[svn-r735] Changes since 19981002 ---------------------- ./src/H5D.c Fill values are working for contiguous datasets now except there are two things that need more support from the data space layer, specifically the ability to form a selection from the difference of two selections. They are (1) extending an external contiguous dataset, (2) optimization by delaying the fill until after the first H5Dwrite(). Renamed H5D_allocate() to H5D_init_storage() since allocation is only part of the story. Added a data space argument so it doesn't have to query the space from the object header -- the space is always available in the caller anyway. Removed `#ifdef HAVE_PARALLEL' from a few places where it wasn't necessary. We don't need it around code that doesn't compile anything from mpi.h or mpio.h. ./src/H5Fistore.c Uncommented H5F_istore_alloc() for non-parallel and moved the `#ifdef HAVE_PARALLEL' just around Kim's barrier. ./src/H5Fmpio.c Wrapped a couple long lines. Got rid of two signed vs. unsigned comparison warnings. ./MANIFEST ./test/Makefile.in ./test/fillval.c [NEW] Added tests for fill values. The contiguous dataset extend test is disabled until H5S_SELECT_DIFF is implemented. ./tools/Makefile.in Fixed a bug where `make test' didn't build the executables first. This should cause the snapshots to start up again. ./Makefile.in Changed to build in `test' directory before `tools' directory. We want the library tests to pass before we even start considering the tools. You can still build and/or test the tools independent of the library tests passing.

This is hdf5-1.1.10 released on Mon Oct 5 15:55:59 CDT 1998
Please refer to the INSTALL file for installation instructions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release is almost fully functional for the entire API defined in the
documentation, see the RELEASE file in this directory for information
specific to this release of the library. The INSTALL file contains
instructions on compiling and installing the library. The INSTALL_parallel
file contains instructions on installing the parallel version of the
library.
Documentation for this release is in the html directory. Start with the
"index.html" in that dictectory.
Four mailing lists are currently set up for use with the HDF5
library.
hdf5 - For general discussion of the HDF5 library with
other users.
hdf5dev - For discussion of the HDF5 library development
with developers and other interested parties.
hdf5announce - For announcements of HDF5 related developments,
not a discussion list.
hdf5cvs - For checkin notices of code development on the library,
not a discussion list.
To subscribe to a list, send mail to "<list>-request@ncsa.uiuc.edu",
(e.g., hdf5-request@ncsa.uiuc.edu) with "subscribe <your e-mail
address> in the _body_ of the message. Messages to be sent to
the list should be sent to "<list>@ncsa.uiuc.edu".
Nearly daily code snapshots are now being provided at the following URL:
ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/pub/outgoing/hdf5/snapshots
Please read the readme file in that directory before working with a library
snapshot.
The HDF5 website is located at http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/
Bugs should be reported to hdfhelp@ncsa.uiuc.edu.
