Description

On a Mac X86 with last system updates one get this building develop branch of thirdPartiesLibs:
../../../silo/src/hdf5_drv/silo_hdf5.c:2173:5: error: call to undeclared function 'zfp_init_zfp'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function declarations [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
zfp_init_zfp();
^

Adding zfh.h solve the issue.

Maybe updating or patching SILO would solve it cleanly ?

Research direction

Start with silo/src/hdf5_drv/silo_hdf5.c at line 2173 and reproduce the develop-branch thirdPartiesLibs build on Mac X86. Check the reported zfh.h addition and determine whether the build succeeds without the undeclared zfp_init_zfp() error; compare whether updating or patching SILO is needed.
