Code cleanup
Description:
Clean up a few loose ends and warnings for the 1.6 compatibility changes
to the error API.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
too minor to require h5committest
Update
Description:
Updated the Copyright statement
Platforms tested:
Linux (This change is only in the comments, so I just check that the
modules still compile)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
The "system scope" for threads isn't supported on all platforms.
Solution:
Add detection of this feature to the configure script and check for
"H5_HAVE_SYSTEM_SCOPE_THREADS" in the appropriate places.
Platforms tested:
modi4 w/threadsafe
New feature for developers.
Description:
Added "function stack" tracing to library. This allows developers (there
is no public API) to call H5FS_print within the library and get a listing
of the functions traversed to reach that point in the library. Eventually,
I may add support for reporting the parameters to each function also...
Mainly for debugging parallel I/O programs, but I think it will come in
handy in other cases also.
The function stack tracking is controlled with a configure switch:
--enable-funcstack, which defaults to enabled currently. When we branch
for 1.6, we should change the default setting on the branch to be disabled.
Also, added a destructor to the thread-specific keys when thread-safety is
turned on in the library. Otherwise, they were leaking memory and causing
difficult to debug errors in threaded programs (like the test/ttsafe test).
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) w/thread-safety enabled.
Misc. update:
Updated MANIFEST with new files added (src/H5FS.c & src/H5FDprivate.h)
Update release_docs/RELEASE with thread-safety bug fix.
Update test
Description:
Some of the performance improvements changed the errors that are reported
for creating a duplicated dataset in a file, causing this test's hard-coded
errors to check for to fail.
Solution:
Updated error stack reported for dataset creation failure.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) w/threads
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The error codes checked for were hardcoded into the program.
Solution:
Used the "enum" names instead.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The table of error messages was updated in H5E.c. The change wasn't
reflected in this test because, sadly, we use hardcoded numerical
values for the "error" we want to check for and not the symbols.
Solution:
Bumped up the error number from 32 to 34 to coincide with the error
we expect.
Platforms tested:
Linux
were only creating one for all of them). Also changed so that, if they
got an error, it actually specifies that the tests failed on the screen
instead of succeeded ;-)
that all HDF5 API functions are protected by a mutex lock. Basically,
serialized all API calls. To use it, use
configure --enable-threadsafe --with-pthread
