Couple quick configure cleanups
Description:
- Made a few AM_LDFLAGS assignments a bit safer.
- Regenerated a couple Makefile.in's via bin/reconfigure to address
some typo-fixes that didn't propagate in my last check-in.
Tested:
- h5committest
- Also, I suspect this fix will address a failure on Sandia's clogin2
machine, but Albert currently has no password to gain access, so I have
only minimal logs of the failure and no way to test it there. I'll
just let the automated tests there determine if indeed I'm right.
CFLAGS overhaul
Description:
Modified the way configure handles CFLAGS.
(note: all changes also apply to FCFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, and LDFLAGS).
1. The configure process will now always preserve a user's CFLAGS
environment variable setup. Any additional flags necessary for compilation
added at configure time will be passed into the Makefiles as AM_CFLAGS,
which is an automake construct to be used in addition to CFLAGS.
This will allow a user to have the final say, as CFLAGS will always appear
later in the compile line than AM_CFLAGS. Additionally, setting CFLAGS
during make will no longer completely erase all flags set by configure,
since they're maintained in AM_CFLAGS.
2. Additionally, where possible, flags previously being assigned directly
into CFLAGS (and thus propagating into h5cc) have now been redirected into
H5_CFLAGS, so they're used ONLY for compiling hdf5, and not embedded into
the h5cc wrapper script as well.
*Note that H5_CFLAGS ultimately is assigned into AM_CFLAGS for use in the
Makefiles. Complete description of changes and build process will be
included in a Configure Document that Elena and I are working on.
3. Removed unsupported config files. This includes:
config/dec-osf*
config/hpux11.00
config/irix5.x
config/powerpc-ibm-aix4.x
config/rs6000-ibm-aix5.x
config/unicos*
4. Modified configure summary to display additional values. Specifically,
appropriate AM_* variables are being shown, as well as H5_FCFLAGS and
H5_CXXFLAGS, which were for some reason not already present.
Tested:
- H5committest
- Tested on all THG / NCSA machines, using several combinations of the more
prominent configure options (c++, fortran, szip, threadsafe, parallel,
et cetera). (Thanks to Quincey for rysnc testing setup!)
- With regards to new automated testing, anything *necessary* for
compilation will be caught by the daily tests as it stands now. (i.e.,
if LDFLAGS is not properly set when szip is used, linking will fail).
Additionally, with regards to which flags get into h5cc, if any
*necessary* flags have been improperly removed, then daily tests should
fail during make installcheck. Additional machine-specific desired
behaviors and/or checks may have to be set up separately within the
daily tests, so this is something to work on.
Bring changes from file free space branch back to the trunk. *yay!*

Configure Fix
Description:
Modified configure to set FC and CXX to "no" when fortran and c++ are
not being compiled, respectively. This will prevent configure from running
some checks on these compilers when they are not being used.
This fixes a problem that was occuring when FC and/or CXX are set to
a nonexistant or invalid compiler. Even if the languages were disabled,
a libtool test would fail, thus preventing libtool from properly linking
any libraries, yet configure would not flag an error message due to this
because the languages were disabled.
Tested:
- h5committest (jam, smirom, linew)
- manually eyeballed configure output and logfile.
Add new tests (tcheck_version, testcheck_version.sh) to verify H5check_version()
does issue warnings and abort accordingly.
Tests:
H5committed tested plus jam serial tested.
Stage 2 implementation of embedded library information feature.
H5.c: added code to print the embedded library information when there is
a library versions mis-match occurs. This ensures the library information
string is included in the executable.
Also modifies the code so that the Library mismatch warning string is
included only once in the executable.
H5private.h:
Added a global reference to the libinfo string variable to prepare
for possible stage 3 implementation of a public API.
test/testlibinfo.sh.in:
A new test added to verify the library information is indeed included
in the executables.
configure.in:
configure:
Added entry to auto-generate test/testlibinfo.sh.
H5detect.c:
Modified the libhdf5settings generating code to allow it to insert the
strings to a file other than stdout. This maybe needed in stage 3
implementation.
MANIFEST:
updated with the newly added file of testlibinfo.sh.in.
Tested:
h5committest passed. Additional tests:
jam serial; jam --disable-embedded-libinfo; jam --disable-shared. All passed.
Add warning to configure
Description:
Patched up the configure script to issue a warning when the user
has supplied the --enable-static-exec flag on a system that libtool
indicates does not support the -static linker flag.
Tested:
jam, smirom, linew, liberty.
configure.in. The Pathscale compiler on Sandia's Linux machine misinterprets the values of
unsigned long as negative during the conversion to float, when the first bit of unsigned long
is on.
Tested on jam. Need to test it on Sandia's machine.
Updating autotools
Description:
Installed new autotools and used them to reconfigure HDF5.
- Automake upgraded to 1.11
- Autoconf upgraded to 2.64
- bin/reconfigure script edited to use new versions (on jam), and
run to generate new configure script and Makefile.in's.
- configure.in script edited to add "_cv_" to all AC_CACHE_VAL strings
(in order to comply with new autoconf standard).
