Description:
In our debug project configurations, many of the projects were generating debug information for "Program Database and Edit & Continue". Other projects were using different settings, or none at all. We standardize to use "Program Database" setting, because it generates much smaller .obj files and cuts out unnecessary debug information.
This is another project cleanup and enhancement from user suggestions outlined in bug #1164
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS.NET on WinXP
Description:
In many of our project files on Windows, we have our linker setting set to ignore old link libraries-- either libc.lib or libcd.lib. This is a relic from converting project files from old versions of Visual Studio to newer ones, and is unnecessary. Per a user's suggestion, we remove the ignored library from the project files. This actually makes no difference in the output binaries.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS.NET on WinXP
Description:
When building HDF5 with thread safety on Windows, the err_compat test was failing because our output was being parsed incorrectly. Rather than having a thread number in the error stack trace, there will be the string "some thread: no way to know the thread (IDs): from pthread on windows:". This checkin now takes this into account, and modifies the output accordingly.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP with Pthreads
Description:
On Windows, many POSIX functions have been replaced by a similarly-named function with some additional security-checking. Visual Studio issues a warning each time the POSIX version is used, recommending that we replace it with the new version. This results in thousands of errors when building the HDF5 library.
This checkin adds a Visual Studio "Property Sheet", which has been applied to all library projects, and defines a number of preprocessors to suppress these warnings. The warnings have been disabled only in Visual Studio 2005 project files, as VS.NET doesn't support property sheets.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
Description:
The ohdr_gentst project exists in order to re-create test input files that are distributed with the source. These projects aren't built by default on most platforms, and the source isn't distributed in release builds. To avoid confusion and bloat, we remove the Windows version of this project.
Tested:
None, only removed
Description:
In previous versions of Windows, the builtin 'FC' command (diff equivalent) didn't return proper exit status. As a work-around, we parsed the message returned to check status. This relies on English return messages.
In current Windows XP and Windows Vista, FC will return exit status as expected, so we can remove this workaround. Older platforms where we would need this workaround are no longer supported.
Tested:
VS2005 on Windows XP
Small test on Windows Vista
Description:
A new source file has been added, ./test/chunk_info.c. As a result, we need to add new projects for Windows. This includes projects for VS2005 on VNET.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VNET on WinXP
Description:
This catches up Windows to most of the new source files that have been added. Specifically, H5FDpkg.h and H5FDspace.c have been added to the library projects, and tcoords.c has been added to testhdf5. This goes for VS2005 and VS6 project files.
Tested:
Only built, VS2005
Description:
In my large checkin yesterday, I forgot to add a few Windows project files that were renamed. This should bring the MANIFEST up to date.
Tested:
Will use chkmanifest after commit
Description:
This checkin is another Windows project cleanup, and also extends our Windows support for 64-bit Fortran. Project files are now in VS2005 format, rather than VS.NET. A couple projects have been renamed to be more descriptive (*cstub rather than *_lib), and project settings make better use of build macros. This will make them much easier to update in the future.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP 32-bit
VS2005 on WinXP x64
Description:
We are porting Fortran to 64-bit Windows, and need to make many syntactical changes to bring the code up to date. We now go back to using "!DEC$" rather than "!MS$" in our "ATTRIBUTE" code. Also, the naming conventions for mixed language is inconsistent from 32- to 64- bit Windows. To make up with this, we use the "decorate" flag. We also needed to change the "calling convention" in project settings from "CVF" to "default".
Also other minor cleanups on project files.
Tested:
32-bit: VS.NET and VS2005
64-bit: VS2005
Description:
Previously, we needed to force symbol definition "gethostname@8" for compatibility with old versions of Visual Studio. It appears that Visual Studio no longer requires this, so we remove it. This makes the build process on 64-bit much smoother.
Also minor updates to main documentation, command-line documentation, and removed codewarrior and INTEL docs.
Tested:
VS.NET
VS2005
chkmanifest
Desciption:
This is the first major check-in in the process of depreciating Visual Studio 6.0. We create a new directory, windows_vs6, which now holds all of our previous VS6 project files. We expect to maintain this directory for only a short time (perhaps one release), so users have time to make the change.
The ./windows directory now contains project files for Visual Studio .Net, as well as existing source and test scripts. This will allow us to greatly simplify the build process for the majority of our users.
We have created a new solution (.Net equivolent of workspace) that houses the Fortran project files. This allowed us to remove these files from the main solution, as well as streamline the conversion in the Fortran solution. It is also much easier now to convert to Visual Studio 2005 files.
Notes:
I didn't update the MANIFEST with this check-in, I will make those changes shortly.
Also, I haven't yet updated the documentation to reflect this check-in. That is going to require more work.
We will be giving a seminar in the coming weeks about .Net and how to migrate over.
Tested:
VS6/VNET/VS2005 on WinXP 32/64-bit
