Update windows project file
Description:
Eliminate the link to non-existing HL headers.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
windows MSVS 6.0
Won't affect other platforms and too minor to check with other windows compilers.
Misc. update:
Description: More work on the test script: added all current UNIX tests.
Solution:
Platforms tested: VMS server; many tests failed but I think it is false negative.
will investigate, but for now, let's save the code.
Misc. update:
Bug #281
Description:
The previous fix for bug #281 was not safe. Files got corrupted in
some cases. Needs a more comprehensive fix for it. Undo the unsafe
fix for now.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
new feature
Description:
added support for h5dump to dump binary data using the file type format
added one test to the test script that tests this
Solution:
Platforms tested:
mir
shanti
copper
Misc. update:
Added/adjusted Test Express mode.
Description:
btree2:
Added TestExpress mode to skip some long tests (the 5th recursive and
the two random tests.)
fheap:
Changed the express mode messages to be more informative.
Un-excluded some tests from express mode.
Platforms tested:
Red Storm.
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
New feature
Description:
Check in Peter's code to add support for "shallow copy", "create
intermediate groups", "no attributes" and "expand soft links" support.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (chicago) w/ & w/o group-revision enabled
h5committest
new feature. h5dump output of binary data
Description:
a new switch -b FILE_NAME that dumps the contents of memory data to file FILE_NAME in binary form
new program binread.c that reads the contents of this file and outputs it to stdout
added a test for the h5dump shell script that does a run of -b
the binread.c program reads the data used in this run, usage is ./binread FILE_NAME
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
Description: Mac OS 10.4 on PowerPC chip has some errors to convert (unsigned)
long long to long double. When the bit sequences are 0x003ff..., 0x007fff...,
0x00ffff..., 0x01ffff..., 0x7fffff..., the converted values are twice as big
as they should be.
Solution: Detect the error in configure and disable the compiler conversion
and test case.
Platforms tested: h5committest, Mac OS 10.4, and fuss.
Description: Added support for HPUX11.23
Solution: Added configuration file for the system.
Both C, C++, F90, HL 32-bit and 64-bit are supported. Known problems:
C++ library will not build in 64-bit mode if shared is enabled.
Platforms tested: HPUX 11.23 at UMKC
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Since the new default Express level is 1, some fheap tests were being skipped.
Solution:
At least temporarily, fheap now skips these tests if it is run at express level 2
or greater.
Platforms tested:
mir
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:
mir (Makefile change only)
testing feature
Description:
HDF5 Test Express change; now accepts values 0 to 3.
Solution:
As explained in the RFC and documented in the code, there are now four
levels of "express-ness", 0 (no limit) to 3 (1 min limit).
It is now up to test writers to take advantage of the various levels
to tune their tests' run times.
Platforms tested:
mir (minor change)
Description: Added a command file for testing tools; it has a framework
to do exactly (almost) what UNIX tools test scripts do:
- run test tool and save output
- compare output with expected result
- figure out the difference and
- print PASSED /*FAILED* in a manner similar to the UNIX output
It needs to be populated with more tests and reused for other tools.
Solution:
Platforms tested: VMS server
Misc. update:
Description: Data conversion from long double to (unsigned) long long
returns some incorrect values on Mac OS 10.4 and SGI IRIX64 6.5. The
conversions start to go wrong when the long double is
20041683600089727.779961 (0x4351ccf385ebc8a0bfcc2a...). If adjusting
the values higher by assigning 0x...c8a0cf... or 0x...c8a0df..., the
converted values go wild.
Solution: Detect this error in configure.in and disable compiler
conversions from long double to (unsigned) long long for Mac OS 10.4
and IRIX64 6.5.
Platforms tested: h5committest, Mac OS 10.4, and IRIX64 6.5.
Code checkpoint
Description:
Add in more new features for the fractal heap code, mostly bringing in
more ability for deleting objects (which isn't completely working yet).
Also, checkpoint free space manager code, which is essentially complete
(although it needs some more work after the metadata cache has some additional
features)
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (chicago)
h5committest
New feature
Description:
Add '%t' format for HDfprintf() to print htri_t (and hbool_t) values.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (chicago)
h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Don't attempt to merge object header messages when a file is opened
read-only.
Mark the object header dirty when messages are merged, as well as the
particular message affected.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Description: Added new tests for the h5stat tool; added --version flag
to display library version information and updated expected
output files.
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping, shanti
Misc. update:
Description: Added new tests for the h5stat tool; added --version flag
to the h5stat tool to display library version information
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping, shanti
Misc. update:
Description: Added test script and two test files in the tools/misc/testfiles
directory for testing h5stat tool; modified Makefile.am in tools/misc
and configure.in files to run the new test script; reran bin/recofigure
to update relevant configuration files; updated MANIFEST
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping with in place and srcdir builds; will do more testing
after the checkin.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Fix bug which could lead to files with incorrect count of messages in the
header for an object. The exact sequence of operations is complicated and
is described in the release notes.
