Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris 5.7
IRIX 6.5 (64)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Variable length strings and sequences with NULL pointers were not handled
by library, causing problems access the data. This also affected fill values
for variable-length datatypes.
Solution:
Address the issues in the library by detecting NULL sequences/strings
and avoid trying to convert them.
Patched up dumper to display NULL sequences/strings.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
h5committest
bug fix, clean code
Description:
a malloced buffer was not release
cleaned some compiler warnings
Platforms tested:

Misc. update:
Bug fix & code cleanup
Description:
Propagate error value out of function, so that failures can be detected by
testing scripts.
Clean up a few compiler warnings while I'm here.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
too minor to require h5committest
Improvement
Description:
If the library is built in parallel mode, then name the "h5cc" and
"h5fc" programs "h5pcc" and "h5pfc" resp. This saves the user from
worrying about mixing serial and parallel builds of the library and
having to specify the pathnames and so-forth.
Platforms tested:
Linux (w/ parallel & Fortran)
Modi4 (w/ parallel & Fortran)
Sol (Serial & Fortran & C++)
Misc. update:
Updated release/docs/RELEASE
h5diff new feature
Description:
added compare for attributes
a new options flag (-a) was added to the options structure. it is 0 by default (no compare )
the output of the compare is the same that for datasets, and all the other flags also apply for attributes
(the memory compare is done in the same function diff_array)
all the other requirements for compare of datasets (type, space) are identical too
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris 2.7
IRIX
Misc. update:
bug fix.
Description:
It sometimes complained of wrong number of argument to test.
This happened when more than 1 tool are redeployed.
The problem is due to an unquoted variable expanded into
multiple strings, confusing the test command.
Fixed by putting quotes around it.
Platforms tested:
only tested in eirene since it is trivial.
Misc. update:
h5diff improvment
Description:
changed a call to exit(1) for return -1 for user friendiness in the h5diff function
in the case that H5Fopen fails

Description:
implemented some features of h5repack , mostly borrowed from hrepack
like
1) the parsing of options
2) building a list of options
3) printing formats
added a test program that generates files and calls h5diff to compare
the input and output files
Platforms tested:

IRIX
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Change field member count and indices for compound and enumerated types from
'int' to 'unsigned' to better reflect actual use.
Cleaned up a few other minor compiler warnings, etc.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena)
too minor to require h5committest
Code Improvement
Description:
Changed from passing a structure into a function by value into
passing it in by pointer. Noticed this while compiling with a highly
optimizing compiler which took >30 minutes to analyze the program
(granted, this is the compiler's fault, but in general, it's better
to pass large structures in by pointer and not by value).
Platforms tested:
Linux (specific to h5import, so only needed to test on one platform)
Misc. update:
Bug fixes and code cleanup
Description:
Corrected output of array separator when vlen separator was needed.
datatypes.
Parts of formatting cleanup to greatly reduce the amount of trailing
whitespace emitted in output.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Bug fixes and code cleanup
Description:
Changes to h5dump code:
- Dump shared datatypes for any class of datatype, not just compound
datatypes.
- Cleaned up formatting to greatly reduce the amount of trailing
whitespace emitted in output. Also removed some spurious blank
lines from named datatype output.
Added code to generate named datatype attribute test file.
Added tests for dumping named datatypes in attributes for both DDL and
XML output.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
h5committest
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
bug fix
Description:
h5diff would incur a segmentation fault in Alpha clusters when
the percentage option is used. This was due to memory aliagment
issue when the options variable is declared as a local variable
in main().
Moved the declaration to a global declaration.
Platforms tested:
"h5committested"
And tested at cluster QT of SNL.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Remove various "fixtype" routines which duplicate (and actually pre-date)
the functionality in H5Tget_native_type in favor of having the tools call
H5Tget_native_type(). This provides the same functionality (actually better
functionality, since the old "fixtype" routines didn't handle alignment of
compound fields correctly) and reduces the amount of code to maintain.
Add additional tests to dump out a "complex" compound datatype which
exercises more code in the library for aligning compound fields correctly.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Updated the copyright notice--mostly by rearranging
some text to make them consistent.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
"h5committested"--sol is down, so, no SUn test.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Object references were not getting written out correctly to the file, with
recent changes to their memory structure.
Solution:
Convert the object references correctly.
Platforms tested:

updating the addresses displayed.
Platforms tested:
h5committested
Code cleanups & bug fixes
Description:
Lots of changes to chase 'objno' and 'fileno' changes in H5G_stat_t struct,
including changing the output of object IDs from "<number>:<number>" to just
"<number>".
Same change to XML schema XIDs from "xid_<number>-<number>" to just
"xid_<number>"
Cleaned up a number of memory leaks
Use the H5_PRINTF_HADDR_FMT macro for printing 'haddr_t's
Platforms tested:
h5committested
Refactored code
Description:
Added 'unsigned flags[2]' field and changed 'objno' field from 'unsigned
long[2]' to 'haddr_t' (to reflect changes in H5G_stat_t)
Platforms tested:
h5committested
Refactored code
Description:
Use H5E_BEGIN_TRY/H5E_END_TRY macros around blocks where errors shouldn't
be printed, instead of managing 'automatic error' information.
Use new 'flags' field in table objects where appropriate
Chase changes to 'fileno' and 'objno' fields of H5G_stat_t
Platforms tested:
h5committested
Code cleanup & refactoring
Description:
Use H5E_BEGIN_TRY/H5E_END_TRY macros around blocks where errors shouldn't
be printed, instead of managing 'automatic error' information.
Changes to use new 'flags' fields in the table of objects, since the 'objno'
field can't be [ab]used any longer.
Platforms tested:
h5committested
Code cleanup
Description:
Use H5E_BEGIN_TRY/H5E_END_TRY macros around code which shouldn't display
the error stack on failure, instead of setting and resetting the automatic
error printing routines.
Platforms tested:
h5committested
bug fix
Description:
1. function rindex is not recognized by windows. Using strrchr instead.
Thereafer strings.h is not necessary.
2. Variable p_type is defined as "hid_t" type at one function; but it is never used.
At the end of that function, H5Tclose(p_type) is assigned. It may cause problems.
So erase two lines.
Solution:
See above
Platforms tested:
windows 2000, linux 2.4, sol 2.7, AIX 5.1.
Misc. update:

bug fix
Description:
if the user incorrectly put the option -n20 (instead of -n 20) as the last argument
h5diff tried to parse the 20 as an extra argument, causing a failure
if ('-' !=argv[i+1][0] )
Solution:
add an extra test for the case that option is the last argument
if ( i<argc-1 && '-' !=argv[i+1][0] )
Platforms tested:
linux . this is too trivial for all platforms test
Misc. update:

Removed the LIBTOOLS macro as it wasn't necessary
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (small fix)
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
The SUBDIRS macro is now defined as "" in the config/commence.in
file. We shouldn't have definitions of this macro before the
inclusion of config/commence.in.
Solution:
Placed all definitions of SUBDIRS after config/commence.in inclusion.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (Small fix yet again).
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
Changes needed to make "pmake" work on Modi4.
Solution:
Needed to add some null macro defines in the commence.in files.
Needed to remove a dependence on LIBH5TEST in the fortran make
since LIBH5TEST isn't used in the fortran stuff.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (small change)
Misc. update:
Description: H5Tget_native_type fails for multiple kinds of datatype on Cray; it fails
fix-length string type, too.
Platforms tested: Cray, h5committest

Cleanup
Description:
h5dumpgentest is already included in TEST_PROGS. Removed its old
entry in PROGS.
Platforms tested:
Only in Copper since this is trivial.
Misc. update:

Misc. update:
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The flags for the linker on MacOS X were invalid.
Solution:
If this is a darwin platform (MacOS X), then don't specify the
runtime linker flags.
Platforms tested:
MacOSX (since it only affects it...)
Misc. update:
Minor corrections to match the man pages. Code provided by Pankaj.
Description:
* do not accept more than 30 file names
* corrected error messages.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Tested on verbena.
Already tested on several platforms before integration.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
This would sometimes coredump in machines like PSC Alpha cluster
or linux icc if -g is not used.
Solution:
The real problem was because char string arrays were declared
without including space for the null terminator. E.g.,
char s[5][2]={ "s1", "s2", ...}
is not correct. Increased the size and also need to change
the H5S... definitions too.
Platforms tested:
"h5committested"--the h5dumpgentest passed without problem though
it failed in Fortran but that is a current known problem.
Tested in verbena using icc and also in PSC's cluster.
Misc. update:
Can't find this error in the v1.5 know problem list.
bug fix
Description:
unsigned integers were not printed out correctly
Solution:
added %u and %lu to the list of formats
Platforms tested:
Windows 2000 (octopus)
Linux 2.4 (rockaway)
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
IRIX 6.5 (modi4)
Misc. update:
h5diff support for long_long
Description:
added h5diff support for long_long;
No automatic test was added because
it seems that the printf format of long_long is slightly different in Linux and IRIX(modi4),
because the diff command complained about a difference in the 2 test files for long_long;
visually, it seems that in IRIX an extra space is added after the print (or maybe it is
just me that is seeing extra spaces :=)
this test is test 5.8, commented in testh5diff.sh
Platforms tested:
Windows 2000 (octopus)
Linux 2.4 (rockaway)
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
IRIX 6.5 (modi4)
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
The order the libraries are included in the compilation line is very
important.
Solution:
Need to specify the libraries in the order that they are given. If
we're building the application staticly, then use the static HDF5
library.
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Verbena
Arabica
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
the signed / unsigned comparison was not properly handled.
the fixtype function sets the sign for the memory type the same sign as found on disk
and the array_diff function only handled signed cases
Solution:
addded for each INTEGER size type an OR condition with the unsigned version
if the datatypes have different signs , comparison is NOT supported
Platforms tested:
Windows 2000 (octopus)
Linux 2.4 (rockaway)
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
IRIX 6.5 (modi4)
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
Not all echo commands honors the '-n' option. In those cases,
the output look weired though recognizable.
Solution:
Eliminated the use of -n option. A better fix would be having
configure to set the proper use of the echo command.
Platforms tested:
only on sasn100 (a sun frontend of Janus).
No committest since this is just a simple shell script change.
Bug Fix
Description:
Two things:
- static libraries may depend upon the HDF5 library. We should
put them before the HDF5 library on the commandline instead of
afterwards to avoid conflict.
- the CFLAGS weren't being used during linking. This was causing
problems on Arabica where the flags are important to
distinguish between building a 32-bit and 64-bit application.
Solution:
- Added logic so that it catches the static libraries and puts them
before the hdf5 library on the command line. WARNING: This may not
work in all situations...but it should be okay for the good
majority.
- added the CFLAGS macro to the commandline...
Platforms tested:
LInux (Colonelk)
Arabica
Modi4 (Parallel)
(Small changes so doesn't need full h5committesting...)
Misc. update:
Purpose: bug fix for Tru64 and test of the latest szip library.
Description: h5diff uses basename function that also is defined
in the system string.h file. That caused compilation to
fail.
Solution: renamed basename to h5diff_basename
Platforms tested: verbena, arabica, arabica-64,
and PSC Compaq machine.
Misc. update:
bug fix and enhancement
Description:
combined the --simple option to the display of NATIVE datatypes
with the -S option , the print of the datatype will always display the full description
making it possible to do an automatic test for catching differences on output
made the case for printing the type of bitfield data, which was not handled
the new test generates a dataset with 10 attributes, each one a different datatype
