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
Description: When converting floating-point numbers to integers and the values of
floating-point number are greater than the maximal value of integer, Cray X1 generates
floating exception.
Solution: Added a test in configure to detect Cray X1's exception. Set a flag to
indicate the machine that can handle overflow converting all floating-point to all
integer types. This flag should be set for all machines, except for Cray X1 where
floating exception is generated when the floating-point value is greater than the
maximal integer value.
Platforms tested: Cray X1 and h5committest.
Description: In this data conversion test, from floating number to floating number,
when the source is bigger than the destination, overflow may happen. The library
assign INFINITY while compiler's behavior is undefined. A compiler like SGI assigns
the maximal value for the destination.
Solution: When this situation occurs, simply check if the destination is INFINITY
instead of comparing values.
Platforms tested: modi4 and h5committest.
Description: Renamed test/dt_atomic.c to test/dt_arith.c(an abbreviation
of "arithmetic data types") to better describe the program. This checkin
broke down into three sections when the floating-point numbers are the
source, normalized, denormalized, and special values. If there's any
difference of destination values, only normalized value test reports
failure. The other 2 report only as warning.
Platforms tested: h5commitest and fuss
Misc. update: MANIFEST
