Hello, My apologies, I thought I had responded to this. The API bump was made during the release process, following the guidelines as outlined here: * https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Updating-version-info.html#Updating-version-info During the release process, an ABI/API compatibility report is generated using `abi-tracker` and related tool. As I recall, the addition/modification/removal of public-facing functions, coupled with the version-info updating guidelines linked above, resulted in the API bump you reference. I don't have that report in front of me, but it can be generated fairly easily. If you're interested and have access to docker, you can run it as follows: $ docker run --rm -it -e OLDVER='v4.7.3' -e NEWVER='v4.7.4' -v $(pwd):/output unidata/ncabi This assumes you are in a temporary directory where the output html report can be dumped. Alternatively, I can make these reports available on the Github release page during the release process. Your comment about mentioning the bump in the release notes is taken; my apologies for the omission! -Ward On Sat, Jul 25, 2020 at 1:47 PM Marco Atzeri <marco.atzeri@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 03.04.2020 12:50, Marco Atzeri wrote: > > Hi Dev, > > I am a bit surprised to find a API bump between two minor release > > > > libnetcdf_la_LDFLAGS = -version-info 17:1:2 > > > > libnetcdf_la_LDFLAGS = -version-info 18:0:0 > > > > specially as there is no notice on the release news > > > > https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases > > > > Has the binary compatibility been broken or it is a mistake ? > > > > Regards > > Marco > > > > ping ? > > _______________________________________________ > NOTE: All exchanges posted to Unidata maintained email lists are > recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and made publicly > available through the web.
