Feature "improvement".
Problem:
The Makefile target triggers gmake to redo the whole auto-configure
process if it sees any autoconfigure related files changed. It causes
couple problems. One is that when multiple machines using --srcdir
are running make, they may detect the changes and launch the autoconf
at the same time. These end up as multiple hosts updating the same
srcdir area together--bad things can happen. Another one is that
when one modifies some Makefile.in, then try "make distclean" before
launching the configure process. Instead of cleaning things, it
started a configure, recreate all Makefiles and other files, then
finally come around to do the distclean--who knows what it cleans
by now since the Makefile is changed too. Last problem was that
this auto-process will launch even for command "gmake -n ...".
Solution:
Renamed Makefile target to reconfigure so that the auto-checking
is still available but must be launched explicitedly. If one
wishes to have the auto-checking as default, one may do
alias gmake "\gmake -i reconfigure; gmake \!* ".
Configuration improvement
Problem:
Arabica has a zlib library that is a dynamic lib in /usr/ncsa/lib.
Binary generated would fail to run with a missig libz.so complain
if /usr/ncsa/lib is not in $LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This exposed the
problem that if the binary is linked with -L$mylibpath -lxyz
where libxyz is a dynamic type, the binary can't run if $mylibpath
is not in $LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or equivalent) or as part of the
system default library paths (e.g., /usr/lib, /usr/local/lib).
This problem also caused failures during configure (when trying
to see what format to print long long) and during H5detect.
The base cause is because libtool does not "transfer" the
knowledge of -L$mylibpath to the wrapper file its mode=link
generates.
Solution:
bin/ltmain.sh:
Changed it so that it transfers the libpaths from -Llibpaths
to the wrapper generated. I used the already defined variable
finalize_shlibpath. Not sure it is correct to use it this way.
Need to check on this.
configure.in:
Put in a patch to transfer information from LDFLAGS to LD_LIBRARY_PATH
right before the AC_TRY_RUN. The above fix for ltmain.sh does not
work here because libtool is generated later than this point.
There should be a cleaner way to do this.
Removed the hardcode of NCSA_LT_LINK_EXE because it is no longer
needed.
commence.in:
Removed the hardcode of NCSA_LT_LINK_EXE because it is no longer
needed.
Makefile.in:
Another patch of LDFLAGS to LD_LIBRARY_PATH because I could not
make it to generate H5detect in the wrapper form of libtool.
Need to make it to use the libtool correctly. Later.
Platform tested:
arabica (solaris 2.7)
baldric (solaris 2.6)
The Dependencies files were generated in $srcdir even when
--srcdir is used. It caused conflicts if multiple hosts
are doing make sharing the same $srcdir. It also violated
the rule that --srcdir would not modify the content of $srcdir
which could be on a read-only media like a CD-ROM.
Solution:
Dependencies files are generated in the "current" directory.
Platform tested:
dangermouse (linux), modi4 (IRIX64).
** config/depend1.in
We don't regenerate the Dependencies files if we're compiling in the
source tree because `gcc -MM' doesn't output enough information to
make the result usable when compiling outside the source tree.
** src/H5config.h.in
Regenerated to include HAVE_LIBMPI and HAVE_LIBMPIO because of recent
changes to configure.in
** bin/rpmsync
** config/depend1.in
Tweaks for versions of `make' that can't search directories.
** examples/Dependencies
** src/Dependencies
** test/Dependencies
** testpar/Dependencies
** tools/Dependencies
Regenerated all these with more complete path names.

./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
The /usr/ncsa/{include,lib} directories are only added if they
actually exist. This fixes a warning on some systems.
Checks for the <pdb.h> header file and also for either the PDB or Silo
library, and if found prepares to compile the pdb2hdf program.
./config/distdep
Relative path names for include files are changed to base names since
the makefile contains the logic for searching and since it's likely
that building the .distdep files happed from a location other than
where they would be used in the file system.
./config/conclude.in
Fixed shell errors when `for' loops iterate over nothing for the
`uninstall' target.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Oefl.c
File names for the external files are added to the heap when the
dataset is created instead of when the object header is written. This
fixes a rare infinite recursion bug.
./src/H5FD.c
./src/H5FDpublic.h
Optimization to the free list causes H5FD_alloc() usage to go from >10
seconds to <0.4 second for one example (converting a 30MB equation of
state file from PDB to HDF5 format). The optimization is to simply
keep track of the largest item in the free list and not search the
free list when the largest item is not big enough to satisfy the
request.

