are five new API functions for querying selections:
H5Sget_select_hyper_nblocks - retrieves the number of hyperslab blocks
in current hyperslab selection for a
dataspace
H5Sget_select_elem_npoints - retrieves the number of element points
in current element selection for a
dataspace
H5Sget_select_hyper_blocklist - retrieves a list of the hyperslab blocks
in current hyperslab selection for a
dataspace
H5Sget_select_elem_pointlist - retrieves a list of the element points
in current element selection for a
dataspace
H5Sget_select_bounds - retrieves a n-dimensional bounding box
containing current selection.
external.c:
Test assumed sizeof(int) is 4. Changed the hard-coded values
to values depending on the native sizeof(int).
th5s.c:
Changed hardcoded old filenames to macro FILE.
H5Flow.c:
Document previous changes (same changes committed by Robb first.)
H5Fprivate.h:
Change DECODE macros to do sign extension.
(Sign extension can be skipped if machines use the exact sizes.)
H5Sall.c:
Fixed a typo in return value.
H5private.h:
Fixed a typo and also changed the strategy of the int16_t and
uint16_t typedef. Now will use short as long as it is at least
2 bytes big.
OS cannot handle the 64 bit instruction sets. Let the local system
default takes care of preferred machine code.
Tested on both IRIX and IRIX64 platforms.
Bug fix
Problem:
On Solaris2.5, once the library has been compilied with any type of
optimization, a bus error comes up in the "dtypes" test.
Solution:
The problem appears to be in the compilers' version of memcpy() that
is used when optimized. Instead of substituting HDmemmove(), on
Solaris, the problem is also taken care of by preparing the second
argument to HDmemcpy(). The datatype pointer is copied to a separate
char pointer which is then used as the second argument to HDmemcpy().
For some reason, it isn't enough to simply cast the datatype pointer.
Platform tested:

Improvements for parallel library. If you have a properly
working mpicc you should be able to just say:
$ CC=mpicc ./configure
and you will see
checking for mpirun... /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun
checking for parallel support files... skipped
checking how to run on one processor...
/usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np 1
checking how to run in parallel...
/usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np $$NPROCS
To quote from the INSTALL file....
*** Parallel vs. serial library
The HDF5 library can be configured to use MPI and MPI-IO for
parallelizm on a distributed multi-processor system. The easy
way to do this is to have a properly installed parallel
compiler (e.g., MPICH's mpicc or IBM's mpcc) and supply that
executable as the value of the CC environment variable:
[NOTE: mpcc is not tested yet]
$ CC=mpcc ./configure
$ CC=/usr/local/mpi/bin/mpicc ./configure
If no such wrapper script is available then you must specify
your normal C compiler along with the distribution of
MPI/MPI-IO which is to be used (values other than `mpich' will
be added at a later date):
$ ./configure --enable-parallel=mpich
If the MPI/MPI-IO include files and/or libraries cannot be
found by the compiler then their directories must be given as
arguments to CPPFLAGS and/or LDFLAGS:
$ CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/mpi/include \
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/mpi/lib/LINUX/ch_p4 \
./configure --enable-parallel=mpich
If a parallel library is being built then configure attempts
to determine how to run a parallel application on one
processor and on many processors. If the compiler is mpicc
and the user hasn't specified values for RUNSERIAL and
RUNPARALLEL then configure chooses `mpirun' from the same
directory as `mpicc':
RUNSERIAL: /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np 1
RUNPARALLEL: /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np $${NPROCS:=2}
The `$${NPROCS:=2}' will be substituted with the value of the
NPROCS environment variable at the time `make check' is run
(or the value 2).
./testpar/Makefile.in
Saying `make check' (or `make test') will run the tests on two
processors by default. If you define NPROCS then that many
processors are used instead:
$ NPROCS=4 make check
./configure.in
Fixed (hopefully) bugs with detecting whether __attribute__
and __FUNCTION__ are special keywords for the compiler.
./Makefile.in
Saying `make install' from the top level directory shows
instructions for using shared libraries.
./config/commence.in
./src/Makefile.in
./test/Makefile.in
./testpar/Makefile.in
./tools/Makefile.in
Moved the @top_srcdir@ into the makefiles because it was
expanded too early and had the wrong value.
