and replace it with new url for COPYING file.
Fix 2 lines in java error test expected output file where messages
include line numbers changed by reducing the copyright header by 2
lines.
The only remaining code consists of a few floating-point tests
that rely on pre-generated and checked-in VMS files. These have
been left alone, even though they will not be possible to
recreate, since testing VMS float behavior is still important.
Tested on: h5committest
Tested platform:
Kagiso only since it is only a comment block change. If it works in one
machine, it should work in all, I hope. Still need to check the parallel
build on copper.
Improvement
Description:
The previous HTML files strategy was to expect the very first comment
block is the copyright notice. That did not work well as more and more
other comments appear now.
Solution:
Changed the strategy to look for the only the essential body of copyright
notice. This no longer verifies this body of text is a comment block. But
the previous strategy is not really bullet-proof either.
Platforms tested:
tested in heping.
Bug fix, feature.
Description:
Fix a bug to recognize "#xyz..." is a comment in the init file.
Add more binary data file types.
Added prunepath command.
Platforms tested:
heping.
Improvement
Description:
The copyright notice of some files may contain some white spaces such
as tabs, trailing blanks and \r (common in Windows files). Diff will
flag them as not matching. Could not just use -b or -w of diff because
it will ignore embedded spaces and could not handle \r anyway.
Solution:
Added a RINSE function will remove all \r and trailing spaces and
expand tabs to proper number of spaces. Now, diff can compare without
worry of cosmetic white spaces.
Platforms tested:
heping, applying on a Windows/copy_hdf.bat file.
Added another case of shell-like style file--if lines leading by #'s
are found, treat it like a shell-like style file.
Platforms tested:
hand tested in heping.
New feature.
Description:
Added code that try to guess what type of file it is by inspecting the
first 5 lines. Then it tries to find the Copyright notice according
to the guess.
Another revamp.
Description:
Now search the copyright notice within the beginning 60 lines only.
(This applies to source code. For HTML files, it is still search
all the way through the file.)
Platforms tested:
Hand tested.
revision.
Description:
The copyright notice for Makefile(in) were fixed at the beginning of the files.
But they are now generated by automake and autoconf such that Gnu jams its
own copyright block at the beginning.
Solution:
Changed the rule such that the HDF5 copyright notice can be somewhere else
in the file as long as they are together as one paragraph.
Also added recognition of Makefile.am as a possible MAKEFILE type.
Platforms tested:
Tested by hand in heping.
New features
Description:
Add options of verbose (-v, -v9) and -fname which limits to
checking file with the file name pattern.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Did not h5committest which does not cover this command.
Verified it by hand.
Misc. update:
feature
Description:
Added the checking for Makefile.
Skip checking CVS files.
Printed filename of unknown file types.
Platforms tested:
No h5committest.
Tested by hand on various files.
Misc. update:
New Feature
Description:
A command script to check if the Copyright notice is included in
the files.
Platforms tested:
no h5committest since it does not apply.
Tested by hand.
Misc. update:
Updated MANIFEST
