----------------------
./RELEASE
Added Library functions that I missed the first time.
./html/Datasets.html
Added an example for Elena's question about how to read a
single member of a compound data type so it becomes an array
of that member in memory.
./src/H5Pprivate.h
Fixed the prototype for H5P_get_hyperslab() to match the
definition.
./src/H5Psimp.c
Oops, added the kludge back in for the offset argument, which
is still an `intn' instead of a `size_t'.
./src/H5.c
./src/H5public.h
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tpublic.h
Changed H5init() to H5open() and added an H5close() to fit our
create/open/close paradigm. The H5open() happens
automatically on the first call to the HDF5 library. The
H5close() happens automatically on exit() (unless the app
turns off that feature). H5close() closes all datasets and
files and releases all resources used by the library.
./test/dsets.c
Added calls to H5open() and H5close() to test them.
./test/dtypes.c
Removed call to H5init() since we no longer need it there.
./src/H5Fstdio.c
Changed the PABLO_MASK to the right value. Thanks Kim.
----------------------
./INSTALL
./INSTALL_MAINT
./README
Updated installation instructions for hdf-5.0.0a.
./RELEASE
Updated release notes. Needs more work.
./bin/release
The tarballs include the name of the root directory like
hdf-5.0.0a so it doesn't have to be explicitly created when
the files are extracted.
----------------------
./MANIFEST
Added new files.
./bin/Makefile.dist [NEW]
This file becomes the default top-level Makefile which invokes
configure with no arguments and then re-runs make. It's for
those people that don't read the INSTALL file.
./bin/release [NEW]
Build HDF release tarballs. Arguments are a list of tarball
types and are: tar, compress, gzip, or bzip2. The default is
gzip. If the only argument is `all' then all types of tarballs
are created. The results are put in the `releases' directory.
Make sure you keep MANIFEST up to date. This program requires
perl-5.003 or better.
./src/H5AC.c
Fixed a printf format.
Perl script that looks for Posix functions that haven't been
protected by adding `HD' to the beginning of the name. It
takes a list of .c file names as arguments.
./bin/errors NEW
A filter that takes a function prologue and function body as
standard input and updates the error list in the prologue
based on the function body. You must add the `ERRORS' or
`Errors:' field to the prologue before you pass it through
this filter or else the errors come out as a separate
comment. The errors field must be terminated with a blank
line in the prologue so we know where the end is.
I may enhance this in the future to take an entire file as
standard input instead of individual functions.
./bin/config.sub NEW
Shell scripts for guessing the CPU, vendor name, and operating
system. Used by configure.
./bin/install-sh NEW
A portable BSD-compatible install script which is used if a
BSD-compatible `install' can't be found.
