Incorporates PR #1668 with an added test and release notes. Not yet final.

DennisHeimbigner and others added 5 commits March 11, 2020 11:25
re: issue #1666

The code in NC_open and NC_create (in dfile.c)
was using improperly testing for leading whitespace chars.
It was treating UTF-8 as whitespace.

Fix is to do tests using unsigned char.

Release Notes       {#RELEASE_NOTES}
=============

\brief Release notes file for the netcdf-c package.

This file contains a high-level description of this package's
evolution. Releases are in reverse chronological order (most recent
first). Note that, as of netcdf 4.2, the `netcdf-c++` and
`netcdf-fortran` libraries have been separated into their own
libraries.

## 4.9.3 - TBD

## 4.9.2 - March 14, 2023

This is the maintenance release which adds support for HDF5 version
1.14.0, in addition to a handful of other changes and bugfixes.

* Fix 'make distcheck' error in run_interop.sh. See [Github
  #????](https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/????).
* Update `nc-config` to remove inclusion from automatically-detected
  `nf-config` and `ncxx-config` files, as the wrong files could be
  included in the output.  This is in support of [GitHub
  #2274](Unidata/netcdf-c#2274).

* Update H5FDhttp.[ch] to work with HDF5 version 1.13.2 and later. See
  [Github #2635](Unidata/netcdf-c#2635).

* [Bug Fix] Update DAP code to enable CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING by
  default. See [Github
  #2630](Unidata/netcdf-c#2630).

* [Bug Fix] Fix byterange failures for certain URLs. See [Github
  #2649](Unidata/netcdf-c#2649).

* [Bug Fix] Fix 'make distcheck' error in run_interop.sh. See [Github
  #2631](Unidata/netcdf-c#2631).

* [Enhancement] Update `nc-config` to remove inclusion from
  automatically-detected `nf-config` and `ncxx-config` files, as the
  wrong files could be included in the output.  This is in support of
  [GitHub #2274](Unidata/netcdf-c#2274).

* [Enhancement] Update H5FDhttp.[ch] to work with HDF5 version
  1.14.0. See [Github
  #2615](Unidata/netcdf-c#2615).

## 4.9.1 - February 2, 2023

## Known Issues

* A test in the `main` branch of `netcdf-cxx4` is broken by this rc; this will
  bear further investigation, but not being treated as a roadblock for the
  release candidate.

* The new document, `netcdf-c/docs/filter_quickstart.md` is in
  rough-draft form.

* Race conditions exist in some of the tests when run concurrently with large
  numbers of processors

  netCDF-4 is maintained in all cases.  See [Github
  #2176](Unidata/netcdf-c#2176).

* [Enhancement] Add ability to set dataset alignment for netcdf-4/HDF5
  files. See [Github #2206](Unidata/netcdf-c#2206).

* [Bug Fix] Improve UTF8 support on windows so that it can use utf8
  natively. See [Github #2222](Unidata/netcdf-c#2222).

  `cmake` and `configure` are, respectively `-DENABLE_LIBXML2` and
  `--(enable/disable)-libxml2`. Both of these options defaul to 'on/enabled'.
  When disabled, the bundled `ezxml` XML interpreter is used regardless of
  whether `libxml2` is present on the system.

* [Enhancement] Support optional use of libxml2, otherwise default to ezxml. See
  [Github #2135](Unidata/netcdf-c#2135) -- H/T to

* [Bug Fix] Store NCZarr fillvalue as a singleton instead of a 1-element
  array. See [Github #2017](Unidata/netcdf-c#2017).

* [Bug Fixes] The netcdf-c library was incorrectly determining the scope of
  dimension; similar to the type scope problem. See [Github
  #2012](Unidata/netcdf-c#2012) for more information.

* [Bug Fix] Re-enable DAP2 authorization testing. See [Github
  #2011](Unidata/netcdf-c#2011).

  #2000](Unidata/netcdf-c#2000) for more information.

* [Bug Fix] Fix `make distcheck` issue in `nczarr_test/` directory. See [Github
  #2007](Unidata/netcdf-c#2007).

* [Bug Fix] Fix bug in NCclosedir in dpathmgr.c. See [Github

## 4.8.0 - March 30, 2021

* [Enhancement] Bump the NC_DISPATCH_VERSION from 2 to 3, and as a side effect,
  unify the definition of NC_DISPATCH_VERSION so it only needs to be defined in
  CMakeLists.txt and configure.ac. See [Github
  #1945](Unidata/netcdf-c#1945) for more information.

* [Enhancement] Provide better cross platform path name management. This
  converts paths for various platforms (e.g. Windows, MSYS, etc.) so that they
  are in the proper format for the executing platform. See [Github
  #1958](Unidata/netcdf-c#1958) for more information.

* [Bug Fixes] The nccopy program was treating -d0 as turning deflation on rather
  than interpreting it as "turn off deflation". See [Github
  #1944](Unidata/netcdf-c#1944) for more information.

* [Enhancement] Add support for storing NCZarr data in zip files. See [Github
  #1942](Unidata/netcdf-c#1942) for more information.

* [Bug Fixes] Make fillmismatch the default for DAP2 and DAP4; too many servers
  ignore this requirement.

* [Bug Fixes] Fix some memory leaks in NCZarr, fix a bug with long strides in
  NCZarr. See [Github #1913](Unidata/netcdf-c#1913) for
  more information.

* [Enhancement] Add some optimizations to NCZarr, dosome cleanup of code cruft,
  add some NCZarr test cases, add a performance test to NCZarr. See [Github
  #1908](Unidata/netcdf-c#1908) for more information.

* [Bug Fix] Implement a better chunk cache system for NCZarr. The cache now uses
  extendible hashing plus a linked list for provide a combination of
  expandibility, fast access, and LRU behavior. See [Github
  #1887](Unidata/netcdf-c#1887) for more information.

* [Enhancement] Provide .rc fields for S3 authentication: HTTP.S3.ACCESSID and
  HTTP.S3.SECRETKEY.

* [Enhancement] Give the client control over what parts of a DAP2 URL are URL
  encoded (i.e. %xx). This is to support the different decoding rules that
  servers apply to incoming URLS. See [Github
  #1884](Unidata/netcdf-c#1884) for more information.

* [Bug Fix] Fix incorrect time offsets from `ncdump -t`, in some cases when the
  time `units` attribute contains both a **non-zero** time-of-day, and a time
  zone suffix containing the letter "T", such as "UTC".  See [Github
  #1866](Unidata/netcdf-c#1866) for more information.

* [Bug Fix] Cleanup the NCZarr S3 build options. See [Github
  #1869](Unidata/netcdf-c#1869) for more information.

* [Bug Fix] Support aligned access for selected ARM processors.  See [Github
  #1871](Unidata/netcdf-c#1871) for more information.

* [Documentation] Migrated the documents in the NUG/ directory to the dedicated
  NUG repository found at https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf

* [Bug Fix] Revert the internal filter code to simplify it. From the user's
  point of view, the only visible change should be that (1) the functions that
  convert text to filter specs have had their signature reverted and renamed and
  have been moved to netcdf_aux.h, and (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 complex structures.

* [Bug Fix] If the HDF5 byte-range Virtual File Driver is available )HDf5 1.10.6
  or later) then use it because it has better performance than the one currently
  built into the netcdf library.

* [Bug Fix] Fixed byte-range support with cURL > 7.69. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1798].

* [Enhancement] Added new test for using compression with parallel I/O:
  nc_test4/tst_h_par_compress.c. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1784].

* [Bug Fix] Don't return error for extra calls to nc_redef() for netCDF/HDF5
  files, unless classic model is in use. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1779].

* [Enhancement] Added new parallel I/O benchmark program to mimic NOAA UFS data
  writes, built when --enable-benchmarks is in configure. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1777].

* [Bug Fix] Now allow szip to be used on variables with unlimited dimension
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1774].

