Description

I configured conduit with zfp by passing ZFP_DIR. This works while configuring. At build time I then see this error message:

[16:57:18] In file included from /workspace/srcdir/conduit-v0.9.3/src/libs/relay/conduit_relay_zfp.cpp:11:0:
[16:57:18] /workspace/srcdir/conduit-v0.9.3/src/libs/relay/conduit_relay_zfp.hpp:17:23: fatal error: zfparray1.h: No such file or directory
[16:57:18] compilation terminated.
[16:57:18] make[2]: *** [libs/relay/CMakeFiles/conduit_relay.dir/build.make:174: libs/relay/CMakeFiles/conduit_relay.dir/conduit_relay_zfp.cpp.o] Error 1

There is indeed no file zfparray1.h that is provided by the zfp library version 1.0.1 (the most recent release). There is only a file zfp/array1.h.

Research direction

Start by inspecting src/libs/relay/conduit_relay_zfp.hpp and src/libs/relay/conduit_relay_zfp.cpp, then review how ZFP_DIR is used during configuration. Rebuild with zfp 1.0.1 and confirm the relay library compiles without the missing zfparray1.h header.
