nc4fortran - Read character improvement, install and build type defaults

• Read character automatically trims to cnullchar if present, making it cleaner / easier to read character values

  • build type default release

nc4fortran - Better FindHDF5 and compiler options

- CMake

nc4fortran - more robust across platforms

• action= rw, w, r, r+, a for clarity

FindHDF5 more robust

nc4fortran - BUGFIX: default dim names start with variable name

this avoids stomping of dims by dissimilar shaped variables when dim names are not specified.

- CMake
Published by scivision almost 5 years ago

nc4fortran - remove open(status=) parameter, use action instead

The h%open(..., status=) parameter is DEPRECATED and is ignored. Its functionality was duplicated by the h%open(..., action=) parameter.

As before:

• h%open(...) defaults to action='rw', which opens or creates a file.
• action='w' erases an existing file if present.
• action='r+' or action='r' errors if file doesn't exist

nc4fortran - FindHDF5 optim, note cmake >= 3.20 needed for autobuild

• Note with error message that CMake >= 3.20 needed for autobuild of NetCDF (let us know if this is an issue, we could go back to CMake 3.15, with less reliability)
• add intel compiler optimization flags
• don't override CMAKEINSTALLPREFIX for nc4fortran used via CMake FetchContent

nc4fortran - add auto-close destructor

using best principles of object-oriented programming, add a auto-closing file destructor, such that when netcdf_file leaves procedure scope, the file data is flushed and the file is closed.

nc4fortran - fix install, add examples, remove unused module

• remove unused module
• make pathlib submodule to avoid name clash
• improve install
• add examples

nc4fortran - expand testing, enable compression, add methods

• add methods: ischunked, iscontig, chunks
• enable compression with auto-chunking
• expand testing like h5fortran

- CMake

nc4fortran - better feature parity and testing like h5fortran

add netcdf_file methods:

• read_attribute
• write_attribute
• ndims
• flush

add functions * ncexist * isnetcdf

allow variable rewrite. Numerous bugfixes

- CMake
Published by scivision almost 6 years ago

nc4fortran - use reader, writer templates

due to the high level of code duplication across array rank (dimension), we use CMake or Meson configure_file() to simply inject this code for each dimension. This makes the program more robust. If we instead used Fortran select rank we would still need a template, and it wasn't immediately clear there would be a benefit from this vs. the current approach.

nc4fortran - make more robust, add properties

add properties:

• status='scratch' a file that will be deleted on close, for file-based API
• h%is_open is the file opened, this is used internally to give errors if user tries to access file before initializing or after finalizing

Make CMake build and run tests in parallel.

nc4fortran - quality, robustness

• use native CMake functionality instead of custom

nc4fortran - add %exist('/foo') method, bugfix

- CMake

nc4fortran - ierr optional, add tests

Like h5fortran, nc4fortran ierr parameter is now optional. If an error occurs and ierr is not present, nc4fortran will raise error stop.

increased test coverage and modularized test coverage

reduced redundant code

nc4fortran - harmonize with h5fortran

use naming scheme and cmake / meson layout similar to h5fortran

- CMake
Published by scivision over 6 years ago

nc4fortran - prototype

prepared for use in other projects via FetchContent

deduped error print code

put Fortran standard unlink() for robustness--netcdf open options didn't seem clear as to how to overwrite file while staying in modern mode. otherwise would have to bitwise AND?
