Description:
Added missing member functions:
H5::CompType::getMemberArrayType
H5::CompType::getMemberVarLenType
H5::AbstractDs::getArrayType
H5::AbstractDs::getVarLenType
H5::CommonFG::openArrayType
H5::CommonFG::openVarLenType
H5::PropList::copyProp -- this will replace the current
H5::PropList::copyProp in later releases due
to incorrect prototype.
H5::IdComponent::getHDFObjType
Bug fix
Description:
Correct problems when querying information about a group that was opened
by dereferencing an object reference.
Solution:
Read in symbol table information instead of rely on it being cached.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
If a named datatype is copied and the copy is used to create a dataset,
the dataset would inadvertantly refer to the original named datatype instead
of a local (possibly modified) copy of the named datatype.
Solution:
Fixed datatype copying routine.

Bug fix
Description:
Further progress on fixing file mounting to work properly.

Description: There was a bug in the calculating code of the Fletcher32
checksum in the library before v1.6.3. The checksum value wasn't consistent
between big-endian and little-endian systems. This bug was fixed in
Release 1.6.3. However, after fixing the bug, the checksum value is no
longer the same as before on little-endian system.
Solution: Made the library compare both the correct checksum and incorrect
checksum generated from v1.6.2 or before. This makes the library be
backward compatible but not forward compatible.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss.
Misc. update: Documented the forward incompatibility problem in the
Known Problem section in RELEASE.txt
Modification on .Net and Intel part
Description:
In batch mode, there should be no options to choose build Only HDF5 C or both C and C++ library
with visual studio .net or intel compiler for the time being

Bug fix & code cleanup
Description:
Don't unmount child files from a parent file if the parent file is
being held open by an object.
Also, moved the mounting routines into their own source file and the
superblock routines into their own file also.
Solution:
Moved the code for unmounting child files down in the H5F_close routine
and also add checks to the file and group mounting code to unmount child
files when the last object holding open a file closes.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Fixed bugs that caused tests to be unable to find testhdf5.sh during
daily tests, and another that broke sol and shanti.
Solution:
When tests are run, their path is ./$testname .
When scripts are run, their path has no leading "./". Fixed.
Sol and shanti don't recognize the -e option for test, but they do know
-f. Fixed.
Also modified release notes.
Platforms tested:
mir, shanti, heping
Bug fix
Description:
When a series of files is mounted on one another and one of those files
is not unmounted, the library gets confused at shutdown and goes into an
infinite loop in the file interface.
Solution:
If there are still files left in the "closing" state when shutting down
the file API, iterate over those file IDs and unmount any child files that we
find mounted on those files.

Description: First, report a bug fix(#214) of family driver. Second

Description:
When compiler flag was used to set the size of Fortran integer
to 8 bytes, library would fail.
Solution:
Cleaned up the code; added detection of Fortran INTEGER type size
and appropriately defined int_f type for C-stubs routines.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.8 32 and 64-bit, AIX 5.1 64-bit parallel
PGI Fortran with -i8 flag on heping
Absoft Fortran with -i8 flag on heping
g95 on mir (Fortran integer is 8 bytes by default that cannot be
changed - compiler bug ;-)
AIX Fortran with -qintsize=8 32 and 64-bit modes on copper
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Hyperslab selections that had a selection offset and were applied to a
chunked dataset could get into an infinite loop or core dump if the same
selection was used multiple times, with different selection offsets.
Solution:
"Normalize" the selection with the selection offset, generate the
selections for the chunks overlapped and then "denormalize" the selection.