Tested:
Tested on machines jam, smirom, liberty, linew.
Tested w/ features c++, fortran, parallel.
Tested w/ compilers gcc, pgcc, icc.
Further testing via Daily Tests should catch any other outliers. Upon
passing DT's, I'll propogate the new tools into 1.8, hdf4, et cetera.
Break out the configure check for fseeko & ftello from lseek64/fseek64/
ftruncate64, since the check for the latter routines is not a valid check for
the former routines.

Bring r16846 from revise_chunks branch back to trunk:
Fix broken (for how long?) H5_ASSIGN_OVERFLOW macro to actually detect
overflows during assignments, along with several errors it [now] detected.
Cleaned up a fix minor warnings and/or pieces of code also.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.3 (duty) in debug mode
(h5committest not needed - multi-platform test performed on branch)
Embed the content of libhdf5.settings into the hdf5 executables so that an
"orphaned" executables can display (via the Unix strings command, for example)
the library settings used to build the executables.
This is a prototype implementation. Much improvement is needed.
configure.in:
Added the --disable-embedded-libinfo option to disable this feature.
configure:
src/H5config.h.in:
Generated by autotools like automake.
src/H5detect.c:
Implement insert_libhdf5_settings() to insert the contents of
libhdf5.settings into the library as an extern string variable so that it
is included in all HDF5 executable. Much improvement is needed.
fortran/src/Makefile.in:
Auto-generated by bin/reconfigure. (i.e., I did make any changes to cause
its direct regeneration).
Tested:
Jam serial, using default and --disable-embedded-libinfo, configure options.
Bug Fix
Description:
Removing the code from configure which strips the '-g' flag from CFLAGS
when in production mode. The current default CFLAGS in production mode
does not include '-g', as intended, but we should allow users to
override this and enable '-g' by setting the CFLAGS environment variable
if desired. Note that this applies to FCFLAGS and CXXFLAGS as well.
Tested:
kagiso, linew, liberty
the way h5ls prints types, it starts searching for NATIVE types first. One solution would be h5ls not to detect these native types, using for example the same print datatype function that h5dump does, that would make the output look the same on all platforms ("32-bit little-endian integer" would be printed instead). Drawback, this "native" information would not be available. Other solution is to have not one but 2 expected outputs and make the shell script detect the endianess and compare with one output or other
tested: h5committest
Bring r16305 back from revise_chunks branch:
Add detection of C99 "designated initializers" to configure script and
use new H5_HAVE_C99_DESIGNATED_INITIALIZER macro to conditionally compile
default layout variables in src/H5Pdcpl.c
Also, minor code cleanups, etc.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.3 (duty) in debug mode
(Other platforms tested on branch)
Bug Fix
Description:
Resolved issues with broken sanity checks that were failing when the 'b2'
debugging package was enabled (v2 b-tree debugging):
- Fixed outdated assertions that would not compile. They now compile
and function correctly.
- Removed too far outdated assertions that would require too much
unnecessary refactoring of code in order to satisfy their
initial purpose.
- Re-enabled b2 debugging package when "--enable-debug=all" is
specified on the configure line.
Tested:
jam, smirom, linew
Description: Adding the SZIP path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH within configure was
inadvertently blowing away anything already in LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This
fixes that, which solves, among other things, the problem where
configure failed to learn how to print 'long long' on cobalt.
Tested: full make check install: kagiso, smirom
configure / make / h5ls test only : cobalt, linew
th user's definition of H5_USE_16_API. The H5_USE_16_API_DEFAULT is defined through
configure with the flag --with-default-api-version=v16.
Tested with h5committest.
Description:
- Remove need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH when using shared szip library.
- Libtool 2.2.6a is now used to generate libraries.
- 'make check install' dependency bug is fixed, and should no longer
break the build.
- removed hard coding of shell in config/commence.am, as this causes
problems on Solaris with the new version of libtool.
- RELEASE.txt with appropriate changes.
Tested:
- kagiso, smirom, linew (merged from 1.8, pretty quick tests)
Fix various problems with a the core & sec2 VFDs.
Improve the h5_get_file_size() routine to handle files created with
VFDs that use multiple files.

Description: Added configure test to see if pointer alignment restrictions are enforced (as in dereferencing an unaligned pointer causes an error). Added code in H5Tvlen.c to avoid dereferencing unaligned pointers, conditionally compiled based on the configure test. Added test case in dtypes.c which would previously cause such machines to fail.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew (h5committest); linew64
Description:
In some of the new H5EA* code, many new C99 features are being used. Most of them are portable to all compilers, but the __func__ keyword in particular isn't supported in Visual Studio on Windows. Instead, Windows defines the __FUNCTION__ keyword, which can be used as a direct substitute.
We now check for the __func__ keyword during configure and define the feature flag H5_HAVE_C99_FUNC. There was previously a check for __FUNCTION__, and the feature flags H5_HAVE_FUNCTION. In H5EApkg.h, we check for the presents of each of these in order to see which to use. If neither are avaiable, fail.
