Binh-Minh came up with the code fix and Mike. M did changes to configuration
to make it to work.
Tested: kagiso with pgcc, pgCC and gcc, g++ compilers
linew with the SUN cc and CC compilers 32 and 64-bit

Bug fix.
Description:
It used to clean out all *.h5 when done but this could cause a racing
condition error if parallel make (e.g., gmake -j ...) is used because
the "rm ... *.h5 ..." would remove *.h5 generaged and are still used
by other test programs (e.g. xx_write/xx_read).
Solution:
Removed "*.h5" from the cleanup list since the test program has already
taken care of removing temporary *.h5 generated.
Tested platform:
smirom. Not triple platforms tested since this is just a simple shell
script change.
Description:
Compilers don't destroy temporary objects at the same time, some do
immediately after use, some delay until the end of the scope. The
delay makes it difficult to test the reference count functionality.
Solution:
Enclosed the operations on objects and check reference count after
getting out of the enclosed block. This only works for the test!
I'm assuming that checking reference count is just for the library
to test that functionality; the user will not need to do that. :-/
Platforms tested:

2) Removing configuration of c++/src/H5cxx_pubconf.h file.
Reasoning: the additional pubconf file caused compilation complications, this is cleaner.
Tested: kagiso, smirom
Description: added new configuration to generate a pubconf file
in the c++/src directory, H5cxx_pubconf.h. When C++
compiler recognizes 'offsetof', the macro
H5_CXX_HAVE_OFFSETOF is defined in the new
pubconf file.
tested: kagiso, smirom
Description:
Bring the expected output for the C++ examples up-to-date. This file is used in the Windows test script. It is also used by ./c++/examples/testexamples.sh, although this script is never run by hand. 'make check' runs the script generated by testh5c++.sh.in, which doesn't use expected.out.
Tested:
VS6 on WinXP
kagiso
Description: a new configure flag has been created that will now set a macro
in the test/Makefile. The flag is with-default-vfd=. When set to
a virtual file driver (e.g. "--with-default-vfd=sec2"), the macro
DEFAULT_VFD will hold this value.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew
file size from MPI_File_get_size. Bypass this problem by replacing it with
stat. Add an option --disable-mpi-size in configure to indicate this function
doesn't work properly. Add a test in testpar/t_mpi.c, too. If it returns wrong
file size, print out a warning.
Tested on kagiso (parallel) because already tested the same change to v1.6 on
several platforms (kagiso, cobalt, copper, and sol).
The test scripts did not take in account that the binary has been installed
somewhere other than the original prefix. Added a provision to allow
explicit definition of $prefix to work.
Tested:
kagiso.
Rename new error handling API routines from H5E<foo>_stack() to

On pending: waiting for Elena to test on VMS when she comes back.
The copyright notices have errors in the closing comment lines that
C++ compilers complain about. Fixed the comment line.
Tested platform:
In smirom using disable-production, enable-debug, disable-shared option.
(other combinations would ended in build or test failures. Pretty sure
they were caused by my changes.)
Description: Multiple copies of Copyright appeared in Makefile.in. This was
due to automake copying the copyright right in the included files such as
config/commence.am.
Solution: Automake treats double hashes as comments and does not copy them
to Makefile.in. Changed all the copyright notices in config/*.am to use
double hashes for the Copyright right notice.
Tested: kagiso via bin/reconfigure.
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.
Description:
- Added a brief test for DSetCreatPropList::setSzip. More through tests
will be added later.
- Moved check_values from dsets.cpp into h5cpputil.cpp for sharing

The examples had been depending on the build libraries in src, but should have
been depending only on the installed h5cc. Fixed this.
Tested on kagiso (dependency change only, and was unable to replicate the
problem on any system). Real test will be Daily Tests tonight.
Description:
Added
* tests for some generic datatype operations
* tests for compound datatype operations
These tests are checked in now to make sure they're safe! They can
use some more comments and minor cleanups. Will do very soon.
Fixed few minor typos.

It seems that while Cygwin supports the time command, it has trouble with
the syntax
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" time ./testhdf5
and complains.
The solution is to test the above case in configure and not to use the time
command if it fails; Cygwin is fine with
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" ./testhdf5
Tested on Cygwin and kagiso. This feature shouldn't be a major compatibility
problem since every platform but Cygwin is already fine with the current
syntax.
Description:
Fixed several mismatched types causing daily test to fail on tg-login.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.6 (kagiso) - just to make sure no ill effects.
I cannot login to tg-login3 so am going to watch for it on daily test
tonight.
Description:
In Attribute::read, H5Aread malloc's memory for the read data buffer,
so Attribute::read shouldn't allocate the buffer, but needs to
deallocate with HDfree.
Fixed a typo in H5StrType.cpp, should pass PredType::C_S1 to "copy"
instead of H5T_C_S1.

The version of libtool used by HDF5 isn't directly affected by the reconfigure
script; instead, libtoolize --force must be used by hand. Libtool was the
source of the problem, so rolling its version back to 1.5.14 should solve the
issue (at least temporarily).
Reconfigure should still work on both heping and kagiso.
Tested on heping, kagiso, and tg-login3.
Should disable linking against shared libraries in Fortran for compilers that
don't support shared libraries.
Should also fix problem when the wrong Fortran file extension was specified.
If these changes don't solve the Daily Test issues, I'll look at backing out
the autotool version change until I have time to fix them.
Tested on heping, kagiso, juniper.
Refactor generic property list initialization code to put property list
specific routines in property list modules, instead of scattered to the four
winds. Also, introduce property list class initialization objects, to make
adding new property list classes in the library easier.
Fix daily test failure by using H5Pget_elink_prefix() API routine instead
of looking at the "raw" generic property list information.

Platforms tested:
Linux 2.6 (kagiso) - very minor, and Kent will test it on Windows, because
that was where it was complained about.
Bug fix (related to 544)
Description:
h5_get_file_size() was coded to return 0 if failed but
file size can be 0. Changed the failure return value to -1
which is allowed by the returned type of off_t which is a signed
type.
Also changed the checking code of the stat call to just == 0
since that is how it is defined.
Test:
Could test it in heping only. Both Sol and Copper failed to
compiled due to error in the Direct IO VFD code.
and quote its arguments. Also checks for the 'socket' library on
Solaris.
If this patch passes the Daily Tests and makes the user happy, I'll
port it back to the 1.6 branch.
Tested on mir and sol.
Since these examples need to follow filesystem paths, the Makefiles need
to create directories in the examples directory; added this to the
Makefile.am.
Tested on Windows, mir, juniper
"make check-vfd" will now run all tests in the test directory with different
file drivers (at least, all of those tests that use the testing framework's
FAPL). Tests that fail will be skipped.
This is not a perfect fix, but is better than nothing.
Along with this change, check-vfd should be added to the Daily Tests.
Feature
Description:
Revised Link APIs.
Solution:
New link APIs use H5L*
H5*create_expand do not create links to the objects created; this must
be done manually with H5Llink.
Added APIs to link an object given its ID (H5Llink), to copy links (H5Lcopy),
and changed creation APIs (H5Lcreate_hard and H5Lcreate_soft) and query
API (H5Lget_linkinfo instead of H5Gget_objinfo).
All old APIs are still supported in H5Gdeprec.c .
Platforms tested:
sol, mir, copper
Misc. update:
Forgot to update MANIFEST and release docs. Will do after checkin.
Code cleanup
Description:
Trim trailing whitespace in Makefile.am and C/C++ source files to make
diffing changes easier.
Platforms tested:
None necessary, whitespace only change
Configuration feature
Description:
'make install' now tests both static and shared libraries if both are installed.
Solution:
Previously, shared libraries were only tested when static libraries were not installed.
Also cleaned up line in commence.am that was including HL library in all Makefiles.
Platforms tested:

Bug fix - bugzilla #552
Description:

Bug fix.
Description:
The ${TR}, though avoid the error, is inconvenient. It is needed
because configure.in use the char range in the style of 'a-z'.
The other style of '[a-z]' is more commonly accepted by all tr
but autoconf tends to strip away [], making the syntax rather
clumsy.
Solution:
Learned from autoconf that it avoids the use of character range
by just spell all the letters out. Changed our tr commands to
use those variables defined by autoconf. Also removed the
definition of ${TR} since it will cause inconsistancy when
autoconf also use plain 'tr' in its generated code.
The Makefile.in are changed because the elimination of ${TR} from
configure triggered its removal from all Makefil.in. That is okay
because ${TR} is not used at all in Makefile.
Platforms tested:
h5committested. (sol failed to connected). also tested in shanti
using both /usr/ucb/tr and /bin/tr (the bad one before.)
Misc. update:
Updated both INSTALL and RELEASE files.
Description: Function prototype H5E_walk_t and structure H5E_error_t wasn't backward
compatible.
Solution: Make them compatible with v1.6 and provide new definitions of H5E_walk_stack_t
and H5E_error_stack_t.
Platforms tested: fuss and h5committest.
Purpose: Bug fix for VMS
Description: I am not sure why I didn't see this bug before ;-O.
H5_HAVE_FILE_VERSIONS macro was added (by me) to the wrong place
causing test program to get creation property list from a non-existing
file object. As a result test program failed with access violation
error.
Solution: Fixed.
Platforms tested: VMS server and copper (just in case)
Misc. update:
Description:
dsets.cpp: added a missing PASSED call to line up output better.
tattr.cpp: casted parameters to verify_val properly to fix compilation
errors on Windows, introduced from the previous checkin.
Platforms tested:

Several bug fixes
Description:
Added config file for Cray X1 (previous file was misnamed)
Simplified some code in hyperslab.c test that seemed to have been
confusing compiler on Cray X1.
Fixed typo in config/commence.am
Cleaned up hl/src/Makefile.am
Solution:
All four fixes should be straightforward. The failure on Cray was
very difficult to debug, but involved arithmetic errors.
This change seems to fix it.
Platforms tested:
heping, copper, sol, some Cray X1 (more testing when system comes back up)
Description:
The file size test in C++ library failed on Copper because the
value returned by h5_get_file_size was intepreted incorrectly
due to different interger sizes.
Solution:
H5private.h: Added check to use stat64 and off64_t where appropriate.
h5test.c and h5test.h: used h5_stat_size_t in place of off_t.
tattr.cpp: used h5_stat_size_t in place of off_t.

more daily tests and Binh-Minh). Removed.
Platforms tested: heping, mir with Intel compiler, copper with -q64,
shanti (there is a known failure in tatrr test)
Misc. update:
Anti-feature
Description:
Revert changes to H5G_stat_t struct, to make it compatible with the 1.6.x
branch again. The information that was added to the H5G_stat_t struct will
be reported through other API routines.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/C++
Linux 2.4/64 (mir) w/C++ & Fortran
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)
Description: Brought VMS changes back. My previous note about
using std::count; should be in this log.
C++ on VMS doesn't support "using std::count"
Solution: IFDEF'ed with H5_VMS (until Binh-Minh has a chance to look into it and
propose a different solution)
Platforms tested: VMS server, heping
Misc. update:
Description: Brought VMS changes back (very minor):
In tfile.cpp file some tests for open and creation should fail on UNIX,
but this is not true on VMS since it has versioning of the files.
In dsets.cpp std::count was used, but it is not available on VMS; also
VMS didn't like "bogus" name for the filter function.
Solution: Used H5_HAVE_FILE_VERSIONS and H5_VMS variables to control the tests;
replaced "bogus" function with "filter_bogus" function
Platforms tested: VMS server, heping
Misc. update:
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

There was a workaround for predefined types, in the C++ library,
implemented when the C++ library was handling the reference
counting of the object ids on its own. Currently, the C++ library

So, I decided to remove the workaround completely.
Also, improved the use of std members.

Bug fix
Description:
Fortran type generation was broken in two ways. Fixed both.
Solution:
Firstly, there were a couple of path problems. Fixed a typo and
specified the full path of a file.
Secondly, the dependencies weren't right when building with HDF5-specific
commands (make lib, make check-s, etc.). Tweaked dependencies
to fix the problem.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, sleipnir
Configure feature
Description:
Added 'make trace' target.
Solution:
Added tracing to 1.7. This was done automatically in 1.6, but left out
of 1.7 until now (oops!).
Tracing in 1.7 only happens manually, when the user types 'make trace.'
Tracing automatically requires more framework than it's worth.
I also fixed a couple of tracing bugs and ran trace.
Platforms tested:

Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Before this checkin, 'gmake check-s' would fail if there was a file in
the current directory named 'check-s'.
This is fixed under gmake (not sure how to fix for other makes).
Solution:
check, progs, install, etc. are what gmake calls "phony" targets,
which means that no file should be created. These targets can be
specified by a line of the form
.PHONY: check progs install ...
Automake adds this line for targets it knows about, but HDF5 has a
lot of custom rules. This checkin adds a .PHONY line for those rules.
I believe that only gmake recognizes the .PHONY line (at least, pmake
doesn't seem to), but a partial solution is better than none.
This error should occur very rarely anyway (the user has to manually
create files with names like 'build-check-s' or '_test').

Bug fix/feature
Description:
Added support for -shlib in h5fc and h5c++.
Made check-install use -shlib when only shared libraries have been installed.
Solution:
h5fc and h5c++ didn't recognize -shlib. Stole code from h5cc to link against
shared libraries.
When static libraries are disabled, the examples Makefiles will automatically
use the -shlib option to link against shared libraries. Thus,
--disable-static and make check-install should work together.
Platforms tested:
heping(disable-static, enable-static, fortran, c++), modi4 (disable-static, fortran, c++, parallel, enable-static)
Update copyrights.
Description:
Solution:
This should address almost all of the "simple" cases in the repository.
There's still work to do, but it's going to require actually thinking about
the files in question instead of just copying & pasting.

Bug fix
Description:
Changed configure.in to use an environment variable TR to set the path
to the tr utility.
Solution:
There are two kind of tr on Solaris with slightly different syntax.
HDF5's configure relies on the "standard" tr. Traditionally, HDF5ers
have needed to make sure that the "right" tr was found before the
wrong one in their path; now they can use an environment variable.

Forgot to update release notes. Off to do that now.
Makefile bug fix
Description:
Previously, automake didn't output rules to build perform/mpi-perf or
the test/gen_* programs.
Now these can be built by typing 'make mpi-perf' (or 'make foo') or by
configuring with --enable-build-all.
Solution:
Automake doesn't like having rules for programs it doesn't build. Tricked
it by having these programs built "sometimes"--whenever the user enables
--build-all. This should be used mostly for testing and to ensure that
these helper programs compile.
***IMPORTANT***
These programs do *not* currently compile. When --enable-build-all is used
(not the default), gen_new_fill fails because it uses an old API. This is
an existing "bug" that has simply been exposed by this checkin.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, modi4, sol
Misc. update:
bug fix.
Description:
When a parallel test script test fails, make would continue because the
way it was setup inside a for loop. Fixed it by issuing an exit 1 inside
the loop.
There was also a typo error in the newer command comparision that it
must be $${chkname} in order to be valid. Also, the test script itself
was not checked in the newer lists. All fixed.
Platforms tested:
h5committested and also hand tested in heping pp mode.
Description:
I couldn't get the HDF logo to appear, when the location for the
html files generated by doxygen is arbitrary. This arbitrary
directory doesn't contain the logo image file, which would be
placed in a planned directory.
The logo is removed now, but the image file is kept in the CVS
under hdf5/c++/src, just in case when I can find a solution.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (heping)
Windows XP
Misc. update:
New feature.
Description:
Added the time command to the make check target to report time usage
of the execute of each test and test scripts. This gives us some idea
how long each test takes and some vague idea it is compute bound or
not.
powerpc-ibm-aix5.x:
Change $RUNPARALLEL default setting to allow it being invoked by the
time command.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Feature
Description:
Added H5_CFLAGS, etc. to 1.7 branch.
Now compilation flags can be put in H5_*FLAGS and they'll be used when
building hdf5 but not in h5cc.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Disabled C++ shared libraries for Sun Workshop compiler.
Solution:
This bug only seems to happen when using the -xarch=v9 flag to compile in
64-bit mode, but disabling shared libraries entirely for this compiler is
an easier fix (I don't know how to detect 64 bit mode from the command line).
The framework for disabling shared libraries for other C++ compilers is
in place.
Platforms tested:
sol, mir, sleipnir, modi4
Bug fix/feature
Description:
Disabled shared libraries for a number of Fortran compilers that don't
support them.
This allows other compilers to support shared Fortran libraries.
Solution:
Added a conditional, SHARED_FORTRAN_CONDITIONAL, which is true if
Fortran supports shared libraries. It is set in configure.in.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, colonelk, heping
Bug fix
Description:
Building with --disable-static seems to have been broken on several platforms.
Fixed this.
Configure will now disable shared libraries automatically when using pgf90
or when building on Cygwin.
Solution:
To avoid errors when using shared libraries with pgf90 (which I had not
realized were compiler-specific), I had manually set convenience libraries
to use the -static linking flag. Apparently, this is not necessary, and
caused these libraries to be created as empty archives when --disable-static
was used.
Also, some libraries were including other libraries, which was not
necessary.
I also fixed code in configure.in to correctly detect whether shared
or static libraries are enabled, and moved code that disables shared libraries
to before libtool is created (rather than editing libtool after the fact).
Despite repeated warnings that only one shared library can be linked at a
time, I have yet to have shared libraries break the linking of tests on
any system. We'll see if the Daily Tests turn up anything.
Platforms tested:
mir (fortran, C++), sleipnir (C++), modi4 (fortran, C++, parallel),
sol (fortran, C++), cygwin
Bug fix
Description:
Errors on sol may have been due to "make clean" being run both
manually and by automake. Removed the manual run.
Also cleaned c++/examples/ii_files directory created by some compilers
(e.g., on modi4).
Solution:
This does mean that examples directories will not be cleaned by
'make clean'.
Platforms tested:
sol, mir, heping, modi4
tidy up.
Description:
MPE option created *.clog file whenever it is executed in MPI.
The cleanup of *.clog files were done in individual Makefile.in.
Often, it is forgotten.
Solution:
Moved the cleaning of *.clog files to CHECK_CLEANFILES in commence.am
so that it is applied whenever check-clean is called.
Platforms tested:
heping pp using MPE.
Bug fixes
Description:
This checkin fixes an occasional error on kelgia on sol during distclean.
It also causes test scripts to depend properly on the programs they're
supposed to be testing.
Solution:
The kelgia bug was due to some files being cleaned by automake and manually.
Removed the manual cleaning in src/Makefile.am.
Test script dependencies now need to be specified manually, since the
makefile can't guess what they test from their name. Currently all test
scripts in a given directory have a single list of dependencies--this was
easy and seems to be sufficient.
These dependencies are listed in the SCRIPT_DEPEND variable in the Makefile.am.
Platforms tested:
heping, mir, modi4, sol
Misc. update:
minor tidy up.
Description:
Changed both test programs and test scripts to use the same suffixes
(.chkexe and .chklog). Changed from .log to .chklog to avoid running
into potential conflicts by other "things" (e.g., config.log).
Tested:
Heping.
Description:
Forgot to modify the examples for the "using" declaration changes
in the library. Added "using" declaration appropriately.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (heping) - very minor
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 and improvement.
Description:
The test output were not displayed for parallel tests.
The serial tests output were always displayed whether the test was
actually ran this time or not.
Solution:
Moved the display of test output inside the target where the actual
tests are run.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping using pp and fortran.
Bug fix and code minor cleanup.
Description:
The attempt to redirect stderr together to the log files were
done in the wrong order such that stderr output goes to where
stdout WAS. Fixed that.
Code minor cleanup--use shell variables to hold the name of the
log file and the test instead of generating them repeatedly. This
makes easier code reading, less crowded and avoid typos.
Only conclude.in is changed. The Makefile.in changes are all
derived from automake.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Misc. update:
Description:
Added wrapper for H5Iget_type.
Added try/catch to many APIs that call private functions so that more
specific information can be provided at failure.
Added IdComponent::inMemFunc to help providing specific info.
Added const to parameters of several functions that missed that.

