Changes since 19990615
----------------------
./README
Version number synchronized with library.
./bin/h5vers
If the version number of the library is changed then the first
line of the README file is also changed to something like
This is hdf5-1.2.3 currently under development
The `release' script (which also gets run by `snapshot')
changes that line to include the release date but keeps the
version number the same. The net effect is that the version
numbers in README and H5public.h should now always stay
synchronized.
./bin/snapshot
The CVS checkin comment includes the version number for the
snapshot that was just made.
./tools/testh5toh4
Changed `*-SKIP-*' to `-SKIP-' to be consistent with the other
tests.
----------------------
Remove changes from CVS
./bin/release
Added a `--nocheck' switch which causes the script to not
check the contents of the MANIFEST file against CVS. This is
sometimes useful when you need to make a quick snapshot but
the MANIFEST file is not quite up to date.
./src/H5D.c
Removed warnings for unused variables
./src/H5Fprivate.h
Removed the WIN32 definition for `uint' and changed the data
type for `eof_written' from `uint' to `uintn'. Shouldn't this
really be `hbool_t'?
./src/H5Odtype.c
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tconv.c
./src/H5Tpkg.h
./src/H5Tpublic.h
./test/dtypes.c
./doc/html/H5.format.html
Added support for bitfields and opaque data types.
----------------------
./tools/h5ls.c
Added a `--address' (`-a') switch which causes h5ls to display
file addresses for raw data. For contiguous datasets it's just
a nice simple number, but for chunked datasets it's a list of
logical dataset coordinates, file addresses, filter masks, and
storage sizes.
Changed `--dump' switch to `--data'.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
Enhanced the indexed-storage B-tree iterator so it can dump
raw data addresses (and other info) to the standard error
stream.
Added H5Ddebug() so h5ls has a way to dump addresses for
datasets. I'm not sure what else this API function should do,
so I think we should discuss it before we document it. So far,
h5ls is the only thing that uses it, and we can easily change
that.
./src/H5Tconv.c
./test/dtypes.c
Finally had a chance to verify Paul's H5T_conv_s_s (general
string to string conversions) bug fixes and incorporate them
into H5T_conv_f_f (general floating-point to floating-point
conversions) and H5T_conv_i_i (general integer to integer
conversons). Thanks Paul.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5S.c
./src/H5Sprivate.h
Added performance timers around data space read and write
callbacks. They were already there for the gather/scatter
callbacks.
The timings for read/write callbacks are displayed along with
gather/scatter when data space debugging is turned on.
./bin/iostats
Updated to print totals. Added a `--fast' option that doesn't
do any output except the totals and is much faster.
./bin/trace
Changed __unused__ to UNUSED to match source code.
./config/gnu-flags
Updated error message for pgcc. I've sent bug reports to the
pgcc people but the new version still has the same bug.
./configure.in
./config/conclude.in
./config/depend.in
Fixed dependencies for non-GNU makes when run in a directory
other than the hdf5 source tree.
Updated GNU `make dep' rules to copy the distributed
dependencies for non-GNU makes into the source tree when run
in some other directory.
----------------------
./INSTALL
Reorganized and added some additional examples.
./MANIFEST
./aclocal.m4 [NEW]
./configure.in
./configure [REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
./bin/ltconfig [NEW]
./bin/ltmain.sh [NEW]
Added tests to determine how to compile shared libraries and
how to link programs with them before the libraries are
installed. Also how to install and uninstall shared
libraries. The configure step also prints the names of the
config files it's trying to load for easier debugging.
./bin/config.guess
./bin/config.sub
Replaced with a newer version from GNU. The changes we made
to that file to report `irix6.x' and `FreeBSD' without version
numbers have been incorporated into configure.in instead. In
the future, do not change these two files (see the top of
configure.in instead). By the way, this update was required to
get shared libraries working.
./config/linux [REMOVED]
./config/linux-gnulibc1 [NEW]
./config/linux-gnu [NEW]
./config/alpha-dec [REMOVED]
./config/alpha-dec-osf4.0 [REMOVED]
./config/dec-osf4.x [NEW]
./config/irix5.3 [REMOVED]
./config/irix5.x [NEW]
./config/irix64 [REMOVED]
./config/freebsd
Moved config files around to agree with output from the new
config.guess. The linux file was split into gnu (RedHat),
gnulibc1, and gnulibc2 versions. The alpha-dec file was
removed (I think it was unused) and the alpha-dec-osf4.0 was
changed to dec-osf4.x. The irix5.3 file renamed to irix5.x and
the irix64 file was renamed to irix6.x. The freebsd file was
changed to point to linux-gnulibc1. These changes were tested
on:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20
OSF1 4.0
./config/alphaev56-dec-osf4.x
./config/irix64
Added warnings similar to linux/freebsd about using compilers
with known bugs.
