bug fix.
Description:
test program used fortran STOP to end the program even when there
was an error. STOP does not exit with non-zero. Therefore, make
or other programs could not detect an error has occurred.
Solution:
Wherever it is appropirate, replace STOP with h5_exit_f statments.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping.
Makefile feature
Description:
'make check-clean' now cleans *.h5 files created by tests as well as
.log and .chkexe files.
Solution:
check-clean is now a separate target in its own right, which cleans less
than mostlyclean (check-clean < mostlyclean < clean < distclean).
Platforms tested:
mir, heping, modi4 (serial and parallel)
Feature: check-clean target
Description:
'make check-clean' cleans up output files from tests.
Solution:
Tests create foo.chkexe and foo.log files. Scripts create foo.chksh and
foo.logsh files. 'make check-clean' will clean these files up so that
the tests can be re-run.
Also suppressed some not-very-useful output of Makefiles when it would
echo commands.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Misc. update:
Configuration feature
Description:
Serial test output is now stored in log files and printed when all tests
in a directory complete, or when a test fails. This should make test output
more readable and useful.
Also made changes to clean up ii_files directories that are created by some
C++ compilers/linkers.
Also fixed a few minor Makefile bugs.
Solution:
When serial tests run, their output is saved in *.log or *.logsh. While
running, tests only print when they begin and when they complete; their
more specific output (from the log file) is printed if the test fails or
when all tests have completed.
Comments welcome.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4 (parallel and serial), copper, shanti
Bug fix
Description:
The ".chksh" file for a test script was being created in the "source"
location rather than the build location. This can cause problems when
multiple builds are running because "slower" machines will see the ".cshsh"
file from faster machines and will not run the test script as they should.
Solution:
Use 'basename' command to strip off the path of the script and create
the ".chksh" file in the build location.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
h5committest
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:
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:
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
Configuration feature
Description:
Fortran integer types (not reals) are now automatically detected at
build-time.
Solution:
Two helper programs are used, one to detect what types the Fortran compiler
has access to, and one to generate header files for C and Fortran matching
up types.
Platforms tested:
mir, copper, modi4, pommier (last week)
Misc. update:
MANIFEST updated, H5f90fortran_types.f90 removed from configure.in, since
it is not longer generated by configure.
Output tweak
Description:
Test output in C++ and Fortran directories now puts "C++ API:" or
"Fortran API:" in front of the name of the test being run.
I had overlooked the line of code that caused this to happen.
Solution:
Added HDF_CXX and HDF_FORTRAN variables to C++ and Fortran Makefiles.am.
Platforms tested:
heping (minor change)
Description: h5pget_driver_f function returned information that could not
be interpreted by fortran application
Solution: Defined Fortran global variables that correspond to
the C H5FD_<driver_name> variables at the Fortran library
initialization time.
Platforms tested: heping with PGI compilers, sol 64-bit and copper parallel
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
Description: Added missing h5get_member_class_f function
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping; it is a simple change. I will
watch daily tests and take care of failures.
Misc. update:
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
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:
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.
Removed GASS configuration and software packages associated with
it. The following software are no longer configurable.
checking for main in -lcrypto... yes
checking for SSL_get_version in -lssl... yes
checking globus_common.h usability... yes
checking globus_common.h presence... yes
checking for globus_common.h... yes
checking for globus_module_activate in -lglobus_common... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gass_cache... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gaa... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gss... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gss_assist... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_io... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gass_transfer_assist... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gass_transfer... yes
checking for globus_gass_open in -lglobus_gass_file... yes
Platforms tested:
h5committested (but copper was down.) tested in modi4 too.
Bug fix
Description:
Fortran builds were dying with unknown flags.
Solution:
Fortran builds should be static, not shared. Static flags had been specified
for libraries, but apparently were also needed for executables.
Solved problem by adding static flag to everything in fortran directories.
Platforms tested:
mir, eirene
Bug fix
Description:
Some machines and compilers were having trouble creating fortran libraries
as shared libraries.
Solution:
Added flag in Makefiles.am to create fortran libraries as shared libraries.
(This is how HDF5 was set up before automake changes; I forgot to add
these flags, and it didn't cause a problem until now.)
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, eirene, verbena
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
modi4 dies during build with strange errors.
The root cause of these is a two-year-old hack in HDF5's libtool
script that only takes effect on IRIX.
Solution:
Edited the libtool hack (by editing ltmain.sh) to correct a bug in
the hack.
Also made sure that compiler-specific DEFAULT_LIBS are used
when linking.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, sol
Bug fix
Description:
While commenting out some code in a Makefile.am, I missed two lines.
Solution:
Commented out those lines.
Platforms tested:
verbena, heping
Misc. update:
Configure feature
Description:
Changed bin/reconfigure.sh script to use autotools in AFS.
Solution:
Previously, the only machine with the correct versions of autoconf and
automake was heping. Now both tools are installed in AFS, so
in theory any hdf machine can be used to run the reconfigure script.
Platforms tested:
heping, eirene, verbena.
