Put paths to testfile input & output directories in one place, making it
easier to modify them if we choose to re-arrange our testfile locations in
the future (this should probably be carried over to other test scripts).
Make h5copy exit more cleanly if no command line parameters are given.
Tested on:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
Add small 'h5mkgrp' tool to create groups in an HDF5 file from the command
line, allowing the group structure for a file to be created in a script. This
tool closely follows the 'mkdir' command line tool in UNIX/Linux.
Allow tool library applications to pass a FAPL to the h5tool_fopen() call,
giving some additional flexibility to tools which are adding objects to an
existing HDF5 file (like h5copy & h5mkgrp).
Fix missing files in MANIFEST from previous checkin(s).
Tested on:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
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.
Add support for inserting attributes into creation order index.
Also, update support for dense link & attribute storage in h5debug.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)
Mac OS X/32 10.4.8 (amazon)
It seems that while Cygwin supports the time command, it has trouble with
the syntax
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" time ./testhdf5
and complains.
The solution is to test the above case in configure and not to use the time
command if it fails; Cygwin is fine with
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" ./testhdf5
Tested on Cygwin and kagiso. This feature shouldn't be a major compatibility
problem since every platform but Cygwin is already fine with the current
syntax.
The version of libtool used by HDF5 isn't directly affected by the reconfigure
script; instead, libtoolize --force must be used by hand. Libtool was the
source of the problem, so rolling its version back to 1.5.14 should solve the
issue (at least temporarily).
Reconfigure should still work on both heping and kagiso.
Tested on heping, kagiso, and tg-login3.
Should disable linking against shared libraries in Fortran for compilers that
don't support shared libraries.
Should also fix problem when the wrong Fortran file extension was specified.
If these changes don't solve the Daily Test issues, I'll look at backing out
the autotool version change until I have time to fix them.
Tested on heping, kagiso, juniper.
Added a framework to display information about a particular object.
This option (-O object_name) is not available to the users yet.
Currently only name of an object (or objects) is displayed.
Platforms tested:
sol, kagiso and copper.
Overhaul usage of object header chunks to reduce I/O operations and
memory allocations. The object header prefix is now stored in the first
object header chunk's "image" in memory.
Also, lots of formatting cleanups.
Taught h5debug tool about new object header format (which isn't enabled
just yet).
Tested on:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
Add "use the latest format" support for dataspace object header encode/
decode routines and clean up format a bit for the latest format (new to 1.8.x
releases)
Remove storing 'perm' parameter for array datatypes in memory and the file,
and add test to make certain that if any user applications are attempting to
store them, we get some reports back. (Should be unlikely, since the RefMan
says that the parameter is not implemented and is unsupported).
Carry those changes into the tests, etc.
Clean up a bunch more compiler warnings.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 4.11 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
Linux/32 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Linux/64 2.4 (mir) w/enable-1.6-compat
and quote its arguments. Also checks for the 'socket' library on
Solaris.
If this patch passes the Daily Tests and makes the user happy, I'll
port it back to the 1.6 branch.
Tested on mir and sol.
File format is not stable, don't keep files produced!
Description:
First stage of checkins modifying the format of groups to support creation
order. Implement "dense" storage for links in groups.
Try to clarify some of the symbols for the H5L API.
Add the H5Pset_latest_format() flag for FAPLs, to choose to use the newest
file format options (including "dense" link storage in groups)
Add the H5Pset_track_creation_order() flag for GCPLs, to enable creation
order tracking in groups (although no index on creation order yet).
Remove --enable-group-revision configure flag, as file format issues are
now handled in a backwardly/forwardly compatible way.
Clean up lots of compiler warnings and other minor formatting issues.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 4.11 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
Linux/32 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Linux/64 2.4 (mir) w/enable-v1.6 compa
Mac OSX/32 10.4.8 (amazon)
AIX 5.3 (copper) w/parallel & FORTRAN
Improve density of the B-tree further. For greater depths of B-trees,
the gains are over 100%...
Also, don't split internal nodes with 3->4 splits, use a 1->2 split
instead, so that the density of the nodes around a split is maximized.
Tested:
Mac OS X/PPC 10.4 (amazon)
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
Refactor the file storage of "twig" nodes in the B-tree to allow them to
store more records, increasing the average density of the B-tree 30-40%.
Increase # of records in "insert lots" regression test to still create
B-tree of depth 4
Update h5debug to interpret difference of 'branch' and 'twig' internal
nodes in B-tree correctly.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux/32 2.4 (heping)
Linux/64 2.4 (mir)
Solaris/64 2.9 (shanti)
Since these examples need to follow filesystem paths, the Makefiles need
to create directories in the examples directory; added this to the
Makefile.am.
Tested on Windows, mir, juniper
Several changes, all mooshed together:
- Add support for "tiny" objects - which can be stored in the heap
ID itself, instead of in the heap data blocks.
- Flesh out support for compressed direct blocks, but comment it
out until John's got some metadata cache changes in place to
support it.
- Add support for applying I/O pipeline filters to 'huge' objects
- Refactor 'huge' object code to store information for 'huge' objects
directly in the heap ID, when there are I/O pipeline filters
applied to the heap (and the heap ID is large enough to hold the
information)
- Update h5debug tool to correctly handle 'huge' & 'tiny' objects.
- Misc. other code cleanups, etc.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux/64 2.4 (mir)
Solaris/64 2.9 (shanti)
Users can create external links using H5L_create_external(). These links
point to an object in another HDF5 file. Users can alter the behavior of
external links or create new kinds of links by registering callbacks
using the H5L interface.
Added tests, tools support, etc.
Also a number of other, minor changes have been made (some restructuring of
the H5L interface, for instance).
Additional documentation and examples are forthcoming.
