Greetings!

Currently, the only way to write netCDF-4 files is through the C interface:

https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/current/netcdf-java/reference/netcdf4Clibrary.html

As it stands, there isn't a pure implementation of HDF5 outside of the
C library, so pretty much everyone who writes netCDF needs to go
through the C library.