On sleipnir and arabica the autotools were unable to find a version
of m4 that was new enough for them.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Arabica exhibited strange errors when linker found wrong versions of
header files. This happened because include directories were
given to linker in the wrong order.
Solution:
Move include directories from AM_CFLAGS variable to INCLUDES
variable to put them before CPPFLAGS variable. Trust me, it works.
This bug may also have contributed to strange errors on other platforms
(kelgia?).
Platforms tested:
copper, sleipnir, arabica.
(h5dump broke while building on arabica, but this happened in
a clean checkout, too).
Bug fix
Description:
pmake (on modi4, for instance) complains about undefined variables
if it is run without the -V flag, which turns those errors to warnings.
Solution:
Added test to configure.in to see if $MAKE will allow Makefiles
with undefined variables. If not, sets -V flag in AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Ensured that all custom make targets use AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Also defined all variables that caused errors in top-level Makefile.am.
This means that pmake can be used to build hdf5 *from the top level
only*. To run make from a subdirectory, still need to use -V flag
(or use make or gmake).
Platforms tested:
modi4, heping, copper, sleipnir
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Parallel builds were breaking in tools/lib
Solution:
talign didn't realize it depended on libh5tools.la because its
dependencies listed the full path (../../tools/lib/libh5tools.la).
Changed this, and made similar changes in a couple of other
directories.
This checkin should also add the --foreign flag to every Makefile.in
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (minor change)
New feature
Description:
Add basic code for new B-tree implementation. They don't do much yet,
aren't hooked up to anything yet and the format may change, but I'd like to
start getting them into the daily tests.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Found the permanant fix to automake/CVS dependency problem
Solution:
Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE macro to configure.in.
Now automake will never try to regenerate Makefiles, Makefiles.in,
configure, H5config.h, etc. when they are out of date, nor will it
print any warnings.
Developers should be very very careful to use reconfigure script,
and can add --enable-maintainer-mode flag to configure on heping
to regenerate these files correctly.
Platforms tested:
heping sleipnir copper
Bug fix
Description:
Configuration files' timestamps were incorrect.
Solution:
Update Makefiles.in. Also added correct paths to autotools on heping,
so heping build should be able to re-generate configuration files even
if they are still broken.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir
Bug fix
Description:
Dependencies between configure files (aclocal, configure.in, configure,
Makefiles.am and .in) are still causing Makefiles to try to run autotools
during build.
Solution:
Committed all Makefiles.in to update their timestamps.
As a temporary measure, forcibly prevented automake from running
autotools during build by redefining the variables it uses.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (No changes to Makefile content)
Bug fix
Description:
Different compilers use different flags to include Fortran module files
Solution:
Changed boilerplate to use configure variable rather than hardcoded -M flag.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, sol, copper
Configuration feature
Description:
HDF5 now uses automake to generate Makefiles
Solution:
Makefile.in files are now generated from Makefile.am files.
To reconfigure (after chaning a Makefile.am or configure.in):
/bin/sh bin/reconfigure.sh
Platforms tested:
Many
Description: Removed PABLO from the source
Solution:
Platforms tested: arabica with 64-bit, copper with parallel,
heping with GNU C and C++ and PGI fortran (but
I disabled hl, there is some weird problem only
on heping: F9XMODFLAG is not
propagated to the Makefile files
Misc. update:
Description: Fortran module search directories included ../src and
../../fortran/src directories; this was defined in
acsite.m4 file in order for fortran and HL fortran tests
to compile. Those flags were included in h5fc and h5pfc scripts.
Solution: Removed those directories from acsite.m4 file and updated
Makefile.in files.
Platforms tested: sequential on arabica and parallel on copper
including HL Fortran
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: Test reported failure because of the wrong
testing condition when szip didn't have encoder
Solution: Fixed the code
Platforms tested: copper with
SZIP not present
SZIP encoder/decoder present
SZIP decoder present
Misc. update:
Description: libh5test_fortran.a(la) files were installed by
make install
Solution: Brought changes back from 1.6
Platforms tested: mir, eirene
Misc. update:
Description: Fortran szip test had a wrong logic; as a result
wrong return values were reported in the absence of
the SZIP library, and it was skipped when encoder was
disable
Solution: Fixed the test
Now SZIP fortran test should report "SKIP" only
when SZIP is not configured in.
Platforms tested: tg-login in parallel mode, copper,
mir with new PGI compilers and shared
SZIP libraries. All platforms were tested with
SZIP not available
SZIP with encoder/decoder
SZIP with decoder only
Misc. update:
bug fix and document.
Description:
Unix and probably other systems too, has a small exit value range
such as 1 byte. So, exit(256) may end up the same as exit(1).
Added caution message to the exit wrappers and changed test programs
to exit(1) when errors detected.
Platforms tested:
tested in copper. verified here that exit(256) was treated just like
exit(0).
Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-)
Description:
Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections.
However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier
until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I
brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the
release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in
performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch,
but not the other.
I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label
"before_signed_unsigned_changes".
