Bug fix/code cleanup
Description:
Add tests to determine that very long (64K+) object names are working.
Fixed a couple of bugs in h5dump where they weren't...
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)
Code cleanup
Description:
Clean up various warnings reported by the Windows team.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Description: Removed support for SRB driver
Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure
to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files.
Platforms tested: heping and shanti
Misc. update: ran bin/chkmanifest on heping
Configuration feature
Description:
Different Fortran compilers mangle function names in different ways
(upper case, lower case, adding underscores). To link between
Fortran and C functions, we need to know what a given function's
name is under a given compiler.
Solution:
Use autoconf's FC_WRAPPERS check to determine the Fortran
naming scheme and define the FC_FUNC_ macro to name our
functions (in H5f90proto.h). Removed references to
our old FNAME macro, as well as flags that indicated whether
function names were upper or lower case.
Platforms tested:

Bug fix
Description:
On some machines, $RUNSERIAL variable needs to be used to run
tests. Set $RUNTESTS (which is used for non-parallel tests) to
be $RUNSERIAL in configure.am.
Also, since I was updating all Makefiles.in anyway, I updated
commence.am to point to autotools installs in AFS instead of
those on heping.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4, copper
Purpose:
"Bug fix"
Description:
Hardcoded Makefiles to use /bin/sh instead of letting configure
detect shell automatically. This is what v1.6 does, and avoids
problems on janus.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, mir
Feature - conditional compilation
Description:
SRB file driver and tests are now compiled only when SRB is enabled
(using --with-srb during configure).
Solution:
Added an automake conditional in configure.in, altered Makefiles.am in
src and test directories to depend on that conditional.
This should make a nice example for posterity to add conditionally
compiled sources.
Platforms tested:
heping (only configure change)
Purpose:
Added C++ wrapper for Packet Table API.
Description:
Added macro for high-level C++ library (LIBH5CPP_HL), which changes every
Makefile.in.
Added directories for high-level C++ library (though currently only Packet
Table API is supported).
Added both C++ source and tests.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, mir, modi4
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Typo in #ifdef to check for snprintf functionality.
Solution:
That should have been H5_VSNPRINTF_WORKS.
Platforms tested:
heping, modi4
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Bug fix.
Description:
ph5diff fails on modi4 due to the way snprintf works on IRIX.
Solution:
The C99 standard says that, if there isn't enough room in the string,
snprintf should return the number of characters that
would have been written to the output string if there were enough room.
The snprintf on modi4 would return the number of characters that is was able to write
succesfully to the string if space ran out. The ph5diff logic that checks if
the output buffer was full did not handle this sort of return value correctly.
Used VSNPRINTF_WORKS from configure test to check how snprintf works and do
the logic accordingly.
Platforms tested:
modi4
Misc. update:
Bug Fixes
Description:
Fixes for several bugs, including dumping of excess output to a temporary file, fix for printing
hsize_t datatype, and the long awaited fix for intermixed output.
Solution:
Fix 1: Overflow file
Previously, any output that a worker task made was buffered locally in memory, up to a point. Any
output beyond the size of the buffer (used to be 10k) was discarded. Now, the memory buffer size has been
changed to 1k and any output beyond this amount is sent a temporary file. This way, no output is lost
and memory usage is kept under control. The temporary file is deleted as soon as a worker task finishes
sending its contents to the manager.
Fix 2: hsize_t printing
Printing of the hsize_t datatype used to be handled by %Hu passed to HDfprintf. However, there is no corresponding HDvsnprintf that
is able to print hsize_t types. These are now printed with the aid of H5_PRINTF_LL_WIDTH.
Fix 3: Intermixed output fix
Intermixed output would occur on some machines (although I haven't seen it happen for a while) due to the unpredictability of the underlying network
and the speed at which various message would travel. This has been fixed by having all output send to the manager
for printing. The worker tasks no longer print the output themselves upon receipt of a token, but instead
send that data to the manager.
Platforms tested:
heping, eirene, tg-login (the only place that seems to still experience intermixed output every now and then)
Misc. update:
Automake version upgrade
Description:
Upgraded automake version from 1.6.2 to 1.9.5.
Changed bin/reconfigure script to use automake 1.9.5.
Changed configure.in and Makefiles to use new FCFLAGS and FC variables
instead of FFLAGS and F9X.
Automake and configure should now do the lion's share of the work
supporting Fortran 9X; macros in acsite.m4 are now mostly unused (will
be cleaned later).
Altered how configure handles pmake; now root-level Makefile.in is
processed by bin/reconfigure to have a .MAKEFLAGS target, since
automake no longer allows us to define unused variables.
Configure now always checks for C++ compiler even if it is not
used, since automake thinks this is the Right Thing To Do and
will break otherwise.
Platforms tested:
Sol, copper, heping, mir, sleipnir, eirene, pommier, kelgia, modi4.
Bug fix.
Description:
MPI_LONG_LONG, which is not standard yet, was used to pass the
nubmer of differences found. This was needed because number of
differences is defined as type hsize_t which can be arbitary large
such that there is no MPI type that matches it. The value is passed
between processes as an array of bytes in order to be portable. But this
may not work in non-homogeneous MPI environments.
This fix was actually Leon's idea.
Platforms tested:
Tested in QSC in which this failed.
Removed GASS configuration and software packages associated with
it. The following software are no longer configurable.
checking for main in -lcrypto... yes
checking for SSL_get_version in -lssl... yes
checking globus_common.h usability... yes
checking globus_common.h presence... yes

