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
correctly. Also variable-length string array in a compound dataset.
Bug #1989.
Description:
Garbage values were displayed when h5diff compared variable-length
strings (or string array) in a compound type dataset.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (Mac32)

Add extra test cases for bug1975 h5diff - support recursive comparison on group when specified as an object.
Description:
Additional tests for combination of group recursive and --follow-symlinks
with multi-linked external links with several files (same name/strucure).
Tested:
jam, amani, heiwa
Add --exclude-path option
Description:
Specified path to an object will be excluded from comparing the two files or two groups. If group is specified all the member objects will be excluded.

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.
Tested:
jam, amani and linew
Enable tools lib to be built as a dll on windows. Added two get/set functions for progname and d_status.
Also add windows import/export declarations to functions.
Updated error_mesg() and warn_mesg() to remove progname argument and use get functions
Tested:
Windows, linux
Improve configure's large-file support control.
Description:
Modified configure to now attempt to add defines necessary for
supporting largefiles on all systems, instead of solely on linux. This
is in response to user requests to enable largefile support on Solaris
by default, as well as to give extra control on AIX (instead of just
jamming the necessary flag into the config files).
The old --enable-linux-lfs flag has been removed in favor of the
--enable-largefile flag (enabled by default), which can be used on all
platforms.
On systems where large files cannot be supported in this manner,
configure will report as such.
Tested:
h5committest
AIX (NCSA's blue_print machine)
duty, liberty, and linew.
Autotool Upgrade / Libtool Bug Fix
Description:
Updated autotools referenced in bin/reconfigure as follows:
Autoconf 2.64 --> Autoconf 2.65
Automake 1.11 --> Automake 1.11.1
Libtool 2.2.6a --> Libtool 2.2.6b-mcg
The referenced libtool version is a custom version of 2.2.6b. It
has been tweaked to fix a bug in libtool that occurs
when using PGI 10.0 compilers. A check incorrectly categorizes
the C++ compiler as version 1.0 instead of 10.0, and the link
line is subsequently set up incorrectly and fails to compile.
A patch has been made available and will be included in the next
release of libtool, but in the meantime I've applied the patch to a custom
installation as indicated above. This bin/reconfigure now references
the custom installation, and the resulting configure script will correctly
categorize the PGI 10.0 C++ compiler.
Ran bin/reconfigure to regenerate configure and makefiles.
Tested:
jam and amani with PGI 10.0 compilers.

Tested on Jam
Add test cases for h5diff check-in (svn revision #18164).
Description:
This test cases are for testing comparing through various link combinations
relate to bugzilla report 1754.
Also improved the test script to handle external link cases and
simplified to use single line instead of double for each test cases.
Tested on Jam
Add a feature to compare through links. Relate to bugzilla report 1754.
Description:
Currently, h5diff command only compares the name(path) of target object
not the actual data. With this feature, h5diff will go through the link(s)
and figure out the actual object at the end of the link and compare data
if exist. Internally we have hard-link, soft-link, external-link (as part
of user_defined-link). This feature will provide a user transparent
experience when comparing link objects as the user can specify any of
those 3 type of links to be compared in any combination.
Tested on Jam.
Additional fix relted to the fix of bug1672.
Description:
The fix of bug1672 caused some changes of output which required modifying
some test cases. After some discussion, restoring the changes of the test
cases was decided. After many experiments for the solution, this fix was
made so the code which improved performance can stay.
Tested on Jam.
The mixed use of RUNTEST (original) and RUNTESTS (new) caused
confusion. E.g., the timings in test/ was still using the old
$RUNTEST. It made more sense to use $RUNTEST which is used
by the dejagnu feature of automake. So, I changed all
$RUNTEST or $RUNTESTS to $RUNEXEC.
config/commence.am & config/conclude.am are the two files
that got changes. Also fixed an error in test/Makefile.am.
The rest are changed by bin/reconfigure.
Tested: h5committested.
Fix Bug1672 - Display garbage value on LE machine for BE data.
Description:
Casuing by calling diff_dataset twice when -r or no option was given.
Change to call it once which fix the problem.
It also improves the performance. (diffing time in half)
According further test, it also occurred on BE machine as well and it
seems occruing only with the BE data attached to Bugzilla.
Don't know how the file was created. Anyway this fix will prevent
from diffing with garbage values in similiar potential case.
Tested on:
linux32 (jam) , linux64 (almani), solaris (linew)
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.
