h5repack new feature
Description:
in the SZIP settings, when the requested pixels per block parameter does not conform
to the SZIP specifications, instead of returning without applying the filter,
do an attempt to set this parameter to a valid value, issuing a warning in the process

Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
improvement.
Description:
Created an entry for 2.96 and added -Wno-long-long to the CFLAGS
to suppress the thousands of 'long long' warnings because we are
using it and we know it is not in the C89 standard.
Platforms tested:
Only in verbena.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Add C++ and FORTRAN wrappers for new H5Pdelete_filter routine, along with
documentation and a note in the release notes.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena) w/ C++ and FORTRAN
Too minor for full h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Update gcc 3.4 flags to reduce optimization level to the same settings
as for gcc 3.0-3.3 due to code generation bugs at higher optimization levels.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
new library function H5Pdelete_filter
deletes one or all filters from a dataset creation property list
this was done for the NONE option of h5repack, added tests for this feature
added a test for the new function in /test/dsets.c

Misc. update:
Improvement
Description:
Changed parsing of verbose level by the common test library routine.
Change t_mpi.c to use the Verbose control better.
Platforms tested:
verena (pp).
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
C++ compilers do not like the variable name new which is a kind word
for C++. Changed it to newval instead.
Platforms tested:
Tested in Copper which is the one complained about the name.
Improvement.
Description:
Complete change of the verbose control to use the routines provided by
the test/libh5test.a.
Also put in a temporary fix for the H5Eset_auto() and H5Eget_auto()
so that the Compat code are isolated in one place rather than all over
the source file.
Platforms tested:
Tested in Eirene (parallel).
Misc. update:
New feature.
Description:
Added function SetTestVerbosity() so that other applications can
set the verbosity explicitedly without the whole testframe taking
over.
Added Verbose queries shorthands to make code more readable and
easier to change the levels of low, medium and high.
Platforms tested:
Eirene (both serial and parallel).
Misc. update:
Improvement.
Description:
Verbosity level were specified by numbers which are not meaningful
and prone to typos.
Solution:
Adapted the Verbosity predefined level symbols from HDF4
and changed all numberic verbosity to symbolic values.
(Still need to convert some left over macros like MESSAGE.)
Platforms tested:
Eirene.
No h5committest since this is trivial.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Tweak address comparison of external file list's heap address a bit to
pacify Windows.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Asking Pedro to test on Windows
Too minor to require h5committest
Add tests & docs
Description:
Added tests for the recent B-tree bug fixes & document their fix in the
release notes.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix.
Description:
Fix problems in B-tree deletion routine that were corrupting the data
structure when the B-tree had several levels and the right-most item from a
leaf node that was the right-most child of an internal node was removed.
Also address similar problems when a complete internal or right-most node
was removed.
NOTE: The B-tree deletion routines are still _NOT_ maintaining the B-tree
properties correctly, that will be addressed in a future (hopefully soon) fix.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
too obscure to require h5committest
added h5repack and h5diff support for copying and differences of references to dataset regions
modified the behaviour in the diff of attributes, when a difference in name is detected
in the attribute cycle (number of attributes of object), instead of exiting the
cycle, rather continue
Description:

Platforms tested:
linux

Misc. update:
changed the text of a error message related to the fail of H5Fopen to " unable to open file "
Description:
Solution:
Platforms tested:

Misc. update:
Description: h5dump and h5ls failed an assertion check when a dataset's
datatype is enumerate type and there are special characters in the names
of these values.
Platforms tested: h5committest
bug fix
Description:
cases of rank 0 were not handled, now a warning is made that the dataset cannot be compressed
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux

AIX
Misc. update:
h5repack change
Description:
changed the default size of chunks when defining a new dataset to apply a filter
this size is now equal to the current dimensions. previously , it was set to half this
value, and it was causing write calls to fail on some files (probably a bug)
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Correct two problems with variable-length datatypes in datasets:
- When overwriting an entire dataset, writing the fill value to the
file would be skipped, causing problems for VL datatypes when
objects in the file had been unlinked (and thus the space in the
file was not all zeros)
- When an application has set a fill-value for a dataset and the
dataset's datatype contained a VL datatype, the library was filling
space on disk with the memory form of the VL information, instead
of the disk form.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)

Code cleanup
Description:
Remove duplicate output code accidentally left in after testing changes.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Code cleanup & reorganization
Description:
Move further in the testing framework cleanup, eliminating all the
global variables (moving them into testframe.c as static variables) from the
testing framework code and moving it into the libh5test.a.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w & w/o thread-safety, c++ & parallel

Misc. update:
Description: After titan updated ecc compiler, int64_t cannot be found.
Solution: Added -D__GNUC__ to CFLAGS to enable int64_t in /usr/include/stdint.h
Platforms tested: titan(titan specific)
bug fix, code improvment
Description:
fixed a bug in the parse of chunking function
added some auxiliary functions to avoid repeated parts of the code in several places
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
When two property lists are compared, the H5Pequal routine was just
comparing the raw information for the property values. This causes problems
when the raw information contains pointers to other information.
Solution:
Allow a 'compare' callback to be registered for properties, so that a user
application get perform the comparison itself, allowing for "deep" compares of
the property value.
This was exported to the H5Pregister & H5Pinsert routines in the development
branch, but not the release branch.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)

Purpose: Maintenance
Description: Fortran APIs MAC OS X port for IBM XL Fortran compiler
Solution: Brought back changes from 1.6 branch

Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Fix small memory leak of fill-value information inside the library.
Solution:
"reset" the fill-value object header message, so that the internal buffer
gets freed.
