| 10 |  |  | 
| 11 |  | NetCDF-4 added support for hierarchical groups within netCDF datasets. | 
| 12 |  |  | 
| 13 |  | Groups are identified with a ncid, which identifies both the open | 
| 14 |  | file, and the group within that file. When a file is opened with | 
| 15 |  | nc_open or nc_create, the ncid for the root group of that file is | 
| 16 |  | provided. Using that as a starting point, users can add new groups, or | 
| 17 |  | list and navigate existing groups or rename a group. | 
| 18 |  |  | 
| 19 |  | All netCDF calls take a ncid which determines where the call will take | 
| 20 |  | its action. For example, the nc_def_var function takes a ncid as its | 
| 21 |  | first parameter. It will create a variable in whichever group its ncid | 
| 22 |  | refers to. Use the root ncid provided by nc_create or nc_open to | 
| 23 |  | create a variable in the root group. Or use nc_def_grp to create a | 
| 24 |  | group and use its ncid to define a variable in the new group. | 
| 25 |  |  | 
| 26 |  | Variable are only visible in the group in which they are defined. The | 
| 27 |  | same applies to attributes. “Global” attributes are associated with | 
| 28 |  | the group whose ncid is used. | 
| 29 |  |  | 
| 30 |  | Dimensions are visible in their groups, and all child groups. | 
| 31 |  |  | 
| 32 |  | Group operations are only permitted on netCDF-4 files - that is, files | 
| 33 |  | created with the HDF5 flag in nc_create(). Groups are not compatible | 
| 34 |  | with the netCDF classic data model, so files created with the | 
| 35 |  | ::NC_CLASSIC_MODEL file cannot contain groups (except the root group). | 
| 36 |  |  | 
| 37 |  | Encoding both the open file id and group id in a single integer | 
| 38 |  | currently limits the number of groups per netCDF-4 file to no more | 
| 39 |  | than 32767.  Similarly, the number of simultaneously open netCDF-4 | 
| 40 |  | files in one program context is limited to 32767. |
