- HDFFV-5928 - GMQS: h5diff problem and improvement on comparsing the same objects
Description:
Fixed:
1) adding h5tools_is_obj_same() function to check if two given IDs or paths point to the same object. This function can be very useful for other tools and applications.
2) using h5tools_is_obj_same() at h5diff() and diff() in h5diff.c. If two paths point to the same object, there is no need to check the details of the object since we know there is no difference. The fix will increase the performance by skipping the content comparison. It also fixed the problem of reporting difference for some cases of comparing the same file, e.g. empty files or files with incomparable objects the same file.
Test update:
Updat prvious test cases (171, 172, 530) affected by this fix, so they
still perfrom originally intended testing without bypassing.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), cmake
General shared library improvements for CYGWIN / AIX
Description:
Shared libraries are disabled on both CYGWIN and AIX due
to inability to build them correctly. Part of the problem
in both of these situations is the lack of the libtool
flag -no-undefined, which tells libtool that all needed
symbols are defined at link time (a requirement on these
systems) and that it's okay to build shared libraries.
Another problem are lack of dependencies between wrapper
libraries and core C HDF5 library.
This patch addresses both of these by fixing configure to
add in -no-undefined flag for libtool during linking and
adds automake dependencies in the Makefile.am files.
After testing, both CYGWIN and AIX now generate shared
libraries, but there are still some test failures in each.
(cache_api, dt_arith, and testerror.sh on CYGWIN, and
fortran tests on AIX).
Even though the shared libraries are not quite perfect,
this is a general improvement to what we had before, so
I'm applying the patch anyways. Note that default behavior
of shared libraries on these systems being disabled has
NOT been changed and requires the use of the
--enable-unsupported to attempt to build them.
We will need to address the test failures in each
architecture prior to formally supporting shared
libraries on each.
Tested:
h5committested & CYGWIN tested (on bangan)
(AIX tested by Albert on bp-login2)
Add "silent make" mode configure option.
Description:
Automake 1.11 has a new option available that allows for a
silent make mode. This functionality needs to be explicitly
enabled in configure.in via the use of the automake macro
AM_SILENT_RULES, which is what this commit is adding.
This introduces a new configure option:
--{en|dis}able-silent-rules
This option is on by default, and simplies compile and link
line outputs when building the library. Disabling this option
will print full "verbose" output (i.e., full compile and
linking lines for each target).
Tested:
This was tested on jam & h5committested
- Revise shared Fortran library disabling scenarios in configure
- Improve configure output summary
Description:
Shared Fortran libraries are not supported on Mac, but were being
disabled by configure in a way that also forced the C libraries
to be static-only. This has been fixed, so now only shared Fortran
is disabled while shared C can remain.
This prompted two additional changes:
1. While working on the check that addresses whether or not
shared Fortran libraries are allowed, removed old and no
longer needed check(s) that disable shared Fortran
libraries with HP, Intel 8, PGI, and Absoft compilers.
(Essentially, Mac is the only situation in which Fortran
shared are disabled by configure.)
2. Having two different states of libraries (i.e. shared C
library with static-only Fortran library) was not apparent
in the configure summary, which labeled all libraries as
either shared and/or static. I've added lines to both the
C++ and Fortran output sections to list shared/static-ness
of these libraries specifically.
Additionally, I've made sure that the new --enable-unsupported
configure option correctly overrides configure if it tries to
disable a shared library.

Fixed Bug 2184 - GMQS: h5diff - incorrect calculation code for
--use-system-epsilon option
Description:
Merged from HDF5 1.8 branch r20369.
Fixed h5diff for --use-system-epsilon option: the calculation changed
from ( |a - b| / b ) to ( |a - b| ). This was decided for better
performance and was corrected only in HDF5 trunk, so 1.8 got updated.
Also comments for equal_XXX() function were updated correctly.
Also help page and RM got updated correctly.
Also add test cases for testing the differences w/wo the option.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE)
Fixed CHICAGO: Bug 2121 - h5diff - incorrect and lack of output for the
different set of attributes (different number and names)
Description:
This is related to previous checkin r20294.
Add help page update for verbose option level feature, which displays
useful information about attribute difference with -v1, --verbose=1 -v2
or --verbose=2 option.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Fixed CHICAGO: Bug 2121 - h5diff - incorrect and lack of output for the
different set of attributes (different number and names)
Description:
Previously h5diff compared attributes correctly only when two objects have
the same number of attributes and attribute names are identical.
This fix covers all other cases.
Also didn't display useful information about attribute difference.
This fixes both issues.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)

Bug 2089 - GMQS: h5diff segfault on a compound dataset with fixed length +
vlen string type order
Description:
This is fix for the segfault when h5diff compares a compound dataset with
combination of fixed length string types and vlen string types in certain
orders. Optimized vlariable length string handling codes. The fix is
referred from h5dump handling vlen strings.
For testing, several compound datasets were added with various combinations.
Previous failed cases:
- Vlen string, Fixed length string, Vlen string, Fixed length string
- Fixed length string, Fixed length string, Vlen string, Vlen string
- Fixed length string, Vlen string, Fixed length string, Vlen string
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Fixed h5diff to handle variable-length strings in a compound dataset

Corrected use/name of source folder aliases.
Duplicated FindMPI.cmake so that non-c++ compiler is found first (recommemded commands did not work).
Tested: local linux with mpich
Problem: some launching command like yod (and sometimes mpirun), do not pass
back the exit code of the executables back to the shell. It always returns 0
if it can launch the executable. This cause tests that expect non-zero exit
code to fail incorrectly.
Short term Solution:
Added the feature that if $RUNSERIAL_NOEXITCODE is defined, do not
test conditions that rely on non-zero exit code.
Tests:
dove-linux using RUNSERIAL=thgyod to see the failures and using
$RUNSERIAL_NOEXITCODE=yes to bypass the errors.
Also h5committested.
Rename '--follow-links' to '--follow-symlinks'
Description:
The '--follow-links' option is to follow symbolic links (soft and external).
Make the name more intuitive and specific to the feature.
