Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Some platforms (Windows) don't have the long long type, which causes automatic
Fortran type matching to fail.
A solution is to use HDF5's long_long type.
Solution:
Changed H5match_types.c to use long_long type. Moved definition
of long_long out of H5private.h and into H5public.h.
Platforms tested:
mir, copper, pommier
Bug fix
Description:
Kent reminded me that switching the logic wasn't enough, we really needed
to add the definition to the configure script.
Solution:
Do that.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Code cleanup
Description:
Switch name & logic from H5_LLONG_TO_FP_CAST_BROKEN to
H5_LLONG_TO_FP_CAST_WORKS, to better match the rest of the library.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix.
Description:
The scaleoffset filter checks the uppper limmit of span of values
before it is assigned. The check for floating-point data, which may
not be represented in the machine exactly as the user wanted, did
not consider this.
Solution:
Slight modification of check above.

Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
On visual studio 6.0, conversion from unsigned long long to double is not supported.
Even during compilation stage, it will fail.
Solution:
Albert changed the way the macro is handled so that for windowx MSVS 6.0,
the code that has conversion from unsigned long long to double will not compile.
Platforms tested:
windows, linux
Misc. update:
Update config/lt_vers.am
Description:
My version number bump to config/lt_vers.am somehow didn't get checked
in with the rest of the metadata cache API mods.
Solution:
Bumped the version numbers again, and try checking in the file again.
Platforms tested:
None -- but see previous checkin of metadata cache API additions.
Misc. update:
Add API calls allowing user control of the metadata cache.
Description:
Prior to this update, the metadata cache was not configurable
from outside the library.
Solution:
Add API calls allowing the user to configure the metadata cache
either at file open time, or for any open file. Also added calls
permitting the user to monitor cache size and hit rate. These
latter facilities are needed for "manual" cache size control

Slight modifications.
Description:
Several constants related to the H5Pset_scaleoffset interface
are added into H5Zpublic.h. Test cases that calls H5Pset_scaleoffset
needs slight modifications.
Solution:
Use the defined names when calling H5Pset_scaleoffset instead of
using numerical numbers.
Platforms tested:

of H5Psetscaleoffset.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
heping
Misc. update:
New feature.
Description:
The H5Pset_scaleoffset is changed for the scaleoffset filter
to handle both integer and floating-point data. Currently,
the D-scaling method from GRIB has been implemented for
compressing floating-point data.
Solution:
One more parameter is added to the H5Pset_scaleoffset interface
to let user specify what type of data is used and what method
to use as well as corresponding parameters.
Platforms tested:
heping
Misc. update:
Needs to update libtool's version number

Purpose:
collective chunk IO support for AIX 5.x
Description:
NCSA just updated its poe version, this new version will support
MPI complicated derived data type.
So update our configuration file for AIX 5.x.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
copper, no need for others since only AIX 5.x will be affected.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Made High-Level Fortran code use automatically generated headers
rather than a separate hardcoded header.
Solution:
Set hdf5/hl/fortran/src to include hdf5/fortran/src, so that it
will find the copy of H5f90i.h in that directory.
Took #include "H5private.h" out of H5f90i.h (and moved it to files
that included H5f90i.h.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, pommier
One dtransform test failed with Intel 8.1 C++ compiler.
Turned off the test with assertion of a macro.
Description:
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Intel C++ 8.1 on .Net 2003.
Misc. update:
H5f90i_gen.h has to be copied to fortran/src for windows.
Add this line in the batch file.
Description:
Solution:
Platforms tested:
MSVS 6.0 on windows XP
Misc. update:
Update windows fortran support
Description:
Currently an implementation of automatic generated fortran data type from C has been done for
Linux/Unix platforms. For windows different implementation needs to be developed to make it
consistent with the implementation on Linux/Unix. For the purpose of 1.8 release, we have to add a
new header file. The checking program of the header file on windows will be generated on windows separately.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
VS 6.0 on windows xp.
Misc. update:
Bug fix....
Description:
Despite passing all tests, the previous checkin had a copy/paste typo that
resulted in the tests being run under the wrong conditions.
Solution:
Fixed typo.
Platforms tested:
yet another minor change... copper only.
Misc. update:
bug fix (sorta)
Description:
Rename H5_LLONG_TO_FP_CAST_WORKS to H5_LLONG_TO_FP_CAST_BROKEN
Solution:
Since a test for H5_LLONG_TO_FP_CAST_WORKS is not present in the configure script,
the dtransform test would assume that this cast doesn't work and skip the test. Change the variable around
so that, by default, it is assumed a long long to double cast does work.
Platforms tested:
minor change: copper, sol
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
The intel compiler on windows doesn't support long long to double conversion.
Solution:
Added a flag H5_LLONG_TO_FP_CAST_WORKS. When it is not defined, the data transform will issue
an error when someone tries to perform a transform from long long to double and the long long to double
dtransform test will be skipped.
Platforms tested:
heping, sol, copper
Misc. update:
Configuration feature
Description:
Fortran integer types (not reals) are now automatically detected at
build-time.
Solution:
Two helper programs are used, one to detect what types the Fortran compiler
has access to, and one to generate header files for C and Fortran matching
up types.
Platforms tested:
mir, copper, modi4, pommier (last week)
Misc. update:
MANIFEST updated, H5f90fortran_types.f90 removed from configure.in, since
it is not longer generated by configure.
Output tweak
Description:
Test output in C++ and Fortran directories now puts "C++ API:" or
"Fortran API:" in front of the name of the test being run.
I had overlooked the line of code that caused this to happen.
Solution:
Added HDF_CXX and HDF_FORTRAN variables to C++ and Fortran Makefiles.am.
Platforms tested:
heping (minor change)
Supper 12-byte long double for intel compiler.
Description:
Long double is 12-byte at intel compiler, currently we always set long double to 8-byte.
Change this for intel compiler. This is not the compelete change. H5Tinit.c needs also to be changed to support this.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Not test yet, since it won't affect other compilers except intel, will test soon.
Misc. update:
long_long to long_long data transform doesn't work with intel compiler on windows.
Description:
Turned off this test.
Solution:
Need corresponding source code changes, will talk with Leon.
Platforms tested:
VS. Net 2003 + Intel 8.1
Misc. update:
Description:
Many warnings about duplicate symbols for various members in the std.
Solution:
Temporarily added -qweaksymbol to suppress linker messages warning
of duplicate symbols since these warnings are harmless.
Note from pSeries and AIX Information Center:
When compiling C++ programs containing extern inline functions,
you can use the -qweaksymbol compiler option to suppress linker
messages warning of duplicate symbols.
Hoping that a better solution is suggested or the problem will be
handled by the compiler in the future.
Platforms tested:
AIX 5.1 (copper)
Bug fix
Description:
Remove declaration of 'prefix' variable that was moved into the h5tools
library.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/CC=g++
