Description: Removed support for SRB driver
Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure
to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files.
Platforms tested: heping and shanti
Misc. update: ran bin/chkmanifest on heping
Description: Split test/dtypes.c because it's so big. Moved all integer-integer,
floating-floating, integer-floating, floating-integer, derived integer, derived
floating conversion tests to a new test program, dt_atomic.c. The test remains
the same basically.
Platforms tested: fuss and h5committest
Misc. update: MANIFEST
New feature
Description:
Add first iteration of "segmented heap" code, which will be used to store
links in groups in a more flexible way than the previous "local heap" mechanism.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)
Feature - conditional compilation
Description:
SRB file driver and tests are now compiled only when SRB is enabled
(using --with-srb during configure).
Solution:
Added an automake conditional in configure.in, altered Makefiles.am in
src and test directories to depend on that conditional.
This should make a nice example for posterity to add conditionally
compiled sources.
Platforms tested:
heping (only configure change)
New feature
Description:
Add new "block tracker" data structure to library, for tracking blocks of
bytes in a file. Block trackers will be used to keep track of the blocks
belonging to the soon-to-be-implemented "segmented heap" which is designed to
replace the current local & global heaps (starting with the local heap).
Block trackers will also keep track of the free space in the segmented heap
and someday could be used to track the free space in the entire HDF5 file.
They are implemented as a small header of information to cache the state
of the blocks (max & min sizes of blocks tracked, etc.) and the records of
the blocks themselves are stored in a v2 B-tree.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)
h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Arabica exhibited strange errors when linker found wrong versions of
header files. This happened because include directories were
given to linker in the wrong order.
Solution:
Move include directories from AM_CFLAGS variable to INCLUDES
variable to put them before CPPFLAGS variable. Trust me, it works.
This bug may also have contributed to strange errors on other platforms
(kelgia?).
Platforms tested:
copper, sleipnir, arabica.
(h5dump broke while building on arabica, but this happened in
a clean checkout, too).
Bug fix (sorta)
Description:
Disable btree2 testing until Monday, when I can look into the failures
without a toddler on my lap. :-)
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Parallel builds were breaking in tools/lib
Solution:
talign didn't realize it depended on libh5tools.la because its
dependencies listed the full path (../../tools/lib/libh5tools.la).
Changed this, and made similar changes in a couple of other
directories.
This checkin should also add the --foreign flag to every Makefile.in
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (minor change)
New feature
Description:
Add basic code for new B-tree implementation. They don't do much yet,
aren't hooked up to anything yet and the format may change, but I'd like to
start getting them into the daily tests.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Too minor to require h5committest
Configuration feature
Description:
HDF5 now uses automake to generate Makefiles
Solution:
Makefile.in files are now generated from Makefile.am files.
To reconfigure (after chaning a Makefile.am or configure.in):
/bin/sh bin/reconfigure.sh
Platforms tested:
Many
