Feature Update
Description:
Modified the AC_OUTPUT macro to coincide with the now-standard way of
doing things. I.e., you put all of the files you want to generate
into the AC_CONFIG_FILES macro and invode AC_OUTPUT with no
parameters.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Autotools Update
Description:
I've updated autoconf, automake, and libtool to the latest/greatest
versions; 2.53, 1.6, and 1.4.2 resp.
Many changes come with the new versions:
- ltconfig is no longer used
- acconfig.h is no longer used (#define values are declared with
the macro)
- regeneration of all of the aclocal.m4, configure, and
H5config.h.in files.
- new config.{guess,sub} files
- new ltmain.sh file
Platforms tested:
AIX (blue), and Linux
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
Parallel Fortran wasn't working on Modi4. The tests for parallel
MPI Fortran were failing to find MPI files.
Solution:
Changed the AC_TRY_FLINK() macro so that libraries are included
at the end of the link line so that unresolved symbols can be
found...
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
Hrm...When I was restoring the LDFLAGS variable after a failure, I
fergot to put a $ on the saved_LDFLAGS variable during the
assignment.
DOH!
Solution:
Added the $.
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Bug Fix
Description:
I wasn't testing if the Fortran compiler could actually do the MPI
compilation tests.
Solution:
Changed the configure script so that it uses Fortran 90 to test the
MPI compilation stuff instead of the MPI C compiler...
Platforms tested:
AIX and Linux
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
*sigh* The change I made yesterday didn't work correctly. The shell
command interpretted the line as if it were command flags.
Solution:
Removed the "()"s from around the macro name so that they can be
expanded correctly.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Fix
Description:
Porting fixes from the 1.4 branch to the 1.5 branch. This fixes the
dependency problem in the testpar/ directory and also the problem
with module includes on the command line.
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
Changed the order of the flags checking for modules from -M -I to -I
-M. Elena already fixed it in the configure ifle. This puts it in the
acsite.m4 file so that it will be propagated to future configure
builds.
Bug Fix
Description:
Small bug fix to the acsite.m4 stuff. We should check if the Fortran
9X compiler was found instead of the CC compiler.
Solution:
Changed CC to F9X macro.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Install Fix
Description:
Fortran modules need to be installed.
Solution:
I check for the extension modules are created with and use that
during the install...
Platforms tested:
Linux
Attempted Bug Fix
Description:
Some machines (Cray T3E, need you ask?) use the ``-p'' flag for
enabling double precision. This breaks our Fortran interface.
Solution:
Put this test last. However, the T3E apparently doesn't need
modules, so we may have to resort to a better "fix" than this
in the future.
Platforms tested:
T3E
Adding the Fortran interface to the HDF5 library
Description:
Fortran is now a subdirectory of the HDF5 library tree.
Platforms tested:
Solaris and IRIX (O2K)
