Updating autotools
Description:
Installed new autotools and used them to reconfigure HDF5.
- Automake upgraded to 1.11
- Autoconf upgraded to 2.64
- bin/reconfigure script edited to use new versions (on jam), and
run to generate new configure script and Makefile.in's.
- configure.in script edited to add "_cv_" to all AC_CACHE_VAL strings
(in order to comply with new autoconf standard).
Tested:
Tested on machines jam, smirom, liberty, linew.
Tested w/ features c++, fortran, parallel.
Tested w/ compilers gcc, pgcc, icc.
Further testing via Daily Tests should catch any other outliers. Upon
passing DT's, I'll propogate the new tools into 1.8, hdf4, et cetera.
The file used for input is located in the common source tools for testfiles, in tools/testfiles
Modified the h5repack shell script to read files from this location (h5repack reads its input files from a dedicated testfiles location in h5repack/testfiles)
Changed the h5diff open file call to use h5tools_fopen, so that it can open all file drivers
Tested: windows, linux, solaris
- Updated bin/reconfigure to use latest version of automake (1.10.2).
Re-generated Makefile.in's by running bin/reconfigure.
- Added libtool version numbers to c++, fortran, hl, hl c++, and hl fortran
libraries.
Tested:
jam, liberty, smirom
Description:
Changed Skip list package to use a deterministic skip list. This allows the
skip list package to avoid calling rand() and srand(), even on machines without
rand_r(). There is no longer a p-value or maximum level for skip lists.
Tested: jam, smirom, linew (h5committest)
ISSUE : the tools use the following formula to read by hyperslabs: hyperslab_size[i] = MIN( dim_size[i], H5TOOLS_BUFSIZE / datum_size) where H5TOOLS_BUFSIZE is a constant defined of 1024K. This is OK as long as the datum_size does not exceed 1024K, otherwise we have a hyperslab size of 0 (since 1024K/(greater than 1024K) = 0). This affects h5dump. h5repack, h5diff
SOLUTION: add a check for a 0 size and define as 1 if so.
TEST FOR H5DUMP: Defined a case in the h5dump test generator program of such a type (an array type of doubles with a large array dimension, that was the case the user reported). Since the written file commited in svn would be around 1024K, opted for not writing the data (the part of the code where the hyperslab is defined is executed, since h5dump always reads the files). Defined a macro WRITE_ARRAY to enable such writing if needed. Added a run on the h5dump shell script. Added 2 new files to svn: tools/testfiles/tarray8.ddl, tools/testfiles/tarray8.h5. NOTE: while doing this I thought of adding this dataset case to an existing file, but that would add the large array output to those files (the ddls). The issue is that the file list is increasing.
TEST FOR H5DIFF: for h5diff the check for reading by hyperslabs is H5TOOLS_MALLOCSIZE (128 * H5TOOLS_BUFSIZE) or 128 Mb. This makes it not possible to add such a file to svn, so used the same method as h5dump (only write the dataset if WRITE_ARRAY is defined). As opposed to h5dump, the hyperslab code is NOT executed when the dataset is empty (dataset is not read). Added the new dataset to existing files and shell run (tools/h5diff/testfiles/h5diff_dset1.h5 and tools/h5diff/testfiles/h5diff_dset2.h5 and output in tools/h5diff/testfiles/h5diff_80.txt).
TEST FOR H5REPACK: similar issue as h5diff with the difference that the hyperslab code is run. Added a run to the shell script (with a filter, otherwise the code uses H5Ocopy).
tested: linux (h5commitest failed , apparently it did not detect the code changes in /tools/lib that fix the bug: the error in an assertion in the hyperslab of 0. I am sure that making h5ccomitest --distclean will detect the new code , but don't want to wait more 3 hours :-) )
Bug Fix
Description:
Fixing BZ #1381. The --includedir=DIR configure option, which is used
to specify the installation location of C header files, did not work
correctly as the path was hard-coded in config/commence.am. I'm presuming
this is because an older version of automake didn't know where to put
c header files. In any case, removing this line now defaults the includedir
to the same directory that it is currently hard-coded to, and also fixes
the configure flag to allow customization of this value.