* [Enhancement] Add support for cloud storage using a variant of the Zarr
  storage format. Warning: this feature is highly experimental and is subject to
  rapid evolution
  [https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/blogs/developer/en/entry/overview-of-zarr-support-in].

* [Bug Fix] Fix nccopy to properly set default chunking parameters when not
  otherwise specified. This can significantly improve performance in selected
  cases. Note that if seeing slow performance with nccopy, then, as a
  work-around, specifically set the chunking
  parameters. [Unidata/netcdf-c#1763].

* [Bug Fix] Fix some protocol bugs/differences between the netcdf-c library and
  the OPeNDAP Hyrax server. Also cleanup checksum handling
  [https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1712].* [Bug Fix] IMPORTANT: Ncgen
  was not properly handling large data sections. The problem manifests as
  incorrect ordering of data in the created file. Aside from examining the file
  with ncdump, the error can be detected by running ncgen with the -lc flag (to
  produce a C file). Examine the file to see if any variable is written in pieces
  as opposed to a single call to nc_put_vara. If multiple calls to nc_put_vara are
  used to write a variable, then it is probable that the data order is
  incorrect. Such multiple writes can occur for large variables and especially
  when one of the dimensions is unlimited.

* [Bug Fix] Add necessary __declspec declarations to allow compilation of netcdf
  library without causing errors or (_declspec related) warnings
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1725].

* [Enhancement] When a filter is applied twice with different
parameters, then the second set is used for writing the dataset
[Unidata/netcdf-c#1713].

* [Bug Fix] Now larger cache settings are used for sequential HDF5 file creates/opens on parallel I/O capable builds; see [Github #1716](Unidata/netcdf-c#1716) for more information.

* [Bug Fix] Add functions to libdispatch/dnotnc4.c to support
   dispatch table operations that should work for any dispatch
   table, even if they do not do anything; functions such as
   nc_inq_var_filter [Unidata/netcdf-c#1693].

* [Bug Fix] Fixed a scalar annotation error when scalar == 0; see [Github
  #1707](Unidata/netcdf-c#1707) for more information.

* [Bug Fix] Use proper CURLOPT values for VERIFYHOST and VERIFYPEER; the
  semantics for VERIFYHOST in particular changed. Documented in NUG/DAP2.md. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1684].

* [Bug Fix][cmake] Correct an issue with parallel filter test logic in
  CMake-based builds.

* [Bug Fix] Now allow nc_inq_var_deflate()/nc_inq_var_szip() to be called for
  all formats, not just HDF5. Non-HDF5 files return NC_NOERR and report no
  compression in use. This reverts behavior that was changed in the 4.7.4
  release. See [Unidata/netcdf-c#1691].

* [Bug Fix] Compiling on a big-endian machine exposes some missing forward
  delcarations in dfilter.c.

* [File Change] Change from HDF5 v1.6 format compatibility, back to v1.8
  compatibility, for newly created files.  The superblock changes from version 0
  back to version 2.  An exception is when using libhdf5 deprecated versions
  1.10.0 and 1.10.1, which can only create v1.6 compatible format.  Full
  backward read/write compatibility for netCDF-4 is maintained in all cases.
  See [Github #951](Unidata/netcdf-c#951).

## 4.7.4 - March 27, 2020

* [Windows] Bumped packaged HDF5 to 1.10.6, HDF4 to 4.2.14, and libcurl to
  7.60.0.

* [Enhancement] Support has been added for HDF5-1.12.0.  See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1528].

* [Bug Fix] Correct behavior for the command line utilities when directly
  accessing a directory using utf8 characters. See
  [Github #1669] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1669),
  [Github #1668] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1668) and
  [Github #1666] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1666) for more information.

* [Bug Fix] Attempts to set filters or chunked storage on scalar vars will now
  return NC_EINVAL. Scalar vars cannot be chunked, and only chunked vars can
  have filters. Previously the library ignored these attempts, and always
  storing scalars as contiguous storage. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1644].

