Update
Description:
Changed includes of the form:
#include <hdf5_file.h>
to
#include "hdf5_file.h"
so that gcc can pick them up easier without including the system
header files since we don't care about them.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Bug fix (sort of)
Description:
The RCSID string in H5public.h was causing the C++ code problem as it
was included multiple times and C++ did not like multiple definitions
of the same static variable.
Solution:
Since we don't really make use of the RCSID strings as we have not
installed it in all source files, we decided to remove it.
Platforms tested:
eirene (linux), modi4 (IRIX64-64) both serial and parallel modes.
New Feature
Description:
Added array datatype tests to the regression tests. These datatype
combinations are tested currently:
1-D array of atomic datatypes
3-D array of atomic datatypes
array of array of atomic datatypes
array of compound of atomic datatypes
array of compound of array datatypes
array of VL of atomic datatypes
array of VL of array datatypes
Also added a test to verify that the older style compound datatype with
array fields works correctly.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.1.1 (hawkwind)
Bug fix
Description:
"Time" datatypes (H5T_UNIX_D*) were not being stored and retrieved in
the datatype object header message correctly.
Solution:
Store endian-ness and precision in the datatype object header message and
added test to continue to track them working correctly.
This fixes bug #512.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.1.1 (hawkwind)
The "FILENAME" declared extern in h5test.h is not always used.
It was used in h5_cleanup to remove temporary files created
during tests. Not all tests codes have used this routine.
Indeed, quite a few of test programs do "#define FILENAME ".
Also, h5_cleanup needs to work in tandem with h5_fixname.
h5_fixname accepts an explicite base_name argument instead
of using the global variable FILENAME. That is cleaner.
Solution:
Added char *base_name[] as a new argument to h5_cleanup, in
the same style as h5_fixname. Removed "extern char *FILENAME..."
from use. Also, undo some unnecessary declaration of "char *FILENAME"
from some tests which don't use it at all (yet).
Platforms tested:
modi4-64(irix64), arabica(solari2.7), eirene(linux)
(arabica could not launch tests automatically. I had to hack
in LD_LIBRARY_PATH to make them run.)
----------------------
./src/H5T.c
Fixed a typo in the registration of the `unsigned char' to
`unsigned long long' type conversion that caused it to not be
registered, falling back to software whenever that conversion
path was taken.
./MANIFEST
./test/Makefile.in
./test/testhdf5.c
./test/testhdf5.h
./test/theap.c [REMOVED]
./test/lheap.c [NEW]
./test/tohdr.c [REMOVED]
./test/ohdr.c [NEW]
./test/tstab.c [REMOVED]
./test/stab.c [NEW]
Removed the `t' from the front of these names and made each
test a stand-alone program following the format of most of the
other tests.
./test/big.c
Uses libh5test.a but always sets the low-level driver to 1GB
file family.
The `#if' near the top to set the data space to 8GB has been
simplified now that `long_long' is always defined and the
error message is improved when `long_long' isn't wide enough.
Cleanup code was added to the error handling.
./test/gheap.c
./test/istore.c
Uses libh5test.a. Added error cleanup code.
./test/dtypes.c
./test/h5test.c
Added 68 new tests that check hardware and software
conversions between `long long' and `unsigned long long' and
the other integer types. The tests only run on machines where
sizeof(long_long)!=sizeof(long). We test a total of 180
different integer conversions, half in hardware and half in
software.
Cut down the number of times each test is run from 5 to 1 so
it doesn't take so long. If you want to run more times
there's a constant that can be changed at the top of the file.
./test/extend.c
Removed unused variable.
./test/h5test.c
./test/h5test.h
./test/external.c
./test/fillval.c
The h5_cleanup() returns true/false so it can be used in an `if'
statement to clean up additional files.
./doc/html/Environment.html
Indented. Added HDF5_PREFIX and HDF5_DRIVER descriptions.
./src/H5P.c
Changed the trace type for the second argument from `Iu' to
`x' since it's an output parameter.
./INSTALL
Added a warning that the GNU zlib that comes with the latest
version of HDF4 is too old to use with HDF5 and must be
renamed so configure doesn't see it when `--enable-hdf4' is
used.