If the `backing_store' property is true then a flush causes the entire

the pdb2hdf `--cached' switch.
./src/H5Odtypes.c
Wrapped three long lines.
./tools/Makefile.in
./tools/pdb2hdf.c [NEW]
A PDB-to-HDF5 translator. It only translates meta data -- the
resulting HDF5 points into the PDB file for the raw data.
ltconfig used just an empty source file to test the share lib
compiler options. SUNSpro CC returns succeed though it issues
a warning too. ltconfig did not like the warning.
Changed it to test with a file containing a simple dummy program.
Platform tested: solaris 2.6 and 2.7
config/solaris2.x:
Changed default compiler to "cc" now that Sunpro CC can produce
static and shared codes correctly.
Also added -s to PROD_CFLAGS to produce leaner binary files.
Problems:
libtool generated compiler linking commands with dependency_libs
appended to any dynamic library used but only "-lz -lmfhdf ..." were
appended but "-L...", if used, are not appended. So, the "-lz ..."
information is incomplete and solaris cc does not allow even if the
"-L..." information is provide in later part of the command.
Solution:
Included $LDFLAGS in the building of $(LIB).
irix5.x:
irix6.x:
Added "-s" to PROD_CFLAGS so that production code are striped for
smaller sizes.
Platform Tested:
Solaris 2.6
----------------------
This extensive change is the virtual file layer implementation. I've
ported and tested the sec2, family, and core drivers and only ported
the mpio driver (Albert will test it). So if you need MPIO I would
recommend sticking with the previous version for a while.
You will get a few compile warnings about split and stdio drivers not
being implemented and possibly tracing information not inserted in
some of the drivers. You can safely ignore them but I plan to fix
them.
I'm still working on the split driver because I just realized that it
needs a part of the VFL that isn't written yet.
Documentation is being updated also because there were some minor
changes (mostly just name changes). It should be available on my web
site later this week.

Modified to work with the virtual file layer by calling H5FD_*
functions instead of H5F_low_* functions and by passing file
access and data transfer properties by object ID instead of
pointer.
Changed H5D_transfer_t to H5FD_mpio_xfer_t since the
COLLECTIVE vs. INDEPENDENT transfer mode is specific to the
MPIO file driver.

Added major error number H5E_VFL for virtual file layer
related errors.
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
Changed the logic that controls whether the boot block is
written. Instead of assuming that the first call to write the
boot block is only to allocate space, I've added a function
argument which makes this explicit.
Changed the way files are compared so that a driver-defined
comparison function can be called. Files which belong to
different drivers are always considered different.
Removed H5F_driver_t since file drivers are now identified by
object ID instead of a special non-user-extendible datatype.
Removed all the hard-coded low-level file properties which
have been replaced by the various file drivers.
./src/H5I.c
./src/H5Iprivate.h
Added the H5I_inc_ref() which was removed a few months ago
since we finally have a use for it.
./src/H5Ipublic.h
Added the H5I_VFL object ID type to identify file drivers in
the virtual file layer.
./src/H5MF.c
./src/H5MFprivate.h
Moved all the allocation/deallocation code into the virtual
file layer which allows file drivers to override much of it.
./src/H5P.c
./src/H5Ppublic.h
Moved file driver-specific code into the various file driver
files.
The H5Pcopy() and H5Pclose() functions make calls into the
virtual file driver to manage the memory for driver-specific
file access and data transfer properties.
./src/H5private.h

The `haddr_t' type is now public.

Added a `.PATH' target for Irix pmake which is identical to
the VPATH used by most other `make' programs. Irix 6.5 (or
6.4?) and later `make' ignores VPATH.
Started all beginning-of-line comments with `##' instead of
just `#' because Irix `pmake' barfs on things like the
following because it sees the `# if' as a directive:
# make will barf on the following line
# if running Irix pmake
./config/commence.in [1.3]
Added empty definitions for optional `make' macros because
Irix pmake complains if it sees a macro which has never been
defined. The main body of the Makefiles can redefine these
macros to whatever they need.

