Description:
H5F_ACC_CREAT was included in the C++ API while the C library doesn't
allow it yet. Possibly, in the future, but not now. In addition, the
two flags H5F_ACC_RDONLY and H5F_ACC_RDWR were missing from the
documentation, causing confusion that appending is not supported.
Solution:
- Removed H5F_ACC_CREAT from the function until the C library support it
- Added H5F_ACC_RDONLY and H5F_ACC_RDWR to the comments to update the
documentation
Platforms tested:
Linux/ppc64 (ostrich)
Linux/32 2.6 (jam)
SunOS 5.11 (emu)
Description:
+ The C++ test failed with the new PGI compilers versions 12.4 and 12.5
+ An exception thrown by an internal function, which was called by
a constructor, was not propagating to the test program during the stack
unwinding, so it couldn't be caught by the test and the program terminated.
+ Various trials and errors indicated that the problem is where an STD string
converted to a char* being passed to the internal function, but confirmation
has not been found yet. It could be a compiler bug.
Solution:
+ Added a try/catch in the constructor around the internal function and
re-throw the exception when it is caught. This is a workaround.
+ Unrelated minor fixes: removed unused variables and MESSAGE's; commented
out tvlstr.cpp/test_read_vl_string_attribute because it may be redundant,
and commented out H5Tpkg.h inclusion because TEST_ALIGNMENT is not added
yet and probably not necessary in the C++ API.
Platforms tested:
Linux/32 2.6 (jam) with PGI compilers
Linux/32 2.6 (jam) with GNU compilers
Linux/64 2.6 (koala)
Clean up Coverity warnings, and fix some style issues:
r19735:
Fix for memory leak in test/mf found by valgrind.
r19736:
Fix memory leak in h5repack. The buffer in copy_objects, when copying the
entire dataset at once, was not checked for the presence of a vlen, and vlen
storage was never reclaimed. Added check and call to H5D_vlen_reclaim().
r19772:
Change H5assert() to
if (H5T_VLEN != src->shared->type || H5T_VLEN != dst->shared->type)
HGOTO_ERROR(H5E_ARGS, H5E_BADTYPE, FAIL, "not a H5T_VLEN datatype")
r19774:
removed unused priv.
r19775:
removed unused variables
r19778:
Fix memory leak comparing for variable length data types.
r19834:
Fixed memory leaks found by valgrind. Memory errors remain for another day.
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.6.6 (amazon) w/debug & production
(h5committested on branch)
Removed header file testhdf5.h from C++ tests to eliminate a non-standard
problem on OpenVMS. It wasn't essential.
Platforms tested:
Linux/32 2.6 (jam)
FreeBSD/64 6.3 (liberty)
Ray agreed to test on OpenVMS.
Description:
Fixed CommonFG::getComment and CommonFG::getLinkval to provide
default values for buffer size to improve usability.
Added test file tlinks.cpp, which only contains test for getLinkval
and will expand when C++ wrappers for H5L functions are implemented.
Platforms tested:
Linux/32 2.6 (jam)
FreeBSD/64 6.3 (liberty)
SunOS 5.10 (linew)