----------------------
./doc/html/H5.format.html
./src/H5Oattr.c
./src/H5Odtype.c
./src/H5Oefl.c
./src/H5Olayout.c
./src/H5Osdspace.c
./src/H5Oshared.c
Added version numbers to some object header messages so we can
update them easier in the future. The library currently just
gives up if the version numbers don't match, but in the future
the library could handle multiple versions of a message.
./test/testhdf5.c
Removed an argument from the H5version() call that I missed
last time.
----------------------
./src/H5Flow.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
./src/H5Fsplit.c
Changed the allocation size request from `size_t' to `hsize_t'
because it was overflowing for the `big' test.
./src/H5detect.c
If `long double' and `double' are the same size then we define
H5T_NATIVE_LDOUBLE to be the same as H5T_NATIVE_DOUBLE.
Similarly for `long' vs. `long long' and `unsigned long' vs.
`unsigned long long'.
./test/Makefile.in
Added `big' to the list of tests to normally run.
./test/big.c
Added a check to see if the file system supports holes and if
it doesn't then the test is skipped.
./RELEASE
Added a couple minor details details about API tracing and
symbolic links.
./src/H5public.h
Added comments about the use of hbool_t. Fixed a comment
spelling error.
./test/testhdf5.h
Changed the way the version number is printed. The old method
was `hdf5-1.2.3d' and the new method is `hdf5 version 1.2
release 3'
./tools/h5ls.c
Only prints the max dimension if it differs from the current
dimension or if verbose mode is enabled. Added switches `-?',
`-h', and `--help' to print a usage message. Added switches
`-v' and `--verbose' to generate more verbose output. Added
switches `-V' and `--version' to print the version number and
exit. The version number is printed like: This is h5ls
version 1.0 release 24'
./bin/h5vers [NEW]
This script prints, sets, and/or increments the hdf5 version
number. It can be run from the top directory or any of the
child directories like src, tools, test, etc. Some examples:
$ h5vers # Display current version
1.0.24
$ h5vers -v
version 1.0 release 24 # Display current version.
$ h5vers -s 5.2.8 # Set version and display
5.2.8
$ h5vers -s 2.1
2.1.0
$ h5vers -s hdf5-1.0.24a.tar.bz2
1.0.24
$ h5vers -s 'version 2.0 release 8'
2.0.8
$ h5vers -s 'junk 22 junk 33 more junk 66 and 99 junk'
33.66.99
$ h5vers -i major # Increment from 1.0.24
2.0.0
$ h5vers -i minor # Increment from 1.0.24
1.1.0
$ h5vers -i release # Increment from 1.0.24
1.0.25
$ h5vers ~/hdf5/src/H5public.h # Use an alternate file
1.0.24
./bin/checkapi [NEW]
Run from the src directory with arguments H5[A-Z]*.c and it
will print the locations of each place where an API function
was called from within the library. Use it as the compile or
grep command under Emacs and you can C-x ` through the list.
./bin/debug-ohdr [NEW]
Keeps track of H5O_open() and H5O_close() debugging messages
and lists the file addresses of the object headers that are
opened but never closed. You must enable the `o' debugging at
configuration time and pipe stderr into this script.
./bin/errors
Added a note to indicate that this script no longer works
because of changes in the HRETURN_ERROR() and HGOTO_ERROR()
macros.
./bin/iostats [NEW]
Watches output from the Linux strace program and accumulates
statistics about low-level access to an hdf5 file. The output
is a list of 2d data points which can be plotted by gnuplot to
show file seeking behavior.
./MANIFEST
Added new files.
to cleanup temporary files used by that particular module.
Added a cleanup() routine to testhdf5 that calls all the other
cleanup_xxx() routines to do cleanup.
Cleanup action can be disabled either by -c (no cleanup) option
or HDF5_NOCLEANUP environment variable.

./src/H5private.h
./src/H5public.h
./test/dsets.c
./test/dtypes.c
Removed all the types like `int32' and `intn' into private
headers since they violate the naming scheme and pollute
application name space. Besides, our test files only use them
in a handful of places and it's probably useless to export
them to the app. The app is always written in terms of
standard numeric types or its own numeric types and probably
never in terms of HDF5 numeric types. If it were, then the
user would have to copy from their type to hdf5 type for
almost every hdf5 API function call! Same goes for return
values. I also removed SUCCEED/FAIL from the API since apps
should be checking against zero anyway.
if (FAIL==(space=H5Screate_simple(...))) /*wrong*/
if ((space=H5Fcreate_simple(...)<0)) /*right*/
./src/H5.c
Changed arguments of H5version() from `uintn' to `unsigned'.