Platforms tested:
h5committested (but copper was down.) tested in modi4 too.
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
modi4 dies during build with strange errors.
The root cause of these is a two-year-old hack in HDF5's libtool
script that only takes effect on IRIX.
Solution:
Edited the libtool hack (by editing ltmain.sh) to correct a bug in
the hack.
Also made sure that compiler-specific DEFAULT_LIBS are used
when linking.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, sol
Bug fix
Description:
Arabica exhibited strange errors when linker found wrong versions of
header files. This happened because include directories were
given to linker in the wrong order.
Solution:
Move include directories from AM_CFLAGS variable to INCLUDES
variable to put them before CPPFLAGS variable. Trust me, it works.
This bug may also have contributed to strange errors on other platforms
(kelgia?).
Platforms tested:
copper, sleipnir, arabica.
(h5dump broke while building on arabica, but this happened in
a clean checkout, too).
Bug fix
Description:
pmake (on modi4, for instance) complains about undefined variables
if it is run without the -V flag, which turns those errors to warnings.
Solution:
Added test to configure.in to see if $MAKE will allow Makefiles
with undefined variables. If not, sets -V flag in AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Ensured that all custom make targets use AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Also defined all variables that caused errors in top-level Makefile.am.
This means that pmake can be used to build hdf5 *from the top level
only*. To run make from a subdirectory, still need to use -V flag
(or use make or gmake).
Platforms tested:
modi4, heping, copper, sleipnir
Correction to previous print_manager_output bugfix
Description:
Although the previous bugfix did fix all the errors, it was not the correct way
to fix the problem. Since the manager will only buffer output when run in
parallel mode, in serial mode this function should not even be called.
Solution:
Wrapped print_manager_output in #define's to prevent it from being included in
serial builds.
Platforms tested:
heping (serial + parallel)
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
g++ was not happy with missing protocols of external functions.
Added print_manager_output(void) and phdiff_dismiss_workers(void)
to the public declarations.
Platforms tested:
Tested in sleipnir (g++) and heping (serial, pp)
Misc. update:
Purpose:
bug fix, new test file
Description:
h5dump was not properly displaying array indices > 3D
Solution:
added the same algorythm and data structure that h5diff uses to calculate the array index
from a element number position
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
print_manager_output was missing because it was compiled in
only parallel mode.
Solution:
Made it available all the times.
Platforms tested:
h5committested. (testph5diff.sh failed in copper but that
is a different error.)
Also tested in heping, serial and pp.
Misc. update:
Fixed numerous ph5diff bugs.
Description:
Fixed manager output printing
Fixed out of order output printing
Fixed test script execution problem
Temporary fix for large amounts of output overflowing buffer.
Solution:
The manager task buffers its output. However, since the manager task
never gets a print token, this output was lost. Solution: new function called
print_manager_output that prints buffered output is called in places where the
manager buffers its output.
printf was apparently buffering output. This means that a task would sometimes
print even after it had given up its print token. Added fflush() call after
printf() calls, which seems to have fixed the problem.
calling rsh multiple times in succession seems to overwhelm something in Linux,
as it begins to refuse new connections until the old ones reset. Since each
call to mpirun in the test script starts up 4 rsh sessions, the test script
eventually is unable to run any further tests. Solution: Added a short delay in the
testscript between successive calls to mpirun to allow old connections to reset.
The 10k output buffer was of insufficient size to hold the large amounts of
output generated by some of the tests. Since code to buffer to a file has not
been implemented yet, a temporary fix was to increase the size of the output
buffer to 50k.
Platforms tested:
heping
Misc. update:
Feature
Description:
Added a new function, phdiff_dismiss_workers, which tells the phdiff
worker processes to end.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping, serial and parallel.
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Parallel builds were breaking in tools/lib
Solution:
talign didn't realize it depended on libh5tools.la because its
dependencies listed the full path (../../tools/lib/libh5tools.la).
Changed this, and made similar changes in a couple of other
directories.
This checkin should also add the --foreign flag to every Makefile.in
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (minor change)
New feature
Description:
Add basic code for new B-tree implementation. They don't do much yet,
aren't hooked up to anything yet and the format may change, but I'd like to
start getting them into the daily tests.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug Fix
Description:
Permanent fix for the incompatibilities between h5diff and h5repack.
Solution:
h5diff now contains the code to run both parallel and serial diffs.
Depending on how the binary is called, it will run either the serial or
the parallel versions respectively.
Platforms tested:
heping(serial + parallel), copper.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Found the permanant fix to automake/CVS dependency problem
Solution:
Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE macro to configure.in.
Now automake will never try to regenerate Makefiles, Makefiles.in,
configure, H5config.h, etc. when they are out of date, nor will it
print any warnings.
Developers should be very very careful to use reconfigure script,
and can add --enable-maintainer-mode flag to configure on heping
to regenerate these files correctly.
Platforms tested:
heping sleipnir copper
Bug fix
Description:
Configuration files' timestamps were incorrect.
Solution:
Update Makefiles.in. Also added correct paths to autotools on heping,
so heping build should be able to re-generate configuration files even
if they are still broken.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir
Bug fix
Description:
Dependencies between configure files (aclocal, configure.in, configure,
Makefiles.am and .in) are still causing Makefiles to try to run autotools
during build.
Solution:
Committed all Makefiles.in to update their timestamps.
As a temporary measure, forcibly prevented automake from running
autotools during build by redefining the variables it uses.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (No changes to Makefile content)
Bug fix
Description:
Different compilers use different flags to include Fortran module files
Solution:
Changed boilerplate to use configure variable rather than hardcoded -M flag.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, sol, copper
fix bugs.
Description:
The three variables, g_nTasks, outBuff, and outBuffOffset, were
declared in ph5diff.h. That means they are declared in various
*.c files that include it, thus having the appearance of multiple
defined. Most C compilers are forgiving of this error but
the g++ rejects this practice.
Solution:
Make it only an extern declaration in ph5diff.h but really
defined them in h5diff_util.c
Platforms tested:
sleipnir using g++ since this only failed in Daily test.
Also testes in heping, serial and parallel modes.
Configuration feature
Description:
HDF5 now uses automake to generate Makefiles
Solution:
Makefile.in files are now generated from Makefile.am files.
To reconfigure (after chaning a Makefile.am or configure.in):
/bin/sh bin/reconfigure.sh
Platforms tested:
Many
Temporary daily tests fix.
Description:
The newly added ph5diff is not quite compatible with the h5repack tool.
Disabled the ph5diff build (reverted back to building serial h5diff)
to allow daily tests to work while ph5diff is fixed.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping both serial and parallel modes.
Misc. update:
Description:
the print_paralell h5diff function had a call to vsnprintf.
this causes a linking error on Windows
Solution:
replaced with HDvsnprintf
Platforms tested:
windows (vs6)
linux
Misc. update:
Bug fix: Temporary fix for h5repack failures in all parallel builds.
Description:
The parallel additions to h5diff interfered with h5repack.
Solution:
Added a second set of "parallel" functions to h5diff.c. h5repack uses the serial versions, whereas h5diff will use the parallel versions.
Also, h5diff will now be smart about when to enter parallel mode. If is run with mpirun with more than 1 task, it will enter parallel mode. Otherwise, it will stay in serial mode as before.
Platforms tested:
heping (serial and parallel)
Misc. update:
New feature.
Description:
Added new tool ph5diff. (Code done by Leon Arber.)
Code is changed but test is not working yet. For now,
it skipped all tests.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping, serial and parallel modes.
Remove feature
Description:
Retire threaded, balanced binary tree code from HDF5 use. Requiescat in
pace...
Also, regenerate dependencies files.

