Update
Description:
GPFS should only be checked for if the --enable-gpfs flag is used.
Otherwise, it shouldn't.
Platforms tested:
Linux (Configure only fix so only needed to test it to make sure the
configure does the right thing and that the build won't
break. I need to test it on a machine that has GPFS to make
sure it works there...)
Code Cleanup
Description:
Warning messages were being produced by the "make" program because
the "docdir" was being specified twice as a target in the generated
Makefiles. This is because the "EXAMPLESDIR" was also defined as
"docdir".
Solution:
Made "EXAMPLESDIR" unique for C, Fortran, and C++ in the commence.in
file and removed EXAMPLESDIR from the Makefile.ins
Platforms tested:
Dangermouse (only affects make system, not code).
Misc. update:
Purpose: Maintenance
Description: I changed release version to 1.5.54.
Email about tetsing of 1.5.53 will be send after this checkins.
Solution: used bin/h5vers -s to change the version number
Platforms tested: Done on arabica
Misc. update:
Purpose: Fortran updtae
Description: Created new functions h5pset(get)_fapl_mpiposix_f
Platforms tested: Compilation was tested with semi-manual h5committest.
(I ahd to built and test manullay on modi4 parallel because
of some weird failure of h5committest on modi4)
There are no tests yet for those functions. Kent was
going to use them in the MEAD project to test
the performance.
Misc. update:
Purpose: Maintenance for T3E
Description: Cray updated T3E to run unicosmk2.0.6.X
Configuration failed.
Solution: Created new unicosmk2.0.6.X files in the config and fortran/config
directories and added them to MANIFEST. I had to disable warning
# 412 for fortran compilation. The warning would prevent creation
of executable programs.
Platforms tested: Cray T3E
Misc. update:
Fix
Description:
Fortran's configure was trying to read the "README.txt" file from the
"$srcdir", where it won't be.
Solution:
Changed it to look in "$srcdir/.." for the "README.txt" file.
Platforms tested:
Verbena. Configure only, so no need for full tests.
Misc. update:
Purpose: Maintenance/code cleanup/fight with Windows Fortran DLLs
Description: While strugling with Fortran DLLs on Windows I noticed
some missing export definitions that are necessary
for exporting correctly data and functions.
Solution: Added missing definitions
Platforms tested: h5committested; Windows with MSVC++ and Visual Fortran
on Windows. Fortran DLLs partially work, only 2 tests
fail, but failure doesn't make any sense. To make
things worse, most of the C DLL tests start to fail when
Fortran is built. I am still investigating...
Misc. update:
Purpose: Windows maintenance and code cleanup
Description: There were a lot of places in the source code where varibale
was declared but never used.
Solution: Cleaned the source code to avoid warnings on Windows adn Unix
platforms.
Platforms tested: arabica, modi4, Windows
Probably my environment is wrong on Linux, cannot
compile at all when fortran is enabled
If daily tests fails tomorrow, this will be my fault
but I want to go home now :-)
Misc. update:
Improvment
Description:
No default setting of fortran compiler when --enable-parallel is
used.
Solution:
Changed it to use mpxlf_r as the default parallel fortran compiler.
This is consistent with the default C compilers.
Platforms tested:
Did not h5committested because the changes were made offsite.
Tested in LLNL SP BLUE, both serial and parallel modes.
(There is a compiling error in src but the configure result are
verified.)
Misc. update:
Update MANIFEST if you add or remove any file.
Update release_docs/RELEASE for bug fixes, new features, etc.
Update applicable document files too.
bug fix
Description:
The default of CC used to be gcc which is not compatible with the
default fortran compiler of xlf.
Solution:
Copied the CC default setting from the C-API level.
Platforms tested:
Run test in Copper since this is a purely AIX change.
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
In parallel mode, the MPI libraries were being added to the LDFLAGS
variable instead of the LIBS variable. This was playing havoc with
the h5fc script (the order you specify libraries is important to some
compilers).