./config/commence.in
./config/conclude.in
./src/Makefile.in
./test/Makefile.in
./testpar/Makefile.in
./tools/Makefile.in
Added definitions for shared libraries. This has been tested
on the following systems:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20 static only
OSF1 4.0
If you want to disable use of shared libraries (you probably
do for development purposes since it takes a lot longer to
compile and because you have to run dynamically linked
programs in a special way if the library hasn't been
installed) then add `--disable-shared' to the configure
command line. This is all documented in the INSTALL file.
./bin/release
Temprarily commented out the MANIFEST checking when running
under svf since svf is about to be replaced by a newer
version. This change only affects error checking during the
release process.
./Makefile.dist
./Makefile.in
Added `make check' which does the same thing as `make _test'
since the former is endorsed by the GNU coding style and
people are used to it. The old `make _test' still works too
(and so does `make test' if you use GNU make).
----------------------
./INSTALL
Added warnings and a disclaimer about GNU, DEC, Irix64, and NT
compilers that generate incorrect machine code.
./configure.in
./src/H5private.h
Detects and includes <sys/param.h> which is needed on FreeBSD
before <sys/proc.h> even though we only really using anything
from <sys/proc.h> on the DEC Alpha.
./config/irix64
Turned off warnings for duplicate definitions from the linker
because -lnsl on irix has the same stuff in it as -lc.
./config/irix6.x
Split up the CC and CFLAGS settings like with irix64 so that
compilers besides `-n32' can be used.
./bin/snapshot
The snapshots are tagged with names like hdf5-1_1_52 which is
similar to the way the releases are tagged (cvs doesn't allow
dots in tags).
./test/dtypes.c
./src/H5private.h
./src/H5Tconv.c
Fixed some alignment violations on the DEC when using high
optimization levels. The DEC incorrectly optimizes certain
memcpy() and memmove() calls when the source argument is not
word aligned if the call looks like it's copying an atomic
data type.
./test/hyperslab
Worked around code generation bugs in the Irix64 Mongoose 7.00
compiler by casting some `unsigned long' values to `unsigned'
in an expression.
./src/H5Ocomp.c
Fixed a place where %d was used to print a size_t.
----------------------
./configure.in
./acconfig.h
./configure [REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
./src/H5public.h
./src/H5Omtime.c
Check for <stddef.h>
Checks for `__tm_gmtoff' in `struct tm' because old versions
of GNU libc are different than recent versions. This fixes the
failing mtime test.
./bin/config.guess
./config/freebsd2.2.7 [REMOVED]
./config/freebsd [ADDED]
Changed the name so it works with all versions of FreeBSD.
./src/H5.c
Moved H5F after H5T and H5G in H5_term_library() to satisfy
dependencies.
./src/H5G.c
Fixed a bug that caused H5Gcreate() to fail if the group name
had trailing slashes.
./src/H5Gpublic.h
Changed `group_name' to `name' in a prototype.
./src/Makefile.in
Dynamic library on Linux, but needs for work to be generally
useful.
./src/H5HG.c
./src/H5HGprivate.h
Fixed alignment problems when using old GCC compilers (like
the one shipped with RedHad Linux).
./tools/h5ls.c
Fixed a bug where the contents of the root group could be
listed twice if there was a link back to the root
group. Similarly for groups that are mentioned on the command
line.
Fixed a bug where unknown types were printed with a random
type class number.
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tconv.c
./src/H5Tprivate.h
Fixed O(log N) conversion bugs.
----------------------
./INSTALL
Added warning that enabling debugging code can adversely
affect performance even when the debugging isn't turned on at
run-time. Performance testing shows that under certain
circumstances (like data type conversions of compound types)
the H5_timer functions, although only a few lines each,
contribute a fairly large percent to the execution time.
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tpkg.h
./src/H5Tpublic.h
Improved the H5Tunregister() function to make unregistering
more flexible. It takes the same arguments as H5Tregister()
but also accepts wild cards. All conversion functions that
match the H5Tunregister() search criteria are removed from the
global type conversion table.
The H5Tregister_hard() and H5Tregister_soft() were combined
into a single function called H5Tregister() which is the
counterpart to H5Tunregister(). A new `persistence' argument
was added to differentiate between the two types of conversion
functions.
The application is allowed to register a hard conversion
function for the no-op conversion path although the library
isn't obligated to call it (it usually does). This is mostly
for completeness, but the application might use it to help
determine if the raw data pipeline was able to use the
optimized path for the case when no type conversion is
necessary. The library doesn't allow this path to be
unregistered although the application can redefine it as often
as it likes.
