Rename new error handling API routines from H5E<foo>_stack() to
H5E<foo>2().
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.4.9 (amazon)
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)
FreeBSD/64 6.2 (liberty)
Tested platform:
Kagiso only since it is only a comment block change. If it works in one
machine, it should work in all, I hope. Still need to check the parallel
build on copper.
Users can create external links using H5L_create_external(). These links
point to an object in another HDF5 file. Users can alter the behavior of
external links or create new kinds of links by registering callbacks
using the H5L interface.
Added tests, tools support, etc.
Also a number of other, minor changes have been made (some restructuring of
the H5L interface, for instance).
Additional documentation and examples are forthcoming.
Code cleanup
Description:
Trim trailing whitespace, which is making 'diff'ing the two branches
difficult.
Solution:
Ran this script in each directory:
foreach f (*.[ch] *.cpp)
sed 's/[[:blank:]]*$//' $f > sed.out && mv sed.out $f
end
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-)
Description:
Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections.
However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier
until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I
brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the
release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in
performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch,
but not the other.
I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label
"before_signed_unsigned_changes".
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel & fphdf5
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/backward compatibility
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/"purify options"
Solaris 2.8 (sol) w/FORTRAN & C++
AIX 5.x (copper) w/parallel & FORTRAN
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/FORTRAN
Linux 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Tweak recent "forward compatibility" changes to the H5E* API (which allowed
for the old H5E API functions to remain unchanged) by allowing for the error
stack callback function (H5E_auto_t) to also remain unchanged from the 1.6
branch. This required changing the H5E{get|set}_auto routines to have the
old style H5E_auto_t type (which didn't have a stack ID parameter) and the new
H5E{get|set}_auto_stack routines to have a newer "H5E_auto_stack_t" type (which
has a stack ID parameter). This should make the H5E API changes as forwardly
compatible as possible.
One side-affect of this change was that it was impossible to determine if
the current auto error callback was the old style (H5E_auto_t) or the new style
(H5E_auto_stack_t) of callback, so a new API function (H5Eauto_is_stack) was
adde to query this.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
h5committest
Description: Restore 6 old error API functions back to the library to be backward
compatible with v1.6. They are H5Epush, H5Eprint, H5Ewalk, H5Eclear, H5Eset_auto,
H5Eget_auto. These functions do not have error stack as parameter.
Solution: Internally, these functions use default error stack.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss.
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Update.
Description:
Make some minor change so that h5jam.c is compatible with Windows.
Solution:
1. unistd.h is not available in windows system. Add a macro for this header file as:
#ifdef H5_HAVE_UNISTD_H
#include <unistd.h>
#endif
2. Change open, read, write, lseek functions to HDopen, HDread, HDwrite, and HDlseek,
as these HD functions are more comtatible with Windows system.
3. add #include H5private.h
4. remove #include <stdlib.h>
Platforms tested:
Windows 2000
Windows XP
eirene
(Note: I talked with Bob and Kent about these changes before check-in)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Correct compilation errors w/--enable-hdf5_v1_6 and using the C++ compiler
as a C compiler
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/above flags
Not tested with h5committest
Adding new 'jam' utility
Description:
New utility, plus changes to makefiles
Solution:
See http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/RFC/Jam
Platforms tested:
verbena (fortran,C++), arabica, hirdls (SGI Irix64)
Misc. update:
Manifest will be done in next checkin.
