A second problem also discovered was an if statement that should have comapered lengths of a string actually was comapring addreeses. Once thatt was fixed, The "[" character could be used but broke other functionality. Consultation with tools team resulted in the creation of a "--no-subset" option to disable interpretation of "[" character as a subsetting compact-form. This also eliminated and cleaned up the code containing the plomatic if statement.
Tested: local linux and added test, CMake updated autotools test to be added next.
Fix for HDFFV-7836 h5diff: displays error stack message for comparing the two dangling symlink with follow-symlinks option
Description:
While ago, to improve performance, skipping same object checking
(h5tools_is_obj_same()) was added.
However the checking function doesn't understand about the dangling link and
caused the issue.
Since handling dangling link code section already implemented, move the
checking function after handling dangling-links to address the problem.
Test was added and tagged with jira#.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE cmake), Cmake (jam)
Fix for HDFFV-7840 h5repack: memory leak over one of the h5diff test file
Description:
Turned out that there were two causes of memory leaks.
1. for handling variable length string in attribute.
2. for handling compound type with non-reference members.
The first issue is fixed in copy_attr() which is updated to use h5tools_detect_vlen to take care of vlen string as well as vlen data.
The second is fixed in copy_refs_attr() of compound handling code.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE), Cmake (jam)
Fix for HDFFV-7838 h5ls: segfault for handling region reference in attribute with -v option
Description:
Segfault occurred when h5ls access region reference data in an attribute.
This didn't occurred when -v option was used.
The cause was "h5tool_format_t info;" struct variable members were accessed
without proper values were assigned (was NULL), so printf failed later in the code.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), cmake-Windows (32-LE)
HDFFV-7770 - h5diff segmentation fault on JPSS files
Description:
Fixed segfault over non-comparable attribute with different dimention or
rank, along with '-c' option to display details.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows, Cmake
Description:
H5Ocopy could get confused when copying a named datatype containing an
attribute which used that named datatype as its datatype. This happened
because H5Ocopy would recurse into the attribute's datatype before the object
the attribute was in was fully copied (i.e. before the "post-copy" pass).
Modified H5Ocopy to avoid recursing before the post-copy step in this case.
Required many changes, including to how non-committed shared messages are
copied.
Tested: jam, koala, heiwa (h5committest); durandal
Fortran wrappers.
Solutions: The calls were not needed and were removed from the C stubs h5open_c and h5close_c for the correspnding
Fortran subroutines h5open_f and h5close_f.
Platforms tested: jam with gcc and gfortran, PGI and Intel
koala with PGI and Intel
linew with the standard Sun compilers
HDFFV-7693 - h5diff produces different behavior between versions: 1.8.3 and 1.8.6
Description:
There were two issues on this.
One was not displaying all the comparable objects if non-comparable
object/attribute exist and compared before comparables ones. This issue
occurred after 1.8.4 release. This is the issue from user.
The other issue was not displaying all the comparable attributes,
if non-comparable object/attribute exist and compared ahead. This issue
were exist even before 1.8.4 release. So it's possible some attribute
comparison may have not displayed correctly in the past, if non-comparable
data were exist in common object.
Fixed h5diff to display all the comparable object and attribute regardless
of non-comparables.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Cmake (jam, Windows)