Fixed the type conversion tables in preparation for MT-safety
and to fix previosly-known design bugs wrt. unregistering
conversion functions or changing the C function associated
with a conversion path. The MT-safety stuff is documented in a
separate white paper.
Increased the conversion function debugging name from 9
characters to 31 characters so the output can be more
descriptive.
Moved conversion path statistics from the H5T_cdata_t member
into the conversion path itself. This makes H5T_cdata_t
contain only application-visible data structures.
./src/H5A.c
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Ofill.c
./src/H5P.c
./src/H5T.c
Improved the way type conversion functions are called so the
caller doesn't have to check for data type debugging and
increment type conversion timers and statistics.
Changed check for no-op conversion since it is now
application-definable and there may even be more than one
definition at a time in a multi-threaded application (one
thread might be using the no-op conversion path when some
other thread changes its definition -- the first thread still
sees the original defintion until it's done with the
operation).
./doc/html/Datatypes.html
Updated the user guide to reflect the changes to data type
conversion registration functions.
./bin/trace
./src/H5.c
Added tracing support for the new H5T_pers_t data type.
./test/dtypes.c
Added printf to display alignment value if non-aligned data
types are being tested.
./test/h5test.c
Modified the H5Tunregister() calls to use the new
arguments. All 94 of those calls can be replaced by a single
call to the new H5Tunregister() function.
./src/H5.c
Added HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY around an auto variable and
initialized the elapsed time to zero when gettimeofday() is
not available.
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
./src/H5P.c
Added an H5*_init() functions which do the same thing as
H5*_init_interface() but can be called from other packages and
don't do anything if the interface is already initialized.
This fixes a couple memory leaks in applications that
repeatedly close and open the library with H5close().
./src/H5Tconv.c
Optimized some data alignment code in the hardware conversion
functions.
Hardware conversions accumulate statistics about source and
destination data alignment and print that information when the
conversion function is unregistered (usually when the
application exits) if data type debugging is compiled into the
library and enabled at run-time.
The conversion caching was cleaned up for the compound data
type conversion function. It now caches conversion paths in a
manner that will be MT-safe and is much simpler than the old
method. Also cleaned up some array index maps.
./src/H5detect.c
Fixd mispelling of alingemnt.
./src/H5private.h
Changed `TRUE' to `1' in assignment to interface_initialize_g
in FUNC_ENTER macro definition.
./tools/testh5dump.sh
Completely rewritten to make it shorter, better documented,
and conforming to most of the other test outputs.
The comparison of the actual output with the expected output
is insensitive to differences in white space. The test now
passes for the first time on Linux where the output width
wasn't as expected but the output was otherwise correct.
./tools/testfiles/tall-1.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tall-2.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tall-3.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tattr-1.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tattr-2.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tattr-3.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tattr-4.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tcomp-1.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tcomp-2.ddl

./tools/testfiles/tdset-1.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tdset-2.ddl

./tools/testfiles/tdset-4.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tgroup-1.ddl

./tools/testfiles/tlink-4.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tlink-5.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tslink-1.ddl
./tools/testfiles/tslink-2.ddl
Changed `../h5dump' to just `h5dump'.
./config/alpha-dec-osf4.0
Added more warning and optimization switches to the native
compiler.
----------------------
./config/conclude.in
./test/Makefile.in
./tools/Makefile.in
The Makefile $TESTS variable has finally been split into
$TEST_PROGS and $TEST_SCRIPTS with the latter being the names
of shell scripts that need to be run with `/bin/sh'. Now we
don't have to copy each shell script before we run it. NOTE:
THIS CHANGE DOES NOT AFFECT THE PABLO MAKEFILE SINCE THAT FILE
IS A COPY OF A PREVIOUSLY GENERATED MAKEFILE.
./src/Makefile.in
Added H5Snone.c to the source list.
./src/H5G.c
Plugged a memory leak by emptying the object type "isa" table
when the library is closed.
./src/H5Tconv.c
./src/H5Tpkg.h
Added 48 new type functions to take advantage of hardware for
integer type conversions. These functions are not registered
in the conversion table yet because I haven't fully tested
them.
./src/H5Tpkg.h
Removed __unused__ qualifiers from prototypes.
----------------------
./bin/snapshot
Made same fix as for the release script yesterday.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Dprivate.h
./src/H5G.c
./src/H5Gprivate.h
./src/H5Gpublic.h
./src/H5O.c
./src/H5Oprivate.h
./src/H5RA.c
./src/H5RAprivate.h
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tprivate.h
Improved object type checking. Instead of determining the
object type by trying to open each of the possible types, we
keep a table of associations between object type number (like
H5G_GROUP, H5G_DATASET, H5D_TYPE, and H5D_RAGGED) and an `isa'
function that returns true if the object header has the right
messages to make the object a particular type. This mechanism
also allows specialization of object types by permitting an
object to satisfy more than one `isa' function.
