ISSUE : the tools use the following formula to read by hyperslabs: hyperslab_size[i] = MIN( dim_size[i], H5TOOLS_BUFSIZE / datum_size) where H5TOOLS_BUFSIZE is a constant defined of 1024K. This is OK as long as the datum_size does not exceed 1024K, otherwise we have a hyperslab size of 0 (since 1024K/(greater than 1024K) = 0). This affects h5dump. h5repack, h5diff
SOLUTION: add a check for a 0 size and define as 1 if so.
TEST FOR H5DUMP: Defined a case in the h5dump test generator program of such a type (an array type of doubles with a large array dimension, that was the case the user reported). Since the written file commited in svn would be around 1024K, opted for not writing the data (the part of the code where the hyperslab is defined is executed, since h5dump always reads the files). Defined a macro WRITE_ARRAY to enable such writing if needed. Added a run on the h5dump shell script. Added 2 new files to svn: tools/testfiles/tarray8.ddl, tools/testfiles/tarray8.h5. NOTE: while doing this I thought of adding this dataset case to an existing file, but that would add the large array output to those files (the ddls). The issue is that the file list is increasing.
TEST FOR H5DIFF: for h5diff the check for reading by hyperslabs is H5TOOLS_MALLOCSIZE (128 * H5TOOLS_BUFSIZE) or 128 Mb. This makes it not possible to add such a file to svn, so used the same method as h5dump (only write the dataset if WRITE_ARRAY is defined). As opposed to h5dump, the hyperslab code is NOT executed when the dataset is empty (dataset is not read). Added the new dataset to existing files and shell run (tools/h5diff/testfiles/h5diff_dset1.h5 and tools/h5diff/testfiles/h5diff_dset2.h5 and output in tools/h5diff/testfiles/h5diff_80.txt).
TEST FOR H5REPACK: similar issue as h5diff with the difference that the hyperslab code is run. Added a run to the shell script (with a filter, otherwise the code uses H5Ocopy).
tested: linux (h5commitest failed , apparently it did not detect the code changes in /tools/lib that fix the bug: the error in an assertion in the hyperslab of 0. I am sure that making h5ccomitest --distclean will detect the new code , but don't want to wait more 3 hours :-) )
Bug Fix
Description:
Fixing BZ #1381. The --includedir=DIR configure option, which is used
to specify the installation location of C header files, did not work
correctly as the path was hard-coded in config/commence.am. I'm presuming
this is because an older version of automake didn't know where to put
c header files. In any case, removing this line now defaults the includedir
to the same directory that it is currently hard-coded to, and also fixes
the configure flag to allow customization of this value.
Tested:
jam, liberty
Remove another call to H5E_clear_stack() from within the library.
Clean up lots of compiler warnings.
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.5.6 (amazon)
(followup on other platforms forthcoming)
the way h5ls prints types, it starts searching for NATIVE types first. One solution would be h5ls not to detect these native types, using for example the same print datatype function that h5dump does, that would make the output look the same on all platforms ("32-bit little-endian integer" would be printed instead). Drawback, this "native" information would not be available. Other solution is to have not one but 2 expected outputs and make the shell script detect the endianess and compare with one output or other
tested: h5committest
Solution: for compound types, recursively apply that check
Two new cases are added
1) the compound type has a different number of members. Message printed is
<obj1> has X members <obj2> has Y members
Where X and Y are the number of members of each compound type being compared
2) the compound type has not comparable types (for example a double and an int at the same index)
In this case the message
Comparison not possible: object1 is of class1 and object2 is of class2
Is replaced with
Comparison not possible: object1 has a class1 and object2 has a class2
Modified the test generator program to have these 2 cases
Added a shell run for these 2 cases
Tested: windows, h5committest
-N, --nan Avoid NaNs detection
Note: there is no shell script run for datasets with NaN because the output is non portable (different results and NaN strings for different systems)
Tested: windows, linux
PG compiler complains about array out of bounds (a rank of zero was not checked)
Adding a scalar dataset to the test generator program. this case is run on a previous existing run, the case was added to 2 existing files

Description:
- Remove need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH when using shared szip library.
- Libtool 2.2.6a is now used to generate libraries.
- 'make check install' dependency bug is fixed, and should no longer
break the build.
- removed hard coding of shell in config/commence.am, as this causes
problems on Solaris with the new version of libtool.
- RELEASE.txt with appropriate changes.
Tested:
- kagiso, smirom, linew (merged from 1.8, pretty quick tests)

No need for h5committest, just whitespace changes...
Summary: when using h5diff to compare the results of h5repack (or other tools that copy one HDF5 file to another), a new option is needed to allow h5diff to make an "absolute" comparison of the 2 files. This is the "contents" mode explained in the usage below.
If this mode is present, objects in both files must match (must be exactly the same). If this does not happen, the tool returns an error code of 1 (instead of the success code of 0)
Changes to the h5repack test script: the call to h5diff was changed to include -c (maintaining the previous -q).
tested: windows, linux, solaris
The name of the files are now given by its full name relative to $srcdir
To avoid the printing of the complete full path of the test file, that hides
all the other parameters for long paths, the printing of the command line
is done first in TESTING with the name only of the test file, not its full path
the printing in the expected output that had the file name was removed as well as 3 tests that tested error messages in which the file name was present
tested: linux (in 2 different build directories relative to $srcdir), solaris
bug fixes.
Description:
Added code to create an empty hdf5 (named h5diff_empty.h5) in order to test
if h5diff compares correctly an empty hdf5 vs. a non-empty one.
Tested:
Tested in kagiso of h5diffgentest itself.
Verified by h5dump that h5diff_empty.h5 was indeed empty.
Then "h5diff h5diff_empty.h5 h5diff_basic1.h5" returned 0 (should have
returned non-zero).
Description:
The fortran Makefile.am used HDF_FORTRAN to indicate it is part of the
Fortran API source so that conclude.am will give fortran api prefix in the
test output. The symbox HDF_FORTRAN is also used in configure for a different
purpose (indicated --enable-fortran). They conflicted.
Similar problem for the symbol HDF_CXX.
Solution:
Changed all the involved Makefile.am to use "FORTRAN_API" instead. It is
a more appropriate name. Same for CXX_API.
Along the way, discovered that the Makefile.am of hl/fortran/test and
hl/cxx/test did not have those symbols at all. Added them in.
Platform tested:
Kagiso only. It is a trivia change.
Improvement.
Description:
src/libhdf5.settings was the initial configure summary and is installed.
Then configure is changed to dump a summary of the configure settings to
the output and also append it to src/libhdf5.settings. That created
two different output formats and duplicated information. This is the
initial attempt to clean up this confusion and unify the output format.
It is decided to use the src/libhdf5.settings template as the unified means.
This requires more macros symbols be defined. The following symbols are
all related to generating the src/libhdf5.settings file.
AC_SUBST(EXTERNAL_FILTERS)
AC_SUBST(MPE) MPE=no
AC_SUBST(STATIC_EXEC) STATIC_EXEC=no
AC_SUBST(HDF_FORTRAN) HDF_FORTRAN=no

The src/libhdf5.settings.in has CONDITIONAL's added to it too. The
untrue conditions turned into a "#" and these lines are cleaned by the
post processing script.
Platform tested:
h5committest on kagiso, smirom and linew.
Description: Applying update to autotools that was applied to 1.8 a couple
of weeks ago to the trunk.
Updated bin/reconfigure script to reflect the new versions of
libtool and automake in the /home1/packages/ directory.
Rearranged configure.in script. When using libtool 2.2.2, the
libtool script doesn't generate until later in the configuration
process, so I had to move a test that parsed through the libtool
script to a point after where it was actually being generated.
Ran libtoolize on the project, and ran bin/reconfigure to
regenerate configure and Makefile.in's throughout.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew (h5committest)
Correct the prototype for H5Sselect_elements() to take an 'hsize_t *' for
the coordinates, instead of 'hsize_t **'.
Tested on:

Add work-around to allow reading files that were produced with a buggy
earlier version of the library, which could create objects with the wrong
object header message count. There is now a configure flag
"--enable-strict-format-checks" which triggers a failure on reading a file
with this sort of corruption (when enabled) and allows the object to be read
(when disabled). The default value for the "strict-format-checks" flag is
yes when the "debug" flag is enabled and no when the "debug" flag is disabled.
Note that if strict format checks are disabled (allowing objects with
this particular kind of corruption to be read) and the file is opened with
write access, the library will re-write the object header for the corrupt
object with the correct # of object header messages.
This closes bugzilla bug #1010.

2) Removing configuration of c++/src/H5cxx_pubconf.h file.
Reasoning: the additional pubconf file caused compilation complications, this is cleaner.
Tested: kagiso, smirom
Description: added new configuration to generate a pubconf file
in the c++/src directory, H5cxx_pubconf.h. When C++
compiler recognizes 'offsetof', the macro
H5_CXX_HAVE_OFFSETOF is defined in the new
pubconf file.
tested: kagiso, smirom
On Windows, Mingw interprets all parameters starting with '/' as paths, and replaces the '/' with its home directory, "C:\Windows\msys\". This was a problem in h5diff tests such as:
h5diff h5diff_101.txt $FILE1 $FILE1 /g1/d1 g1/d2 -v
I've removed the leading '/', as h5diff will interpret it the same either way.
Tested:
kagiso, linew, and smirom, via h5committest
mingw on Windows XP
Description: a new configure flag has been created that will now set a macro
in the test/Makefile. The flag is with-default-vfd=. When set to
a virtual file driver (e.g. "--with-default-vfd=sec2"), the macro
DEFAULT_VFD will hold this value.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew
file size from MPI_File_get_size. Bypass this problem by replacing it with
stat. Add an option --disable-mpi-size in configure to indicate this function
doesn't work properly. Add a test in testpar/t_mpi.c, too. If it returns wrong
file size, print out a warning.
Tested on kagiso (parallel) because already tested the same change to v1.6 on
several platforms (kagiso, cobalt, copper, and sol).
Bug fix: the macro used for percentage in the unsigned types needed a cast to signed (the difference can be negative)
Unlike the 1.6 branch the unsigned long long conversion to float is supported by H5Tconvert , so the test commented for 1.6 is run (tools/testfiles/h5diff_16_2.txt)
Description: Multiple copies of Copyright appeared in Makefile.in. This was
due to automake copying the copyright right in the included files such as
config/commence.am.
Solution: Automake treats double hashes as comments and does not copy them
to Makefile.in. Changed all the copyright notices in config/*.am to use
double hashes for the Copyright right notice.
Tested: kagiso via bin/reconfigure.
Tested platform:
Kagiso only since it is only a comment block change. If it works in one
machine, it should work in all, I hope. Still need to check the parallel
build on copper.
It seems that while Cygwin supports the time command, it has trouble with
the syntax
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" time ./testhdf5
and complains.
The solution is to test the above case in configure and not to use the time
command if it fails; Cygwin is fine with
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" ./testhdf5
Tested on Cygwin and kagiso. This feature shouldn't be a major compatibility
problem since every platform but Cygwin is already fine with the current
syntax.

