Code cleanup/bug fix
Description:
Fix configuration files to allow 64-bit compilation of the library with
a 64-bit version of zlib.
Solution:
Moved important compiler flags settings from CC macro to CFLAGS macro.
Instead of setting CC (F9X, CXX) environment variable for compiling for 64-bit
code, users should just set the CFLAGS (FFLAGS, CXXFLAGS) to -q64.
Updated INSTALL file to reflect this change.
Platforms tested:
IBM p690 (copper) w/parallel, FORTRAN, C++, srcdir.
Platforms specific - h5committest does not apply.
Description: When make install prefix=NEW_DIR is used to specify
new location for the installed HDF5 library, h5redeploy
should be used to fix h5cc, etc. scripts. INSTALL file
suggested to fix scripts by hand.
Solution: Modified instructions to use h5redeploy.
Platforms tested: verbena
Misc. update:
Description: After talking to Barbara we decided to use
ftp://ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF/HDF5/current/ location for
Intel and Cray Fortran source code patches.
Solution: Edited the file to point to new location.

Misc. update:
Update
Description:
Explained that, if the user uses the "make install prefix=NEW_DIR"
option, they'll need to modify the installed h5cc file to reflect the
change.
Purpose:
Feature add
Description:
Changed the "make install" thingy to "make install-all" in the
quick-setup guide. Also, changed the version number of HDF5 in the
examples from 1.4.0 and 1.2.0 to 1.5.x
document update
Description:
The information of setting SGI_ABI seemed to confuse some user.
Removed it since it is extra information in addition to the
preferred method of "CC=... ./configure".
Experienced user in IRIX64 would know that option.
Platforms tested:
Eyeballed.
Purpose:
Maintenance
Description:
Source directory has been rearranged. INSTALL*, HISTORY.txt and RELEASE.txt were moved to the release_docs directory. *.zip files were moved to the windows directory. README file was renamed to README.txt MANIFEST was updated to reflect those changes.
