Description: Provides a self-contained, static build of the 'HDF5'
(Hierarchical Data Format 5) 'C' library (release 2.1.1) 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 .
