaves no files around.
* Add some functions to netcdf_aux to export some functions of libnetcdf.
* Add a new error NC_EFOUND as the complement of NC_EEMPTY.
* Add tracing support to nclog and use it in libnczarr.
* Modify the zmap interface to support the writeonce semantics of zip.
* Create a new s3util.c to support a variety of S3 auxilliary functions.
* EXTERNL'ize a number of functions so they can be used in s3util.
* Add support for the S3 ListObjects CommonPrefixes mechanism
to improve search.
* Add experimental support for running nczarr X s3 tests against
the actual Amazon S3 cloud.
re: esupport 31942
* Add a new set of remote tests based on using the opendap hyrax server
* Re-enable --enable-dap-remote-tests as default on
* Make it possible to query the DMR separate from the DAP
so that it is possible to delay reading data until it is actually
requested. This make things like ncdump -h much more efficient.
* Fix handling of <Map>s in DMRs.
* Fix some memory leaks
Primary Fixes:
* Add a whole variable optimization -- used in the rare case that nc_get/put_vara covers the whole of a variable and the variable has a single chunk.
* Fix chunking error when stride causes whole chunks to be skipped.
* Fix some memory leaks
* Add test cases
* Add one performance test to nczarr_test/. This uses the timer utils from unit_test: timer_utils.[ch].
* Move ncdumpchunks utility from ncdump to nczarr_test
Misc. Other Changes:
* Make check for aws libraries conditional on --enable-nczarr-s3
* Remove all but one bm tests from nczarr_test until they are working.
* Remove another dependency on HDF5 from supposedly non-HDF5 specific code; specifically hdf5_log_hdf5.
* Make the BAIL2 macro be hdf5 specific and replace elsewhere with an HDF5 independent equivalent.
* Move hdf5cache.c to libsrc4/nc4cache.c because it is used by nczarr.
* Modify unit_tests so that some of them are run even if using Windows.
* Misc. small bug fixes and refactors and memory leaks.
* Rename some conflicting tests for cmake.
* Attempted to make nc_perf work with cmake and failed.
Re: GH Issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1900
Apparently the clock_gettime() function is not always available.
It is used in unit_test/tst_exhash.c and unit_test/tst_xcache.c.
To solve this, a number of things were changed:
* Move the timing code to a new file unit_tests/timer_utils.[ch]
* Modify the timing code to choose one of several timing methods
depending on availability. The prioritized order is as follows:
1. If Windows, use the QueryPerformanceCounter mechanism else
2. Use clock_gettime if available else
3. Use gettimeofday if available else
4. Use getrusage if available
Note that the resolution of 3 and 4 is less than 1 or 2.
Misc. Other Changes:
* Move the test in CMakeLists.txt that disables unit tests for WIN32 to unit_test/CMakeLists.txt since some unit tests actually work under Visual Studio.
* Fix some of the unit tests to work under visual studio
* Fix problem with using remove() in zmap_nzf.c
* Remove some warning about use of EXTERNL
Primary changes:
* Add an improved cache system to speed up performance.
* Fix NCZarr to properly handle scalar variables.
Misc. Related Changes:
* Added unit tests for extendible hash and for the generic cache.
* Add config parameter to set size of the NCZarr cache.
* Add initial performance tests but leave them unused.
* Add CRC64 support.
* Move location of ncdumpchunks utility from /ncgen to /ncdump.
* Refactor auth support.
Misc. Unrelated Changes:
* More cleanup of the S3 support
* Add support for S3 authentication in .rc files: HTTP.S3.ACCESSID and HTTP.S3.SECRETKEY.
* Remove the hashkey from the struct OBJHDR since it is never used.
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1876
and: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1835
and: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf4-python/issues/1041
The change in PR 1835 was correct with respect to using %20 instead of '+'
for encoding blanks. However, it was a mistake to assume everything was
unencoded and then to do encoding ourselves. The problem is that
different servers do different things, with Columbia being an outlier.
So, I have added a set of client controls that can at least give
the caller some control over this. The caller can append
the following fragment to his URL to control what gets encoded before
sending it to the server. The syntax is as follows:
````
https://<host>/<path>/<query>#encode=path|query|all|none
````
The possible values:
* path -- URL encode (i.e. %xx encode) as needed in the path part of the URL.
* query -- URL encode as needed in the query part of the URL.
* all -- equivalent to ````#encode=path,query````.
* none -- do not url encode any part of the URL sent to the server; not strictly necessary, so mostly for completeness.
Note that if "encode=" is used, then before it is processed, all encoding
is turned of so that ````#encode=path```` will only encode the path
and not the query.
The default is ````#encode=query````, so the path is left untouched,
but the query is always encoded.
Internally, this required changes to pass the encode flags down into
the OC2 library.
Misc. Unrelated Changes:
* Shut up those irritating warning from putget.m4
There were some irregularities in the flags for handling NCZarr S3 support.
The primary change is to regularize the flags controlling this to the following.
1. Automake: --enable-nczarr-s3 and CMake: ENABLE_NCZARR_S3
2. Automake: --enable-nczarr-s3-tests and CMake: ENABLE_NCZARR_S3_TESTS
Flag 1 indicates that NCZarr should be built with S3 support enabled.
