fortran/config/powerpc-ibm-aix5.x
To cover AIX 5.x.
Removed Files:
fortran/config/powerpc-ibm-aix4.2.1.0
fortran/config/powerpc-ibm-aix4.3.2.0
These files are outdated and have been replaced by powerpc-ibm-aix4.x.
Modified Files:
MANIFEST
Update it.
Platforms tested:
Only on LLNL blue. LLNL SP are the only machines that use
these files and that I have access.
Update
Description:
Added new files to the MANIFEST and added a new configure switch for
enabling building of the Flexible parallel HDF5 module.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 Eirene Arabica
Purpose:
Bug fix, code improvement
Description:
Fortran tests didn't cleanup created files. Also HDF5_PREFIX and
HDF5_PARAPREFIX were not used to specify location of the files.
There was a redundant file in the testpar directory that contained
an error reporting function used by both serial and parallel tests.
Solution:
Created library h5test_fortran.a that contains functions used by the
serial and parallel tests. It includes Fortran and C functions that
may be called from Fortran programs to report errors, to modify
file names and to cleanup files after run. Modified test code to
use new functions.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.2 (eirene) serial
IRIX64 (modi4) parallel with HDF5_PREFIX and HDF5_PARAPREFIX set to $SCR
Solris 2.7 with mpich 1.2.4 with HDF5_PARAPREFIX set to /tmp/epourmal
Purpose:
Design for compact dataset
Description:
Compact dataset is stored in the header message for dataset layout.
Platforms tested:
arabica, eirene.
Code cleanup
Description:
Move get/set routines for each type of property list (file creation,
dataset creation, file access and dataset transfer) into their own source
code module.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir)
Compress I/O Test Add
Description:
This is the initial check-in of the compress I/O test. It will write
out compressed buffers to a file.
I need to implement a write of uncompressed data first for
comparison...
Platforms tested:
Linux
Update
Description:
Updated the way we used the AC_INIT macros so that it's current to
the new standard way and not deprecated anymore.
Also, added a test for some functions during parallel Fortran
configure. This required the creation of an H5config_fortran.h file
so that we can test for these...
Platforms tested:
Elena is going to test the changes to the fortran after she checks in
her other code. I will test on SDSC machines after getting her code.
The other changes were tested on Linux.
Autotools Update
Description:
I've updated autoconf, automake, and libtool to the latest/greatest
versions; 2.53, 1.6, and 1.4.2 resp.
Many changes come with the new versions:
- ltconfig is no longer used
- acconfig.h is no longer used (#define values are declared with
the macro)
- regeneration of all of the aclocal.m4, configure, and
H5config.h.in files.
- new config.{guess,sub} files
- new ltmain.sh file
Platforms tested:
AIX (blue), and Linux
Purpose:
Feature Add
Description:
Added support for dumping Group Comments. This involved a
modification of the DDL as well.
Solution:
Steal code from h5ls and put it in the h5dump. The ddl.html file was
updated as normal. And a test was created...
Platforms tested:
Dangermouse, Modi4, Kelgia
Removing the DPSS (gridstorage) driver source code.
Description:
The DPSS (using Grid-Storage) driver is retired.
Removed the configure option with-gridstorage from configure.in.
Cvs remove the following files
./src/H5FDdpss.c
./src/H5FDdpss.h
./test/dpss_read.c
./test/dpss_write.c
Regenerated Dependencies files (some had to be hand-edited since
'make depend' did not cover them.)
Removed reference to DPSS Virtual file driver from H5F.c.
Platforms tested:
modi4 (Parallel; -with-gass=...), eirene, arabica (fortran, cxx).
