revised binary flags, added a new file to the test generator program to
be used in the binary tests
usage is now
-o F, --output=F Output raw data into file F
-b F, --binary=F Binary output, of form F (into file -o F).
Recommended usage is with --dataset=P
Form F of binary output is: MEMORY for memory type,
FILE for the disk file type, LE or BE for pre-existing
little or big endian types
example
./h5dump -d integer -b MEMORY -o out.bin tbinary.h5
Clean up compiler warnings/failures in test/links.c, especially when
--disable-production flag used with --enable-group-revision
Modify binary dumping in h5dump to clean up files created [a band-aid
solution to not actually creating the files in the srcdir, but better than
just leaving the files around... :-/ ]
Tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) (w/ configure flags above)
Too minor to require h5committest
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.
1. changed the -F flag option names to "BE and "LE" for big and little endian
2. added a more verbose usage message for these options
3. add a new test
4. add a make clean instruction to *.bin
new feature
Description:
added support for h5dump to dump binary data using the file type format
added one test to the test script that tests this
Solution:
Platforms tested:
mir
shanti
copper
Misc. update:
new feature. h5dump output of binary data
Description:
a new switch -b FILE_NAME that dumps the contents of memory data to file FILE_NAME in binary form
new program binread.c that reads the contents of this file and outputs it to stdout
added a test for the h5dump shell script that does a run of -b
the binread.c program reads the data used in this run, usage is ./binread FILE_NAME
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
bug fixes
Description:
h5dump/h5ls were not displaying long doubles correctly
Solution:
1) the print datatype functions were incorrectly testing for the valid return value from H5Tequal,
(TRUE), causing the display of an incorrect name of a dataype in error cases from H5Tequal
2) h5tools_print_str did not have a case for native long double
3) added a file generator for a long double dataset
4) added one script test for the long double data (commented , some sytems don't have a native long double match, and the output differs)
5) added a vms file and h5dump script test
Platforms tested:
linux 32, 64
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
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)
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
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/"purify options"
Solaris 2.8 (sol) w/FORTRAN & C++
AIX 5.x (copper) w/parallel & FORTRAN
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/FORTRAN
Linux 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Misc. update:
Bug fix (#264)
Description:
h5dump did not print attribute data in ASCII format when
-r is used.
Solution:
Added the ability to print in ASCII for Attributes Data also.
Added a test for printing Attributes with -r option.
Platforms tested:
H5committested.
Also in heping.
Misc. update:
Update MANIFEST.
h5dump new tests
Description:
added new tests for the print of array indices (nested objects, several ranks)
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
AIX
solaris
Misc. update:
h5dump new tests
Description:
added more tests for the escape/not escape feature for string data (with vlen, with
compound, with char data)
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
h5dump new tests
Description:
added new tests for the -p option, superblock, file contents, fill values, array indices.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
AIX
solaris
Misc. update:
h5dump output change, new tests
Description:
the storage layout output format the storage layout output format had some changes
same for the user defined filter
add an option (-y) for not printing the array indices (default is print indices )
the option for escaping non printable characters covers all characters (default is not escape)
(this might be not very portable, the test files are tstring.ddl and tstringe.ddl )
add tests for the new options
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
Description:
added the code for print strings with new line and display the path of references (new source files h5tools_ref.c and .h )
added a test suite in testh5dump.sh.in for
( note : to create testh5dump.sh , one must redo ./configure; this detects the availability of filters
and generates testh5dump.sh accordingly)
1) storage layout
2) fill value
3) print reference with path
4) print strings with new lines
5) filters
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
Update shell scripts
Description:
Switch to generating the testh5dump.sh script at configure time, so we can
determine which filters are available to test.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
too small to require h5committest
