new feature
Description:
1) separated the HL library into "public" and "private" header files, with the same caracteristics as the basic library
2) added the public headers to hdf5.h (with a conditional include macro, defined in configure.in)
3) added the path to HL in all Makefile.am 's , because of the inclusion in hdf5.h
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux 32, 64
AIX
solaris
with fortran and c++
(one packet table example fails)
Misc. update:
Description: Warning message about broken line was displayed while running make.com
Solution: Replaced blank line with $ exit line.
Platforms tested: VMS server; this change is local to VMS only
Misc. update:
bug fix.
Description:
The MPE_Stop_log did not work in copper. It spewed out MPE errors
and ended in infinite looping.
Solution:
Changed to a smaller test size to avoid generating huge MPE log files
when MPE is configured in.
Platforms tested:
Copper (mpe)

Description:
hdf5_hl_fortran is a mixed language project. when building

Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
When MPE is used, the test generates huge Clog files in /tmp that

"Hide" file format changes (for now)
Description:
Add ifdef's (controlled by the --enable-group-revision configure flag)
to disable group revision changes to the file format, in order to allow alpha
release to go ahead without releasing an unsupported version into the wild.

new feature
Description
some more check in related to the print of compression ratios: print warning messages after the print of the dataset name and compression:
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
feature
Description:
Added the GetTestExpress and SetTestExpress to support the TestExpress mode
according to $HDF5TextExpress. For now, it is just defined or not, the
actual value does not matter.
Platforms tested:
heping(serial), mir (PP).
Bug fix.
Description:
getenv_all would fail if one calls it without calling MPI_initialized first.
This may happen if one uses PHDF5 library to build a serial nature code
and does not make any MPI calls.
Solution:
Added code to detect if MPI has been initialized. If not, use the
original getenv.
Platforms tested:
heping (serial) and mir (parallel).

Correcting typos and updating
Description:
Several section numbers are messed up inside INSTALL_Windows.txt.
Remove the section of using DEBUG information inside HDF5 since it is difficult to verify whether this part of code is indeed used. Most people use windows' own debugger while debugging.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
Description:
Changed to alias string instead of std, i.e. H5std_string instead
of H5std, because the old way wasn't working when std didn't exist.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (heping)
SunOS 5.8 64-bit (sol)
HPUX 11.00 (kelgia) - this was the problematic platform but I wasn't
able to test before.

Bug fix
Description:
Correct the handling of the group creation property list when copying
objects with the "create intermediate groups" flag.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest (once I pay attention to the compiler
warnings... :-)
Code checkpoint
Description:
Update fractal heap code to allow skipping direct blocks (that are too
small to hold object) when the root indirect block is created.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
New/expanded features
Description:
Check in Peter's changed for the object copy code:
- Allow/fix copying datasets using named variable-length datatypes
- Start adding framework for property list to control how object
copying occurs.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Made parallel fortran configuration happier on modi4
Solution:
The old configure macro, AC_TRY_LINK, added a couple of extra lines to
the Fortran test program which the new macro doesn't. Added those
lines manually.
Platforms tested:
modi4, copper (change should affect only parallel fortran)
Code checkpoint
Description:
Checkpoint recent additions to fractal heap code, which allow for better
support of objects that don't fit into current direct block, requiring
skipped direct blocks to be tracked in free section list.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (chicago & heping)
Linux 2.4 (mir) w/64-bit & FORTRAN & C++
Mac OSX (amazon)
Configure cleanup
Description:
Removed unused macros, migrated to non-depreciated macros.
Solution:
The changes to use standard AC_TRY_LIB macros earlier this week
seem not to have broken anything, so I deleted the local macros in
acsite.m4 (with an eye to eventually deleting the rest of the file and
using only autoconf-supported macros).
Replaced the depreciated AC_TRY_LIB with AC_LIB_IFELSE to shut up
warnings during reconfigure.
Platforms tested:
mir, copper (should be just cleanup)
