Version 4.7.3 of the netCDF-C library is now available.
Changes in the netCDF-C library include (but are not limited to):
- Fixed an issue where installs from tarballs would not properly compile in parallel environments.
- The 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.
- Add a dispatch version number to
netcdf_meta.h
andlibnetcdf.settings
, in case we decide to change dispatch table in future. - Now testing that endianness can only be set on atomic ints and floats.
- Fix for subtle error involving var and unlimited dim of the same name, but unrelated, in netCDF-4.
- Update for attribute documentation.
- 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.
