Move H5Gget_num_objs() and several minor macros, etc. to deprecated
symbols section, replacing it with H5Gget_info().
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)
FreeBSD/64 6.2 (liberty)
Linux/32 2.6 (kagiso)
Linux/64 2.6 (smirom)
AIX/32 5.3 (copper)
Solaris/32 5.10 (linew)
Mac OS X/32 10.4.10 (amazon)
Added a relative error formula to deal with floating point uncertainty
in the comparison of floats and double types.
Added new tests for this feature to the file generator program and to
the shell script
h5diff: print a message of "not comparable" in a case where the relative error
compare is not possible, due to the denominator being zero. Modified
the test file generator program to include a example for this and a new
test on the shell script
1) added a new parameter to the h5diff function diff_array that contains
the beginning position of the hyperslab, so that the total position in
the array is printed correctly when reading by hyperslabs.
2) added a new test to h5diff that reads and diffs by hyperslabs. The
test reads a 1GB dataset, from which a 1KB hyperslab was written with
differences .
3) added the generation of 2 files to the generator program to test the
h5diff hyperslab read.
4) changed the h5diff binary pre-generated file names to be more
descriptive (e.g, instead of file1.h5, made it h5diff_basic1.h5)
5) changed the name of the h5repack options text file to info.h5repack
bug fix
Description:
percent relative error was done using integer arythmetic; use floating point instead
added the case for unsigned long long integer to float conversion
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux (32,64)
AIX
solaris
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
1) the compare flag test was not being put in a correct place, making comparisons attempts that were not supposed to be done
2) some duplicate warnings were being made
Solution:
eliminate the duplicate warnings, put the if compare flag on the correct place
Platforms tested:
linux 32, 64
solaris
Misc. update:
bug fix, new features
Description:
when comparing links , the output for the number of differences found was not being done
Solution:
print it
add 3 more tests that test the output of differences for 1) groups 2) datatypes 3) links
Platforms tested:
linux
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
when 2 objects were not comparable, the final print information for the non verbose mode printed "0 differences found"
Solution:
replaced instead with a Summary message that says
"Some objects were not comparable"
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
Misc. update:
bug fixes
Description:
the return error code for a function was not initialized.
in HP-UX it happened that this variable was initialized to -1
causing the function to return with an error condtion
solution : initialized the variable to 0
the name of the dataset was printed after the differences in verbose mode
and report when differences were found
solution : check first if differences were found and then
print the name of dataset and differences
in verbose mode always print the name first
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
aix
solaris
Misc. update:
h5diff and h5repack changes
Description:
h5diff
introduced the following four modes of output:
Normal mode: print the number of differences found and where they occured
Report mode: print the above plus the differences
Verbose mode: print the above plus a list of objects and warnings
Quiet mode: do not print output (h5diff always returns an exit code of 1 when differences are found)
h5repack
added an extra parameter for SZIP filter (coding method)
the new syntax is
-f SZIP=<pixels per block,coding>
(pixels per block is a even number in 2-32 and coding method is 'EC' or 'NN')
Example of use:
./h5repack -i file1 -o file2 -f SZIP=8,NN -v
updated usage messages, test scripts and files accordingly
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
AIX
solaris
Misc. update:
added new test files for h5diff
bug fix
Description:
the criteria for determining the correct switch case cast to void* to type* was the data size read from disk.
this was causing problems on Cray T3E, where all integer except char are 8 bytes long
Solution:
changed the criteria for using the memory size instead, which is determined by the same function
that reads the data into memory
the messages " using memory NATIVE_TYPE_X" were removed, because they might not coincid on different
platforms.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (rockaway)
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
IRIX 6.5 (modi4)
Misc. update:
added more tests, described in the test matrix
Description:
test -r
test -l
expanded -d, -p and -n tests
test different types to include links and named types
test for non supported classes, e.g bitfield, opaque , etc