Solution:
Mark merged null header messages as dirty.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (chicago)
Mac OS/X (amazon)
Bug fix
Description:
Changed the semantics of --enable-stream-vfd and --enable-shared.
Both are now disabled by default when parallel HDF5 is being built.
Solution:
Both shared and stream-vfd are disabled by default in parallel, but can
be enabled explicitly if the user chooses.
Before, shared was always enabled by default and stream-vfd was
always disabled in parallel.
Platforms tested:
heping, mir (configuration change only)
Bug fix - bugzilla #552
Description:
On Cray X1, trying to use : as an argument confused the system.
Solution:
Added a test in configure to see if : as an argument is bad.
If so, skipped the test.
Platforms tested:
mir, Cray X1 (change to configure only)
Update HDF5 Fortran90 type definition file on windows to
reflect the changes in Linux.
Description:
INT has been changed to Fortran_INTEGER in the file.
Solution:
Make the change.
Platforms tested:
Visual fortran 6.6c with MSVS 6.0
Only affects windows.
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
It failed when only 1 is used to test.
Solution:
Cleanup the code a little so that it works for any number
of processes to invoke it.
Platforms tested:
h5committested,
Description:
Fixed typos and re-arranged some functions to be in sync with 1.6.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (heping)
SunOS 5.9 (shanti)
AIX 5.1 (copper)
Description: I am checking in changes for the h5stat tool:
- updated Makefile.am to use tools library
- regenerated Makefile.in
- added command flags to display selected information
- added support for external files and filters
- small output formatting changes
For more information about current features and output see
updated h5stat RFC http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/RFC/h5stat/h5stat-spec.pdf
Solution:
Platforms tested: mir, heping, shanti, copper 64-bit, copper 32-bit parallel
using files from tools/testfiles directory and some NASA files
from our Web site.
Misc. update:
Some collective chunk IO macro names are confusing, change them to more meaningful
names.
Description:
H5Pset_dxpl_mpio_chunk_opt will set a flag so that the library can do one linked IO or mul
ti-chunk IO with collective in chunking storage directly. That is, the library won't do an
alyses to determine this.
The flags for the enum type we used before are:
H5FD_MPIO_OPT_ONE_IO
H5FD_MPIO_OPT_MULTI_IO
They are not good names because of the following two reasons:
1. It doesn't reflect chunking storage
2. OPT is kind of redundant and misleading,
Solution:
We change the names to
H5FD_MPIO_CHUNK_ONE_IO
H5FD_MPIO_CHUNK_MULTI_IO
Platforms tested:
Since only macro names are changed, no need to test with h5committest.
Misc. update:
Some collective chunk IO macro names are confusing, change them to more meaningful
names.

Solution:
We change the names to
H5FD_MPIO_CHUNK_ONE_IO

heping(mpich 1.2.6)
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
Sometimes the parallel prefix is given in the form of nfs:/mnt/pfs which
if given to a non-MPIO VFD like the default H5Fcreate, it would fail.
Called h5_rmprefix which would return the non-prefix component
part of the file name which would be okay for the default H5Fcreate and
such.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping parallel.
Feature
Description:
Sometimes the parallel prefix is given in the form of nfs:/mnt/pfs which
if given to a non-MPIO VFD like the default H5Fcreate, it would fail.
Added a new routine h5_rmprefix which would return the non-prefix component
part of the file name which would be okay for the default H5Fcreate and
such.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping parallel.
Description: Ran /bin/h5vers to change suffix to alpha4 after creating hdf5-1.8.0-alpha3
tar ball and tagging the release with hdf5_1_8_0_alpha3 tag
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
Misc. update: Document some errors in test/dt_arith.c when converting data from
long double to (unsigned) long long and from (unsigned) long long to long double.
Description: Updated VMS installation instructions to reflect support
for the deflate filter; documented scale+offset test failures
when G_FLOAT is used (not IEEE double)
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
Description: There was some logical confusion about the value of the macro
H5_HW_FP_TO_LLONG_NOT_WORKS. It's supposed to be true for Windows, but false
for Unix machines.
Solution: Corrected.
Platforms tested: fuss(Linux) and amazon(MacOS 10.4) - simple change.
Description: dsets and objcopy tests were missing from the command files
Solution: Added appropriate commands to compile and run tests
Platforms tested: VMS server with native float
Misc. update:
Description: Windows doesn't recognize "long long" but "long_long".
Solution: The library defined a more general type "long_long". Use
it instead.
Platforms tested: fuss - simple change.
Added Exress Test mode.
Description:
The test takes a long time to run. It tempted developers to skip the
h5committest.
Solution:
Added Express Test mode to allow tester an option to run it in express
mode (shorter time.) There are already encoded QAK macro which skips
many tests. Follow that pattern to skip tests when HDF5TestExpress is
set.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping, both serial and parallel.
feature.
Description:
Added the option of -64 which is similar to -n32. This is needed by
Atlantia which has the ABI as -n32.
Platforms tested:
Pretty straight forward but not testable by h5committest.
Will be tested when daily tests run.
