Possible Bug Fix
Description:
There seems to be a problem with the h5cc script picking up old
header files. This may have something to do with the CPPFLAGS macro
being set to some nefarious thing and the compiler looking in those
directories for the header files instead of the one where HDF5 is
actually installed.
Solution:
Put the -I$includedir first.
Platforms tested:
None...This is really triggered by the nightly tests. I'm kind of
hoping that this will fix things...
Bug fix
Description:
Old setup put $(srcdir)/h5redeploy in the install list but this
same list is used for clean too, thus the file is removed from
source. That is bad.
Solution:
Set it to use a cp to do it. Need to change the source version
name to something else because for one, it is confusing to use
the same name. For another, if the build is done in place (i.e.,
not using --srcdir), the source file is removed, again.
So, renamed it with the .in suffix. Who knows, it may take
more processing than just cp when more features are added to it.
Platforms tested:
Eirene
Bug Fix
Description:
Some -I paths weren't included in the h5cc script. That would cause
the compiler to fail if it was trying to find gass header files or
the like.
Solution:
Added the CPPFLAGS macro to the h5cc.in file so that it'll be there
when it's generated. This will also include some -D options which we
compiled the library with, like the LFS flags on Linux.
Also changed the configure* files so that it will "chmod" the created
h5cc file to 755 (executable) since that wasn't happening all the
time...
Platforms tested:
Linux
Bug Fix
Description:
The library path was relying upon the "exec_prefix" variable.
However, we weren't including that into the h5cc script.
Solution:
Added it.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Removing the DPSS (gridstorage) driver source code.
Description:
The DPSS (using Grid-Storage) driver is retired.
Removed the configure option with-gridstorage from configure.in.
Cvs remove the following files
./src/H5FDdpss.c
./src/H5FDdpss.h
./test/dpss_read.c
./test/dpss_write.c
Regenerated Dependencies files (some had to be hand-edited since
'make depend' did not cover them.)
Removed reference to DPSS Virtual file driver from H5F.c.
Platforms tested:
modi4 (Parallel; -with-gass=...), eirene, arabica (fortran, cxx).
Code cleanup (sorta)
Description:
When the first versions of the HDF5 library were designed, I remembered
vividly the difficulties of porting code from a 32-bit platform to a 16-bit
platform and asked that people use intn & uintn instead of int & unsigned
int, respectively. However, in hindsight, this was overkill and
unnecessary since we weren't going to be porting the HDF5 library to
16-bit architectures.
Currently, the extra uintn & intn typedefs are causing problems for users
who'd like to include both the HDF5 and HDF4 header files in one source
module (like Kent's h4toh5 library).
Solution:
Changed the uintn & intn's to unsigned and int's respectively.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The way we were generating Dependencies and .depend files was broken.
If the $srcdir or other macros began with a ".", then it would match
anything and cause problems since it would then overwrite the
beginning of the header file's path.
Solution:
Wrote a Perl script which can handle this type of weirdness better.
It's only used when the environment is a GNU one with a GCC
compiler...

Linux
Bug Fix, Code Cleanup, Code Optimization, etc.
Description:
Fold in the hyperslab speedups, clean up compile warnings and change a
few things from using 'unsigned' or 'hsize_t' to use 'size_t' instead.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.3 (hawkwind), Solaris 2.7 (arabica), Irix64 6.5 (modi4)
Update
Description:
Replaced
#include <hdf5_file.h>
with
#include "hdf5_file.h"
so that gcc can pick up our files more easily without picking up
system header files (which we don't care about being in the
dependencies list).
Platforms tested:
Linux
Code Movement
Description:
Moved the tools into their own separate directories (except for these
small tools which are REALLY small, not tested, or documented,
really...They just get put into the misc/ directory).
Platforms tested:
Linux and Kelgia