Refactored free space manager to use metadata cache for serialized free
space sections. This speeds up the fractal heap test considerably...
Tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4/32 (chicago)
Linux 2.4/64 (mir)
Mac OS X (amazon)
"make check-vfd" will now run all tests in the test directory with different
file drivers (at least, all of those tests that use the testing framework's
FAPL). Tests that fail will be skipped.
This is not a perfect fix, but is better than nothing.
Along with this change, check-vfd should be added to the Daily Tests.
Code cleanup
Description:
Trim trailing whitespace in Makefile.am and C/C++ source files to make
diffing changes easier.
Platforms tested:
None necessary, whitespace only change
Configuration feature
Description:
'make install' now tests both static and shared libraries if both are installed.
Solution:
Previously, shared libraries were only tested when static libraries were not installed.
Also cleaned up line in commence.am that was including HL library in all Makefiles.
Platforms tested:
mir (Makefile change only)
Description: Added new tests for the h5stat tool; added --version flag
to display library version information and updated expected
output files.
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping, shanti
Misc. update:
Description: Added new tests for the h5stat tool; added --version flag
to the h5stat tool to display library version information
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping, shanti
Misc. update:
Description: Added test script and two test files in the tools/misc/testfiles
directory for testing h5stat tool; modified Makefile.am in tools/misc
and configure.in files to run the new test script; reran bin/recofigure
to update relevant configuration files; updated MANIFEST
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping with in place and srcdir builds; will do more testing
after the checkin.
Misc. update:
Bug fix - bugzilla #552
Description:
On Cray X1, trying to use : as an argument confused the system.
Solution:
Added a test in configure to see if : as an argument is bad.
If so, skipped the test.
Platforms tested:
mir, Cray X1 (change to configure only)
Description: I am checking in changes for the h5stat tool:
- updated Makefile.am to use tools library
- regenerated Makefile.in
- added command flags to display selected information
- added support for external files and filters
- small output formatting changes
For more information about current features and output see
updated h5stat RFC http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/RFC/h5stat/h5stat-spec.pdf
Solution:
Platforms tested: mir, heping, shanti, copper 64-bit, copper 32-bit parallel
using files from tools/testfiles directory and some NASA files
from our Web site.
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
The ${TR}, though avoid the error, is inconvenient. It is needed
because configure.in use the char range in the style of 'a-z'.
The other style of '[a-z]' is more commonly accepted by all tr
but autoconf tends to strip away [], making the syntax rather
clumsy.
Solution:
Learned from autoconf that it avoids the use of character range
by just spell all the letters out. Changed our tr commands to
use those variables defined by autoconf. Also removed the
definition of ${TR} since it will cause inconsistancy when
autoconf also use plain 'tr' in its generated code.
The Makefile.in are changed because the elimination of ${TR} from
configure triggered its removal from all Makefil.in. That is okay
because ${TR} is not used at all in Makefile.
Platforms tested:
h5committested. (sol failed to connected). also tested in shanti
using both /usr/ucb/tr and /bin/tr (the bad one before.)
Misc. update:
Updated both INSTALL and RELEASE files.
Code checkpoint
Description:
Checkpoint fractal heap improvements, as well as move the free space
manager code that it's using into a separate package.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4/64 (mir) w/C++ & FORTRAN
Linux 2.4/32 (heping)
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)
AIX 5.? (copper) w/FORTRAN & parallel
Several bug fixes
Description:
Added config file for Cray X1 (previous file was misnamed)
Simplified some code in hyperslab.c test that seemed to have been
confusing compiler on Cray X1.
Fixed typo in config/commence.am
Cleaned up hl/src/Makefile.am
Solution:
All four fixes should be straightforward. The failure on Cray was
very difficult to debug, but involved arithmetic errors.
This change seems to fix it.
Platforms tested:
heping, copper, sol, some Cray X1 (more testing when system comes back up)
Anti-feature
Description:
Revert changes to H5G_stat_t struct, to make it compatible with the 1.6.x
branch again. The information that was added to the H5G_stat_t struct will
be reported through other API routines.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/C++
Linux 2.4/64 (mir) w/C++ & Fortran
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)
new feature
Description:
1) separated the HL library into "public" and "private" header files, with the same caracteristics as the basic library
2) added the public headers to hdf5.h (with a conditional include macro, defined in configure.in)
3) added the path to HL in all Makefile.am 's , because of the inclusion in hdf5.h
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux 32, 64
AIX
solaris
with fortran and c++
(one packet table example fails)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Previous checkin did a bad thing; 'make clean' failed in example directories.
Solution:
Fixed commence.am so that examples no longer break, and fixed a mistake
in conclude.am.
Platforms tested:
heping (minor makefile change)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
make check-clean didn't clean results of example tests
Solution:
Fixed Makefiles so that check-clean recurses into example directories.
Also a little Makefile cleanup.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, heping, copper
Code checkpoint
Description:
The fractal heap code is reasonably stable and is passing all its
current tests, so checkpoint everything with CVS.
Also, add "statistics" module for v2 B-trees code, which is only a
stub right now.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Mac OSX (amazon)
Linux 2.4 (chicago)
Description: Return value from H5Pget_layout is 0 for the compact datasets;
It was assumed in the code that it was always greater than 0; therefore
assertion failed when h5stat walked a compact dataset.
Solution: Fixed assertion statement
Platforms tested: h5stat doesn't have testscript yet; tested manually
with tfilters.h5 file on heping.
Fix is too minor to test it on multiple platforms.
Misc. update:
New feature & code cleanup
Description:
Update fractal heap to be able to insert objects into a direct block
hanging off the header.
Extract "octal dump" code into separate routine so that both the local
heaps & fractal heaps can use it.
Other code cleanups & support to get this far.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4
