Fixed Bug 2184 - GMQS: h5diff - incorrect calculation code for
--use-system-epsilon option
Description:
Merged from HDF5 1.8 branch r20369.
Fixed h5diff for --use-system-epsilon option: the calculation changed
from ( |a - b| / b ) to ( |a - b| ). This was decided for better
performance and was corrected only in HDF5 trunk, so 1.8 got updated.
Also comments for equal_XXX() function were updated correctly.
Also help page and RM got updated correctly.
Also add test cases for testing the differences w/wo the option.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE)
Bug 2182 - h5ls and h5dump: update to use --enable-error-stack among tools, also update related descriptions
Description:
Decided to use --enable-error-stack long option name only to
display error stack messages from HDF5 lib among tools.
Updated to unify option name to '--enable-error-stack' for printing
HDF5 error stack messages for HDF5 tools. h5ls and h5dump for now.
For h5ls, this replaces "-e/--errors" option, which is deprecated.
For h5dump, remove -E from help page and RM , which was added by mistake
before release1.8.7.
Help page and RM got updated.
Updated test case.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE)
Fixed CHICAGO: Bug 2121 - h5diff - incorrect and lack of output for the
different set of attributes (different number and names)
Description:
This is related to previous checkin r20294.
Add help page update for verbose option level feature, which displays
useful information about attribute difference with -v1, --verbose=1 -v2
or --verbose=2 option.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Fixed CHICAGO: Bug 2121 - h5diff - incorrect and lack of output for the
different set of attributes (different number and names)
Description:
Previously h5diff compared attributes correctly only when two objects have
the same number of attributes and attribute names are identical.
This fix covers all other cases.
Also didn't display useful information about attribute difference.
This fixes both issues.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Improve the previous fix for Bug 2216 - GMQS: h5diff - memory leak when
compares vlen string in dataset or attributes
Description:
Improve the fix along with the previous checkin r20266.
Add a new function to tool lib, h5tools_detect_vlen_data() which return
TRUE if include any kind of vlen data all at once, either VLEN-data or
VLEN-string and so on.
Also updated h5ls and h5dump code accordingly.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Cmake - jam
Fixed Bug 1904 - h5ls : usage of '-a' option is not clear to display expected output
Description:
Fixed incorrect content and improved help page for -a option of h5ls.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), Cmake (jam)
Fix Bug 2120 - h5copy: improve to copy an object into same HDF file
Description:
Before the fix users can't copy an object (dataset or group) with
different name if input file (-i) and output file (-o) is same.
This feature would be useful to clone any object with different name and
reuse contents.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Cmake (jam)
Fixing Bug 2161 - GMQS: h5dump - only on Windows, skip displaying a data value every a certain lines in array type dataset
Description:
Fixed h5dump for skipping some values for long array type dataset on
Windows. This issue only occurred on Windows due to the different
return behavior from _vsnprintf() funtion.
Tested:
Windows, jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Fixing Bug 2092 - h5dump does not display index for a dataset
Description:
h5dump skip displaying array indices every certain number when the
array type dataset is relatively big. The certain number varies
according to the size of each array.
This checkin fix the skipping array indices problem. This fix also
correct indentation of the dataset data output.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Description:
When using the scale-offset filter with floating point data or fill values, big
endian machines would save some metadata in the wrong byte order. This caused
such datasets to yield incorrect data when read on little endian machines.
Fixed the scale-offset filter to always save this metadata in the right byte order (i.e. little endian).
Tested: jam, amani, heiwa (h5committedt); fedora, linew
Bug 2089 - GMQS: h5diff segfault on a compound dataset with fixed length +
vlen string type order
Description:
This is fix for the segfault when h5diff compares a compound dataset with
combination of fixed length string types and vlen string types in certain
orders. Optimized vlariable length string handling codes. The fix is
referred from h5dump handling vlen strings.
For testing, several compound datasets were added with various combinations.
Previous failed cases:
- Vlen string, Fixed length string, Vlen string, Fixed length string
- Fixed length string, Fixed length string, Vlen string, Vlen string
- Fixed length string, Vlen string, Fixed length string, Vlen string
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Add "--enable-unsupported" configure flag.
Description
The "--enable-unsupported" configure flag allows a user to
prevent configure from failing due to the use of incompatible
options, such as c++ with parallel.
Specifying --enable-unsupported will bypass all of configure's
checks for incompatible and unsupported combinations of flags.
There are no guarantees that the library will be configured
in any sort of working condition, but that's the risk of
using the --enable-unsupported flag.
