In HDF5 1.12.1, this was changed from optional to required per the changelog:
>H5Epush_ret() is a function-like macro that has been changed to
>contain a `do {} while(0)` loop. Consequently, a trailing semicolon
>is now required to end the `while` statement. Previously, a trailing
>semi would work, but was not mandatory.
This should be backward compatible with older version of HDF5.

Improve the error message and location that is reported when reading a filter with a variable that uses a filter that is not available on the reading platform.
This requires checking the availability of the filter, recording it, and failing when any attempt is made to read or write that variable. A test case was added for this in tst_filter.sh. Also, LOG level 0 message is generated giving the variable and the filter id.
Note that by design if there is no attempt to read or write the variable, then no error is reported; this means that, for example, ncdump -h will list the filter even though it is not actually available. This is important for allowing a user to see the filter details.
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.
The XArray implementation that uses Zarr for storage
provides a mechanism to simulate named dimensions.
It does this by adding a per-variable attribute called
_ARRAY_DIMENSIONS. This attribute contains a list of names
to be matched against the shape values of the variable.
In effect a named dimension is created with the name
_ARRAY_DIMENSIONS(i) and length shape(i) for all i
in range 0..rank(variable).
Both read and write support is provided.
This XArray support is only invoked if the mode value
of "xarray" is defined. So for example, as in this URL.
````
https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/dataset#mode=nczarr,xarray,s3
````
Note that the "xarray" mode flag also implies mode flag "zarr", so the above
is equivalent to this URL.
````
https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/dataset#mode=nczarr,zarr,xarray,s3
````
The primary change to implement this was to unify the handling
of dimension references in libnczarr/zsync.
A test for this and other pure-zarr features was added as
nczarr_test/run_purezarr.sh
Other changes:
* Make sure distcheck leaves no files around.
* Change the special attribute flag DIMSCALEFLAG to HIDDENATTRFLAG
to support the xarray attribute.
* Annotate the zmap implementations with feature flags such as
WRITEONCE (for zip files).
than HDF5 1.8. This will allow for HDF5 features (VDS, SWMR, new references, etc...)
which may require to have a superblock greater than v2.
See for discussion Ref: Update HDF5 format compatibility Unidata#951
* Replace wholevar with more useful wholechunk optimization
* Add optimization to read multiple values at one time
* Replace NCDEFAULT_get/put_vars with native nczarr versions.

* zdebdispatch.h
* Add more chunking test cases and re-enable run_chunkcases
* If !szip, then suppress deflate interference test
* Make H5Znoop(1) filter produce more information

* 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].

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.

* 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.
The `http` field of the hdf5 info struct is not defined unless `ENABLE_HDF5_ROS3` or `ENABLE_BYTERANGE` or `ENABLE_S3_SDK` is defined. Based on a quick look at the code, I think that the `ENABLE_HDF5_ROS3` define is the relavant one here. Maybe a better fix is to check if any of them are defined...
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.
If NCPROPERTIES_EXTRA (see configure.ac) is defined
but is null or empty, then an extra comma is being generated
at the end of _NCProperties global attribute.
Soln: check for null/empty NCPROPERTIES_EXTRA value.
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.
Older HDF5 libraries do not support virtual datasets but could otherwise
be supported by netCDF4. This change removes the special case to handle
HDF5 virtual datasets if the installed HDF5 version does not support
virtual datasets.
re: Github Issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1826
It turns out that the common get code (NC4_get_vars) in libhdf5
(and libnczarr) has an optimization where it does not attempt to
read from the file if the file is all fill values. Rather it
just fills the output buffer with the fill value. The problem
is that -- in that case -- it forgets that conversion might still be
needed. So the conversion never occurs and the raw bits of
the fill data are stored directly into the memory space.
Solution: move some code around to properly do the
conversion no matter how the data was obtained.
Added a test cases nc_test4/test_fillonly.sh and
nczarr_test/test_fillonlyz.sh
It seems like it is part of the design of HDF5 virtual datasets that
objects within a file remain opened while the files is aready "closed".
Setting the fclose degree to SEMI would cause the library to bail out.
This commit makes nc_test4/tst_virtual_dataset succeed.

In case HDF5 adds more storage specifications, netcdf4 should be able to
cope with them by default. Further specializations could be added
nonetheless.
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.