Added `isa' functions for groups, datasets, ragged arrays, and
committed data types.
./src/H5config.h.in
Added HAVE_STAT_ST_BLOCKS. I thought this had already been
added, but apparently not.
./tools/h5ls.c
Removed system include files since they're already included by
H5private.h and since I wasn't including them portably anyway.
By default, 1-byte integer types are printed as integer values
instead of ASCII characters. However, the `-s' or `--string'
command-line switch causes the data to be interpretted as
ASCII. String data types are always printed as character
data.
Ragged arrays are now identified as ragged arrays and h5ls
doesn't descend into the group automatically. This uses the
new object type specialization stuff.
./tools/h5tools.c
./tools/h5tools.h
Added the ability to print 1-byte integer types as either
ASCII or numeric data instead of always ASCII. The default is
to print as numeric data.
----------------------
./bin/trace
./src/H5.c
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
./src/H5Fpublic.h
Added a `scope' argument to H5Fflush() which should be either
H5F_SCOPE_LOCAL or H5F_SCOPE_GLOBAL and determines which files
are flushed (just the specified file or the entire virtual
file).
./src/H5F.c
Added reference counts to the H5F_t struct so we get the
correct behavior between H5Funmount() and H5Fclose().
./src/H5O.c
Fixed a memory leak that happens during error handling.
./test/cmpd_dset.c
./test/unlink.c
Fixed a memory leak.
./test/mount.c
Enabled the H5Fclose() test.
----------------------
./COPYING
Reformatted as text instead of C. Removed zlib crew from the
list of contributors since no zlib code is actually in the
hdf5 library.
./INSTALL
./INSTALL.ascired
./MANIFEST
Minor updates for Beta release including version number
change.
./INSTALL_MAINT
Added information about making a release.
./RELEASE
Updated function list based on public header files.
./bin/checkposix
Got rid of complaints about some obvious things.
./doc/html/H5.api.html
./doc/html/RM_H5F.html
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fpublic.h
./test/tfile.c
Changed H5Fget_create_template() and H5Fget_access_template()
to H5Fget_create_plist() and H5Fget_access_plist() since that
conforms better to lots of other names.
./doc/html/Datatypes.html
./doc/html/ExternalFiles.html
./doc/html/Files.html
./doc/html/H5.api.html
./doc/html/H5.sample_code.html
./doc/html/RM_H5F.html
./doc/html/RM_H5Front.html
Changed `template' to `property list', etc.
./doc/html/Ragged.html [NEW]
Documentation for ragged arrays.
./src/H5Iprivate.h
./src/H5Ipublic.h
./src/H5I.c
Changed the scope of some symbols to be more local.
./src/H5.c
./src/H5AC.c
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5E.c
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Ffamily.c

./src/H5Shyper.c
./src/H5Tbit.c
./src/H5Tconv.c
./src/H5V.c
./src/H5Z.c
./src/H5private.h
Fixed some violations of our naming scheme by adding HD to the
beginning of all Posix functions.
----------------------
./MANIFEST
./bin/release
./bin/snapshot
The format of the MANIFEST file has been relaxed -- comments
and blank lines should no longer confuse the tools that use
it.
As before, this file should contain a list of *all* files that
are part of HDF5, which means all files which are managed by
CVS/SVF. However, files can be marked so they're not part of
a release by adding _DO_NOT_DISTRIBUTE_ after the file name.
I've removed all the *.obj files from the distribution by
adding _DO_NOT_DISTRIBUTE_ after their names. I also removed
the old white-papers that might not apply to the current
version of the library and documentation about chunking
performance since it's wrong now that chunk caching is
implemented. Everyone please check the files you're
responsible for to make sure that they should really be part
of a release.
To get a list of all files use
grep '^\.' MANIFEST | cut -f1
To get a list of files for distribution use:
grep '^\.' MANIFEST | grep -v _DO_NOT_DISTRIBUTE_
(These commands assume tabs in the MANIFEST file. If the file
might contain spaces then run it through `unexpand' or `tr'
first).
./configure.in
./configure
./test/ragged.c
Check for sigaction().
./test/Makefile.in
The `clean' target removes the timing tests.
----------------------
./RELEASE
Updated with important changes I made since the second beta.
./src/H5A.c
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Dprivate.h
./src/H5G.c
./src/H5Gprivate.h
./src/H5R.c
./src/H5Rprivate.h
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tprivate.h
Any API function that used to take an `hid_t loc_id' followed
by a `const char *name' can now take any type of object for
the loc_id as long as the object is somehow associated with a
file. Internally, H5G_loc() was modified to return an
H5G_entry_t* instead of an H5G_t* so it's more general.
Among other things, this allows one to retrieve information
about an object like a named type or dataset without knowing
the name of the type or dataset:
int
get_nlinks (hid_t obj)
{
H5G_stat_t sb;
if (H5Gstat(obj, ".", TRUE, &sb)<0) return -1;
return sb.nlink;
}
./test/gheap.c
./test/istore.c
These files needed a couple of changes because they call some
of the internal functions whose H5G_t arguments changed to
H5G_entry_t.
./src/H5A.c
Got rid of all the switch statements for getting symbol table
entries for varous objects and replaced them with a call to
H5G_loc() allowing attributes to automatically apply to any
type of object that belongs to a file.
./test/Makefile.in
Moved the ragged array tests from the normal list of tests to
the `make timings' target.
./test/ragged.c
Added rewrite tests -- rewrite the rows of a dataset changing
the number of rows and the length of each row.
./test/mtime.c
Added a test that checks that H5Gstat() can be called with a
dataset as the first argument.
./src/H5S.c
Added #ifdef HAVE_PARALLEL around code to check for the
HDF5_MPI_OPT_TYPES environment variable because the global
variable that gets set is #ifdef'd.
./bin/release
bzip2 uses .bz2 as the file extension.
----------------------
./MANIFEST
./src/H5R.c [NEW]
./src/H5Rprivate.h [NEW]
./src/H5Rpublic.h [NEW]
./src/Makefile.in
./src/hdf5.h
./test/ragged.c [NEW]
Preliminary support for 2d ragged arrays for Mark Miller and
Jim Reus. Not fully implemented yet. The test is not actually
part of `make test' because we still have some memory problems.
./src/H5E.c
./src/H5Epublic.h
Added H5E_RAGGED as a major error number.
./bin/release
Checks the MANIFEST file against `svf ls' on systems that have
it.
./bin/trace
Fixed a bug that caused arguments of type `void *x[]' to not
be handled.
./src/H5.c
Removed unused variables and changed a couple types to
fix compiler warnings.
Added tracing support for ragged array object ID's and arrays
of pointers.
./src/H5D.c
H5Dcreate() will complain if either of the property lists are
invalid (instead of using the default).
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Dprivate.h
Split H5Dget_space() into an API and internal function so it
can be called from the new ragged array layer.
./src/H5Fistore.c
Fixed warnings about unsigned vs. signed comparisons.
./src/H5Flow.c
Fixed a warning about a variable being shadowed in the MPI-IO
stuff.
./src/H5Iprivate.h
./src/H5Ipublic.h
Added the H5_RAGGED atom group.
./src/H5Shyper.c
Fixed some freeing-free-memory errors that resulted when
certain arrays were freed but the pointers were left in the
data structures. I simply set the pointers to null after they
were freed.
./src/H5Sprivate.h
./src/H5Sselect.c
Split the H5Sselect_hyperslab() function into an API and a
private function so it could be called from the ragged array
layer.
Added H5S_SEL_ERROR and H5S_SEL_N to the switch statements to
get rid or compiler warnings.
./src/H5Tconv.c
Removed a misleading comment.
./test/bittests.c
Fixed a warning about a printf().
./test/cmpd_dset.c
Fixed warnings about unused variables because of test #11
being commented out.
./bin/trace
Shortened the right margin for the output to allow room for
the `);' at the end of the TRACE() macros.
----------------------
./src/H5Fistore.c
Fixed a bug that caused the wrong number of chunk offsets to
be read or written from the file.
./src/H5Z.c
Fixed a memory bug.
./test/dtypes.c
Removed redundant tests.
./bin/snapshot
Removed Perl code from a shell script. Oops :-)

Fixed a typo in the Irix5.3 code.
./src/H5S.c
Fixed a memory leak.
./src/H5Shyper.c
Fixed a bad call to malloc() that didn't allocate enough
memory. Reordered a comparison to eliminate an array bounds
read error.
----------------------
./MANIFEST
./src/H5Ssimp.c [REMOVED]
./src/Makefile.in
Removed H5Ssimp.c since it was no longer used.
./bin/snapshot
Fixed a few minor things to make it work better.
./src/H5D.c
Cleaned up H5D_read() and H5D_write() by combining some code
in each. Added timing calls around the data space calls when
H5S_DEBUG is defined.
./src/H5S.c
./src/H5Sall.c
./src/H5Shyper.c
./src/H5Spoint.c
./src/H5Sprivate.h
Changed H5S_find() so it returns a table entry again instead
of copying the data into a caller-supplied buffer. This
allows the timers to be stored in the table and updated by the
caller. Added H5S_register() to register new table entries
and added entry creation to all the H5S selection
methods. Also changed lots of global functions to static
functions.
./src/H5Fistore.c
Fixed a memory bug in the raw data cache.
----------------------
./doc/html/Datatypes.html
./doc/html/H5.format.html
./src/H5.c
./src/H5Odtype.c
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tconv.c
./src/H5Tpkg.h
./src/H5Tpublic.h
./test/dtypes.c
Changed the values of the H5T_str_t type in order to make a
distinction between C's null terminated strings and strings
which are not null terminated.
The string character set and padding method are saved to the
hdf5 file instead of using defaults.
Added conversion function from one fixed-length string type
to another.
./test/chunk.c
Fixed to work with new filter API
----------------------
./bin/release
Added ./Makefile to the distribution again -- it got lost in
the changes last week although it isn't all that important a
file since it gets clobbered by configure anyway.
./bin/trace
./doc/html/Filters.html
./doc/html/H5.format.html

./src/H5Z.c
./src/H5Zprivate.h
./src/H5Zpublic.h
./src/hdf5.h
./test/dsets.c
./tools/h5ls.c
Added the data filter pipeline, a generalization of the
compression stuff which allows things like checksums,
encryption, compression, performance monitoring, etc. See
./doc/html/Filters.html for details -- it replaces the
Compression.html doc.
./src/H5T.c
Cleaned up debugging output.
./config/linux
Added checks for egcs and pgcc and changed optimization flags
for the compilers.
./src/H5G.c
./tools/h5dump.c
Fixed compiler warnings in these files and others.
./configure.in
./src/H5private.h
./test/mtime.c
Added a check for difftime() and defined HDdifftime() to do
something else on systems that don't have difftime().
Fixed a bug that caused `h5vers -i' to fail with a usage
message. The new behavior is the same as `h5vers -i release'
which increments the release number.
./bin/snapshot
A shell script intended to be run nightly from cron which
compares the current version of hdf5 against the previous
version. If there are differences it creates a tar file in an
ftp directory, increments the hdf5 release number, and commits
the changes back into the cvs repository. The name of the ftp
directory in which to place the release can be given on the
command line (default /hdf3/ftp/pub/outgoing/hdf5/snapshots).
The CVSROOT environment variable must be set.
Simplified greatly. When run from the top of the hdf5 source
tree with no arguments a new tar file is created in the
`releases' directory. When given one or more of the words
`tar', `compress', `gzip', or `bzip2' each type of archive is
created. The name of the releases directory can be changed
with the `-d DIR' switch.
----------------------
./tools/h5ls.c
If the dataset is of type H5T_NATIVE_CHAR then we print the
value as a string. This is temporary -- I plan to add better
control of this later but needed something now for debugging.
./src/H5Fistore.c
Squashed a bug in the chunk caching code that caused the wrong
chunk to be returned.
./bin/trace
./src/H5.c
Added support for printing values of array arguments when the
size of the array is supplied by some previous argument. You
must declare the argument as an array in order for the
automatic tracing stuff to work. For instance, the third
argument of H5Pset_chunk() is an array whose size is
determined by the second argument `ndims'. Here's how you
should declare it:
herr_t
H5Pset_chunk(hid_t plist_id, intn rank, hsize_t dims[/*rank*/])
The comment inside the `[]' is the name of some previous
integer argument (int, unsigned, size_t, ssize_t, hsize_t,
hssize_t). The trace output will look something like:
H5Pset_chunk(plist=1234567, rank=2, dims=0x112233 {11, 22})
Changed tracing so that data types are printed out
symbolically when possible.
Changed tracing so data type initializations are not printed.
This used to be confusing because lots of H5Tcopy() and
H5Tregister...() calls showed up before the applications first
explicit API call.
./src/H5Ipublic.h
Changed the file atom group from zero to one so printing of
atoms during tracing is more consistent -- they're all big
numbers now.
./src/H5A.c
./src/H5E.c
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5G.c
./src/H5Sselect.c
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5TB.c
./src/H5Z.c
Accidently modified these when working on the tracing, but
nothing should have changed.
./src/H5P.c
Changed the definition of H5Pset_chunk() for tracing.
./src/H5S.c
./src/H5Spublic.h
Changed the definitions of H5Sset_extent_simple() and
H5Screate_simple() for tracing. Changed the FUNC_ENTER() name
for H5Screate_simple() so tracing shows the correct name.
----------------------
./bin/release
The archive names have only three parts to a version number.
Instead of `hdf5-1.2.3d.tar.gz' they will be named like
`hdf5-1.2.3.tar.gz'.
./src/H5public.h
./src/H5.c
Dropped the patch level from the version number. The version
number is now a major number, a minor number, and a release
number.
./doc/html/Version.html
Updated to get rid of patch numbers.
./tools/h5repart.c
Added a `-V' flag like for `h5ls' that prints the version number.