I've changed all default error messages related to unsupported
option combinations to indicate that using --enable-unsupported
will allow configure to complete without error.
Tested:
by hand on jam, tested all unsupported configure option
combinations with and without the new flag, making sure
the flag allows configure to finish without error.
(h5committest wouldn't do any good here; it won't test
the new option, and since we're enabling unsupported
combinations, failures are likely to occur in build or
tests with --enable-unsupported turned on anyways.
That's why they're unsupported!)
Add additional error checking to catch erroneous user input.
Description:
Attempting to retrieve a links's name by index in the case
where the link is external and the file that the object is
located in doesn't exist was causing a segmentation fault
(in production) and an assertion failure (in debug).
The segfault wasn't occuring until the metadata accumulator
attempted a write, so I've added error checking higher in
the pipeline in H5O_protect (where there was previously just
an assert) to catch this. I've also added additional asserts
in the H5F layer where there were none.
Additionally, I added another case to the links.c test to
test that this fails gracefully instead of segfaulting or
asserting out.
Tested:
h5committest and gandalf (mac os x)
Improve h5diff performance.
Description:
The following changes for improving h5diff performance:
1) use HDmemcmp() before comparing each elements
(memcmp() is very fast at both linew and jam)
2) replace the expensive H5Tequals() calls
3) retrieve datatype information at dataset level not each element level
for compound datasets
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Fixed Bug# 1979 Output from h5ls -rdlS on nested compound datatypes is
difficult to parse.
Description:
Update to add curly brackets for the nested compound members, when
S (--simple) option is used with -l (--label), so user can tell
which members blong to which compound type.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32)
Fixed h5diff to handle variable-length strings in a compound dataset
correctly. Also variable-length string array in a compound dataset.
Bug #1989.
Description:
Garbage values were displayed when h5diff compared variable-length
strings (or string array) in a compound type dataset.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (Mac32)

unknown versions of the C Intel compilers.
Modified apple config file to display Intel compiler information.
Updated RELEASE.txt notes accordingly.
Platfroms tested: jam, amani and dubna (Mac 64-bit) with Intel C, Fortran and C++ compilers.
Bug 1707 is that H5Eset_auto causes a seg fault when an application uses -DH5_USE_16_API with
the 1.8 library to compile.
I created a branch off the trunk called set_auto to continue working on the problem.
Tested on jam - backing out, simple.
Description:
Library versions 1.6.3 and earlier contain a bug which causes them to be unable
to perform certain operations on a group if that group's symbol table
information is not cached in the parent group's symbol table. Versions 1.8.0
to 1.8.5 did not cache this information. Modified library to cache this
information.
Tested: jam, amani, heiwa (h5committest)
through H5Eset_auto. I changed the union in the structure H5E_auto_t. Another change is to
make H5Eget_auto fail if H5Eset_auto is called to set the printing function. I'll write a
document for it.
Tested on heiwa, jam, and amani.
The property change in configure.in, config, and Makefile.am came from the merge of the 1.8
library change.
Add --exclude-path option
Description:
Specified path to an object will be excluded from comparing the two files or two groups. If group is specified all the member objects will be excluded.
Related to "1890: h5diff excluding object for file comparison via command line"
Tested:
jam, amani and heiwa
Fix for Bug1975 h5diff - support recursive comparison on group when specified as an object
Description:
Compare member objects and groups recursively when two files or groups are specified to be compared. Support parallel diff and handling symbolic links accordingly.
Tested:
jam, amani, heiwa
Fix for Bug1896 h5repack - changing layout to COMPACT does not work
Description:
Make h5repack be able to convert a layout to COMPACT for small size dataset as default. Also add verifying layout changes in our test script.
Tested:
jam, amani, heiwa
Description:
The fractal heap header structure keeps a pointer to the file associated with
it. However, it is possible for that file pointer to be closed while the
header is still in cache (through the shared file pointer). Previously, the
header's file pointer was not updated and subsequently pointed to an invalid
file structure. Modified fractal heap code to update the file pointer every
time the header is accessed.
Tested: jam, linew, amani (h5committest)
Add windows threads support to HDF5.
Description:
Added calls to the windows threads library to the H5TS layer, and wrapped
most calls to either pthreads or windows threads library with portable
H5TS-style defines. Modified tests to use portable function definitions
as well.
This can be configured via CMake with the HDF5_ENABLE_THREADSAFE
option, and should work on windows vista and later operating systems.
Tested:
h5committest, plus threadsafe with pthreads on jam and amani,
and tested on a Windows Vista VM with threadsafe using windows threads.