Description:
Changed CompType::getMemberClass to use H5Tget_member_class
instead of going around unneccesarily.
Changed "int member_num" to "unsigned member_num" of several
member functions of CompType, per the C library change.
Platforms tested:

Makefile feature
Description:
'make check-clean' now cleans *.h5 files created by tests as well as
.log and .chkexe files.
Solution:
check-clean is now a separate target in its own right, which cleans less
than mostlyclean (check-clean < mostlyclean < clean < distclean).
Platforms tested:
mir, heping, modi4 (serial and parallel)
Feature: check-clean target
Description:
'make check-clean' cleans up output files from tests.
Solution:
Tests create foo.chkexe and foo.log files. Scripts create foo.chksh and
foo.logsh files. 'make check-clean' will clean these files up so that
the tests can be re-run.
Also suppressed some not-very-useful output of Makefiles when it would
echo commands.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Misc. update:
Description:
PropList::copyProp has incorrect prototype; although it works,
it does cause users inconvenience.
Solution:
Added another overloaded function with correct prototype. The
old version will be removed in a future release. In the meantime,
"Obsolete" will be displayed in its RM page.
Also, changed several checks on the returned value of a C API from
non-positive to negative because id = 0 is no longer significant,
now that the C++ reference counting had been removed.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (heping)
IRIX64 with -n32 (modi4)
Linux 2.4 w/PGI (colonelk)
Description:
Added these missing member functions:
AbstractDs::getArrayType
AbstractDs::getVarLenType
CommonFG::openArrayType
CommonFG::openVarLenType
CompType::getMemberArrayType
CompType::getMemberVarLenType
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (heping)
IRIX64 with -n32 (modi4)
Linux 2.4 w/PGI (colonelk)
Configuration feature
Description:
Serial test output is now stored in log files and printed when all tests
in a directory complete, or when a test fails. This should make test output
more readable and useful.
Also made changes to clean up ii_files directories that are created by some
C++ compilers/linkers.
Also fixed a few minor Makefile bugs.
Solution:
When serial tests run, their output is saved in *.log or *.logsh. While
running, tests only print when they begin and when they complete; their
more specific output (from the log file) is printed if the test fails or
when all tests have completed.
Comments welcome.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4 (parallel and serial), copper, shanti
Bug fixes
Description:
A number of minor changes to Makefiles. Some files will now be cleaned
properly, some comments are more informative, etc.
Platforms tested:
heping, mir, modi4
Description:
The use of FileCreatPropList::DEFAULT sometimes caused failure
in the reference counting area. This occurs to all the default
property lists, which also include FileAccPropList::DEFAULT,
DSetCreatPropList::DEFAULT, and DSetMemXferPropList::DEFAULT.
H5P_DEFAULT was used to create these default prop lists and
because its value is 0, the id of these prop lists are 0, which
is rejected by the H5I functions during the reference counting.
Solution:
The main action to fix the above problem was to use
H5P_FILE_CREATE
H5P_FILE_ACCESS
H5P_DATASET_CREATE
H5P_DATASET_XFER
to define the default property lists accordingly. Yet, when this
fix was applied, some bug in reference counting was revealed.
It appeared that some ids were not incremented but were passed in
for decrementing. The following actions were then taken to fix and
improve the current use of reference counting H5I functions.
* added private func IdComponent::p_valid_id to verify that the
id is a valid id and can be passed into an H5I function
* used p_valid_id to validate an id before calling an H5I functions
in the reference-counting member functions incRefCount,
decRefCount, and getCounter
* changed to use member function incRefCount, decRefCount, and
getCounter instead of the C APIs H5Iinc_ref, H5Idec_ref, and
H5Iget_ref throughout IdComponent.
In addition, overloadings were added for incRefCount, decRefCount,
and getCounter to take an id different than the id of the current
instance; they can be convenient during debugging.

