Description: Removed support for SRB driver
Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure
to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files.
Platforms tested: heping and shanti
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
problems on janus.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, mir
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:
heping (only configure change)
Purpose:
Added C++ wrapper for Packet Table API.
Description:
Added macro for high-level C++ library (LIBH5CPP_HL), which changes every
Makefile.in.
Added directories for high-level C++ library (though currently only Packet
Table API is supported).
Added both C++ source and tests.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, mir, modi4
Misc. update:
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.
checking for main in -lcrypto... yes
checking for SSL_get_version in -lssl... yes
checking globus_common.h usability... yes
checking globus_common.h presence... yes
checking for globus_common.h... yes
checking for globus_module_activate in -lglobus_common... yes

checking for main in -lglobus_gass_transfer_assist... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gass_transfer... yes
checking for globus_gass_open in -lglobus_gass_file... yes
Platforms tested:
h5committested (but copper was down.) tested in modi4 too.
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).
Platforms tested:
modi4, heping, copper, sleipnir
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Parallel builds were breaking in tools/lib
Solution:
talign didn't realize it depended on libh5tools.la because its
dependencies listed the full path (../../tools/lib/libh5tools.la).
Changed this, and made similar changes in a couple of other
directories.
This checkin should also add the --foreign flag to every Makefile.in
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (minor change)
New feature
Description:
Add basic code for new B-tree implementation. They don't do much yet,
aren't hooked up to anything yet and the format may change, but I'd like to
start getting them into the daily tests.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Found the permanant fix to automake/CVS dependency problem
Solution:
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:
heping sleipnir copper
Bug fix
Description:
Configuration files' timestamps were incorrect.
Solution:
Update Makefiles.in. Also added correct paths to autotools on heping,
so heping build should be able to re-generate configuration files even
if they are still broken.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir
Bug fix
Description:
Dependencies between configure files (aclocal, configure.in, configure,
Makefiles.am and .in) are still causing Makefiles to try to run autotools
during build.
Solution:
Committed all Makefiles.in to update their timestamps.
As a temporary measure, forcibly prevented automake from running
autotools during build by redefining the variables it uses.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (No changes to Makefile content)
Bug fix
Description:
Different compilers use different flags to include Fortran module files
Solution:
Changed boilerplate to use configure variable rather than hardcoded -M flag.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, sol, copper
Configuration feature
Description:
HDF5 now uses automake to generate Makefiles
Solution:
Makefile.in files are now generated from Makefile.am files.
To reconfigure (after chaning a Makefile.am or configure.in):
/bin/sh bin/reconfigure.sh

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:
Bug fix, sorta.
Description:
Revert change to H5Pget_data_transform() which changed len of buffer
returned to be inconsistent with H5Iget_name(), etc. We should discuss this
change and apply it to all the similar functions if we decide to change the
return value.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Added data transform example
Description:
Added example code for the data dtransform
Solution:
This code both illustrates how data transform works and shows how to use it.
Examples of data transform on read, write, and both at the same time.
Also shows usage of H5Pget_data_transform
Platforms tested:
eirene + copper
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
The examples would compile even if some header file were not
installed. That was because the CPPFLAGS has -I... components
that included the src directories.
Solution:
The h5cc or h5pcc commands should have all the necessarily
library include directories covered. Changed CPPFLAGS to
search only the examples source directory for local header
files.
Platforms tested:
No h5committest tests which do not check examples.
Hand tested it in sol.
Bug fix, sort of.
Description:
Some compilers, e.g., intel compiler, would take a long time
to compiler H5detect.c if optimization is on.
Solution:
Setup special make rules for H5detect to be compiled always with
optimization off by using -g. Since H5detect is run once to generate H5Tinit.c,
it does not matter that much if it is optimized or not.
Platforms tested:
"h5committested".
Tested in Titan too.
Bug fix
Description:
Hack on include paths some more to make srcdir builds work correctly with
the [broken] dependency generation from the Intel 7.1 C compiler.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (titan) w/srcdir build
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Added directory where actual source code is located to allow broken Intel
C 7.1 compiler to generate dependencies correctly.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (titan)
too minor to need h5committest
Bug fix.
Description:
"make check" failed because the macro "$<" is not known to those
makes.
Solution:
Replace that macro with a string name in the form of a more basic
macro of "$@".
Platforms tested:
h5committested (copper used make.)
Misc. update:
Improvement
Description:
If the library is built in parallel mode, then name the "h5cc" and
"h5fc" programs "h5pcc" and "h5pfc" resp. This saves the user from
worrying about mixing serial and parallel builds of the library and
having to specify the pathnames and so-forth.
Platforms tested:
Linux (w/ parallel & Fortran)
Modi4 (w/ parallel & Fortran)
Sol (Serial & Fortran & C++)
Misc. update:
Updated release/docs/RELEASE
Updated the copyright notice--mostly by rearranging
some text to make them consistent.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
"h5committested"--sol is down, so, no SUn test.
Misc. update:
Purpose: Enhancement
Description: This example writes extendible dataset and doesn't use fill value.
On some systems (verebena, titan) unwritten data will be displayed as
garbage by h5_chunk_read.
Solution: Use H5Pset_fill_value to set 0 fill value.
Platforms tested: arabica, verbena, titan
Misc. update:
Update/Fix
Description:
The Dependencies files weren't begin generated properly for C++.
Solution:
Modified the "dependencies" script to use "top_srcdir" only instead
of "srcdir", which tended to confuse matters. Regenerated the
Dependencies files.