* [Enhancement] Support has been added for multiple filters per variable.  See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1584].

* [Enhancement] Now nc_inq_var_szip retuns 0 for parameter values if szip is not
  in use for var. See [Unidata/netcdf-c#1618].

* [Enhancement] Now allow parallel I/O with filters, for HDF5-1.10.3 and
  later. See [Unidata/netcdf-c#1473].

* [Enhancement] Increased default size of cache buffer to 16 MB, from 4
  MB. Increased number of slots to 4133. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1541].

* [Enhancement] Allow zlib compression to be used with parallel I/O writes, if
  HDF5 version is 1.10.3 or greater. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1580].

* [Enhancement] Restore use of szip compression when writing data (including
  writing in parallel if HDF5 version is 1.10.3 or greater). See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1546].

* [Enhancement] Enable use of compact storage option for small vars in
  netCDF/HDF5 files. See [Unidata/netcdf-c#1570].

* [Enhancement] Updated benchmarking program bm_file.c to better handle very
  large files. See [Unidata/netcdf-c#1555].

* [Enhancement] Added version number to dispatch table, and now check version
  with nc_def_user_format(). See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1599].

* [Bug Fix] Fixed user setting of MPI launcher for parallel I/O HDF5 test in
  h5_test. See [Unidata/netcdf-c#1626].

* [Bug Fix] Fixed problem of growing memory when netCDF-4 files were opened and
  closed. See [Unidata/netcdf-c#1575 and
  Unidata/netcdf-c#1571].

* [Enhancement] Increased size of maximum allowed name in HDF4 files to
  NC_MAX_NAME. See [Unidata/netcdf-c#1631].

## 4.7.3 - November 20, 2019

* [Bug Fix]Fixed an issue where installs from tarballs will not properly compile
  in parallel environments.

* [Bug Fix] Library was modified so that rewriting the same attribute happens
  without deleting the attribute, to avoid a limit on how many times this may be
  done in HDF5. This fix was thought to be in 4.6.2 but was not. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#350].

* [Enhancement] Add a dispatch version number to netcdf_meta.h and
  libnetcdf.settings, in case we decide to change dispatch table in future. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1469].

* [Bug Fix] Now testing that endianness can only be set on atomic ints and
  floats. See [Unidata/netcdf-c#1479].

* [Bug Fix] Fix for subtle error involving var and unlimited dim of the same
  name, but unrelated, in netCDF-4. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1496].

* [Enhancement] Update for attribute documentation. See
  [Unidata/netcdf-c#1512].

* [Bug Fix][Enhancement] Corrected assignment of anonymous (a.k.a. phony)
  dimensions in an HDF5 file. Now when a dataset uses multiple dimensions of the
  same size, netcdf assumes they are different dimensions. See [GitHub
  #1484](Unidata/netcdf-c#1484) for more information.

## 4.7.2 - October 22, 2019

* [Bug Fix][Enhancement] Various bug fixes and enhancements.

* [Bug Fix][Enhancement] Corrected an issue where protected memory was being
  written to with some pointer slight-of-hand.  This has been in the code for a
  while, but appears to be caught by the compiler on OSX, under circumstances
  yet to be completely nailed down.  See
  [GitHub #1486] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1486) for more information.

* [Enhancement] [Parallel IO] Added support for parallel functions in MSVC. See
  [Github #1492](Unidata/netcdf-c#1492) for more
  information.

* [Enhancement] Added a function for changing the ncid of an open file.  This
  function should only be used if you know what you are doing, and is meant to
  be used primarily with PIO integration. See
  [GitHub #1483] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1483) and
  [GitHub #1487] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1487) for more information.

## 4.7.1 - August 27, 2019

* [Enhancement] Added unit_test directory, which contains unit tests for the
  libdispatch and libsrc4 code (and any other directories that want to put unit
  tests there). Use --disable-unit-tests to run without unit tests (ex. for code
  coverage analysis). See
  [GitHub #1458] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1458).

