Thanks Christian for confirming it.  It helps me to design interoperable HDF5 
data product.

Hello H. Joe Lee,

I am not the original author of the HDF5 Java code, but looking at [1] and [2], 
it's pretty clear that netcdf-java only supports gzip, shuffle, and fletcher32. 
It seems like there were also plans for "szip", "nbit", and "scaleoffset", but 
that functionality hasn't been implemented.
Cheers,
Christian

Hi,

  I'm looking for information about the full list of HDF5 filters [1]
supported by netcdf-java. I checked the code [2] and it seems that
netcdf-java supports fletcher32, shuffle, and gzip. Does it also
support scale-offset filter / n-bit / and custom filter like LZF [3]
which is used in h5py?
