[svn-r985] Checking in changes from "HDF5 Release 1.0" CVS branch that have not yet been checked into "HDF5 Development" branch. General ======= Various "copy edit" types of repairs. Revisions to document cross-linking. Added structural links tying all docs together (banners at top and bottom of documents, similar to Reference Manual banners of the Beta release). Set background color to white in all documents. NCSAfooterlogo.gif hdf2.jpg New image files to make the documents more self-contained (i.e., to prevent loading images from NCSA and HDF home servers). index.html Redesigned to isolate links external to the installation in a single location. Intro to HDF5 ============= H5.intro.html Fixed banner linking Intro to other docs. Set all URLs to be relative within the distribution; nothing points back to the HDF server. Updates to "Limits of the Current Release" and "Changes in the Current Release." HDF5 User's Guide ================= Changed several User Guide section titles such that all sections that are primarily about a particular interface are now titled in the format "The xxxxx Interface (H5x)". H5.user.html Commented out links to developer docs since they are marked in MANIFEST as not being for distribution in the release. Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. Datatypes.html Removed the sentence "I'm deferring definition until later since they're probably not as important as the other data types." from Section 3.3, "Properties of Date and Time Atomic Types." Added info regarding 'char' versus 'string' datatypes. Added as Section 3.7, "Character and String Datatype Issues." References.html Commented out substantial material (at end of document) from References planning document that is not appropriate for the User Guide but that is worth keeping around. Groups.html Final edits from elimination of "current working group." HDF5 Reference Manual ===================== Removed "Draft" from the <title>__</title> lines. RM_H5Front.html Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. RM_H5F.html RM_H5P.html Add file mounting information.

<font size=-1>
<i>In general, each FORTRAN90 subroutine performs exactly the same task
as the corresponding C function. The links below go to the C function
descriptions, which serve as general descriptions for both. A button,
under <strong>Non-C API(s)</strong> at the end of the C function description,
opens an external browser window displaying the FORTRAN90-specific
information. You will probably want to adjust the size and location of
this external window so that both browser windows are visible and to
facilitate moving easily between them.</i>

<p>
The Error interface provides error handling in the form of a stack.
The <code>FUNC_ENTER()</code> macro clears the error stack whenever
an interface function is entered.
When an error is detected, an entry is pushed onto the stack.
As the functions unwind, additional entries are pushed onto the stack.
The API function will return some indication that an error occurred and
the application can print the error stack.
<p>
Certain API functions in the H5E package, such as <code>H5Eprint</code>,
do not clear the error stack. Otherwise, any function which
does not have an underscore immediately after the package name
will clear the error stack. For instance, <code>H5Fopen</code>
clears the error stack while <code>H5F_open</code> does not.
<p>
An error stack has a fixed maximum size.
If this size is exceeded then the stack will be truncated and only the
inner-most functions will have entries on the stack.
This is expected to be a rare condition.
<p>
Each thread has its own error stack, but since
multi-threading has not been added to the library yet, this
package maintains a single error stack. The error stack is
statically allocated to reduce the complexity of handling
errors within the H5E package.

<dt><strong>Signature:</strong>
<dd><em>herr_t</em> <code>H5Eset_auto</code>(<em>H5E_auto_t</em> <code>func</code>,
<em>void *</em><code>client_data</code>
)
<dt><strong>Purpose:</strong>
<dd>Turns automatic error printing on or off.
<dt><strong>Description:</strong>
<dd><code>H5Eset_auto</code> turns on or off automatic printing of
errors. When turned on (non-null <code>func</code> pointer),
any API function which returns an error indication will
first call <code>func</code>, passing it <code>client_data</code>
as an argument.
<p>
When the library is first initialized the auto printing function
is set to <code>H5Eprint</code> (cast appropriately) and
<code>client_data</code> is the standard error stream pointer,
<code>stderr</code>.
<p>
Automatic stack traversal is always in the
<code>H5E_WALK_DOWNWARD</code> direction.
<dt><strong>Parameters:</strong>
<dl>
<dt><em>H5E_auto_t</em> <code>func</code>
<dd>IN: Function to be called upon an error condition.