Solution:
The AC_CHECK_FLIB macro was placing these libraries into the LDFLAGS
instead of LIBS, which is where they should have gone. Replaced
LDFLAGS with LIBS in that case.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (Parallel & Fortran)
Arabica (Fortran)
Verbena (Fortran, no C++ since it's not affected)
Ran "make check-install" after installation...
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
On Kelgia, building of the Fortran stuff would fail because of a bad
commandline. A "" was being put into it.
Solution:
I was stupid and put quotes around a variable in the commence.in file
when I shouldn't have. Removed those quotes.
Platforms tested:
Kelgia (Fortran)
Verbena (Fortran, no C++ since Fortran only)
Arabica (Fortran)
Modi4 (Fortran & Parallel)
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
When going to compile on a platform (like HP-UX) which doesn't have
libz.a in it's path, the script would fail. The reason was that the
LDFLAGS variable which holds the directories to these libraries was
last in the compile line. So the compiler couldn't find the library
Solution:
Put the LDFLAGS variable before the linker variables.
Platforms tested:
Kelgia (Fortran)
Verbena (Fortran, no C++ since only Fortran affected)
Arabica (Fortran)
Modi4 (Fortran & Parallel)
Also ran "make check-install"
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
H5FC was failing on Copper (IBM P690). The reason: the xlf compiler
needs files to end in .f in stead of .f90. If you have .f90 files,
you need the "-qsuffix=f=f90" flag defined. This was defined for
compiling things via the "-c" option (to object files) but not for
straight compilation of a file.
I also noticed that the directory modules were being extracted from
was "." and "../src". H5FC would find these alright when doing a
"make check-install" but if Suzie User were to try this, it might
fail for her. Suzie would have to specify explicitly where to grab
these files.
Solution:
The solution to the problem was a bit more involved. I added a new
variable called "F9XSUFFIXFLAG" which is set to this value if the
machine needs it.
Added new variable called "FSEARCH_DIRS" which can be set to the
directories to find modules during compilation. The H5FC script knows
where to find the correct modules (it's in the lib/ directory), so it
uses the F9XMODFLAG to find them and not the FSEARCH_DIRS flag.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (Fortran & Parallel)
Verbena (Fortran) C++ not needed since this is Fortran-only fix
Arabica (Fortran)
Copper (Fortran)
Ran "make install" and "make check-install" afterwards...
Misc. update:
Update
Description:
Ran "autoheader" to gather some of the added #defines that were
included in the configure.in file over the months...
Platforms tested:
Arabica & Baldric (Fortran)
Modi4 (Parallel & Fortran)
Verbena (C++ & Fortran)
All with --enable-stream-vfd and doing a "make check-install".
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
The h5fc script couldn't find the correct libraries needed when it
was used on Solaris and the --enable-stream-vfd was enabled.
Solution:
Added checks for the -lnsl and -lsocket libraries if we're on Solaris
or HP-UX.
Platforms tested:
Arabica & Baldric (Fortran)
Modi4 (Parallel & Fortran)
Verbena (C++ & Fortran)
All with --enable-stream-vfd and doing a "make check-install".
Misc. update:
Bug fix and feature
Description:
The patch to Makefile.in failed if an empty directory of fortran/examples
was left behind by a previous build.
Solution:
Attempted to put it in config/conclude.in just became a mess since
it is hard to predict when we will include examples in the subdirs
or not.
Borrow the structure of install-examples and do some handcode per
interface. The Makefile.in of each interface (C, Fortran, C++)
controls everything. Not very systematic but pretty clean for this
case.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Also tested in modi4 with various combinations of fortran, c++
enabled.
Misc. update:
Purpose: Added copyright statement; cleaned code and fixed bugs for
Windows and Cray T90IEEE
Description: Windows and Cray ports exposed few typos in the source code
that caused tests to fail
Solution: Added copyright statement and clean the code.
Platforms tested: CRAY T90IEEE, arabica, modi4 with parallel, Windows 2000
Only static tests (both debug and release) passed on Windows.
DLLs have multiple problems ;-)
Misc. update:
Purpose: Added copyright statement; cleaned code and fixed bugs for
Windows and Cray T90IEEE
Description: Fortran files did not have copyright statement; VL types
did not work on T90IEEE since I never brought the correct code
from 1.4 branch; there were compilation warnings on Windows;
some character parameters were not passed correctly to C stubs
causing tests to fail on Windows.
Solution: Added copyright statement and clean the code.
Platforms tested: CRAY T90IEEE, arabica, modi4 with parallel, Windows 2000
Only static tests (both debug and release) passed on Windows.
DLLs have multiple problems ;-)
Misc. update:
Purpose: Catching up with 1.4 branch
Description: 1.5 didn't have unicos10.0.X configuration files
for both C and fortran.
Solution: Added the files
Platforms tested: CRAY T90IEEE
Misc. update:
Purpose: Catching up with C library
Description: I added tests for new functions
h5pset_szip_f
h5pget_filter_by_id_f
h5pall_filters_avail_f
I am not sure how to test h5pmodify_filter_f.
Solution:
Platforms tested: arabica (with and without SZIP Library),
modi4 (with SZIP and parallel)
burrwhite (with SZIP and PGI C and Fortran compilers)
Misc. update:
Purpose: Catching up with C library
Description: I added four new functions
h5pset_szip_f
h5pget_filter_by_id_f
h5pmodify_filetr_f
h5pall_filters_avail_f
Solution:
Platforms tested: arabica (with and without SZIP Library),
modi4 (with SZIP and parallel)
burrwhite (with SZIP and PGI C and Fortran compilers)
Misc. update:
Fix
Description:
There are some Fortran compilers which don't have a module flag.
Solution:
If they don't have one, then don't specify it on the line. Also added
the LDFLAGS to the compile line so that we pick up the proper
libraries and their directories.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (Parallel & Fortran)
Burrwhite (Fortran & C++)
Baldric (Fortran), but make check didn't work because of "libucb.so"
error that I can't fix...)
Misc. update:
Update
Description:
Updated so that the example programs are built with the new h5fc
script after it's installed. (So you need to cd into the examples/
directory and type "make check" or similar. This is how it is in the
C part).
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (Parallel & Fortran)
Burrwhite (Fortran & C++)
Baldric (Fortran), but make check didn't work because of "libucb.so"
error that I can't fix...)
Misc. update:
Update
Description:
Added check for the SZlib option. The SZlib stuff needs to propagate
down to the h5fc script.
Also, removed "examples" from some of the Makefile's rules so that
it's the same as in the C library.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (Parallel & Fortran)
Burrwhite (Fortran & C++)
Baldric (Fortran), but make check didn't work because of "libucb.so"
error that I can't fix...)
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
The way to detect modules wasn't in there.
Solution:
Added the 'F9XMODFLAG' variable and have it pointing to the
appropriate place.
Platforms tested:
Arabica. Will test on other platforms one at a time. This won't
affect other parts of the system...
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
Some of the macros in the script weren't being updated by configure
correctly. Also, the FFLAGS needed to be used during compilation.
Solution:
Put the correct macros in there. Added FFLAGS.
Platforms tested:
Arabica. Only testing it on one platform for now since this is a
script change and needs to be tested on one machine first before
further testing...
Misc. update:
Addition
Description:
Added "h5fc" utility. This is the same as the "h5cc" utility but for
Fortran. It only handles static libraries since that's the only
library we build for Fortran.
Note! I've tested the code on the normal platforms but I haven't
tested the utility itself.
Platforms tested:
Arabica (Fortran)
Modi4 (Fortran & Parallel)
Burrwhite (Fortran & C++
Misc. update:
Update
Description:
The "--enable-parallel=TYPE" option was revamped but the help string
wasn't modified.
