Unclear error message for unsupported file format #1471

Closed eschnett closed 11 months ago

I tried to write a JSON-formatted file with openPMD_api 0.15.1. I received the error message Unknown file format! Did you specify a file ending?.

It would be nice if the error message included the file name and the suffix that openPMD doesn't understand.

Thank you for the report and @franzpoeschel for the fix.

This will be part of the 0.15.2 release.
