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
Bug fixes
Description:
Updated dependencies
Fixed error with C++ compiler builds of main library
Added H5Pset_data_transform to MPE info
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Code cleanup
Description:
Clean up lots of warnings based on those reported from the SGI compilers
as well as gcc.
Platforms tested:
SGI O3900, IRIX64 6.5 (Cheryl's SGI machine)
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/ & w/o parallel
h5committest
Code Improvement
Description:
Changed from passing a structure into a function by value into
passing it in by pointer. Noticed this while compiling with a highly
optimizing compiler which took >30 minutes to analyze the program
(granted, this is the compiler's fault, but in general, it's better
to pass large structures in by pointer and not by value).
Platforms tested:
Linux (specific to h5import, so only needed to test on one platform)
Misc. update:
Updated the copyright notice--mostly by rearranging
some text to make them consistent.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
"h5committested"--sol is down, so, no SUn test.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Use H5E_BEGIN_TRY/H5E_END_TRY macros around code which shouldn't display
the error stack on failure, instead of setting and resetting the automatic
error printing routines.
Platforms tested:
h5committested
Bug Fix
Description:
The SUBDIRS macro is now defined as "" in the config/commence.in
file. We shouldn't have definitions of this macro before the
inclusion of config/commence.in.
Solution:
Placed all definitions of SUBDIRS after config/commence.in inclusion.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (Small fix yet again).
Misc. update:
Minor corrections to match the man pages. Code provided by Pankaj.
Description:
* do not accept more than 30 file names
* corrected error messages.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Tested on verbena.
Already tested on several platforms before integration.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
The tests would just segmentation fault in Tflops because the
compiled code were launched without using the $RUNSERIAL to launch
them. This may fail in some batch systems like Tflops.
Solution:
Used $RUNSERIAL to launch the compiled code.
Also fixed a typo of the script command line.
Platforms tested:
Only tested in Tflops since the modified code resided there.
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: On HP11.00 and True64 systems strtoll function that is used
to read text to long integers is not available. Compilation
fails for h5import.c
Solution: Replace strtoll with HDstrtoll. HDstrtoll is a private HDF5 function
defined in H5private.h file, but this include file was already used
by h5import for some other reasons. It would be probably better
to choose strtol or strtoll functions at the configuration
time, but HDstrtoll provided really simple solution for now.
Platforms tested: arabica (to test that where it was working, it is still working),
kelgia (HP11.00) and PSC True64 machine.
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: h5import tests will fail if srcdir option
is used with configure.
Solution: Modified h5importtest.c h5importtestutil.sh files
to search for input files in the proper directory and
to write output files to the proper directory.
Platforms tested: Tested on burrwhite, arabica, and modi4.
Unfortunately srcdir option was used only on
arabica, since I am having a weird 'timezone'
problem on all Linux machines when srcdir is used, and
on modi4 build has to be done in the same directory (at
least this is a message I am getting from configure;
should it work?)
Misc. update:
Purpose: New tool
Description: Pankaj created h5import tool long time ago. I am finally checking
the source code in for the 1.6 release.
Known problems: h5import test will crash if srcdir option
is used; will be fixed before the release.
Solution:
Platforms tested: vebena, arabica, modi4 were tested. h5import tests passed
I also tested on arabica with srcdir option to make sure that
there is a problem when srcdir is used. After that I disabled
h5import tests. Daily tests will build h5import, but will not run
h5import tests.
