Bug fix.
Description:
Allow H5Tget_native_type() to handle opaque fields in compound datatypes.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
too minor to require h5committest
Optimization
Description:
Improve the time this takes to run by hoisting a check for the signed-ness
of the source and destination datatypes out of inner loop. (Speeds up test time
by almost 1/3)

Code cleanup
Description:
Add C++ and FORTRAN wrappers for new H5Pdelete_filter routine, along with
documentation and a note in the release notes.

Too minor for full h5committest
new library function H5Pdelete_filter
deletes one or all filters from a dataset creation property list
this was done for the NONE option of h5repack, added tests for this feature
added a test for the new function in /test/dsets.c

Bug fix
Description:
C++ compilers do not like the variable name new which is a kind word
for C++. Changed it to newval instead.
Platforms tested:
Tested in Copper which is the one complained about the name.
New feature.
Description:
Added function SetTestVerbosity() so that other applications can
set the verbosity explicitedly without the whole testframe taking
over.
Added Verbose queries shorthands to make code more readable and
easier to change the levels of low, medium and high.
Platforms tested:
Eirene (both serial and parallel).
Misc. update:
Improvement.
Description:
Verbosity level were specified by numbers which are not meaningful
and prone to typos.
Solution:
Adapted the Verbosity predefined level symbols from HDF4
and changed all numberic verbosity to symbolic values.
(Still need to convert some left over macros like MESSAGE.)
Platforms tested:
Eirene.
No h5committest since this is trivial.
Misc. update:
Add tests & docs
Description:
Added tests for the recent B-tree bug fixes & document their fix in the
release notes.

Bug fix
Description:
Correct two problems with variable-length datatypes in datasets:
- When overwriting an entire dataset, writing the fill value to the
file would be skipped, causing problems for VL datatypes when
objects in the file had been unlinked (and thus the space in the
file was not all zeros)
- When an application has set a fill-value for a dataset and the
dataset's datatype contained a VL datatype, the library was filling
space on disk with the memory form of the VL information, instead
of the disk form.

Code cleanup & reorganization
Description:
Move further in the testing framework cleanup, eliminating all the
global variables (moving them into testframe.c as static variables) from the
testing framework code and moving it into the libh5test.a.

Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
When two property lists are compared, the H5Pequal routine was just
comparing the raw information for the property values. This causes problems
when the raw information contains pointers to other information.
Solution:
Allow a 'compare' callback to be registered for properties, so that a user
application get perform the comparison itself, allowing for "deep" compares of
the property value.
This was exported to the H5Pregister & H5Pinsert routines in the development
branch, but not the release branch.

Code cleanup
Description:
Refactor library testing framework (used for the testhdf5 & ttsafe tests)
to remove almost all of the duplicated code, moving the common code into a
new 'testframe.c' source file.
Platforms tested:

Fixed a dumb mistake.
Description:
Other tests barked at the changes.
Solution:
Move the declaration of Index and Test[] into h5test.c.
Platforms tested:
Tested in eirene.
Misc. update:
Code reorg.
Description:
Move the InitTest() from individual tests (testhdf5 and ttsafe) to
libh5test (h5test.c) so that it can be shared among all tests.
Platforms tested:
Only tested in Eirene via serial with thread-safe enabled.
No other platforms test since this is pretty trivial.
Bug fix
Description:
Add special-case handling to floating-point conversion tests to avoid
problems with denormalized values on Cray T3E & T90 platforms. (Still not
working on Cray SV1, but at least it's closer).
Solution:
Detect denormalized values and don't try to operate on them on the Crays.

Bug fix
Description:
Range check the szip 'pixels per block' against the chunk size of the
dataset when attempting to create a new dataset, since the szip library
requires the PPB to be at least the size of the fastest changing dimension
in the chunk.

Description:

the file to set the extent type correctly.

Omnibus floating-point bug fix changes
Description:
There are a number of problems in the floating-point conversion code that
were exposed by Ray's recent int<->float checkin:
- The 'my_isnan' code in test/dtypes.c was broken and would always return
true. The meant that the actual values in the float<->float conversion
tests were _never_ checked, hiding the other bugs included in this
checkin.
- A recent change I made to the type conversion code used "FLT_MIN" instead
of "-FLT_MAX" for the most negative 'float' value for the double->float
conversion, which meant that any the negative number that was converted
from a double to a float would have been mapped to zero, essentially.
- A change that Robb appeared to have made ~2.5 years ago to the "generic"
float->float conversion routine appears to be incorrect and I've backed
it out.
- Floating-point conversions on SGI's which converted denormalized values
would be mapped to zero instead of being propertly preserved in the new
type. This was addressed by an SGI-specific system call to prevent the
behavior.
Solution:
Described above, generally.

Bug fix
Description:
Variable length strings and sequences with NULL pointers were not handled
by library, causing problems access the data. This also affected fill values
for variable-length datatypes.
Solution:
Address the issues in the library by detecting NULL sequences/strings
and avoid trying to convert them.
Patched up dumper to display NULL sequences/strings.

Bug fix & code cleanup
Description:
Allowing the library to call malloc with a size of 0 bytes causes problems
for some users, so we check for allocations of 0 bytes and disallow them now.
Cleaned up some code which could call malloc with 0 size.
Changed some code calling HDmalloc directly to call H5MM_malloc(), which
allows us to check for 0 sized allocations.

Description:
Single hyperslab selections (which were set with only one call to
H5Sselect_hyperslab) that had dimensions that could be "flattened" but were

Re-work "flattening" code to handle this case properly.