Platforms tested:
Arabica (Small changes)
Misc. update:
Code Cleanup
Description:
Warning messages were being produced by the "make" program because
the "docdir" was being specified twice as a target in the generated
Makefiles. This is because the "EXAMPLESDIR" was also defined as
"docdir".
Solution:
Made "EXAMPLESDIR" unique for C, Fortran, and C++ in the commence.in
file and removed EXAMPLESDIR from the Makefile.ins
Platforms tested:
Dangermouse (only affects make system, not code).
Misc. update:
Improvement
Description:
if neither -f option nor $HDF5_PARAPREFIX was set, it exited.
Solution:
Use '.' (current directory) if neither -f option nor $HDF5_PARAPREFIX
is used. Try to proceed as much as possible.
Platforms tested:
only sleipnir since it was a simple fix and was failing in sleipnir
only.
Bug Fix
Description:
Making of the programs when using the --srcdir option didn't work. It
couldn't find the files to compile.
Solution:
Specified where the files are by prepending the $(srcdir) macro to
them.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Bug Fix
Description:
Ported the bug fix for h5cc failing on platforms from the 1.4 branch
to 1.5 branch. In a nutshell, when we ran "make check" in the
examples directory, libtool would get in the way trying to compile
things to .lo for us. but we didn't want libtool to do this.
Solution:
Made it so that make check will compile only the .c files to
executables without the intervening .lo stage...
Platforms tested:
Linux (Dangermouse and Platinum)
fetures
Description:
The example code used to just run parallel I/O test in the current
directory which is most likely where the program is compiled.
In general, this directory is most likely not a parallel file system.
Therefore, the example code often fails.
Solution:
Add an option "-f <prefix>" for specifying the correct test files
pathname prefix. The program now requires an explicite file prefix
either via the "-f" option or the environment variable $HDF5_PARAPREFIX.
(With the proper setup of $HDF5_PARAPREFIX, the example code can run
automatically in situtaions such as batch job or gmake check.)
Also added feature to cleaup up the test files created.
Of course, an added option "-c" to turn OFF the cleanup action.
Platforms tested:
eirene, modi4, dangermouse (all parallel modes).
modi4 (serial) just to verify it can compile.
Feature
Description:
Change examples to use the installed h5cc to compile the examples
programs. That will test the correctness of the installed software.
Removed examples from make targets in the top level so that it does
not get invoked in make or make check since one cannot compile
the example programs until after "make install" has completed.
Platforms tested:
eirene and modi4 (parallel)
Retired run_examples.sh. Its purpose is covered by the
"check" target.
Platforms tested:
No tests--hard to test something that is removed. Pretty
sure it is not needed by any Make targets.
Bug fix
Description:
$TEST_PROG_PARA was included in the serial tests.
$TEST_PROG_PARA was not dependent on $LIBHDF5 (it should.)
Solution:
Adjusted the file to fix both problems.
Platforms tested:
eirene (pp, linux 2.2.), dangermouse (pp, linux 2.4)
modi4 (pp, -64) and modi4 serial (to verify that ph5example was not
tested at all.)
Removing the DPSS (gridstorage) driver source code.
Description:
The DPSS (using Grid-Storage) driver is retired.
Removed the configure option with-gridstorage from configure.in.
Cvs remove the following files
./src/H5FDdpss.c
./src/H5FDdpss.h
./test/dpss_read.c
./test/dpss_write.c
Regenerated Dependencies files (some had to be hand-edited since
'make depend' did not cover them.)
Removed reference to DPSS Virtual file driver from H5F.c.
Platforms tested:
modi4 (Parallel; -with-gass=...), eirene, arabica (fortran, cxx).
Bug Fix.
Description:
The H5Rget_object_type function could not get the object type for dataset
region references.
Solution:
Added a new function, H5Rget_obj_type, to replace H5Rget_object_type.
The new function requires the reference type as an additional parameter,
in order to allow queries on different reference types to be performed
correctly.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4. (sleipnir)
Code cleanup for better compatibility with C++ compilers
Description:
C++ compilers are choking on our C code, for various reasons:
we used our UNUSED macro incorrectly when referring to pointer types
we used various C++ keywords as variables, etc.
we incremented enum's with the ++ operator.
Solution:
Changed variables, etc.to avoid C++ keywords (new, class, typename, typeid,
template)
Fixed usage of UNUSED macro from this:
char UNUSED *c
to this:
char * UNUSED c
Switched the enums from x++ to x=x+1
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
Purpose:
Feature Add
Description:
Added "install-example" and "install-all" to the Makefile system.
The behaviour of the "make install*" options:
make install - Installs binaries, libraries, include
files, and example programs.
make install-examples - Installs only the example programs.
The directories are:
${prefix}/doc/hdf5/examples/{c,c++,fortran}
make install-all - Install the binaries, libraries, include
files, example programs, and
documentation. The whole kit-n'-caboodle.
make uninstall-examples - Get rid of those example files (but not
the ${prefix}/doc/hdf5/examples/...
directories)
There's a new bin/ program which helps create directories which are
deeply nested called "mkdirs". It's a simple shell script.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Feature
Description:
Added an example program showing how to use different virtual
file drivers. First example is to show the Split File driver.
Platforms tested:
eirene.
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The way we were generating Dependencies and .depend files was broken.
If the $srcdir or other macros began with a ".", then it would match
anything and cause problems since it would then overwrite the
beginning of the header file's path.
Solution:
Wrote a Perl script which can handle this type of weirdness better.
It's only used when the environment is a GNU one with a GCC
compiler...
Platforms tested:
Linux