./INSTALL
Added a warning that if the wrong version of hdf4 tools are
installed then `make check' will fail in the tools directory.
Bug fix
Problem:
On Solaris2.5, once the library has been compilied with any type of
optimization, a bus error comes up in the "dtypes" test.
Solution:
The problem appears to be in the compilers' version of memcpy() that
is used when optimized. Apparently, the same optimization problem
is not associated with the similar function memmove(). So, as a
solution to this problem, memmove() is substituted in for memcpy().

./INSTALL
Reorganized and added some additional examples.
./MANIFEST
./aclocal.m4 [NEW]
./configure.in
./configure [REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
./bin/ltconfig [NEW]
./bin/ltmain.sh [NEW]
Added tests to determine how to compile shared libraries and
how to link programs with them before the libraries are
installed. Also how to install and uninstall shared
libraries. The configure step also prints the names of the
config files it's trying to load for easier debugging.
./bin/config.guess
./bin/config.sub
Replaced with a newer version from GNU. The changes we made
to that file to report `irix6.x' and `FreeBSD' without version
numbers have been incorporated into configure.in instead. In
the future, do not change these two files (see the top of
configure.in instead). By the way, this update was required to
get shared libraries working.
./config/linux [REMOVED]
./config/linux-gnulibc1 [NEW]
./config/linux-gnu [NEW]
./config/alpha-dec [REMOVED]
./config/alpha-dec-osf4.0 [REMOVED]
./config/dec-osf4.x [NEW]
./config/irix5.3 [REMOVED]
./config/irix5.x [NEW]
./config/irix64 [REMOVED]
./config/freebsd
Moved config files around to agree with output from the new
config.guess. The linux file was split into gnu (RedHat),
gnulibc1, and gnulibc2 versions. The alpha-dec file was
removed (I think it was unused) and the alpha-dec-osf4.0 was
changed to dec-osf4.x. The irix5.3 file renamed to irix5.x and
the irix64 file was renamed to irix6.x. The freebsd file was
changed to point to linux-gnulibc1. These changes were tested
on:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20
OSF1 4.0
./config/alphaev56-dec-osf4.x
./config/irix64
Added warnings similar to linux/freebsd about using compilers
with known bugs.
./config/commence.in
./config/conclude.in
./src/Makefile.in
./test/Makefile.in
./testpar/Makefile.in
./tools/Makefile.in
Added definitions for shared libraries. This has been tested
on the following systems:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20 static only
OSF1 4.0
If you want to disable use of shared libraries (you probably
do for development purposes since it takes a lot longer to
compile and because you have to run dynamically linked
programs in a special way if the library hasn't been
installed) then add `--disable-shared' to the configure
command line. This is all documented in the INSTALL file.
./bin/release
Temprarily commented out the MANIFEST checking when running
under svf since svf is about to be replaced by a newer
version. This change only affects error checking during the
release process.
./Makefile.dist
./Makefile.in
Added `make check' which does the same thing as `make _test'
since the former is endorsed by the GNU coding style and
people are used to it. The old `make _test' still works too
(and so does `make test' if you use GNU make).
----------------------
./INSTALL
Added instructions for using other compilers on Irix platforms.
./configure.in
./configure [REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
./src/H5private.h
The presence of <sys/sysinfo.h> and <sys/proc.h> is only
checked on DEC/Alpha because there are too many problems
including these headers on other systems.
./config/irix6.x
./config/irix64
Removed `-ansi' and added a comment. Converting an ASCII UTC date
and time to a time_t value is not defined by ANSI or Posix but
is available if we don't use `-ansi'. This allows the dataset
modification time messages to be read properly by
H5Gget_objinfo().
./src/H5Tconv.c
Fixed a compiler warning.
./test/dtypes.c
./test/hyperslab.c
./test/istore.c
Fixed compiler warnings in printf() statements.
----------------------
./INSTALL
Added warnings and a disclaimer about GNU, DEC, Irix64, and NT
compilers that generate incorrect machine code.