Solution:
Modified it to print out just "--enable-parallel" because we no
longer support the "=TYPE" option.
Platforms tested:
arabica (Fortran)
Modi4 (Parallel & Fortran)
Burrwhite (Fortran & C++)
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
The macro MAX defined here is very commonly defined, e.g., AIX systems.
The compiler did not like duplicated macro defines.
Solution:
H5_MAX is already defined in H5f90.h and used in other code.
Remove MAX and change its use to H5_MAX.
Platforms tested:
"h5committested", plus tested at LLNL Blue.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Adjusted parameters for fortran wrappers of H5Pset_shuffle to match the
changes to the C API function.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) w/szip
Linux 2.4 (sleipnir) w/szip
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/FORTRAN
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/szip, FORTRAN & parallel
Misc. update:
Purpose: Maintenance
Description: New fortran APIs h5pset_fapl_multi and h5pget_fapl_multi have been
added along with the new tests.
Solution:
Platforms tested: burrwhite with PGI compilers, arabica and modi4 with
--enable-parallel
Misc. update:
Purpose: Maintenance
Description: New fortran APIs h5pset_fapl_multi and h5pget_fapl_multi have been
added
Solution:
Platforms tested: burrwhite with PGI compilers, arabica and modi4 with
--enable-parallel
Misc. update:
Feature (bug fix)
Description:
Added a new configure file specifically for the IA64 platform
in which ecc and efc are the default compilers.
Also added all the Fortran special setup in the fortran version
Platforms tested:
no h5committest since this is a IA64 platform stuff.
Tested in Titan.
Misc. update:
MANIFEST Updated.
Purpose: Catching up with the C library
Description: Added tests for the follwoing new fortran functions
h5iget_name_f
h5tis_variavle_str_f
h5zunregister_f
h5zfilter_avail_f
h5pset_shuffle_f
h5pset_fletcher32
h5pset_edc_check_f
h5pget_edc_check_f
h5dfill_f
Solution:
Platforms tested: arabica(C and F90), burrwhite (pgcc and pgf90), modi4 (F90 and parallel)
Misc. update:
Purpose: Catching up with the C library
Description: Added the follwoing new fortran functions
h5iget_name_f

Misc. update:
Purpose: Catching up with the C library
Description: Added file to provide PGI Fortran support
Solution:
Platforms tested: arabica(C and F90), burrwhite (pgcc and pgf90), modi4 (F90 and parallel)
Misc. update:
Purpose: Catching up with the C library
Description: Enabled checking for shuffle, deflate and checksum filters for Fortran
Solution:
Platforms tested: arabica(C and F90), burrwhite (pgcc and pgf90), modi4 (F90 and parallel)
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Maintenance
Description:
* Added support for generic properties.
* Added support for time allocation properties.
* Added support for variable length datatypes (only datatypes based
on INTEGER, REAL and CHARACTER Fortran types are supported).
* added some missing functions
Solution:
I am checking in new Fortran APIs and their man pages to support
1.5 features listed above.
Not all APIs have tests yet. APIs were written in Fall 2002, and I am afraid
that I will loose the code or totally forget what I did if I wait longer. ;-)
Platforms tested:
arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran), modi4 (parallel, fortran)
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Enumeration datatype was broken in Fortran
Solution:
Fixed C wrapper functions to pass variables correctly from
Fortran to C layer.
Platforms tested:
modi4, arabica, eirene
Update
Description:
Updated the configure scripts. Fortran and C++ didn't have proper
checks for Linux LFS support. Also needed to remove the "-g" flag
from the compile line if --enable-production is set. For that, I took
how it's being done in HDF5 Lite...
Platforms tested:
Linux
fortran/config/powerpc-ibm-aix5.x
To cover AIX 5.x.
Removed Files:
fortran/config/powerpc-ibm-aix4.2.1.0
fortran/config/powerpc-ibm-aix4.3.2.0
These files are outdated and have been replaced by powerpc-ibm-aix4.x.
Modified Files:
MANIFEST
Update it.
Platforms tested:
Only on LLNL blue. LLNL SP are the only machines that use
these files and that I have access.
Improvement
Description:
The fortran test code did not exit with error like C programs do.
Without the appropriate exit code, make or shell could not tell the
fortran test program has encountered errors. So, make continues on
even when some fortran tests have failed.
Solution:
Consultant advised to use "CALL exit(code)" to simulate what C programs
do. Though this is not standard Fortran, he has not seen it failed to
work in most fortran compilers thought some of them, like intel compiler,
may need to link in an extra library.
Platforms tested:
Tested on burrwhite (linux 2.4), eirene (linux 2.2), sol (Solaris 8, serial
and mpich parallel), modi4.
Did not use the standard commit test since this is a purely fortran fix.
Purpose:
Fortran port to IA64
Description:
I brought back changes from 1.4 branch to support IA64 system.
Platforms tested:
IA64 (titan), Solaris 2.7 (arabica), Linux 2.2 (eirene) and IRIX64-6.5 (modi4)
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
There was a typo in the h5dont_exit_c function name that caused compilation
problems on Windows
Solution:
Fixed typo
Platforms tested:
Kent is going to retest it on Windows.
Purpose:
Make Intel (and other) C and F90 compilers happy
Description:
There were several warnings about missing function prototypes and
wrongly defined string in the test program.
Solution:
Fix the code to include proper header files and function prototypes.
Fix the string.
Platforms tested:
Platinum (IA32) and arabica (Solaris 2.7)
Purpose:
Added missing fortran functions h5set(get)_buffer_f.
Also added docs and tests for them.
Solution:
Currently functions do not accept conversion and background buffers.
This corresponds to H5set(get)_buffer call with buffer pointers
set to NULL. If there is a demand, I can overload the functions
to have new parameters and go through all trouble creating functions
for all supported datatypes.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7, Linux 2.2., IRIX64-6.5
Purpose:
Added new F90 APIs
Description:
I added new F90 APIs, tests, and documentation for the following
functions:
h5fget_obj_count_f h5pequal_f h5tget_member_index_f
h5fget_obj_ids_f h5pget_fclose_degree_f
h5pset_fclose_degree_f
Documentation for exisiting functions was missing:
h5freopen_f, h5fflush_f, h5fmount_f, h5unmount_f, h5fget_create_plist_f,
h5fget_access_plist_f.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7, Linux 2.2 and IRIX64-6.5
Purpose:
Added new fortran functions
Description:
Source code, tests and documentation for h5glink2_f and h5gmove2_f
functions were added. I also added missing man page for h5glink_f
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7, IRIX64-6.5 and Liniux 2.2
Purpose:
Added missing fortran functions.
Description:
Four Library Fortran API functions have been added:
h5get_libversion_f, h5_check_version_f, h5garbage_collect_f and
h5dont_atexit_f. Only first two functions were tested.
Documentation file and RELEASE.txt were updated.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7, IRIX64-6.5 and Linux 2.2
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Search path for include files to build h5test_fortran.a did not have
hdf5_builddir and hdf5_srcdir directories. Compilation failed when
scrdir configure flag was used.
Solution:
Modified Makefile.in to include the directories into the search path.
Platforms tested:
modi4 with srcdir on AFS and build dir in $SCR using --enable-parallel
--enable-fortran flags.
Purpose:
Bug fix, code improvement
Description:
Fortran tests didn't cleanup created files. Also HDF5_PREFIX and
HDF5_PARAPREFIX were not used to specify location of the files.
There was a redundant file in the testpar directory that contained
an error reporting function used by both serial and parallel tests.
Solution:
Created library h5test_fortran.a that contains functions used by the
serial and parallel tests. It includes Fortran and C functions that
may be called from Fortran programs to report errors, to modify
file names and to cleanup files after run. Modified test code to
use new functions.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.2 (eirene) serial
IRIX64 (modi4) parallel with HDF5_PREFIX and HDF5_PARAPREFIX set to $SCR
Solris 2.7 with mpich 1.2.4 with HDF5_PARAPREFIX set to /tmp/epourmal
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
_DLL_ macro was not replaced by H5_DLL macro in the Fortran stabs
header file when it was replaced in the C header files.
Solution:
Replace it.
Platforms tested:
Tested on Solairs 2.7 with --enable-fortran --enable-cxx flags.
Bug Fix
Description:
Sometimes, we needed to pick up a header file in the current build
directory.
Solution:
Added a test to see if the compiler can handle the "-I." option so
that it will get that header file.
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Bug Fix
Description:
We were getting the wrong MPIRUN program when you used the full
pathname. The "case" statement was checking the "F9X" macro, but it
really only needed the basename of the F9X macro.
Solution:
Put wildcard matching in so that it would find the appropriate
basename.
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Porting to AIX 5.x
Description:
These have been tested out in v1.4. Folding them in here.
aclocal.m4:
Snow's names were not included in the special hack.
Added its names in.
Removed the trailing * in pacific.llnl.gov too.
configure.in:
fortran/configure.in:
Added a case to group all AIX 5.* versions as aix5.x. This allows
them to share one common config/*aix5.x file.
configure:
fortran/configure:
Derived from configure.in (done in eirene).
config/powerpc-ibm-aix4.x:
Added a comment explaining why not to cache sizeof size_t and off_t
fortran/config/powerpc-ibm-aix4.x:
Turned of cache of sizeof size_t and off_t because they are depedent
on compiler options.
config/powerpc-ibm-aix5.x:
fortran/config/powerpc-ibm-aix5.x:
New config file for AIX 5.X
Platforms tests:
LLNL Blue, Frost, Snow, both serial and parallel.
Bug Fix
Description:
Was nulling out the RUNPARALLEL and other macros which shouldn't be
nulled out.
Solution:
Removed the code which does the nulling out of those macros.
Purpose:
Code clean up.
Description:
Many F90 compilers were not happy about character*(*) declarations.
Solution:
Used F90 character(len=*) declarations.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 and Linux 2.4
Code cleanup
Description:
While working on the "External test" failure I restructured and
cleaned up some C stub code.
Platforms tested:
dangermouse (Linux 2.4)
Bug Fix
Description:
On Linux 2.4 kernel, we need to check for Linux LFS support. There
was a failure in the Fortran code when we tried to pass a 4 byte off_t
variable to a function which expected an 8 byte off_t. This is due to
there being no check for the LFS support in the Fortran code.
Solution:
Added the check for Linux LFS support.
Platforms tested:
Elena will test on Linux platform...
Bug Fix
Description:
Put quotes around some variables so that the shell script doesn't
complain to us about "too many arguements" for a test.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Bug#670 fix
Description:
dims parameter to the h5dwrite_f, h5dread_f, h5awrite_f and h5aread_f
subroutines was declared as INTEGER array of size 7 (max number of dimensions
in Fortran). Users could not use the same buffer dims as an argument to
the h5screate_simple_f subroutine since it should be an array of size = RANK
and type INTEGER(HSIZE_T).
Solution:
Overload subroutines with dims parameter to be assumed size array of
INTEGER(HSIZE_T) type for backward compatibility.
Subroutine with the INTEGER dims argument should be depricated in 1.6 release
Platforms tested:
Windows, Solaris2.7, IRIX64-6.5
Update
Description:
Changed so that the Fortran and C++ configures are named "HDF5
Fortran" and "HDF5 C++" resp. instead of just "HDF5.
Solution:
Add an extra parameter to the subroutine which generates the new
configure.in files.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Maintenance
Description:
Changed code to use H5_HAVE_MPI_MULTI_LANG_* definitions and
H5pubconf_fortran.h include file.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Let's daily tests do this work. I have to leave now.
