bug fix.
Description:
-nt is not a universal option for the test command in all platforms.
The use of it in conclude.am cause some platforms to bark at the
Makefile generated.
Solution:
Created a command script bin/newer which tests if file1 is newer
than file2. Replace the "test file1 -nt file2" by
"newer file1 file2".
Platforms tested:
Tested in sol.
Bug fix
Description:
Fixed bugs that caused tests to be unable to find testhdf5.sh during
daily tests, and another that broke sol and shanti.
Solution:
When tests are run, their path is ./$testname .
When scripts are run, their path has no leading "./". Fixed.
Sol and shanti don't recognize the -e option for test, but they do know
-f. Fixed.
Also modified release notes.
Platforms tested:
mir, shanti, heping
Feature: tests now use parallel make and only run once
Description:
When make is invoked in parallel (using the -j option), several tests will
now be run simultaneously. This should speed up testing on a number of
systems.
When a test passes, it creates a foo.chkexe or foo.chksh file, which prevents
the test from running again unless the test or library changes.
Solution:
Most of the changes live in config/conclude.am. Added *.chkexe and *.chksh
files to the list of files to be cleaned at "make mostlyclean" time.
Parallel tests still run one at a time, but use the same make instructions
as serial tests.
Platforms tested:
mir, eirene, sleipnir, pommier, copper, modi4 (some errors occurred, probably
due to the test being run before updating hdf5. Will re-run tests after
checkin.)
Description: "long long" type caused compilation problems on Windows
Solution: Use long_long definition
Platforms tested: heping, Windows will follow
Misc. update:
Description: Finally moved Fortran related function H5IM_get_palette to the
fortran part of the hl source (to the H5IMcc.c file)
Solution:
Platforms tested: sleipnir, mir with g95
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: mismatched "static" declaration for notorious H5IM_find_palette function
caused compilation to fail on sleipnir.
Solution: Remove it for now. Function should go back to Fortran part of HL library.
Platforms tested: sleipnir
Misc. update:
Description:
1.7 daily tests failed in HL library when Fortran was not
enabled; also long long instead of long_long declarations
were used and caused failures on Windows
Solution:
Removed Fortran related functions (except H5IM_find_palette) from
H5IM.c file and put it into fortran/src/H5IMcc.c
Modified appropriate Makefile.am files, regenerated Makefile.in files, updated header files, MANIFEST, etc.
Note: H5IM_find_palette should be also in H5IMcc.c, but
for some unknown to me reason, linking fails if the function is
included in H5IMcc.c. I will really appreciate if some C guru
will look into the code and figure out what is wrong :-) Thanks!
Platforms tested: mir with g95, heping with and without Fortran enabled
Misc. update:
Description:
When compiler flag was used to set the size of Fortran integer
to 8 bytes, library would fail.
Solution:
Cleaned up the code; added detection of Fortran INTEGER type size
and appropriately defined int_f type for C-stubs routines.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.8 32 and 64-bit, AIX 5.1 64-bit parallel
PGI Fortran with -i8 flag on heping
Absoft Fortran with -i8 flag on heping
g95 on mir (Fortran integer is 8 bytes by default that cannot be
changed - compiler bug ;-)
AIX Fortran with -qintsize=8 32 and 64-bit modes on copper
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
check-s and check-p were set as pre-requistics of test. They
would get executed in parallel if parallel make is used. This
could cause problems since serial tests are used to be executed
before parallel tests. It is not known if it is always okay to
run serial and parallel tests in simultantously.
Solution:
Change check-s and check-p as actions of the target test so
that they get executed sequnentially.
Platforms tested:
heping PP.
Added check-s and check-p targets.
Description:
Added check-s and check-p targets to 1.7 branch to match changes to 1.6
branch. Now parallel and serial tests can be run separately.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, copper
bug fix
Description:
the fortran type integer*1 has become not portable.
define the image fortran datatype as "integer" and make special save, read, and palette functions
that use native integer for a memory type and UCHAR as disk type for the image data
added some more tests with new palette definitions
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
Misc. update:
Cray X1 Port
Description:
Porting 1.7 branch to Cray X1. With these changes, HDF5 builds, but
there are some errors in the tests. Working on the errors.
Solution:
Added nv1-cray file to config directory.
Cleaned up some code in hl/c++ that was causing compiler to complain.
Platforms tested:
Cray X1, mir, sleipnir
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
When using memcpy on windows, <string.h> needs to be included.
Solution:
include <string.h>
Platforms tested:
MSVS 6.0 on windows XP, too minor to test with three platforms.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Made High-Level Fortran code use automatically generated headers
rather than a separate hardcoded header.
Solution:
Set hdf5/hl/fortran/src to include hdf5/fortran/src, so that it
will find the copy of H5f90i.h in that directory.
Took #include "H5private.h" out of H5f90i.h (and moved it to files
that included H5f90i.h.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, pommier
Code cleanup
Description:
Clean up various warnings reported by the Windows team.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Minor feature
Description:
If a user configures without C++ or Fortran, 'make' will not recurse into
c++ or fortran directories. However, if the user cd's into these
directories and 'makes,' the Makefiles will attempt to build interfaces
that have not been configured, usually failing.