Tested:
h5committest (kagiso, smirom, linew)
Temporary removed b2 from the --enable-debug=all list so that this option
will pass. "configure --help" lists the --enable-debug=all and users tend
to use it and end up with compile failures in the b2 debug code. Since this
bug will not be fixed soon, this is a temporary fix to let the configure and
build work.
Tested:
h5committest plus "--enable-debu=all" test in kagiso.
Moved AM_CONDITIONAL([FORTRAN_HAVE_SIZEOF]....) outside of Fortran conditional loop so that the value gets registered regardless of whether Fortran is enabled.
Added a test program to determine if -r8 or the default of REAL is DOUBLE PRECISION. Sets the variable FORTRAN_DEFAULT_REALisDBLE_F to true if default REAL is DOUBLE PRECISION.
Description: While '-Wl,-rpath' information was being removed from compile
lines when using --disable-sharedlib-rpath, some information
was still hidden in another variable tht never got reset and
thus snuck into the executables. This fix should take care of
that issue.
Tested: kagiso, smirom
bug fix.
Description:
Removed a few debug print statments that was left in by mistake.
Removed initialization for macro system INSTRUMENT to match how it
behaves before.
Tested platforms:
h5committested (kagiso, smirom and linew). It failed in fortran
test in smirom but I believed that was not caused by my changes
in configure.in.
Description: The macro H5_HAVE_WINDOW_PATH is now defined to 1 only when
MinGW is in use. This is needed to fix the "links" test, and
the external link feature in the library.
Tested: kagiso
Description: The configure option --disable-sharedlib-rpath will disable
embedding of the '-Wl,-rpath' information into executables
when shared libraries are produced.
Tested: kagiso
Improvement.
Description:
src/libhdf5.settings was the initial configure summary and is installed.
Then configure is changed to dump a summary of the configure settings to
the output and also append it to src/libhdf5.settings. That created
two different output formats and duplicated information. This is the
initial attempt to clean up this confusion and unify the output format.
It is decided to use the src/libhdf5.settings template as the unified means.
This requires more macros symbols be defined. The following symbols are
all related to generating the src/libhdf5.settings file.
AC_SUBST(EXTERNAL_FILTERS)
AC_SUBST(MPE) MPE=no
AC_SUBST(STATIC_EXEC) STATIC_EXEC=no
AC_SUBST(HDF_FORTRAN) HDF_FORTRAN=no
AC_SUBST(FC) HDF_FORTRAN=no
AC_SUBST(HDF_CXX) HDF_CXX=no
AC_SUBST(CXX) HDF_CXX=no
AC_SUBST(HDF5_HL) HDF5_HL=yes
AC_SUBST(GPFS) GPFS=no
AC_SUBST(LINUX_LFS) LINUX_LFS=no
AC_SUBST(INSTRUMENT) INSTRUMENT=no
AC_SUBST(CODESTACK) CODESTACK=no
AC_SUBST(HAVE_DMALLOC) HAVE_DMALLOC=no
AC_SUBST(DIRECT_VFD) DIRECT_VFD=no
AC_SUBST(THREADSAFE) THREADSAFE=no
AC_SUBST(STATIC_SHARED)
AC_SUBST(enable_shared)
AC_SUBST(enable_static)
AC_SUBST(UNAME_INFO) UNAME_INFO=`uname -a`
The src/libhdf5.settings.in has CONDITIONAL's added to it too. The
untrue conditions turned into a "#" and these lines are cleaned by the
post processing script.
Platform tested:
h5committest on kagiso, smirom and linew.
Description: Typo in the configure.in script. CC_VERSION should be set using
CC_NOFLAGS, but is currently using CC_NOFLAG, which does not exist.
Tested: kagiso (configure issue)
Description: Applying update to autotools that was applied to 1.8 a couple
of weeks ago to the trunk.
Updated bin/reconfigure script to reflect the new versions of
libtool and automake in the /home1/packages/ directory.
Rearranged configure.in script. When using libtool 2.2.2, the
libtool script doesn't generate until later in the configuration
process, so I had to move a test that parsed through the libtool
script to a point after where it was actually being generated.
Ran libtoolize on the project, and ran bin/reconfigure to
regenerate configure and Makefile.in's throughout.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew (h5committest)
The development branch was changed to default enable-production for the
v1.8 release but had not switched back to default development mode.
Solution:
Changed it back to --disable-production (aka development) as the default.
Also ran bin/reconfigure to update configure.
Tested:
Smirom only. No h5committest since the change is trivial and if it works
at smirom, it should work everywhere else.
Description:
Previously, we created a patch for Cygwin to skip checking for the timezone variable. We made this change in both the trunk and hdf5_1_8 branch. However, in the branch version, we seemed to have used wrong quotes in our check ('uname' rather than `uname`). This corrects the typo
Tested:
Cygwin on WinXP
Description:
This is the same patch that Mike McGreevy helped me with on the 1.8 branch. The latest cygwin DLL has trouble with the global timezone variable. Now in configure, we target CYGWIN with a case statement, and avoid the problem.
Tested:
Cygwin on WinXP
