Code cleanup
Description:
Tweaked internal error handling macros to reduce the size of the library's
object code by about 10-20%.
Also cleaned up some compiler warnings...
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (sleipnir)
Backward Compatibility Fix
Description:
One of H5P[gs]et_cache's parameters changed between v1.4 and the development
branch.
Solution:
Added v1.4 compat stuff around H5P[gs]et_cache implementation and testing
to allow v1.4.x users to continue to use their source code without
modification.
These changes are for everything except the FORTRAN wrappers - I spoke with
Elena and she will make the FORTRAN wrapper changes.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
Code cleanup for better compatibility with C++ compilers
Description:
C++ compilers are choking on our C code, for various reasons:
we used our UNUSED macro incorrectly when referring to pointer types
we used various C++ keywords as variables, etc.
we incremented enum's with the ++ operator.
Solution:
Changed variables, etc.to avoid C++ keywords (new, class, typename, typeid,
template)
Fixed usage of UNUSED macro from this:
char UNUSED *c
to this:
char * UNUSED c
Switched the enums from x++ to x=x+1
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
New feature
Description:
Started this directory for performance measurement programs.
The programs here got compiled but not automatically run (just
like the examples direcotry.)
The programs have existed but now gathered to this one directory.
iopipe.c, chunk.c and overhead.c were from test. perf.c and mpi-perf.c
were from testpar.
Platforms tested:
eirene (serial and parallel).
overhead failed during run due to some property error. This is probably
due to the recent change of properties code.
perf and mpi-perf do not compile correctly for Parallel mode.
Checking them to make them available to others.