Flag 2 indicates that the NCZarr S3 tests should be run
These two flags are separate because running the NCZarr S3 tests
requires access to protected S3 resources. Currently, running
these tests is restricted to Unidata personnel. However, users
may want to enable S3 support even if they cannot run the tests.
It is, of course, an error to specify 2 without specifying 1.
Additionally, if the AWS S3 SDK library is not found, then the NCZARR S3
support and testing must be disabled. Otherwise an error is signaled
during the build.
Some of these NCZarr and S3 changes are propagated to nc-config.
Misc. Other Changes:
1. Allow testing for CYGWIN or MSVC in shell scripts.
2. Add specific test for HDF5 library version 1.10.6.
This is encoded as "HDF5_UTF8_PATHS" because that is the first
version where HDF5 properly supports it under Windows. This is used
in hdf5internal/nc4_ndf5_ansi_to_utf8.
3. Add a AM Conditional -- AX_IGNORE -- for use in testing
when it is desirable to temporarily suppress Makefile code.
4. Add MULTIFILTER flag to CMakeLists.txt
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1836
Revert the internal filter code to simplify it. From the user's
point of view, the only visible changes should be:
1. The functions that convert text to filter specs have had their signature reverted and have been moved to netcdf_aux.h
2. Some filter API functions now return NC_ENOFILTER when inquiry is made about some filter.
Internally,the dispatch table has been modified to get rid of the filter_actions
entry and associated complex structures. It has been replaced with
inq_var_filter_ids and inq_var_filter_info entries and the dispatch table
version has been bumped to 3. Corresponding NOOP and NOTNC4 functions
were added to libdispatch/dnotnc4.c. Also, the filter_action entries
in dispatch tables were replaced for all dispatch code bases (HDF5, DAP2,
etc). This should only impact UDF users.
In the process, it became clear that the form of the filters
field in NC_VAR_INFO_T was format dependent, so I converted it to
be of type void* and pushed its management into the various dispatch
code bases. Specifically libhdf5 and libnczarr now manage the filters
field in their own way.
The auxilliary functions for parsing textual filter specifications
were moved to netcdf_aux.h and were renamed to the following:
* ncaux_h5filterspec_parse
* ncaux_h5filterspec_parselist
* ncaux_h5filterspec_free
* ncaux_h5filter_fix8
Misc. Other Changes:
1. Document NUG/filters.md updated to reflect the changes above.
2. All the old data types (structs and enums)
used by filter_actions actions were deleted.
The exception is the NC_H5_Filterspec because it is needed
by ncaux_h5filterspec_parselist.
3. Clientside filters were removed -- another enhancement
for which no-one ever asked.
4. The ability to remove filters was itself removed.
5. Some functionality needed by nczarr was moved from libhdf5
to libsrc4 e.g. nc4_find_default_chunksizes
6. All the filterx code was removed
7. ncfilter.h and nc4filter.c no longer used
Misc. Unrelated Changes:
1. The nczarr_test makefile clean was leaving some directories; so
add clean-local to take care of them.
re: Issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1848
The existing Virtual File Driver built to support byte-range
read-only file access is quite old. It turns out to be extremely
slow (reason unknown at the moment).
Starting with HDF5 1.10.6, the HDF5 library has its own version
of such a file driver. The HDF5 developers have better knowledge
about building such a driver and what incantations are needed to
get good performance.
This PR modifies the byte-range code in hdf5open.c so
that if the HDF5 file driver is available, then it is used
in preference to the one written by the Netcdf group.
Misc. Other Changes:
1. Moved all of nc4print code to ncdump to keep appveyor quiet.
As it was, nccopy -c dim/x was sometimes being ignored. So
modify nccopy to properly take into account. This also required
a change to the nczarr code because it was not applying default
chunking in the same way as libhdf5.
Modify ncdump/tst_nccopy4.sh to test this feature properly.
Also add a similar test to nczarr_test.
Additionally, fix some other things that were causing Visual
Studio builds with testing to not work.
* fix curl testing under CMake to properly handle case
where DAP is disabled, but byterange support is enabled.
* properly test and/or define uintptr_t
* Convert _O_XXX to O_XXX flags used by open();
disengagement of enable-netcdf4 from enable-hdf5.
That is, with the advent of nczarr, it is possible
to turn off hdf5 but still need netcdf-4 enabled
because nczarr uses libsrc4, but not libhdf5.
This change involves a bunch of things:
1. Modify configure.ac and CMakelist to make enable_hdf5
control if hdf5 support is provided. For back compatibility,
disable-netcdf4 is treated as disable-hdf5. But internally,
netcdf4 support is controlled only by the enabling of formats
that require it.
2. In support of #1, modify .travis.yml to use enable/disable-hdf5
instead of enable/disable-netcdf4.
3. test_common.in is modified to track selected features,
including enable-hdf5 and enable-s3-tests. This is used in
selected tests that mix netcdf-3 and netcdf4 tests.
4. The conflation of USE_HDF5 and USE_NETCDF4 is common in
code, tests, and build files, so all of those had to be weeded out.
5. It turns out that some of the NC4_dim functions really are HDF5 specific,
but are not treated as such. So they are moved from nc4dim.c to
hdf5dim.c or hdf5dispatch.c
6. Some generic functions in libhdf5 can be (and were) moved to libsrc4.
