# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_LIB_NETCDF4([serial/parallel])
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   This macro provides tests of the availability of the NetCDF v4 library.
#
#   The optional macro argument should be either 'serial' or 'parallel'. The
#   macro will call nc-config to check the output of the '--has-pnetcdf'
#   option and error out if the requested parallel isn't supported.
#
#   If the optional argument is omitted, no check is made to see if NetCDF
#   has parallel support.
#
#   The macro adds a --with-netcdf4 option accepting one of three values:
#
#     no   - do not check for the NetCDF4 library.
#     yes  - do check for NetCDF4 library in standard locations.
#     path - installation prefix for NetCDF version 4.
#
#   If NetCDF4 is successfully found, this macro calls
#
#     AC_SUBST(NETCDF4_VERSION)
#     AC_SUBST(NETCDF4_CC)
#     AC_SUBST(NETCDF4_CFLAGS)
#     AC_SUBST(NETCDF4_CPPFLAGS)
#     AC_SUBST(NETCDF4_LDFLAGS)
#     AC_SUBST(NETCDF4_LIBS)
#     AC_SUBST(NETCDF4_FC)
#     AC_SUBST(NETCDF4_FFLAGS)
#     AC_SUBST(NETCDF4_FLIBS)
#     AC_DEFINE(HAVE_NETCDF4)
#
#   It also sets
#
#     with_netcdf4="yes"
#     with_netcdf4_fortran="yes"    (if NetCDF has Fortran support)
#     with_netcdf4_parallel="yes"   (if NetCDF has MPI support)
#
#   If NetCDF4 is disabled or not found, this macros sets
#
#     with_netcdf4="no"
#     with_netcdf4_fortran="no"
#
#   Note it does not set with_netcdf4_parallel in this case.
#
#   Your configuration script can test $with_netcdf4 to take any further
#   actions. NETCDF4_{C,CPP,LD}FLAGS may be used when building with C or
#   C++. NETCDF4_F{FLAGS,LIBS} and NETCDF4_LDFLAGS should be used when
#   building Fortran applications.
#
#   To use the macro, one would code one of the following in "configure.ac"
#   before AC_OUTPUT:
#
#     1) dnl Check for NetCDF4 support
#        AX_LIB_NETCDF4()
#
#     2) dnl Check for serial NetCDF4 support
#        AX_LIB_NETCDF4([serial])
#
#     3) dnl Check for parallel NetCDF4 support
#        AX_LIB_NETCDF4([parallel])
#
#   One could test $with_netcdf4 for the outcome or display it as follows
#
#     echo "NetCDF v4 support:  $with_netcdf4"
#
#   One could also for example, override the default CC in "configure.ac" to
#   enforce compilation with the compiler that NetCDF v4 was built with:
#
#     AX_LIB_NETCDF4([parallel])
#     if test "$with_netcdf4" = "yes"; then
#             CC="$NETCDF4_CC"
#     else
#             AC_MSG_ERROR([Unable to find NetCDF4, we need parallel NetCDF4.])
#     fi