Tested:
jam, liberty
the way h5ls prints types, it starts searching for NATIVE types first. One solution would be h5ls not to detect these native types, using for example the same print datatype function that h5dump does, that would make the output look the same on all platforms ("32-bit little-endian integer" would be printed instead). Drawback, this "native" information would not be available. Other solution is to have not one but 2 expected outputs and make the shell script detect the endianess and compare with one output or other
tested: h5committest
Solution: for compound types, recursively apply that check
Two new cases are added
1) the compound type has a different number of members. Message printed is
<obj1> has X members <obj2> has Y members
Where X and Y are the number of members of each compound type being compared
2) the compound type has not comparable types (for example a double and an int at the same index)
In this case the message
Comparison not possible: object1 is of class1 and object2 is of class2
Is replaced with
Comparison not possible: object1 has a class1 and object2 has a class2
Modified the test generator program to have these 2 cases
Added a shell run for these 2 cases
Tested: windows, h5committest
-N, --nan Avoid NaNs detection
Note: there is no shell script run for datasets with NaN because the output is non portable (different results and NaN strings for different systems)
Tested: windows, linux
PG compiler complains about array out of bounds (a rank of zero was not checked)
Adding a scalar dataset to the test generator program. this case is run on a previous existing run, the case was added to 2 existing files
Tested: windows, linux
* Pedro Vicente, pvn@hdfgroup.org, Nov 4, 2008
* Compare the graph and make h5diff return 1 for difference if
* 1) the number of objects in file1 is not the same as in file2
* 2) the graph does not match, i.e same names (absolute path)
* 3) objects with the same name are not of the same type
Introduced a new feature in the tools library regarding command line parsing
In the definition of arguments, an "*" means that the switch can or can not have an optional argument. This "*" is put in the code regarding the letter definition, and it is transparent to the user (e.g b* instead of the previous b: ), where ":" notes a required argument after the letter (and no ":" or "*" notes no argument, mandatory)
Used for the h5dump binary option -b
It can be now
1) -b (defaults to NATIVE)
2) - b NATIVE
3) - b FILE
4) -b LE
5) -b BE
Note: the keyword NATIVE replaces MEMORY
This feature (-b with no argument) was tested with the sequence of h5dump to binary (NATIVE) then h5import to generate an HDF5 file from the binary file and h5diff to compare the 2 HDF5 files
Tested: linux
Description:
- Remove need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH when using shared szip library.
- Libtool 2.2.6a is now used to generate libraries.
- 'make check install' dependency bug is fixed, and should no longer
break the build.
- removed hard coding of shell in config/commence.am, as this causes
problems on Solaris with the new version of libtool.
- RELEASE.txt with appropriate changes.
Tested:
- kagiso, smirom, linew (merged from 1.8, pretty quick tests)
Description: Improved external link traversal of h5dump. h5dump will now
properly avoid all cycles, even those spanning multiple files. Improvement
to the output of committed datatypes. Committed datatypes are now checked
for uniqueness (like other objects). Tests added for these cases.
Tested: kagiso, linew, smirom (h5committest)
Description: Adds capability to h5ls to traverse external links when the -r
(recursive) option is given. Changes to the way absolute path names are patched
in h5trav.c. Changes to the way recursive traversal starting from a non-root
group is handled (which also fixes some preexisting issues). Tests added for
these cases.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew (h5committest)
Remove trailing whitespace from C/C++ source files, with the following
script:
foreach f (*.[ch] *.cpp)
sed 's/[[:blank:]]*$//' $f > sed.out && mv sed.out $f
end
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.5.5 (amazon)
No need for h5committest, just whitespace changes...
datatype versions are encountered.
Description: The library now recognizes some problems with datatype versions in
H5O_decode_helper(), and, if not performing strict format checks, automatically
corrects them. Framework added for other message decode routines to
automatically correct file errors. Datatype version information added to
h5debug.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew (h5committest)
Summary: when using h5diff to compare the results of h5repack (or other tools that copy one HDF5 file to another), a new option is needed to allow h5diff to make an "absolute" comparison of the 2 files. This is the "contents" mode explained in the usage below.
If this mode is present, objects in both files must match (must be exactly the same). If this does not happen, the tool returns an error code of 1 (instead of the success code of 0)
Changes to the h5repack test script: the call to h5diff was changed to include -c (maintaining the previous -q).
tested: windows, linux, solaris
Description:
As part of our Windows cleanup, we try to remove windows-specific tweaks in the source code. There are many instances where Windows code is introduces via ifdef's. We re-evaluate whether they are still required, and found that many of them are not. Others we change to "feature"-specific code, rather than Windows-specific.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS.NET on WinXP
h5committest (kagisopp, smirom, linew)
Description:
In library code, we try not to use system calls directly, but instead use the HD{function} macro instead. This way, we can map special versions of the call on particular systems. Previously, it was all done in H5private.h. However, in an effort to clean up platform-specific definitions, we move all of the Windows macros into a separate file, win32defs.h. This way, we can use the non-Posix versions that Visual Studio sends warnings about.
Some macros are set specifically in the platform-specific header files. Then, any macros left unset will be set by the "default" implementation in H5private.h.
This checkin also cleans up various source files to use the HD* macros when possible.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS.NET on WinXP