----------------------
./src/H5Flow.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
./src/H5Fsplit.c
Changed the allocation size request from `size_t' to `hsize_t'
because it was overflowing for the `big' test.
./src/H5detect.c
If `long double' and `double' are the same size then we define
H5T_NATIVE_LDOUBLE to be the same as H5T_NATIVE_DOUBLE.
Similarly for `long' vs. `long long' and `unsigned long' vs.
`unsigned long long'.
./test/Makefile.in
Added `big' to the list of tests to normally run.
./test/big.c
Added a check to see if the file system supports holes and if
it doesn't then the test is skipped.
./RELEASE
Added a couple minor details details about API tracing and
symbolic links.
./src/H5public.h
Added comments about the use of hbool_t. Fixed a comment
spelling error.
./test/testhdf5.h
Changed the way the version number is printed. The old method
was `hdf5-1.2.3d' and the new method is `hdf5 version 1.2
release 3'
./tools/h5ls.c
Only prints the max dimension if it differs from the current
dimension or if verbose mode is enabled. Added switches `-?',
`-h', and `--help' to print a usage message. Added switches
`-v' and `--verbose' to generate more verbose output. Added
switches `-V' and `--version' to print the version number and
exit. The version number is printed like: This is h5ls
version 1.0 release 24'
./bin/h5vers [NEW]
This script prints, sets, and/or increments the hdf5 version
number. It can be run from the top directory or any of the
child directories like src, tools, test, etc. Some examples:
$ h5vers # Display current version
1.0.24
$ h5vers -v
version 1.0 release 24 # Display current version.
$ h5vers -s 5.2.8 # Set version and display
5.2.8
$ h5vers -s 2.1
2.1.0
$ h5vers -s hdf5-1.0.24a.tar.bz2
1.0.24
$ h5vers -s 'version 2.0 release 8'
2.0.8
$ h5vers -s 'junk 22 junk 33 more junk 66 and 99 junk'
33.66.99
$ h5vers -i major # Increment from 1.0.24
2.0.0
$ h5vers -i minor # Increment from 1.0.24
1.1.0
$ h5vers -i release # Increment from 1.0.24
1.0.25
$ h5vers ~/hdf5/src/H5public.h # Use an alternate file
1.0.24
./bin/checkapi [NEW]
Run from the src directory with arguments H5[A-Z]*.c and it
will print the locations of each place where an API function
was called from within the library. Use it as the compile or
grep command under Emacs and you can C-x ` through the list.
./bin/debug-ohdr [NEW]
Keeps track of H5O_open() and H5O_close() debugging messages
and lists the file addresses of the object headers that are
opened but never closed. You must enable the `o' debugging at
configuration time and pipe stderr into this script.
./bin/errors
Added a note to indicate that this script no longer works
because of changes in the HRETURN_ERROR() and HGOTO_ERROR()
macros.
./bin/iostats [NEW]
Watches output from the Linux strace program and accumulates
statistics about low-level access to an hdf5 file. The output
is a list of 2d data points which can be plotted by gnuplot to
show file seeking behavior.
./MANIFEST
Added new files.
----------------------
./README
./bin/release
The first line of the README file is updated automatically
by the `release' script to associate a date with a release
number. For example:
This is hdf5-1.0.9a released on 1998-06-09 18:00 UTC
Please refer to the INSTALL file for installation instructions.
./src/H5public.h
Release number incremented. This happens automatically now if
you run the `release' script in `-batch' mode. I'll stop
documenting changes to this file unless they're something
other than a release number change.
./MANIFEST
Added Elena's new files.
----------------------
./MANIFEST
Alphabetized. `d' comes before `e' :-)
./bin/release
Added the `-batch' option which causes the script to not ask
questions and to automatically update the minor version
number and set the patch level back to `a'. This is intended
to be used for the daily snapshots:
#! /bin/sh
set -e
cd ~/hdf5
make distclean
make test
bin/release -batch tar compress gzip bzip2
mv ./releases/* /repository
./src/H5Z.c
Removed warnings about unused variables when the zlib.h header
file is present but libz.a isn't.
./INSTALL
./configure.in
./doc/html/tracing.html
Made API tracing the default (you still need to define the
HDF5_TRACE environment variable to get results) and change the
name from `--disable-tracing' to `--disable-trace' to make it
consistent with the other switches.
Changed `site config file' to `host config file' to match the
documentation.
./doc/html/H5.user.html
Added a reference to the `tracing.html' file.
----------------------
./bin/trace
./src/H5.c
Added tracing support for H5S_seloper_t and H5S_class_t.
./src/H5Sselect.c
./src/H5S.c
Added tracing statements that weren't inserted previously
because of formatting problems.