* [Bug Fix] Remove obsolete _CRAYMPP and LOCKNUMREC macros from code. Also
  brought documentation up to date in man page. These macros were used in
  ancient times, before modern parallel I/O systems were developed. Programmers
  interested in parallel I/O should see nc_open_par() and nc_create_par(). See
  [GitHub #1459](Unidata/netcdf-c#1459).

* [Enhancement] Remove obsolete and deprecated functions nc_set_base_pe() and
  nc_inq_base_pe() from the dispatch table. (Both functions are still supported
  in the library, this is an internal change only.) See [GitHub
  #1468](Unidata/netcdf-c#1468).

* [Bug Fix] Reverted nccopy behavior so that if no -c parameters are given, then
  any default chunking is left to the netcdf-c library to decide. See [GitHub
  #1436](Unidata/netcdf-c#1436).

## 4.7.0 - April 29, 2019

* [Enhancement] Updated behavior of `pkgconfig` and `nc-config` to allow the use
  of the `--static` flags, e.g. `nc-config --libs --static`, which will show
  information for linking against `libnetcdf` statically. See
  [Github #1360] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1360) and
  [Github #1257] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1257) for more information.

* [Enhancement] Provide byte-range reading of remote datasets. This allows
  read-only access to, for example, Amazon S3 objects and also Thredds Server
  datasets via the HTTPService access method.  See
  [GitHub #1251] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1251).

* Update the license from the home-brewed NetCDF license to the standard
  3-Clause BSD License.  This change does not result in any new restrictions; it
  is merely the adoption of a standard, well-known and well-understood license
  in place of the historic NetCDF license written at Unidata.  This is part of a
  broader push by Unidata to adopt modern, standardized licensing.

## 4.6.3 - February 28, 2019

* [Bug Fix] Correctly generated `netcdf.pc` generated either by `configure` or
  `cmake`.  If linking against a static netcdf, you would need to pass the
  `--static` argument to `pkg-config` in order to list all of the downstream
  dependencies.  See
  [Github #1324](Unidata/netcdf-c#1324) for more information.

* Now always write hidden coordinates attribute, which allows faster file opens
  when present. See
  [Github #1262](Unidata/netcdf-c#1262) for more information.

* Some fixes for rename, including fix for renumbering of varids after a rename
  (#1307), renaming var to dim without coordinate var. See
  [Github #1297] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1297).

* Fix of NULL parameter causing segfaults in put_vars functions. See
   [Github #1265] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1265) for more information.

* Fix of --enable-benchmark benchmark tests
   [Github #1211] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1211)

* Update the license from the home-brewed NetCDF license to the standard
  3-Clause BSD License.  This change does not result in any new restrictions; it
  is merely the adoption of a standard, well-known and well-understood license
  in place of the historic NetCDF license written at Unidata.  This is part of a
  broader push by Unidata to adopt modern, standardized licensing.

* [BugFix] Corrected DAP-related issues on big-endian machines. See
  [Github #1321] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1321),
  [Github #1302] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1302) for more information.

* [BugFix][Enhancement] Various and sundry bugfixes and performance
  enhancements, thanks to \@edhartnett, \@gsjarrdema, \@t-b, \@wkliao, and all
  of our other contributors.

* [Enhancement] Extended `nccopy -F` syntax to support multiple variables with a
  single invocation. See
  [Github #1311](Unidata/netcdf-c#1311) for more information.

* [BugFix] Corrected an issue where DAP2 was incorrectly converting signed
  bytes, resulting in an erroneous error message under some circumstances. See
  [GitHub #1317] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1317) for more
  information.  See
  [Github #1319] (Unidata/netcdf-c#1319) for related information.

* [BugFix][Enhancement] Modified `nccopy` so that `_NCProperties` is not copied
  over verbatim but is instead generated based on the version of `libnetcdf`
  used when copying the file.  Additionally, `_NCProperties` are displayed
  if/when associated with a netcdf3 file, now. See
  [GitHub#803] (Unidata/netcdf-c#803) for more information.