Update
Description:
Added a conversion of the H5config_fortran.h file to
H5pubconf_fortran.h so as to keep with the HDF5 format of using H5_
as a prefix for HAVE_* macros.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Update
Description:
Updated the h5vers script to automatically update the configure.in
files so that they reflect the correct version in the AC_INIT line.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
For some unknown to myself reason I used 32-bit integer for INTEGER(HSIZE_T)
on Solaris platforms when 64-bit integers are available for both C and Fortran.
Solution:
Use long long type to describe h(s)size_t_f types
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 ans 2.6
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
For some unknown to myself reason I used 32-bit integer for INTEGER(HSIZE_T)
on Solaris platforms when 64-bit integers are available for both C and Fortran.
Solution:
Use the proper KIND argument to define INTEGER(HSIZE_T)
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 ans 2.6
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Different MPI implementations use different ways to
pass MPI objects between C and Fortran layers. MPI-2 defines
a standard set of MPI_*_c2f(f2c) functions for this purpose.
Unfortunately it is not implemented everywhere and makes
code non-portable between different parallel platforms.
Solution:
Always use MPI_*c2f(f2c) functions in our code. Configure
finds out if those functions are available. If not, then we define
macros to immulate those functions.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64-6.5 (modi4) and SP3 (seaborg.nersc.gov). On those platforms
functions do not exist and we use macros. Bill will test on
HPUX System V (SDSC machine) to check if this works when functions
are defined. Preliminary testing showed that it worked.
Fix
Description:
When doing a TRY_LINK, the compiler complained about lack of
parameters being passed to the function.
Solution:
Added the parameter it wants...
Update
Description:
Updated the way we used the AC_INIT macros so that it's current to
the new standard way and not deprecated anymore.
Also, added a test for some functions during parallel Fortran
configure. This required the creation of an H5config_fortran.h file
so that we can test for these...
Platforms tested:
Elena is going to test the changes to the fortran after she checks in
her other code. I will test on SDSC machines after getting her code.
The other changes were tested on Linux.
Feature Update
Description:
Modified the AC_OUTPUT macro to coincide with the now-standard way of
doing things. I.e., you put all of the files you want to generate
into the AC_CONFIG_FILES macro and invode AC_OUTPUT with no
parameters.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Autotools Update
Description:
I've updated autoconf, automake, and libtool to the latest/greatest
versions; 2.53, 1.6, and 1.4.2 resp.
Many changes come with the new versions:
- ltconfig is no longer used
- acconfig.h is no longer used (#define values are declared with
the macro)
- regeneration of all of the aclocal.m4, configure, and
H5config.h.in files.
- new config.{guess,sub} files
- new ltmain.sh file
Platforms tested:
AIX (blue), and Linux
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
Parallel Fortran wasn't working on Modi4. The tests for parallel
MPI Fortran were failing to find MPI files.
Solution:
Changed the AC_TRY_FLINK() macro so that libraries are included
at the end of the link line so that unresolved symbols can be
found...
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
Hrm...When I was restoring the LDFLAGS variable after a failure, I
fergot to put a $ on the saved_LDFLAGS variable during the
assignment.
DOH!
Solution:
Added the $.
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Bug Fix
Description:
I wasn't testing if the Fortran compiler could actually do the MPI
compilation tests.
Solution:
Changed the configure script so that it uses Fortran 90 to test the
MPI compilation stuff instead of the MPI C compiler...
Platforms tested:
AIX and Linux
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The new way of detecting LibZ (just specifying the directory where
include/ and lib/ are) wasn't propagated down to the Fortran
directory.
Solution:
Added that code...
Platforms tested:
AIX and Linux
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
I borrowed function HDpackFstring from the HDF4 Library and
left name unchanged. It causes linking problems for Fortran users
that use both HDF4 and HDF5 Libraries in their applications.
Solution:
Changed the name to be HD5packFstring
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7
Bug Fix
Description:
The make uninstall-examples wasn't working if fortran or C++ was
built.