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tconv.c
./src/H5Tpkg.h
./src/H5Tprivate.h
./src/H5Tpublic.h
./test/cmpd_dset.c
Added H5Tinsert_array() for inserting an array member into a
compound data type. Added support to the struct conversion
function for member arrays. The index permutation is not
supported yet in the conversion (source and destination must
have the same permutations).
----------------------
./bin/trace
./src/H5.c
./src/H5private.h
./src/H5A.c
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5G.c
./src/H5P.c
./src/H5Pprivate.h
./src/H5S.c
./src/H5T.c
Output-only arguments have their addresses printed during
tracing and added symbolic output for the H5F_driver_t
arguments. That's another reason that we should be careful to
add `/*out*/' after arguments that are output-only and
`/*in,out*/' after arguments that are used for both input and
output values.
No internal function calls H5Pget_class() anymore.
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tconv.c
./src/H5Tpkg.h
./src/H5Tpublic.h
Added H5Tget_overflow() and H5Tset_overflow() so the
application can query or set a function that will be called
whenever an overflow occurs. Implemented as documented in
previous e-mail except the overflow handler gets two buffers:
one that contains the source value and one to receive the
optional destination value.
./test/dtypes.c
Tests overflow handler.
./src/H5.c
We have to declare fdopen() because I'm getting errors when
compiling on Irix64 even though we include <stdio.h> as
documented in the fdopen() man page.
----------------------
./src/H5T.c
Prints statistics for no-op conversions also.
For now, hardware floating point conversions may or may not
raise SIGFPE depending on the hardware, operating system,
etc. Software conversions never raise SIGFPE and use +Inf or
-Inf for overflow.
./test/dtypes.c
Catches SIGFPE and causes the test to be skipped. Better test
for NaN.
./config/irix5.3
Removed the -U_POSIX_SOURCE because it was removed from the
main makefiles.
./bin/trace
./src/H5S.c
Fixed a typo that prevented tracing info from being added to
new API functions.
----------------------
./html/tracing.html NEW
This entire update is to make it possible for the library to
print the name, arguments, and return value of every API call
without requiring any extra work from developers or app
programmers. This file describes how this all works.
./configure.in
Added the `--enable-tracing' switch. If you use it then the
library will include code to print API function names,
argument names and values, and function return values.
However, you must then turn on the tracing by setting the
HDF5_TRACE environment variable to a file descriptor number.
The default is `--disable-tracing' since enabling it causes a
slight increase in library size and a slowdown resulting from
an extra function call for each API function call (I couldn't
even measure the slowdown :-)
./bin/trace NEW
A perl script that synchronizes the H5TRACE() macro calls in
the *.c files with the function return type and formal
argument names and types. If you use GNU make and gcc then
this will be done automatically, otherwise just invoke this
script with the names of one or more .c files. You could do
it by hand to, but encoding argument types is a little tricky
at first.
./config/commence.in
Added the $(TRACE) macro, which defaults to the no-op.
Added -D_POSIX_SOURCE to the compiler command line.
./src/Makefile.in
Override the default for $(TRACE).
./config/depend.in
Automatically calls $(TRACE) to synchronize the H5TRACE()
macros in any source file that changed. As with makefile
dependencies, one way to force synchronization of all files is
to remove the `.depend' file.
./MANIFEST
Added new files.
./src/H5Eprivate.h
Modified HRETURN_ERROR() and HRETURN() for tracing.
./src/H5.c
./src/H5private.h
This is where the real tracing work really happens, in
H5_trace().
./src/H5A.c
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5G.c
./src/H5P.c
./src/H5S.c
./src/H5Z.c
Added H5TRACE() calls to all API functions. You don't really
need these changes if you don't want to merge your stuff
because they can be generated automatically by going to the
hdf5/src directory and saying ../bin/trace *.c
./src/H5T.c
Added H5TRACE() calls. Other stuff below.
./src/H5E.c
./src/H5Epublic.h
Added H5TRACE() calls. Created a type H5E_auto_t for the
`func' argument of H5Eset_auto() and H5Eget_auto() to make
those arguments easier to parse for tracing. It should also
make it clearer for users that don't know how to read
complicated ANSI data types.
./src/H5F.c
Added H5TRACE() calls. Changed a couple `uintn' argument
types in API functions to `unsigned int' since `uintn' part of
the API. Changed a few "can't" and "cant" error messages to
"unable to".
./src/H5Ipublic.h
Removed H5_DIRECTORY from the H5I_group_t enum. It wasn't
used anywhere.
./src/H5Tconv.c
Removed an unused label.
./src/H5Fistore.c
./src/H5Oattr.c
./src/H5Odtype.c
./src/H5T.c
./test/dsets.c
./test/dtypes.c
Fixed a warning about a variable possibly used before it's
initialized. Added __unused__ to turn off some unused
argument warnings that pop up when debugging is turned off and
optimizations are turned on.
