The _netcdf_dim_info dataset (in group _netCDF) contains the ids of the shared dimensions, and their length (0 for unlimited dimensions).

The _netcdf_var_info dataset (in group _netCDF) holds an array of compound types which contain the variable ID, and the associated dimension ids.

Global nc_get_varm (int ncid, int varid, const size_t *startp, const size_t *countp, const ptrdiff_t *stridep, const ptrdiff_t *imapp, void *ip)

Use of this family of functions is discouraged, although it will continue to be supported. The reason is the complexity of the algorithm makes its use difficult for users to properly use.

Global NC_LOCK

The following flag currently is ignored, but use in nc_open() or nc_create() may someday support use of advisory locking to prevent multiple writers from clobbering a file

Global NC_LONG

required for backward compatibility.

Global NC_MMAP

Use diskless file with mmap.

Global nc_put_varm (int ncid, int varid, const size_t *startp, const size_t *countp, const ptrdiff_t *stridep, const ptrdiff_t *imapp, const void *op)

Use of this family of functions is discouraged, although it will continue to be supported. The reason is the complexity of the algorithm makes its use difficult for users to properly use.