Bug fix
Description:
The ".chksh" file for a test script was being created in the "source"
location rather than the build location. This can cause problems when
multiple builds are running because "slower" machines will see the ".cshsh"
file from faster machines and will not run the test script as they should.
Solution:
Use 'basename' command to strip off the path of the script and create
the ".chksh" file in the build location.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
h5committest
bug fix.
Description:
-nt is not a universal option for the test command in all platforms.
The use of it in conclude.am cause some platforms to bark at the
Makefile generated.
Solution:
Created a command script bin/newer which tests if file1 is newer
than file2. Replace the "test file1 -nt file2" by
"newer file1 file2".
Platforms tested:
Tested in sol.
Bug fix
Description:
Added dependencies to examples Makefiles so that examples can be run in
parallel.
Solution:
The examples directories (for C, C++, and Fortran) all have some dependencies
explicitly spelled out in their Makefiles.am. This is a good short-term
solution, and should prevent errors in the Daily Tests.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4 (parallel and sequential)
Bug fix
Description:
Fixed bugs that caused tests to be unable to find testhdf5.sh during
daily tests, and another that broke sol and shanti.
Solution:
When tests are run, their path is ./$testname .
When scripts are run, their path has no leading "./". Fixed.
Sol and shanti don't recognize the -e option for test, but they do know
-f. Fixed.
Also modified release notes.
Platforms tested:
mir, shanti, heping
Feature: tests now use parallel make and only run once
Description:
When make is invoked in parallel (using the -j option), several tests will
now be run simultaneously. This should speed up testing on a number of
systems.
When a test passes, it creates a foo.chkexe or foo.chksh file, which prevents
the test from running again unless the test or library changes.
Solution:
Most of the changes live in config/conclude.am. Added *.chkexe and *.chksh
files to the list of files to be cleaned at "make mostlyclean" time.
Parallel tests still run one at a time, but use the same make instructions
as serial tests.
Platforms tested:
mir, eirene, sleipnir, pommier, copper, modi4 (some errors occurred, probably
due to the test being run before updating hdf5. Will re-run tests after
checkin.)
Description:
- Added another overloaded CommonFG::getComment so the user will not
have to provide the comment's length.
- Added wrappers for H5Gget_comment when the comment is to be removed,
CommonFG::removeComment.
- Corrected several 'delete' statements
Platforms tested:

bug fix
Description:
check-s and check-p were set as pre-requistics of test. They
would get executed in parallel if parallel make is used. This
could cause problems since serial tests are used to be executed
before parallel tests. It is not known if it is always okay to
run serial and parallel tests in simultantously.
Solution:
Change check-s and check-p as actions of the target test so
that they get executed sequnentially.
Platforms tested:

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.

Code cleanup
Description:

Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Minor feature
Description:
If a user configures without C++ or Fortran, 'make' will not recurse into
c++ or fortran directories. However, if the user cd's into these
directories and 'makes,' the Makefiles will attempt to build interfaces
that have not been configured, usually failing.
In an unrelated but minor change, src/H5detect should be compiled with
the -g flag to disable compiler optimizations since it is only
executed once.
Solution:
Make it harder for users to try to compile interfaces that have not been
configured by making c++, fortran, and hl directories not recurse into
their subdirectories unless they have been configured.
Thus, 'make' in /fortran/src will break if Fortran has not been configured,
but 'make' in /fortran will not break.
Platforms tested:

Misc. update:
Description: Removed support for SRB driver
Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure
to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files.

