Solution: Support VAX float and double types with new byte order. There're some
details not yet included,
1. the alignment detection for VAX order in H5detect.c.
2. support for special values in library conversion functions.
3. the infinity for VAX in H5T_init_inf.
4. support for VAX types in printing hexadecimal format.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss.
New APIs to add for collective chunk IO
Description:
Three new APIs
H5Pset_dxpl_mpio_chunk_opt_ratio
H5Pset_dxpl_mpio_chunk_opt_num
H5Pset_dxpl_mpio_chunk_opt
for optional optimization choices from users.
Solution:
Haven't added tests yet, won't affect other parts of the library.
Will add tests after urgent investigations of memory leaking problems from NASA Aura team.
Platforms tested:
heping: both parallel and sequential
shanti
Misc. update:
Code checkpoint
Description:
The fractal heap code is reasonably stable and is passing all its
current tests, so checkpoint everything with CVS.
Also, add "statistics" module for v2 B-trees code, which is only a
stub right now.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Mac OSX (amazon)
Linux 2.4 (chicago)
Bug fix
Description:
Clean up a few code mis-matches that crept in during the last checkin.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5commitest
New feature
Description:
Update "power of two" macro and add "general" log2() routine.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
New feature
Description:
Add "variable-length" 32-bit encode/decode macros, matching the other
64-bit ones, for later use in the fractal heap code.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor for full h5committest
New features
Description:
Add "find node greater than or equal to key" and "remove first" operations
to skip lists.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Add the hl/fortran/examples & hl/tools directories to the list of
directories targeted by mostlyclean/clean/distclean.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Description: There was no macro name in ifdef statement
(it was commented out ;-))
Solution: Fixed the typo
Platforms tested: tested on heping with g++
Misc. update:
Description: I ran bin/chkmanifest BEFORE adding files to CVS. Therefore
script ignored all new files and reported success.
Solution: Added missing files and told myself to remember this next time.
Platforms tested: heping with bin/chkmanifest
Misc. update:
Description: By default on VMS system file cannot be opened twice; also
VMS has file versioning. This brakes some of our tests.
Solution:
Tests are commented out with H5_CANNOT_OPEN_TWICE and H5_HAVE_FILE_VERSIONS
that are defined in the vms/h5pubconf.h file only. This change cannot affect
any other platform.
Platforms tested: heping, VMS server
Misc. update:
Description: Made small changes to sec2 driver to reflect that VMS systems ino_t is 1dim array
of size 3; all changes are marked with H5_VMS variable.
Defined HDremove macro for VMS to remove multiple versions of the files.
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping, VMS server
Misc. update:
Description: defined H5_FC_FUNC_(name, NAME) for VMS since we cannot
run autoconf on that system
Solution: Used append methos to form the string; this may become the change
for all platforms after more testing
Platforms tested: heping, VMS server
Misc. update:
Description: insert method didn't work for VMS.
Solution: Used append methos to form the string; this may become the change
for all platforms after more testing
Platforms tested: heping, VMS server
Misc. update:
Setting appropriate macro during configuration.
Description:
We found special collective IO doesn't work in mpich 1.2.5 and 1.2.6.
Solution:
Use this script to detect this during configuration and set the correct macro.
Platforms tested:
heping,mir and copper
Misc. update:
Add new tests
Description:
Collective IO doesn't work for some platforms/mpio packages when more than
one process has no contributions to IO.
Solution:
1. Add a collective IO test to verify the correctness of the library when
more than one process has no contributions to IO.
2. Add the similar MPI-IO test in t_mpi to help us maintain in more platforms.
Platforms tested:
heping, mir, copper