Too minor to require full h5committesting (the code is already
disconnected from everything except its tests)
Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-)
Description:
Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections.
However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier
until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I
brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the
release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in
performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch,
but not the other.
I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label
"before_signed_unsigned_changes".
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel & fphdf5
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/backward compatibility

AIX 5.x (copper) w/parallel & FORTRAN
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/FORTRAN
Linux 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Misc. update:
enhanced performance for h5diff
Description:
the comparison cycle for the 2 buffers read from file was using a compare function
where the type must be checked for each datum (e.g due to recursive calls in compound types)
for atomic types this checking can be avoided
Solution:
introduced cycles for each one of the atomic integer and float class types
Platforms tested:

Misc. update:
Description: H5Pset_fapl_family sets family member size only for creating
new file. The file doesn't keep this size information. When the file is
re-opened, the size of first member file is used as the member size.
Solution: Assume user knows the original member size and sets it through
H5Pset_fapl_family. That will be the member size. User can pass in value 0
as member size if he doesn't know the original member size. Library will
choose the size of current first member size as the member file size.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss.
Fix SZIP filter to dynmically detect encoder.
Description:
Solution:
See:
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/RFC/SZIP/Szip_dynamic_12_Oct.pdf
Changes to h5repack tests, contingent on detecting SZIP encoder.
Note new program:
testh5repack_detect_szip
Checks fo rencoder, prints out "yes" or "no". Used by hrepack.sh
to detect encoder. Can also be used for windows tests. This is
only used as part of the tests.
Had to modify Makefile to build and clean this program.
Make talign work on windows.
Description:
msvc++ uses _unlink instead of unlink.
Solution:
