[svn-r3327]
Purpose:
Updating HISTORY to include Release 1.2.2.
Solution:
Added R1.2.2 to HISTORY file (missed in transition to R1.4).
Section headers -- made sure each section mentioned the release
for which the section was prepared.
Added searchable tag ('%%%%') for each section to aid navigation.
Platforms tested:
Read the file in vi on baldric.
Printed text file to paper with enscript.

INTRODUCTION
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This document describes the differences between HDF5-1.2.1 and
|
||||||
|
HDF5-1.2.2, and contains information on the platforms where HDF5-1.2.2
|
||||||
|
was tested and known problems in HDF5-1.2.2.

Features Added since HDF5-1.2.1
|
||||||
|
===============================
|
||||||
|
* Added internal free-lists to reduce memory required by the library and
|
||||||
|
H5garbage_collect API function.
|
||||||
|
* h5dump displays opaque and bitfield types.
|
||||||
|
* New features added to snapshots. Use 'snapshot help' to see a
|
||||||
|
complete list of features.
|
||||||
|
* Improved configure to detect if MPIO routines are available when
|
||||||
|
parallel mode is requested.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.2.1
|
||||||
|
==========================
|
||||||
|
* h5dump correctly displays compound datatypes, including simple and
|
||||||
|
nested compound types.
|
||||||
|
* h5dump correctly displays the committed copy of predefined types.
|
||||||
|
* Corrected an error in h5toh4 which did not convert the 32-bit
|
||||||
|
int from HDF5 to HDF4 correctly for the T3E platform.
|
||||||
|
* Corrected a floating point number conversion error for the
|
||||||
|
Cray J90 platform. The error did not convert the value 0.0
|
||||||
|
correctly.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed error in H5Giterate which was not updating the "index" parameter
|
||||||
|
correctly.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed error in hyperslab iteration which was not walking through the
|
||||||
|
correct sequence of array elements if hyperslabs were staggered in a
|
||||||
|
certain pattern.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed several other problems in hyperslab iteration code.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed another H5Giterate bug which caused groups with large numbers
|
||||||
|
of objects in them to misbehave when the callback function returned
|
||||||
|
non-zero values.
|
||||||
|
* Changed return type of H5Aiterate and H5A_operator_t typedef to be
|
||||||
|
herr_t, to align them with the dataset and group iterator functions.
|
||||||
|
* Changed H5Screate_simple and H5Sset_extent_simple to not allow dimensions
|
||||||
|
of size 0 without the same dimension being unlimited.
|
||||||
|
* Improved metadata hashing & caching algorithms to avoid
|
||||||
|
many hash flushes and also removed some redundant I/O when moving metadata
|
||||||
|
blocks in the file.
|
||||||
|
* The libhdf5.settings file shows the correct machine byte-sex.
|
||||||
|
* The "struct(opt)" type conversion function which gets invoked for
|
||||||
|
certain compound datatype conversions was fixed for nested compound
|
||||||
|
types. This required a small change in the datatype conversion
|
||||||
|
function API.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Known Problems
|
||||||
|
==============
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
o SunOS 5.6 with C WorkShop Compilers 4.2: hyperslab selections will
|
||||||
|
fail if library is compiled using optimization of any level.
|
||||||
|
o TFLOPS: dsets test fails if compiled with optimization turned on.
|
||||||
|
o J90: tools fail to dispay data for the datasets with a compound datatype.

||||||