<dt><strong>Purpose:</strong>
<dd>Walks the error stack for the current thread, calling a specified
function.
<dt><strong>Description:</strong>
<dd><code>H5Ewalk</code> walks the error stack for the current thread
and calls the specified function for each error along the way.
<p>
<code>direction</code> determines whether the stack is walked
from the inside out or the outside in.
A value of <code>H5E_WALK_UPWARD</code> means begin with the
most specific error and end at the API;
a value of <code>H5E_WALK_DOWNWARD</code> means to start at the
API and end at the inner-most function where the error was first
detected.
<p>
<code>func</code> will be called for each error in the error stack.
Its arguments will include an index number (beginning at zero
regardless of stack traversal direction), an error stack entry,
and the <code>client_data</code> pointer passed to
<code>H5E_print</code>.
The <code>H5E_walk_t</code> prototype is as follows:
<dir>
<p>
<code>typedef</code> <em>herr_t</em> <code>(*H5E_walk_t)(</code><em>int</em> <code>n,</code>
<em>H5E_error_t *</em><code>err_desc,</code>
<em>void *</em><code>client_data)</code>
<p>
where the parameters have the following meanings:
<dl>
<dt><em>int</em> <code>n</code>
<dd>Indexed position of the error in the stack.
<dt><em>H5E_error_t *</em><code>err_desc</code>
<dd>Pointer to a data structure describing the error.
<em>(This structure is currently described only in the
source code file </em><code>hdf5/src/H5Epublic.h</code><em>.
That file also contains the definitive list of major
and minor error codes. That information will
eventually be presented as an appendix to this
<cite>Reference Manual</cite>.)</em>
<dt><em>void *</em><code>client_data</code>
<dd>Pointer to client data in the format expected by
the user-defined function.
</dl>
</dir>
<p>
<code>H5Ewalk</code> can fail if there are problems initializing
the library.
<dt><strong>Parameters:</strong>
<dl>
<dt><em>H5E_direction_t</em> <code>direction</code>
<dd>IN: Direction in which the error stack is to be walked.
<dt><em>H5E_walk_t</em> <code>func</code>

<dt><strong>Purpose:</strong>
<dd>Default error stack traversal callback function
that prints error messages to the specified output stream.
<dt><strong>Description:</strong>
<dd><code>H5Ewalk_cb</code> is a default error stack traversal callback
function that prints error messages to the specified output stream.
It is not meant to be called directly but rather as an
argument to the <code>H5Ewalk</code> function.
This function is called also by <code>H5Eprint</code>.
Application writers are encouraged to use this function as a
model for their own error stack walking functions.
<p>
<code>n</code> is a counter for how many times this function
has been called for this particular traversal of the stack.
It always begins at zero for the first error on the stack
(either the top or bottom error, or even both, depending on
the traversal direction and the size of the stack).
<p>
<code>err_desc</code> is an error description. It contains all the
information about a particular error.
<p>
<code>client_data</code> is the same pointer that was passed as the
<code>client_data</code> argument of <code>H5Ewalk</code>.
It is expected to be a file pointer (or stderr if NULL).

[svn-r985] Checking in changes from "HDF5 Release 1.0" CVS branch that have not yet been checked into "HDF5 Development" branch. General ======= Various "copy edit" types of repairs. Revisions to document cross-linking. Added structural links tying all docs together (banners at top and bottom of documents, similar to Reference Manual banners of the Beta release). Set background color to white in all documents. NCSAfooterlogo.gif hdf2.jpg New image files to make the documents more self-contained (i.e., to prevent loading images from NCSA and HDF home servers). index.html Redesigned to isolate links external to the installation in a single location. Intro to HDF5 ============= H5.intro.html Fixed banner linking Intro to other docs. Set all URLs to be relative within the distribution; nothing points back to the HDF server. Updates to "Limits of the Current Release" and "Changes in the Current Release." HDF5 User's Guide ================= Changed several User Guide section titles such that all sections that are primarily about a particular interface are now titled in the format "The xxxxx Interface (H5x)". H5.user.html Commented out links to developer docs since they are marked in MANIFEST as not being for distribution in the release. Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. Datatypes.html Removed the sentence "I'm deferring definition until later since they're probably not as important as the other data types." from Section 3.3, "Properties of Date and Time Atomic Types." Added info regarding 'char' versus 'string' datatypes. Added as Section 3.7, "Character and String Datatype Issues." References.html Commented out substantial material (at end of document) from References planning document that is not appropriate for the User Guide but that is worth keeping around. Groups.html Final edits from elimination of "current working group." HDF5 Reference Manual ===================== Removed "Draft" from the <title>__</title> lines. RM_H5Front.html Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. RM_H5F.html RM_H5P.html Add file mounting information.