Added new tests for this feature to the file generator program and to
the shell script
The version of libtool used by HDF5 isn't directly affected by the reconfigure
script; instead, libtoolize --force must be used by hand. Libtool was the
source of the problem, so rolling its version back to 1.5.14 should solve the
issue (at least temporarily).
Reconfigure should still work on both heping and kagiso.
Tested on heping, kagiso, and tg-login3.
Should disable linking against shared libraries in Fortran for compilers that
don't support shared libraries.
Should also fix problem when the wrong Fortran file extension was specified.
If these changes don't solve the Daily Test issues, I'll look at backing out
the autotool version change until I have time to fix them.
Tested on heping, kagiso, juniper.
h5diff: print a message of "not comparable" in a case where the relative error
compare is not possible, due to the denominator being zero. Modified
the test file generator program to include a example for this and a new
test on 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
Add "use the latest format" support for dataspace object header encode/
decode routines and clean up format a bit for the latest format (new to 1.8.x

Remove storing 'perm' parameter for array datatypes in memory and the file,
and add test to make certain that if any user applications are attempting to
store them, we get some reports back. (Should be unlikely, since the RefMan
says that the parameter is not implemented and is unsupported).
Carry those changes into the tests, etc.
Clean up a bunch more compiler warnings.

File format is not stable, don't keep files produced!
Description:
First stage of checkins modifying the format of groups to support creation

Since these examples need to follow filesystem paths, the Makefiles need
to create directories in the examples directory; added this to the
Makefile.am.
Tested on Windows, mir, juniper
Users can create external links using H5L_create_external(). These links
point to an object in another HDF5 file. Users can alter the behavior of
external links or create new kinds of links by registering callbacks
using the H5L interface.
Added tests, tools support, etc.
Also a number of other, minor changes have been made (some restructuring of
the H5L interface, for instance).
Additional documentation and examples are forthcoming.
"make check-vfd" will now run all tests in the test directory with different
file drivers (at least, all of those tests that use the testing framework's
FAPL). Tests that fail will be skipped.
This is not a perfect fix, but is better than nothing.
Along with this change, check-vfd should be added to the Daily Tests.
Feature
Description:
Revised Link APIs.
Solution:
New link APIs use H5L*
H5*create_expand do not create links to the objects created; this must
be done manually with H5Llink.
Added APIs to link an object given its ID (H5Llink), to copy links (H5Lcopy),
and changed creation APIs (H5Lcreate_hard and H5Lcreate_soft) and query
API (H5Lget_linkinfo instead of H5Gget_objinfo).
All old APIs are still supported in H5Gdeprec.c .
Platforms tested:
sol, mir, copper
Misc. update:
Forgot to update MANIFEST and release docs. Will do after checkin.

Configuration feature
Description:

Bug fix - bugzilla #552
Description:
On Cray X1, trying to use : as an argument confused the system.
Solution:
Added a test in configure to see if : as an argument is bad.
If so, skipped the test.
Platforms tested:
mir, Cray X1 (change to configure only)
Bug fix.
Description:
The ${TR}, though avoid the error, is inconvenient. It is needed
because configure.in use the char range in the style of 'a-z'.
The other style of '[a-z]' is more commonly accepted by all tr
but autoconf tends to strip away [], making the syntax rather
clumsy.
Solution:
Learned from autoconf that it avoids the use of character range
by just spell all the letters out. Changed our tr commands to
use those variables defined by autoconf. Also removed the
definition of ${TR} since it will cause inconsistancy when
autoconf also use plain 'tr' in its generated code.
The Makefile.in are changed because the elimination of ${TR} from
configure triggered its removal from all Makefil.in. That is okay
because ${TR} is not used at all in Makefile.
Platforms tested:
h5committested. (sol failed to connected). also tested in shanti
using both /usr/ucb/tr and /bin/tr (the bad one before.)
Misc. update:
Updated both INSTALL and RELEASE files.

very difficult to debug, but involved arithmetic errors.
This change seems to fix it.
Platforms tested:
heping, copper, sol, some Cray X1 (more testing when system comes back up)
new feature
Description:
1) separated the HL library into "public" and "private" header files, with the same caracteristics as the basic library
2) added the public headers to hdf5.h (with a conditional include macro, defined in configure.in)
3) added the path to HL in all Makefile.am 's , because of the inclusion in hdf5.h

Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
the percent error calculation in h5diff using double precision floating point were causing different results
on the release and debug versions of Visual Studio version 6, due to a compiler bug
Solution:
used single precision (float)

Description:
make check-clean didn't clean results of example tests
Solution:
Fixed Makefiles so that check-clean recurses into example directories.
Also a little Makefile cleanup.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, heping, copper
bug fix
Description:
1) added a more explainative usage message
2) the percent relative error for the integer type (division) was being done using integer arythmetic; use floating point arythmetic instead

Misc. update:
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

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:

Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Check in some of the code cleanups from working on the external link
support. (This doesn't include any of the external link features)
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)

Makefile fix
Description:
The h5diff parallel test script depends on the serial test script.
Added this dependency.
Solution:
Used SCRIPT_DEPEND variable. Also added ph5diff (when it is compiled).
Platforms tested:
mir
Improvement
Description:
Some parallel system would dump some system messages in the stdout
stream of an MPI application. That caused the output matching script
to fail unnecessarily.
Solution:
Added the STDOUT_FILTER feature to filter out those system messages
out of stdout result.
Platforms tested:
Tested in LANL Lambda.
Bug fix
Description:
Fortran type generation was broken in two ways. Fixed both.
Solution:
Firstly, there were a couple of path problems. Fixed a typo and
specified the full path of a file.
Secondly, the dependencies weren't right when building with HDF5-specific
commands (make lib, make check-s, etc.). Tweaked dependencies
to fix the problem.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, sleipnir
Configure feature
Description:
Added 'make trace' target.
Solution:
Added tracing to 1.7. This was done automatically in 1.6, but left out
of 1.7 until now (oops!).
Tracing in 1.7 only happens manually, when the user types 'make trace.'
Tracing automatically requires more framework than it's worth.
I also fixed a couple of tracing bugs and ran trace.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Before this checkin, 'gmake check-s' would fail if there was a file in
the current directory named 'check-s'.
This is fixed under gmake (not sure how to fix for other makes).
Solution:
check, progs, install, etc. are what gmake calls "phony" targets,
which means that no file should be created. These targets can be
specified by a line of the form
.PHONY: check progs install ...
Automake adds this line for targets it knows about, but HDF5 has a
lot of custom rules. This checkin adds a .PHONY line for those rules.
I believe that only gmake recognizes the .PHONY line (at least, pmake
doesn't seem to), but a partial solution is better than none.
This error should occur very rarely anyway (the user has to manually
create files with names like 'build-check-s' or '_test').
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Bug fix/feature
Description:
Added support for -shlib in h5fc and h5c++.
Made check-install use -shlib when only shared libraries have been installed.
Solution:
h5fc and h5c++ didn't recognize -shlib. Stole code from h5cc to link against
shared libraries.
When static libraries are disabled, the examples Makefiles will automatically
use the -shlib option to link against shared libraries. Thus,
--disable-static and make check-install should work together.
Platforms tested:
heping(disable-static, enable-static, fortran, c++), modi4 (disable-static, fortran, c++, parallel, enable-static)
Update copyrights.
Description:
Solution:
This should address almost all of the "simple" cases in the repository.
There's still work to do, but it's going to require actually thinking about
the files in question instead of just copying & pasting.
Bug fix
Description:
Failed parallel tests now cause make to exit with an error.
Solution:
Edited config/conclude.am to throw an error if parallel test programs fail.
Platforms tested:
heping, modi4
new h5diff test
Description:
added a test to the test h5diff script that compares a file to itself.
this test is done to test some features of the library that
open the same file and the root group twice
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Changed configure.in to use an environment variable TR to set the path
to the tr utility.
Solution:
There are two kind of tr on Solaris with slightly different syntax.
