Note that this version is using cftime instead of the netcdftime!
Full changelog
* fixed bug in detection of CDF5 library support in setup.py (pull request
#736, issue #713).
* fixed reading of variables with zero-length dimensions in NETCDF3_CLASSIC
files (issue #743).
* allow integer-like objects in VLEN slices (not just python ints, issue
#526, pull request #757).
* treating _FillValue as a valid_min/valid_max was too surprising, despite
the fact the thet netcdf docs 'attribute best practices' suggests that
clients should to this. Revert this change from issue #576 (issue #761).
* remove netcdftime, since it is now a separate package. date2num, num2date
and date2index still importable from netCDF4.
* fix 'Unreachable code' cython warning (issue #767).
* Change behavior of string attributes so that nc.stringatt = ['foo','bar']
produces an vlen string array attribute in NETCDF4, instead of concatenating
into a single string ('foobar'). In NETCDF3/NETCDF4_CLASSIC, an IOError
is now raised, instead of writing 'foobar'. Issue #770.
* fix loading of enum type names (issue #775).
* make sure missing_value applies only to scaled short integers if
auto-scaling is on (issue #777).
* automatically create views of compound types with character arrays as
numpy strings (issue #773). Can be disabled using
'set_auto_chartostring(False)'. Numpy structured
array dtypes with 'SN' string subtypes can now be used to
define netcdf compound types (they get converted to ('S1',N)
character array types automatically).
* always return masked array by default, even if there are no
masked values (too surprising to get ndarray or MaskedArray depending
on slice, issue #785).
* treat valid_min/valid_max/_FillValue/missing_value as unsigned
integers if _Unsigned is set (to mimic behaviour of netcdf-java).
Conversion to unsigned type now occurs before masking and scale/offset
operation. Issue #794.
I switched to GitHub tarball b/c the PyPI release is pending due to an issue with building wheels. See https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf4-python/issues/798
