Added a relative error formula to deal with floating point uncertainty
in the comparison of floats and double types.
Added new tests for this feature to the file generator program and to
the shell script
1) added a new parameter to the h5diff function diff_array that contains
the beginning position of the hyperslab, so that the total position in
the array is printed correctly when reading by hyperslabs.
2) added a new test to h5diff that reads and diffs by hyperslabs. The
test reads a 1GB dataset, from which a 1KB hyperslab was written with
differences .
3) added the generation of 2 files to the generator program to test the
h5diff hyperslab read.
4) changed the h5diff binary pre-generated file names to be more
descriptive (e.g, instead of file1.h5, made it h5diff_basic1.h5)
5) changed the name of the h5repack options text file to info.h5repack
bug fix
Description:
1) the compare flag test was not being put in a correct place, making comparisons attempts that were not supposed to be done
2) some duplicate warnings were being made
Solution:
eliminate the duplicate warnings, put the if compare flag on the correct place
Platforms tested:
linux 32, 64
solaris
Misc. update:
bug fix, new features
Description:
when comparing links , the output for the number of differences found was not being done
Solution:
print it
add 3 more tests that test the output of differences for 1) groups 2) datatypes 3) links
Platforms tested:
linux
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
when 2 objects were not comparable, the final print information for the non verbose mode printed "0 differences found"
Solution:
replaced instead with a Summary message that says
"Some objects were not comparable"
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
Misc. update:
h5diff and h5repack changes
Description:
h5diff
introduced the following four modes of output:
Normal mode: print the number of differences found and where they occured
Report mode: print the above plus the differences
Verbose mode: print the above plus a list of objects and warnings
Quiet mode: do not print output (h5diff always returns an exit code of 1 when differences are found)
h5repack
added an extra parameter for SZIP filter (coding method)
the new syntax is
-f SZIP=<pixels per block,coding>
(pixels per block is a even number in 2-32 and coding method is 'EC' or 'NN')
Example of use:
./h5repack -i file1 -o file2 -f SZIP=8,NN -v
updated usage messages, test scripts and files accordingly
