Purpose:
Bugfixes in H5Gset_comment, h5gget_comment_f, and h5gset_comment_f.
(Follow-on to the H5Gget_comment bugfix of last week.)
Description:
Changed C parameter descriptions to indicate the following:
'loc_id' can be file, group, dataset, or named datatype.
'name' can be '.' if 'loc_id' fully describes the object.
'name' is ignored if 'loc_id' is a dataset or named datatype.
Modified h5gget_comment_f and h5gset_comment_f notes accordingly.
Copy edits in H5Gget/set_comment and h5gget/set_comment_f.
Platforms tested:
Safari
Add/Correct documentation - this file was left out by mistake from
this checkin.
Description:
Added doxygen documentation to:
Exception.cpp
H5CompType.cpp
H5FcreatProp.cpp
and corrected some typos in comments for:
H5AbstractDs.cpp
H5EnumType.cpp
H5File.cpp
Platforms:
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
Linux 2.4 (eirene)
Misc. update:
Add documentation and a missing function - incrementally check-in
(Note: these files supposed to be checked in with my checkin on
May 19, but were accidentally left out. -> same log message)
Description:
Added wrapper for H5Tget_nmembers to H5EnumType.*; it was
accidentally left out. Also, added doxygen documentation and
removed outdated comments.
Platforms:
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
Linux 2.4 (eirene)
Windows 2000
Purpose:
H5Gget_comment bugfix
Description:
H5Gget_comment: Changed "Description" text and "Parameters"
descriptions to indicate the following:
'loc_id' can be file, group, dataset, or named datatype.
'name' can be '.' if 'loc_id' fully describes the object.
'name' is ignored if 'loc_id' is a dataset or nemed datatype.
Also corrected the fact that the 'name' parameter description
referred to setting the comment rather than retriving it.
Platforms tested:
Safari
Improvement
Description:
Break up the C99 integer types detection into even smaller
sub-module routines. This has dropped the compile time (with
optimization) from 94 seconds to 6 seconds.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Add prototypes for H5S_select_serial_size() and H5S_select_serialize()
that were causing the library to fail when built with C++ compiler.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/CC=g++
Only affects C++ builds, so no h5committest
Code cleanup
Description:
Changed local variables declaration to static to please compilers.
Platforms tested:
Tested by generating H5Tinit.c and verified it was same as before.
Tested in TG_NCSA.
Bug fix.
Description:
The Example dimension size is incorrect. Changed it to 3.
Platforms tested:
Tested in TG-NCSA which detected the error.
Misc. update:
Add documentation and an overloaded function - incrementally check-in
Description:
Added Attribute::getName that takes no argument for user's convenience.
Also added Doxygen documentation to existing functions in H5Attribute.cpp.
Platforms:
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
Linux 2.4 (eirene)
Windows 2000
Misc. update:
New Feature
Description:
1. A new Fortran c stub for static library hdf5_f90cstub project was added.
2. A new h5importtst project was added into the workspace for h5import test.
3. 4 new hdf5 auto test tools in Windows were added.
Solution:
1. Removed all the *.C files in hdf5_fortran project and put them into the new created
Fortran c stub project hdf5_f90cstub. Now hdf5_fortran project only include *.f90 files.
2. Added a new h5importtst project with h5importtest.c.
3. 4 New hdf5 auto test tools: h5diff, h5ls, h5import, and h5repack were created for hdf5
auto tests in Windows. H5dump auot test tools was also updated.
Platforms tested:
Windows XP with Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and DEC Fortran 6.0.
Misc. update:
Improvement.
Description:
Some compilers, e.g., Intel C v7.0, took a long time to compile
with optimization when a module routine contains many code lines.
Divide up all those types detections macros into subroutines, both
to avoid the compiler optimization error and cleaner codes.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Misc. update:
Code optimization
Description:
Expand the use of macros to inline trivial function pointer lookup and
calls to reduce the overall number of functions invoked during normal operation
of the library.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Too minor to require h5committest

Add more C++ wrappers - incrementally check-in
Description:
Added more wrappers for C H5F functions and added Doxygen documentation
to existing member functions of H5File. This is an incremental check-in
to preserve the code, corresponding tests will follow in a few weeks.
Newly added wrappers are for:
H5Fget_freespace

Code optimization
Description:
Don't make a separate allocation for the selection offset - incorporate
it into the selection structure as a fixed size array.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Description: A new bug is found on HP. There is float exception during conversion from double to
unsigned long long when the value of double is very big.
Solution: Try to catch the problem in configure and skip this part of test.
Platforms tested: kelgia and verbena(mainly these two machines are involved)
Code optimization
Description:
Eliminate some trivial functions with macros that perform the same
operation.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Code optimization
Description:
Defer creating the span trees for hyperslab selections until they are
actually needed (which may be never, in certain circumstances).
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel

Add H5Ztrans.c to hdf5 and hdf5dll projects. Add h5config.h to all.zip.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Windows XP Visual C++ 6.0, DEC Fortran 6.0, and .Net.
Misc. update:
Description: Somehow part of dtypes.c were wiped out by the change yesterday,
causing failure on verbena's PGI compiler. Another issue is to run autoheader
to generate H5config.h.in.
Platforms tested: verbena(changes only matter to it)
Code optimization
Description:
Eliminate many redundant lookups to check for no-op type conversion by
remembering that a type conversion path is the no-op path.
Also, don't allow non-no-op conversions which happen to be no-ops on a
particular machine (such as int<->long conversions on machines where int and
long are the same size and format, etc.) to replace the default no-op
conversion.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel
