Headers and Static Libraries for 'HDF5' |
Statements
Provides a self-contained, static build of the 'HDF5' (Hierarchical Data Format 5) 'C' library (release 2.2.0) for R package developers. Designed for use in the 'LinkingTo' field, it enables zero-dependency integration by building the library entirely from source during installation. Additionally, it compiles and internally links a comprehensive suite of advanced compression filters and their 'HDF5' plugins (Zstd, LZ4, Blosc/Blosc2, Snappy, ZFP, Bzip2, LZF, Bitshuffle, szip, and gzip). These plugins are integrated out-of-the-box, allowing downstream packages to utilize high-performance compression directly through the standard 'HDF5' API while keeping the underlying third-party headers fully encapsulated. 'HDF5' is developed by The HDF Group <https://www.hdfgroup.org/>.