In an unrelated but minor change, src/H5detect should be compiled with
the -g flag to disable compiler optimizations since it is only
executed once.
Solution:
Make it harder for users to try to compile interfaces that have not been
configured by making c++, fortran, and hl directories not recurse into
their subdirectories unless they have been configured.
Thus, 'make' in /fortran/src will break if Fortran has not been configured,
but 'make' in /fortran will not break.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, copper
Misc. update:
Improvement
Description:
Changed headers in Fortran directories to use H5_FC_FUNC macro
from H5pubconf.h rather than FC_FUNC macro from H5config.h.
This is better practice and works better with the Windows projects.
Platforms tested:
heping, Windows
Description: Removed support for SRB driver
Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure
to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files.
Platforms tested: heping and shanti
Misc. update: ran bin/chkmanifest on heping
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
FAIL was being doubly defined in high-level fortran directory.
Removed inclusion of H5private.h from H5f90i.h in hl/fortran/src.
Platforms tested:
copper
Configuration feature
Description:
Different Fortran compilers mangle function names in different ways
(upper case, lower case, adding underscores). To link between
Fortran and C functions, we need to know what a given function's
name is under a given compiler.
Solution:
Use autoconf's FC_WRAPPERS check to determine the Fortran
naming scheme and define the FC_FUNC_ macro to name our
functions (in H5f90proto.h). Removed references to
our old FNAME macro, as well as flags that indicated whether
function names were upper or lower case.
Platforms tested:
mir, pommier, modi4, copper, more
Bug fix
Description:
On some machines, $RUNSERIAL variable needs to be used to run
tests. Set $RUNTESTS (which is used for non-parallel tests) to
be $RUNSERIAL in configure.am.
Also, since I was updating all Makefiles.in anyway, I updated
commence.am to point to autotools installs in AFS instead of
those on heping.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4, copper
Purpose:
"Bug fix"
Description:
Hardcoded Makefiles to use /bin/sh instead of letting configure
detect shell automatically. This is what v1.6 does, and avoids
problems on janus.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, mir

Misc. update:
Feature - conditional compilation
Description:
SRB file driver and tests are now compiled only when SRB is enabled
(using --with-srb during configure).
Solution:
Added an automake conditional in configure.in, altered Makefiles.am in
src and test directories to depend on that conditional.
This should make a nice example for posterity to add conditionally
compiled sources.
Platforms tested:
heping (only configure change)
Purpose:
Added C++ wrapper for Packet Table API.
Description:
Added macro for high-level C++ library (LIBH5CPP_HL), which changes every
Makefile.in.
Added directories for high-level C++ library (though currently only Packet
Table API is supported).
Added both C++ source and tests.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, mir, modi4
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
when exiting due to a error condition on the goto out instruction there was an attempt to call
H5Dvlen_reclaim without checking if buf was null
Solution:
checket it

Misc. update:
new tests
bug fix
Description:
added new tests for iterartors (on many scales, on group, on deleted scales)
fixed a bug on H5DSiterate, an ID of the referenced scale was not being closed on the cycle
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
Misc. update:
new tests for DS
Description:
add a test that ckecks if a scale being attached itself has scales attached (error)
add a test for the dataset being attached to is a reserved High Level class (image, palette, table)
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Ensured that size of table was initialized (which was causing test
failures on some platforms).
Cleaned up a few more extraneous pieces of code.
Platforms tested:
modi4, mir, heping, copper
Added Packet Table to high-level APIs
Description:
The Packet Table is an API that allows the user to append records
("packets") to a table, and read the back again. It supports
fixed-length records with a defined datatype and variable-length
records. It also supports a "current record" index to track the
user's position in the table.
Solution:
The Packet Table code lives in hl/src, and its tests in hl/test.
Some code is shared between the H5TB table and the H5PT Packet Table
in the form of functions in H5HL_private.c.
Some documentation exists for a previous version of the API. Updated
documentation and C++ wrapper API coming soon.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, eirene, copper, modi4
Automake version upgrade
Description:
Upgraded automake version from 1.6.2 to 1.9.5.
Changed bin/reconfigure script to use automake 1.9.5.
Changed configure.in and Makefiles to use new FCFLAGS and FC variables
instead of FFLAGS and F9X.
Automake and configure should now do the lion's share of the work
supporting Fortran 9X; macros in acsite.m4 are now mostly unused (will
be cleaned later).
Altered how configure handles pmake; now root-level Makefile.in is
processed by bin/reconfigure to have a .MAKEFLAGS target, since
automake no longer allows us to define unused variables.
Configure now always checks for C++ compiler even if it is not
used, since automake thinks this is the Right Thing To Do and
will break otherwise.
Platforms tested:
Sol, copper, heping, mir, sleipnir, eirene, pommier, kelgia, modi4.
Bug fix
Description:
The GASS VFL driver header file was bringing in the <string.h> header file,
which several other source code modules needed also, but weren't including
explicitly themselves.
Solution:
Add includes for <string.h> to files which actually need them.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/C++ as CC
Configuration not tested by h5committest...
