[Bug 401626] New: Update wish: NetCDF 3 -> 4 (and thus hdf5 1.6 -> 1.8.1)
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=401626 Summary: Update wish: NetCDF 3 -> 4 (and thus hdf5 1.6 -> 1.8.1) Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Development AssignedTo: pth@novell.com ReportedBy: burnus@gmx.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- NetCDF, http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/, provides array-oriented data access for the languages C, C++ and Fortran. With version 4, one is finally able to optionally write HDF4 conform files. (The old version 3 file format is still supported.) Announcement for NetCDF 4: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/mailing_lists/archives/netcdfgroup/2008-June/002... NetCDF4 needs HDF5 in a newer version (1.8.1 instead of 1.6 as shipped in openSUSE). HDF5 is available from http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/ Note: openSUSE's NetCDF .spec does not list Fortran in the description, even though libnetcdf-devel ships with with the .mod and .inc; please add it ;-) Changes in NetCDF (3->4): * The use of groups to organize datasets. * New unsigned integer data types, 64-bit integer types, and a string type. * A user defined compound type, which can be constructed by users to match a C struct or other arbitrary organization of types. * A variable length array type. * Support for parallel I/O. Changes in HDF5 (1.6 -> 1.8): Enhanced group object management Enhanced attribute management and more efficient meta data handling Expanded datatype features Creation order tracking and indexing Improved meta data caching and cache control UTF-8 encoding New I/O filters: n-bit and scale+offset compression New link (H5L) and object (H5O) interfaces and features External and user-defined links New high-level APIs: HDF5 Packet Table (H5PT) and HDF5 Dimension Scale (H5DS) C++ and Fortran interfaces for older high-level APIs: H5Lite (H5LT), H5Image (H5IM), and H5Table (H5TB) New and improved tools http://hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/ADGuide/WhatsNew180.html -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