HDF5's configure relies on the "standard" tr. Traditionally, HDF5ers
have needed to make sure that the "right" tr was found before the
wrong one in their path; now they can use an environment variable.
Platforms tested:
mir, shanti, sol
Misc. update:
Forgot to update release notes. Off to do that now.
Makefile bug fix
Description:
Previously, automake didn't output rules to build perform/mpi-perf or
the test/gen_* programs.
Now these can be built by typing 'make mpi-perf' (or 'make foo') or by
configuring with --enable-build-all.
Solution:
Automake doesn't like having rules for programs it doesn't build. Tricked
it by having these programs built "sometimes"--whenever the user enables
--build-all. This should be used mostly for testing and to ensure that
these helper programs compile.
***IMPORTANT***
These programs do *not* currently compile. When --enable-build-all is used
(not the default), gen_new_fill fails because it uses an old API. This is
an existing "bug" that has simply been exposed by this checkin.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, modi4, sol
Misc. update:
bug fix.
Description:
When a parallel test script test fails, make would continue because the
way it was setup inside a for loop. Fixed it by issuing an exit 1 inside
the loop.
There was also a typo error in the newer command comparision that it
must be $${chkname} in order to be valid. Also, the test script itself
was not checked in the newer lists. All fixed.
Platforms tested:
h5committested and also hand tested in heping pp mode.
h5diff new feature
Description:
a user asked for the message
"Some objects are not comparable"
to be more noticeable
Solution:
--------------------------------
Some objects are not comparable
--------------------------------
Platforms tested:
linux
Misc. update:
New feature.
Description:
Added the time command to the make check target to report time usage
of the execute of each test and test scripts. This gives us some idea
how long each test takes and some vague idea it is compute bound or
not.
powerpc-ibm-aix5.x:
Change $RUNPARALLEL default setting to allow it being invoked by the
time command.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Feature
Description:
Added H5_CFLAGS, etc. to 1.7 branch.
Now compilation flags can be put in H5_*FLAGS and they'll be used when
building hdf5 but not in h5cc.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Disabled C++ shared libraries for Sun Workshop compiler.
Solution:
This bug only seems to happen when using the -xarch=v9 flag to compile in
64-bit mode, but disabling shared libraries entirely for this compiler is
an easier fix (I don't know how to detect 64 bit mode from the command line).
The framework for disabling shared libraries for other C++ compilers is
in place.
Platforms tested:
sol, mir, sleipnir, modi4
Bug fix/feature
Description:
Disabled shared libraries for a number of Fortran compilers that don't
support them.
This allows other compilers to support shared Fortran libraries.
Solution:
Added a conditional, SHARED_FORTRAN_CONDITIONAL, which is true if
Fortran supports shared libraries. It is set in configure.in.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, colonelk, heping
tidy up.
Description:
MPE option created *.clog file whenever it is executed in MPI.
The cleanup of *.clog files were done in individual Makefile.in.
Often, it is forgotten.
Solution:
Moved the cleaning of *.clog files to CHECK_CLEANFILES in commence.am
so that it is applied whenever check-clean is called.
Platforms tested:
heping pp using MPE.
Bug fixes
Description:
This checkin fixes an occasional error on kelgia on sol during distclean.
It also causes test scripts to depend properly on the programs they're
supposed to be testing.
Solution:
The kelgia bug was due to some files being cleaned by automake and manually.
Removed the manual cleaning in src/Makefile.am.
Test script dependencies now need to be specified manually, since the
makefile can't guess what they test from their name. Currently all test
scripts in a given directory have a single list of dependencies--this was
easy and seems to be sufficient.
These dependencies are listed in the SCRIPT_DEPEND variable in the Makefile.am.
Platforms tested:
heping, mir, modi4, sol
Misc. update:
minor tidy up.
Description:
Changed both test programs and test scripts to use the same suffixes
(.chkexe and .chklog). Changed from .log to .chklog to avoid running
into potential conflicts by other "things" (e.g., config.log).
Tested:
Heping.
Feature and bug patch
Description:
Added the SKIP feature which skips a test.
The latest code will hang the very last test. Skip that test for now.
Platforms tested:
heping pp.