Solution:
Added uninstall-examples to the Makefile.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Maintenance
Description:
Several compiler's warnings caused Hitachi SR8000
F90 and C compilers to fail.
Solution:
Fixed the code to eliminate warnings.
Platforms tested:
O2K (modi4) and Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
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).
Bug fix.
Description:
Fix fortran stub for H5P[gs]et_hyper_cache.
Solution:
Made the fortran subs not execute any function calls into the library,
unless v1.4 compatibility is turned on.
Elena will be following this up with a real fix.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Somehow I forgot to add DEC compiler directives to the H5Eff.f90
file. Linking failed on OSF 5.1
Solution:
Added necessary compiler directives for name translations.
Platforms tested:
Not tested yet but without this change it would fail.
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Error messages were printed to the file and standard output regardless
of the parameters passed to the h5eprint_f function. h5eprintc function
did not close the file with the error output. Fixed.
Platforms tested:
arabica and eirene
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
On NERSC SP3 configure failed while trying to figure out
how to print long long.
Solution:
Added the following line
hdf5_cv_printf_ll=${hdf5_cv_printf_ll='ll'}
Platforms tested:
Not tested yet.
Kludge
Description:
Since we're only about halfway through converting the internal use of
property lists from the "old way" to the generic property lists, we turned
off snapshots to avoid exposing lots of API changes to users, until the
APIs settled down.
Getting the snapshots rolling again seems to have become a priority, so
some changes are going to have to be made now that were going to be
postponed until we were completely finished with the conversion. This
requires that the old API functions be able to deal with both the old
and new property lists smoothly.
Solution:
Kludge together the property list code so that they can transparently handle
dealing with both the old and new property lists
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
Purpose:
Feature Add
Description:
Added "install-example" and "install-all" to the Makefile system.
The behaviour of the "make install*" options:
make install - Installs binaries, libraries, include
files, and example programs.
make install-examples - Installs only the example programs.
The directories are:
${prefix}/doc/hdf5/examples/{c,c++,fortran}
make install-all - Install the binaries, libraries, include
files, example programs, and
documentation. The whole kit-n'-caboodle.
make uninstall-examples - Get rid of those example files (but not
the ${prefix}/doc/hdf5/examples/...
directories)
There's a new bin/ program which helps create directories which are
deeply nested called "mkdirs". It's a simple shell script.
Platforms tested:
Linux
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)
More code cleanups
Description:
Wrap up the code cleanups for changing the dataset transfer property lists
over to using the generic property list code.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
Code cleanups, mostly..
Description:
Work on pacifying the SGI compiler to get the generic properties working
correctly with --enable-parallel and --enable-fortran. It's not quite
fixed yet, but I need to head home and these patches help... :-/
Platforms tested:
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
Bug fix.
Description:
Left an extra '}' in when I removed the v1.2.x compat stuff.
Solution:
Took the '}' out... :-)
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
Feature shift
Description:
Take out the v1.2.x compatibility stubs and put in the hooks for v1.4.x
compatibility when needed.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.3 (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...
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Bug fix (bug#625)
Description:
Character buffers were not copied and freed properly. That caused segmentation fault on Linux (Debian 2.2, a glibc2.1.3-based distro and gcc 2.95.2 and NAGWare Fortran 95 compiler Release 4.0a(392). Also many compilers screamed about this piece of code.
Solution:
Asked Quincey to fix the code.
Platforms tested:
Linux (eirene)
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
the ptesthdf5_fortran.f90 program was dependent upon the THDF5
module. But before the ptesthdf5_fortran.lo file is build, the THDF5
module needs to be built.
Solution:
Put that dependency into the Makefile.
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
*sigh* The change I made yesterday didn't work correctly. The shell
command interpretted the line as if it were command flags.
Solution:
Removed the "()"s from around the macro name so that they can be
expanded correctly.
Platforms tested:
Linux
