Patched libdap2/ncdap3.c to fix DAP performance bug remotely accessing large files (> 2GiB).
Patched ncdump/dumplib.c to properly escape special characters in CDL output from ncdump for netCDF-4 string data.
* Stop looking for xdr if --disable-dap is used.
* Don't try to run (some) fortran configure tests on machines with no fortran.
* Allow nccopy to rechunk with chunksizes larger than current dimension lengths.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Patched version of 3.6.0 to fix potentially serious
bug described at
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/docs/known_problems.html#cdf2-bug
Changes 3.6.0:
Added texinfo source for the documentation.
Added large file tests to Windows directory in distribution.
Modified win32 visual studio project files so that m4
is no longer required to build netcdf under visual studio.
Modified rules.make to use install instead of cp,
fixing install problem for cygwin users.
Modified configure/install stuff to support HP-UX.
Modified configure/install stuff to support G95.
In the f90 interface, applied Arnaud Desitter's fixes
to correct mismatches between scalar and array
arguments, eliminating (legitimate) complaints by the
NAGWare f95 compiler. Also fixed bugs introduced in
3.6.0-beta5 in the mapped array interfaces.
framework. The list of changes include:
* Modify compiler.mk so that "c" is always prepended to USE_LANGUAGES,
so we no longer need to say it in package Makefiles. Packages
should now append to USE_LANGUAGES instead of setting it.
* Create mk/compiler/f2c.mk which implements another pseudo-compiler
"f2c" that may be used with any C compiler backend, e.g.
PKGSRC_COMPILER= f2c ccache gcc
* Teach the various "real" compiler files, e.g., sunpro.mk, mipspro.mk,
etc., to use f2c if the native Fortran compiler isn't present.
Packages that use Fortran should now simply include the line:
USE_LANGUAGES+= fortran
in the package Makefile.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
libstdc++ in gcc3.
when defined, USE_GCC_SHLIB ensures that the correct rpath is passed
to the linker, and a full dependency on the compiler package is
registered.
packages which define USE_GCC_SHLIB should not include
mk/gcc.buildlink2.mk (or gcc{,3}/buildlink2.mk) as it is handled
automatically.
Some relevant changes:
Fixed miswriting of netCDF header when exiting define
mode. Because the header was always written correctly
later, this was only a problem if there was another
reader of the netCDF file.
Fixed explicit synchronizing between netCDF writer and
readers via the nc_sync(), nf_sync(), and ncsync()
functions.
Fixed a number of bugs related to attempts to support
shrinking the header in netCDF files when attributes
are rewritten or deleted. Also fixed the problem that
nc__endef() did not work as intended in reserving
extra space in the file header, since the extra space
would be compacted again on calling nc_close().
Fixed the "redef bug" that occurred when nc_enddef()
or nf_enddef() is called after nc_redef() or
nf_redef(), the file is growing such that the new
beginning of a record variable is in the next "chunk",
and the size of at least one record variable exceeds
the chunk size (see netcdf.3 man page for a
description of this tuning parameter and how to set
it). This bug resulted in corruption of some values
in other variables than the one being added.
The "__" tuning functions for the Fortran interface,
nf__create, nf__open, and nf__enddef, are now
documented in the Fortran interface man pages.
Changed the extension of C++ files from ".cc" to ".cpp".
Renamed the C++ interface header file "netcdfcpp.h"
instead of "netcdf.hh", changing "netcdf.hh" to
include "netcdfcpp.h" for backward compatibility.
Fixed bug in ncdump using same CDL header name when
called with multiple files.
Added new NULL data type NC_NAT (Not A Type) to
facilitate checking whether a variable object has had
its type defined yet, for example when working with
packed values.
Fixed use of compile-time macro NO_NETCDF_2 so it
really doesn't include old netCDF-2 interfaces, as
intended.
Fixed C++ friend declarations to conform to C++ standard.
Add a new USE_LIBTOOL definition that uses the libtool package instead of
pkglibtool which is now considered outdated.
USE_PKGLIBTOOL is available for backwards compatibility with old packages
but is deprecated for new packages.