./configure.in
./src/H5private.h
Detects and includes <sys/param.h> which is needed on FreeBSD
before <sys/proc.h> even though we only really using anything
from <sys/proc.h> on the DEC Alpha.
./config/irix64
Turned off warnings for duplicate definitions from the linker
because -lnsl on irix has the same stuff in it as -lc.
./config/irix6.x
Split up the CC and CFLAGS settings like with irix64 so that
compilers besides `-n32' can be used.
./bin/snapshot
The snapshots are tagged with names like hdf5-1_1_52 which is
similar to the way the releases are tagged (cvs doesn't allow
dots in tags).
./test/dtypes.c
./src/H5private.h
./src/H5Tconv.c
Fixed some alignment violations on the DEC when using high
optimization levels. The DEC incorrectly optimizes certain
memcpy() and memmove() calls when the source argument is not
word aligned if the call looks like it's copying an atomic
data type.
./test/hyperslab
Worked around code generation bugs in the Irix64 Mongoose 7.00
compiler by casting some `unsigned long' values to `unsigned'
in an expression.
./src/H5Ocomp.c
Fixed a place where %d was used to print a size_t.
Bug fix
Problem:
This bug is coming up as a bus error on some machines
(fuga, spank) in the "fillval" test. At higher levels of
optimizations, H5detect gets rid of a statement which is to
be used in alignment tests. Because of this, SIGBUS is never
delivered, and the alignment constraints of the machine are
not recorded correctly by H5detect in H5Tinit.c.
Solution:
By preventing the optimizer from getting rid of the statement
to be used in the alignment tests, SIGBUS is delivered as
expected, and the alignment constraints of the machine are
recorded correctly.
Platform tested:
Irix6.5(fuga), HPUX10.20(spank), Solaris2.5(Kryten)
----------------------
./config/irix64

Ruey-Hsia.
fixed the H5Tinit.c so it had the correct endians. I must have been using
the wrong H5Tinit.c file for the past few weeks. Also added a few comments
to the h5config.h
----------------------
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5private.h
./src/H5Ipublic.h
./src/H5O.c
Fixed a rather nasty bug with file closing that caused the
file boot block to be updated incorrectly, effectively
truncating the file. The bug I fixed was triggered by:
1. Create a file, F
2. Open an object, X
3. Close file F
4. Reopen file F for read/write.
5. Create and close some objects
6. Close file F
7. Close library (exit).
Step 3 pended the close because object X is still open, but
the file ID was removed from the H5I_FILE ID group. Step 4
created a new file because it didn't see any matching file on
the H5I_FILE ID group. Step 5 extends the file. Step 6 writes
the new file boot block to disk. Step 7 closes object X and
completes the close from step 3, writing the old boot block
information to disk.
The new behavior is that step 3 moves the file from the
H5I_FILE group to the H5I_FILE_CLOSING group. Step 4 searches
both groups and finds the file. Step 5 extends the file using
the same H5F_file_t struct as step 3. Step 6 closes the H5F_t
struct opened in step 3 but not the H5F_file_t struct shared
by steps 1 and 3. Step 7 closes object X which closes the
H5F_file_t from step 1, flushing the boot block which was
shared by all steps.
./src/H5F.c
Added some bulletproofing to file reference counting and
removed comments which no longer apply. Added H5F_flush_all()
and H5F_close_all() which apply to all files.

Added the new H5I_free_t data type to describe the function
type to be passed as the `free_func' argument to
H5I_init_group().
./src/H5I.c
Bulletproofed the object removal functions. Removed comments
which no longer apply. Changed global variable names so they
don't violate the naming scheme. Added H5I_debug() that prints
the contents of an ID group. Removed H5I_inc_ref() because it
isn't used. Reindented a couple of functions.
./src/H5.c
./src/H5G.c
./src/H5Ipublic.h
Changed H5I_MAXID to H5I_NGROUPS to better relect the fact
that it's the total number of valid ID groups.
./src/H5Shyper.c
Changed hyperslab offset arrays to signed quantities to get
rid of warnings on DEC cluster.
./src/H5Flow.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
Changed the objno argument of H5F_addr_pack() to be unsigned
to get rid of warnings on DEC cluster.