Misc. update: ran bin/chkmanifest on heping
Configuration feature
Description:
Different Fortran compilers mangle function names in different ways
(upper case, lower case, adding underscores). To link between
Fortran and C functions, we need to know what a given function's
name is under a given compiler.
Solution:
Use autoconf's FC_WRAPPERS check to determine the Fortran
naming scheme and define the FC_FUNC_ macro to name our
functions (in H5f90proto.h). Removed references to
our old FNAME macro, as well as flags that indicated whether
function names were upper or lower case.

Bug fix
Description:
On some machines, $RUNSERIAL variable needs to be used to run
tests. Set $RUNTESTS (which is used for non-parallel tests) to
be $RUNSERIAL in configure.am.
Also, since I was updating all Makefiles.in anyway, I updated
commence.am to point to autotools installs in AFS instead of
those on heping.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4, copper
Purpose:
"Bug fix"
Description:
Hardcoded Makefiles to use /bin/sh instead of letting configure
detect shell automatically. This is what v1.6 does, and avoids

Feature - conditional compilation
Description:
SRB file driver and tests are now compiled only when SRB is enabled
(using --with-srb during configure).
Solution:
Added an automake conditional in configure.in, altered Makefiles.am in
src and test directories to depend on that conditional.
This should make a nice example for posterity to add conditionally
compiled sources.
Platforms tested:

Purpose:
Added C++ wrapper for Packet Table API.
Description:

Automake version upgrade
Description:
Upgraded automake version from 1.6.2 to 1.9.5.
Changed bin/reconfigure script to use automake 1.9.5.
Changed configure.in and Makefiles to use new FCFLAGS and FC variables
instead of FFLAGS and F9X.
Automake and configure should now do the lion's share of the work
supporting Fortran 9X; macros in acsite.m4 are now mostly unused (will
be cleaned later).
Altered how configure handles pmake; now root-level Makefile.in is
processed by bin/reconfigure to have a .MAKEFLAGS target, since
automake no longer allows us to define unused variables.
Configure now always checks for C++ compiler even if it is not
used, since automake thinks this is the Right Thing To Do and
will break otherwise.
Platforms tested:
Sol, copper, heping, mir, sleipnir, eirene, pommier, kelgia, modi4.
Removed GASS configuration and software packages associated with
it. The following software are no longer configurable.

Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
modi4 dies during build with strange errors.
The root cause of these is a two-year-old hack in HDF5's libtool
script that only takes effect on IRIX.
Solution:
Edited the libtool hack (by editing ltmain.sh) to correct a bug in
the hack.
Also made sure that compiler-specific DEFAULT_LIBS are used
when linking.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, sol
Bug fix
Description:
pmake (on modi4, for instance) complains about undefined variables
if it is run without the -V flag, which turns those errors to warnings.
Solution:
Added test to configure.in to see if $MAKE will allow Makefiles
with undefined variables. If not, sets -V flag in AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Ensured that all custom make targets use AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Also defined all variables that caused errors in top-level Makefile.am.
This means that pmake can be used to build hdf5 *from the top level
only*. To run make from a subdirectory, still need to use -V flag
(or use make or gmake).

Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE macro to configure.in.
Now automake will never try to regenerate Makefiles, Makefiles.in,
configure, H5config.h, etc. when they are out of date, nor will it
print any warnings.
Developers should be very very careful to use reconfigure script,
and can add --enable-maintainer-mode flag to configure on heping
to regenerate these files correctly.
Platforms tested:

Bug fix
Description:
Configuration files' timestamps were incorrect.
Solution:
Update Makefiles.in. Also added correct paths to autotools on heping,

Bug fix
Description:
Dependencies between configure files (aclocal, configure.in, configure,
Makefiles.am and .in) are still causing Makefiles to try to run autotools
