Purpose:
Refix
Description:
Changed
if test -d $1; then
:
else
to
if test ! -d $1; then
since "test ! -d" should work on all platforms and is a much cleaner
solution than the original.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Feature Add
Description:
Added "install-example" and "install-all" to the Makefile system.
The behaviour of the "make install*" options:
make install - Installs binaries, libraries, include
files, and example programs.
make install-examples - Installs only the example programs.
The directories are:
${prefix}/doc/hdf5/examples/{c,c++,fortran}
make install-all - Install the binaries, libraries, include
files, example programs, and
documentation. The whole kit-n'-caboodle.
make uninstall-examples - Get rid of those example files (but not
the ${prefix}/doc/hdf5/examples/...
directories)
There's a new bin/ program which helps create directories which are
deeply nested called "mkdirs". It's a simple shell script.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Bug fix.
Description:
Did not update the expected strings for result of grand total test
time. Causing a false report of test failed to complete.
Solution:
Update the strings.
Platforms tested:
Eirene and modi4.
Bug fix
Description:
The previous coding using sed was not portable for all Unix
systems. Much easier to use 'cut' to parse the strings.
Platforms tested:
eirene
Bug fix
Description:
when a snaptest did not complete, it reported it as a failure
of the launching host, rather than the testing host.
Changed it to report the testing host.
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
On some SGI machines (or, rather, it was showing up there), the
/usr/ncsa/lib directory was being placed before the other directories
in the linker line. This was causing the linker to link in
alternative HDF5 libraries than the test library.
Solution:
Modified my previous hack so that it puts the $rpath macro at the
end, since those are the ones we're passing into the libtool function
(in the DYNAMIC_DIRS macro).
Platforms tested:
Paz
Feature
Description:
Changed some output format.
Improved the CHECK_RSH to better report the result when failed.
Platforms tested:
eirene with nosuch and shalom. (made sure failures do occur)
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The dependencies weren't being generated properly. What was
happening, if there was a "." in the path name to the source
directories, it would say, "oh! That matches anything. Dup-dee-do
I'll just mess everything up, then."
Solution:
Escape all occurences of "." with a "\." so that it will match an
actual "." instead of anything.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The way we were generating Dependencies and .depend files was broken.
If the $srcdir or other macros began with a ".", then it would match
anything and cause problems since it would then overwrite the
beginning of the header file's path.
Solution:
Wrote a Perl script which can handle this type of weirdness better.
It's only used when the environment is a GNU one with a GCC
compiler...
Platforms tested:
Linux
Feature
Description:
Added the feature that ALLHOSTS can be set via the file
allhostfile in the snapshot directory. This reduces the
need to modify runtest for hosts changes.
Platforms tested:
eirene (did dry runs).
Purpose:
Forward Port
Description:
Forward port of the hack fix applied to the 1.4 branch. This corrects
the previous hack by putting *'s in the pattern matching so that
they'd match the gseaborg machine correctly.
Platforms tested:
gseaborg
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The SP3 machine doesn't like the "-b nolibpath ..." flags, the same
as the pacific blue machine. I'm hoping that this will fix it.
Solution:
Adding the offending machine's name to the "Major Hack(tm)" we did
for the Pacific Blue machine.
update
Description:
Several files have been renamed or moved to a different location.
README => README.txt
RELEASE.txt => release_docs/RELEASE.txt
HISTORY.txt => release_docs/HISTORY.txt
Updated h5vers and release to reflect all these new names/locations.
Also made all uses the same beginning phases for the first line
of text in README.txt and RELEASE.txt as follows:
"HDF5 version ... "
Platforms tested:
eirene by running the bin/release and bin/h5vers -i.
Cosmetic adjustment
Description:
Changed Version information from just "HDF5 version ..."
to "HDF5 library version" since this is really about a
library implementation.
Platforms tested:
eirene (used "h5vers -s ..." to see the effect.)
new feature
Description:
Added feature to update RELEASE.txt with release information just
like what happens to README. Make a copy of RELEASE.txt to accompany
the tarball file(s).
Also moved the umask command up to cover all files created on the fly.
Platforms tested:
eirene.
Implemented the string version number stuff for Albert.
2001-05-09 16:21:37 Robb Matzke <matzke@llnl.gov>
* setvers: Adjust definition of H5_VERS_INFO, which should be a #define for
a string constant.
Bug Fix
Description:
For parallel compiles, it needed the libtest.so library and wasn't
finding it.
Solution:
Added the path to the library to the rpath in the ltmain.sh file.
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Bug Fix...
Description:
For the tools library, it needed to find the HDF5 library in the
`pwd`/../../src directory.
Solution:
Added `pwd`/../../src to the rpaths.
Platforms tested:
Modi4
(Final?) Bug Fix
Description:
Okay, for those of you following this saga:
Shared libraries weren't being found on the O2K system. Why not?
Well, turns out that libtool is dain bramaged. Instead of
creating executables for executables, it creates shell scripts.
These shell scripts actually recompile the code, relinking it
with the "correct" libraries. It's similar to when it goes to do
an install. It recompiles to the binary so that it picks up the
proper libraries. BUT! Libtool wasn't placing into the shell
scripts where the shared libraries it was looking for actually
were.
Solution:
I hacked up ltmain.sh so that it puts the required dynamic library
directories into the compile line when it creates the
shell-script/binaries.
Platforms tested:
Modi4...
Bug Fix
Description:
The fix I put in on Friday wasn't working properly.
Solution:
Changed some single quotes to double quotes so that the macros are
expanded and set "command_finalize" to the newest values I created.
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Bug Fix
Description:
The compiler on Modi4 (and possibly other machines) couldn't handle a
long string being passed in with the -Wl, flag.
Solution:
Wrote some script which separates the string being passed into
multiple flags with "-Wl,-rpath -Wl," before them.
Platforms tested:
Modi4
Improvement
Description:
The DIFF used to keep running after detecting significant code changes.
This was done in order to see all changes but no one seems to look
at the diff any more. So, let it end the DIFF cycle once it determines
there are enough differences for a new test.
Added "install install-doc uninstall uninstall-doc" to the test
cycle.
Platforms tested:
Eirene, gondolin, modi4
Update
Description:
Updated so that it's roughly consistent with the 1.3.5 release of
libtool. The only difference between the two is some sharedlibrary
path which Albert put in once a long time ago and it seems to
work...Trying not to break^Wfix what's not broken.
Platforms tested:
Linux (with diff)
adjustment
Description:
When gondolin failed the 1.5 test, it moved ahead for the 1.4 test.
The 1.5 test usually takes 1 hour to complete but runtest only waited
30 minutes for the 1.4 cvs update to complete. So, gondolin ended
up failing the 1.4 test too.
Solution:
Changed the wait time to 90 minutes.
Added echo statements showing it is waiting for some event. This
would help the human knowing it is waiting for something.
Added more comments about the algorithm of the waiting.
Platforms tested:
Gotta be right. :-)
new feature
Description:
Added a new option -nocvs for no cvs commands.
Added a locking mechanism to show CVS checkout in progress
and other hosts should wait till it is done.
Platforms tested:
gondolin
Code improvement
Description:
Changed it so that $H5VERSION determines which version of hdf5
code to do cvs checkout and to test, making it easier to handle
new versions.
Platforms tested:
run simple test to make sure it did generate the right command.
Bug fix
Description:
Updated its default H5DIR value to the correct version branch
it is in now.
Platforms tested:
Will be tested by the daily test cron job.
New feature
Description:
Added a -debug line option and will pass it to other runtest invoked.
Removed the restriction of running one test per host. This way,
tests of different tests (e.g., with or without fortran) can be
run per host with all output saved in one log file.
Platforms tested:
Tried several runs of daily test.
Bug fix (feature)
Description:
It did not recognize the op-configure keyword as a possible
type of test.
Solution:
Added the feature to handle op-configure.
Platforms tested:
Linux, freebsd.
Bug fix, feature, cleaning code
Description:
It could not find bin/locate_hdf5.
Solution:
Explicitedly use the bin/locate_hdf5 in the snapshots/current area.
Also, added Usage page to be printed when -h(elp) is asked or when
there is error in command option.
Cleaned some old code no longer used.
Platforms tested:
eirene
Automatically update the HISTORY.txt and RELEASE.txt to in doc/html/ADGuide
by copying the same files at the top level to them. This keeps the two
files updated right before release.
Platforms tested:
eirene.
new feature
Description:
It now reads a configuration file ($HOME/snapshots-hdf5/snaptest.cfg)
to set up the configure options of the tests, and what type of tests
to run for each host.
Platforms tested:
Eirene launched a full blown test on all machines involved in the
daily test.
Simple twist
Description:
snapshot used to just use whatever `hostname` returns. Often it
is the fully qualified name but sometimes just hostname without the
domain part. Inconsistent.
Solution:
Chopped off any domain part and use just the host name.
Use the 'cut' command rather than the sed with ncsa.uiuc.edu hardcoded.
Applied that to runtest too.
Platforms tested:
Should work. Will find out if the daily tests still work.
New Feature
Description:
It supports a configure file (snapshots.../snaptest.cfg).
Currently, it recognize comment lines (started with #)
and the standard configuration.
Platforms tested:
Eirene (Linux)