./src/H5Tpublic.h
./src/H5T.c
Changed return type of H5Tget_nmembers() from `intn' to `int'
./src/H5A.c
./src/H5Aprivate.h
./src/H5Apublic.h
Changed `H5Asearch_func_t' to `H5A_search_func_t' and moved
its definition from the public to the private header file.
./html/H5.format.html
Documented changes made to the external file list (H5O_EFL)
message.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Dprivate.h
./src/H5E.c
./src/H5Epublic.h
./src/H5O.c
./src/H5Oefl.c
./src/H5Oprivate.h
./src/H5P.c
./src/H5Ppublic.h
Added partial support for external raw data files. HDF5 can
now describe external raw data files by listing the file
names, offsets, and size for a dataset. However, we will
restrict a dataset to be stored "contiguously" when the
external file list is viewed as a single address space. The
current implementation is unable to read/write to external
files--that will come later this week as will documentation.
For now, take a look at ./test/external.c, particularly the
calls to H5Pset_external().
./test/Makefile.in
./test/external.c [NEW]
./MANIFEST
Added tests for external storage. Note: the read test is
supposed to fail at this point since reading external datasets
is not implemented yet. There is no write test.
./src/H5S.c
./src/H5Sprivate.h
./src/H5Ssimp.c
Added H5S_get_npoints_max() to return the maximum possible
number of data points in a data space.
Added an extra argument to H5S_get_dims() which returns the
maximum dims.
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
./src/H5Fpublic.h
./src/H5M.c [DEPRICATED]
./src/H5Mpublic.h [DEPRICATED]
Changed `template' to `property list' in lots of places.
./src/H5Osdspace.c
Removed an extra `\n' from a print statement.
./src/H5S_public.h
Changed H5S_UNLIMITED to the maximum size_t value.
./test/extend.c
"Extendable" is spelled "extendible".
./src/H5Farray.c
./src/H5V.c
./src/H5Vprivate.h
./test/hyperslab.c
Strides are now type ssize_t instead of int. These have
nothing to do with the sample granularity arguments for
hyperslabs, which are also called "strides" in the code.
./test/tstab.c
Changed assumptions about default address and length sizes.
----------------------
./html/Errors.html [NEW]
./html/H5.user.html
./MANIFEST
Documents the new error handling interface and gives examples.
./src/H5.c
./src/H5private.h
./src/H5Apublic.h
./src/H5E.c
./src/H5Eprivate.h
./src/H5Epublic.h
Rewrote error handling. Got rid of `push' overloading and
added a few API functions. The error stack is statically
allocated and not entered into H5A, simplifying error handling
within the error handler. Rudimentary support for threads.
Changed the names of some errors.
./src/H5G.c
./src/H5Gnode.c
./src/H5H.c
./src/H5O.c
./src/H5T.c
Changed H5ECLEAR to H5E_clear().
./src/Makefile.in
Alphabetized source list.
./test/dsets.c
Turned off error reporting around functions that are expected
to fail. Error messages are sent to stdout.
./test/testhdf5.c
./test/testhdf5.h
Turned off automatic error reporting since this file mostly
calls internal functions and does its own error reporting.
while he is visiting LLNL. I changed the default creation template
offset and length to 4. Will fix the problem later.

allowed to cache only constant meta data. Fixed naming.
./src/H5O.c
./src/H5Oprivate.h
Access to object headers is always done through a symbol table
entry instead of a file address. Added stubs for opening and
closing object headers to be used when deletion is implemented.

changes to those interfaces.
./test/tohdr.c
./test/tmeta.c
./test/theap.c
./test/tfile.c
./test/testhdf5.h
./test/testhdf5.c
Changed the MESSAGE macro so it doesn't have a semicolon
inside the argument list and automatic indentation tools work
better.
Old call: MESSAGE (5, printfunc("foo%s %d", s, i););
New call: MESSAGE (5, ("foo%s %d", s, i));
The parentheses are required.
