file with @internal. The equivalent can be faked using
the Doxygen ENABLED_SECTIONS mechanism. See docs/testserver.dox
to see how this is done. So I make --enable-internal-docs
also set ENABLED_SECTIONS = INTERNAL and then used it
in docs/testserver.dox to decide if it needs to be included.
in the docs directory.
1. Add a new internal document -- testserver.dox -- to describe
how to set up and maintain the dap test server.
2. It moves the internal documentation (internal.dox, indexing.dox,
and testserver.dox) to later in the documentation table of contents.
3. Cleanup the formatting of the internal documents.
4. Cleanup some minor doxygen issues in other files.
The file docs/indexing.dox tries to provide design
information for the refactoring.
The primary change is to replace all walking of linked
lists with the use of the NCindex data structure.
Ncindex is a combination of a hash table (for name-based
lookup) and a vector (for walking the elements in the index).
Additionally, global vectors are added to NC_HDF5_FILE_INFO_T
to support direct mapping of an e.g. dimid to the NC_DIM_INFO_T
object. These global vectors exist for dimensions, types, and groups
because they have globally unique id numbers.
WARNING:
1. since libsrc4 and libsrchdf4 share code, there are also
changes in libsrchdf4.
2. Any outstanding pull requests that change libsrc4 or libhdf4
are likely to cause conflicts with this code.
3. The original reason for doing this was for performance improvements,
but as noted elsewhere, this may not be significant because
the meta-data read performance apparently is being dominated
by the hdf5 library because we do bulk meta-data reading rather
than lazy reading.

Expand the NC_INMEMORY capabilities to support writing and accessing
the final modified memory.
Three new functions have been added:
nc_open_memio, nc_create_mem, and nc_close_memio.
The following new capabilities were added.
1. nc_open_memio() allows the NC_WRITE mode flag
so a chunk of memory can be passed in and be modified
2. nc_create_mem() allows the NC_INMEMORY flag to be set
to cause the created file to be kept in memory.
3. nc_close_mem() allows the final in-memory contents to be
retrieved at the time the file is closed.
4. A special flag, NC_MEMIO_LOCK, is provided to ensure that
the provided memory will not be freed or reallocated.
Note the following.
1. If nc_open_memio() is called with NC_WRITE, and NC_MEMIO_LOCK is not set,
then the netcdf-c library will take control of the incoming memory.
This means that the original memory block should not be freed
but the block returned by nc_close_mem() must be freed.
2. If nc_open_memio() is called with NC_WRITE, and NC_MEMIO_LOCK is set,
then modifications to the original memory may fail if the space available
is insufficient.
Documentation is provided in the file docs/inmemory.md.
A test case is provided: nc_test/tst_inmemory.c driven by
nc_test/run_inmemory.sh
WARNING: changes were made to the dispatch table for
the close entry. From int (*close)(int) to int (*close)(int,void*).
(I hope) metadata mechanism. This mostly just adds new pieces of
code (e.g. nclistmap) and does some minor fixes.
It should be transparent to everything else.
The next set of changes will be the big step.
2. Fixed plugin building (nc_test4/hdf5plugins)
to be done properly by cmake and automake.
4. Duplicated part of the nc_test4 filter test code
in examples/C
An incomplete and untested set of hooks exist
for OS-X in nc_test4/findplugins.in. They need testing.
