Bug fix/code update
Description:
Upgrade to latest version of config.guess & config.sub, which work
correctly on Cray X1 (and may help on NEC SX-6).
NOTE: This upgrade has _nothing_ to do with autoconf or libtool, these
shell scripts are _not_ tied to any particular version of those tools.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Cray X1
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
The last commited version of config.guess and config.sub does not
have the local changes we made over the time. Thus configure failed
in non-standard machine like the ASCI Red.
Solution:
Replaced them with the last version before the last committed version.
Platforms tested:
ASCI Red
Keeping up with the Jones's
Description:
Updated to latest version of the config.guess and config.sub scripts from
the GNU ftp site, even though the copies in this branch of the library
are OK with the new compiler on the Linux box.
Platforms tested:
Linux (eirene) & FreeBSD 4.1.1 (hawkwind)
applied for various platforms which weren't supported by libtools are now
standard for libtools it seems. There were only a few of the previous
fixes I rolled forward (the diffs follow):

----------------------
./INSTALL
Reorganized and added some additional examples.
./MANIFEST
./aclocal.m4 [NEW]
./configure.in
./configure [REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
./bin/ltconfig [NEW]
./bin/ltmain.sh [NEW]
Added tests to determine how to compile shared libraries and
how to link programs with them before the libraries are
installed. Also how to install and uninstall shared
libraries. The configure step also prints the names of the
config files it's trying to load for easier debugging.
./bin/config.guess
./bin/config.sub
Replaced with a newer version from GNU. The changes we made
to that file to report `irix6.x' and `FreeBSD' without version
numbers have been incorporated into configure.in instead. In
the future, do not change these two files (see the top of
configure.in instead). By the way, this update was required to
get shared libraries working.
./config/linux [REMOVED]
./config/linux-gnulibc1 [NEW]
./config/linux-gnu [NEW]
./config/alpha-dec [REMOVED]
./config/alpha-dec-osf4.0 [REMOVED]
./config/dec-osf4.x [NEW]
./config/irix5.3 [REMOVED]
./config/irix5.x [NEW]
./config/irix64 [REMOVED]
./config/freebsd
Moved config files around to agree with output from the new
config.guess. The linux file was split into gnu (RedHat),
gnulibc1, and gnulibc2 versions. The alpha-dec file was
removed (I think it was unused) and the alpha-dec-osf4.0 was
changed to dec-osf4.x. The irix5.3 file renamed to irix5.x and
the irix64 file was renamed to irix6.x. The freebsd file was
changed to point to linux-gnulibc1. These changes were tested
on:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20
OSF1 4.0
./config/alphaev56-dec-osf4.x
./config/irix64
Added warnings similar to linux/freebsd about using compilers
with known bugs.
./config/commence.in
./config/conclude.in
./src/Makefile.in
./test/Makefile.in
./testpar/Makefile.in
./tools/Makefile.in
Added definitions for shared libraries. This has been tested
on the following systems:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20 static only
OSF1 4.0
If you want to disable use of shared libraries (you probably
do for development purposes since it takes a lot longer to
compile and because you have to run dynamically linked
programs in a special way if the library hasn't been
installed) then add `--disable-shared' to the configure
command line. This is all documented in the INSTALL file.
./bin/release
Temprarily commented out the MANIFEST checking when running
under svf since svf is about to be replaced by a newer
version. This change only affects error checking during the
release process.
./Makefile.dist
./Makefile.in
Added `make check' which does the same thing as `make _test'
since the former is endorsed by the GNU coding style and
people are used to it. The old `make _test' still works too
(and so does `make test' if you use GNU make).
----------------------
./configure.in
./acconfig.h
./configure [REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
./src/H5public.h
./src/H5Omtime.c
Check for <stddef.h>
Checks for `__tm_gmtoff' in `struct tm' because old versions
of GNU libc are different than recent versions. This fixes the
failing mtime test.
./bin/config.guess
./config/freebsd2.2.7 [REMOVED]
./config/freebsd [ADDED]
Changed the name so it works with all versions of FreeBSD.
./src/H5.c
Moved H5F after H5T and H5G in H5_term_library() to satisfy
dependencies.
./src/H5G.c
Fixed a bug that caused H5Gcreate() to fail if the group name
had trailing slashes.
./src/H5Gpublic.h
Changed `group_name' to `name' in a prototype.
./src/Makefile.in
Dynamic library on Linux, but needs for work to be generally
useful.
./src/H5HG.c
./src/H5HGprivate.h
Fixed alignment problems when using old GCC compilers (like
the one shipped with RedHad Linux).
./tools/h5ls.c
Fixed a bug where the contents of the root group could be
listed twice if there was a link back to the root
group. Similarly for groups that are mentioned on the command
line.
Fixed a bug where unknown types were printed with a random
type class number.
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tconv.c
./src/H5Tprivate.h
Fixed O(log N) conversion bugs.
New feature
Problem:
No support for ASCI Red configure.
Solution:
Support for ASCI Red configure.
sasn100: ./configure -v tflop
sasn100: ./configure -v janus
janus: ./configure -v
Platform tested:
TFLOPS Application Server - sasn100
ASCI Red machine - janus

./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.
