Pursue calls to H5Gcreate() relentlessly and ruthlessly exterminate
them, leaving only a few tame specimens in text files and comments. ;-)
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.4.10 (amazon)
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)
FreeBSD/64 6.2 (liberty)
Linux/32 2.6 (kagiso)
Linux/64 2.6 (smirom)
Solaris/32 5.10 (linew)
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.
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
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.
Code cleanup
Description:
Trim trailing whitespace, which is making 'diff'ing the two branches
difficult.
Solution:
Ran this script in each directory:
foreach f (*.[ch] *.cpp)
sed 's/[[:blank:]]*$//' $f > sed.out && mv sed.out $f
end
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix.
Description:
creat(name, (mode_t)0777) is used to create a new file. However, creat() is not available in Visual Studio.
Solution:
Use a Win32 macro so _creat() will be used on Windows and creat() will be used on Unix.
#ifdef WIN32
fd = _creat(name, _S_IREAD | _S_IWRITE);
#else /* WIN32 */
fd = creat(name,(mode_t)0777);
#endif /* WIN32 */
(Note: At first, I tried to define HDcreat() as _creat() for WIN32 and creat() for other platforms in H5private.h. But _creat() and creat() use different parameters for file permission settings. So, I added the WIN32 macro in h5jamgentest.c.)
Platforms tested:
Heping (Linux)
Visual C++ 6.0 on Windows XP/2000.
.NET on Windows XP.
(Tested with SZIP-with-encoder and SZIP-without-encoder).
Misc. update:
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".
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel & fphdf5
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/backward compatibility
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/"purify options"
Solaris 2.8 (sol) w/FORTRAN & C++
AIX 5.x (copper) w/parallel & FORTRAN
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/FORTRAN
Linux 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Misc. update:
Update.
Description:
Make some minor change so that h5jamgentest.c is compatible with Windows.
Solution:
Change open() and write() functions to HDopen(), and HDwrite().
Platforms tested:
Windows 2000
Windows XP
eirene
(Note: I talked with Bob and Kent about these changes before check-in)
Misc. update:
Adding new 'jam' utility
Description:
New utility, plus changes to makefiles
Solution:
See http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/RFC/Jam
Platforms tested:
verbena (fortran,C++), arabica, hirdls (SGI Irix64)
Misc. update:
Manifest will be done in next checkin.