A file called `libhdf5.settings' is installed along with the
libraries and it contains a list of various things that might
be of interest to someone using the library (such as what
compiler/options were used and what other libraries might need
to be linked to satisfy external references). We can add more
things as it becomes necessary. Here's a sample...
SUMMARY OF THE HDF5 CONFIGURATION
=================================
HDF5 Version: hdf5-1.1.106
Configured on: Tue Jun 8 11:38:52 EDT 1999
Configured by: matzke@llnl.gov at Spizella Software
Configure mode: development
Host system: i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1
Byte sex: little-endian
Libraries: static, shared
Parallel support: mpicc
Installation point: /usr/local
Compiler: mpicc (egcs-2.91.66)
Compiler switches: -Wall -g
Extra libraries: -lmfhdf -ldf -lz -ljpeg -lm
Archiver: ar
Ranlib: ranlib
Debugged Packages: d,e,f,g,hg,i,mm,o,p,s,v,z
API Tracing: yes
File addresses: large
known so far do not need a "launching command" to run shell script.
(If a future system needs it, maybe we should use a new VARIABLE
called RUNSHELL, default to /bin/sh, to do the launching.)
Then inside the test shell script, it needs to know how to launch
serial or parallel executions. So, pass the RUNSERIAL and RUNPARALLEL
variables to the /bin/sh command.
----------------------
./tools/h5ls.c
Added a `--address' (`-a') switch which causes h5ls to display
file addresses for raw data. For contiguous datasets it's just
a nice simple number, but for chunked datasets it's a list of
logical dataset coordinates, file addresses, filter masks, and
storage sizes.
Changed `--dump' switch to `--data'.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
Enhanced the indexed-storage B-tree iterator so it can dump
raw data addresses (and other info) to the standard error
stream.
Added H5Ddebug() so h5ls has a way to dump addresses for
datasets. I'm not sure what else this API function should do,
so I think we should discuss it before we document it. So far,
h5ls is the only thing that uses it, and we can easily change
that.
./src/H5Tconv.c
./test/dtypes.c
Finally had a chance to verify Paul's H5T_conv_s_s (general
string to string conversions) bug fixes and incorporate them
into H5T_conv_f_f (general floating-point to floating-point
conversions) and H5T_conv_i_i (general integer to integer
conversons). Thanks Paul.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5S.c
./src/H5Sprivate.h
Added performance timers around data space read and write
callbacks. They were already there for the gather/scatter
callbacks.
The timings for read/write callbacks are displayed along with
gather/scatter when data space debugging is turned on.
./bin/iostats
Updated to print totals. Added a `--fast' option that doesn't
do any output except the totals and is much faster.
./bin/trace
Changed __unused__ to UNUSED to match source code.
./config/gnu-flags
Updated error message for pgcc. I've sent bug reports to the
pgcc people but the new version still has the same bug.
./configure.in
./config/conclude.in
./config/depend.in
Fixed dependencies for non-GNU makes when run in a directory
other than the hdf5 source tree.
Updated GNU `make dep' rules to copy the distributed
dependencies for non-GNU makes into the source tree when run
in some other directory.
----------------------
./tools/h5tools.c
./tools/h5tools.h
Finally fixed a long-standing bug that caused core dumps if
a compound datum rendered to more than some number of
characters (we kept bumping up the limit at the risk of
violating stack size limits on some machines). The fix works
only on systems that have the vsnprintf() function (otherwise
a 4kB limit is imposed, which if violated probably dumps
core). If vsnprintf() is present then the library dynamically
allocates space for the output string.
Also made it possible to control how compound data is rendered
across multiple lines of output by allowing the caller to
specify where optional line-breaks get inserted. The output
functions split up the value at one or more optional
line-breaks to prevent it from wrapping around the screen.
If a datum doesn't fit on the current line but would fit on
the next line then it is printed on the next line regardless
of whether optional line-breaks would have prevent wrapping
around the screen. This makes it easier to find the beginnings
of compound data values. This feature is disabled by default
but can be enabled by the application.
If a datum doesn't fit on the current line and the previous
datum also occupied more than one line then we move to the
next line before printing. This makes it easier to find the
beginnings of compound data values but prevents the output
from looking fragmented if there are only a few long values
among mostly short values. This feature is disabled by
default but can be enabled by the application.
The application can control the printf() formats used for all
the native data types. The defaults are what the library used
to use: %g, %ld, %lu, %d, and %u
./tools/h5ls.c
Compound datatype values can now be split across multiple
lines of output instead of just wrapping. Also, when lots of
compound values are too long they all start at the beginning
of a line. This only required about 10 lines of changes in the
setup for tools library calls (I didn't modify the h5dump
program because it uses its own version of the tools library
that forked off long ago).
Added code for Win32 which is unable to cast `unsigned long
long' to `double'. If the dataset size exceeds (2^63)-1 then
the percent utilization is not displayed (this is easily
possible with chunked datasets). This is untested yet.
./configure.in
./src/H5config.h.in
./src/H5.c
./src/H5private.h
Check for vsnprintf() and provide a simple, stupid definition
if it isn't available. The stupid definition just calls
vsprintf() and ignores the second argument. This can result in
buffer overflows in h5ls and h5dump since vsprintf() is an
unsafe function (and anyone can create an hdf5 file that runs
an arbitrary command from h5ls and h5dump in that case)!

H5I_clear_group() to skip items that couldn't be freed. This
allows the item to remain in the group until we can free it
later.

version is updated then everything gets recompiled.

./src/H5R.c
Failure return value for object type functions is now
H5G_UNKNOWN as documented.
./src/H5Shyper.c
./src/H5Spoint.c
Fixed an unused argument warning.
./tools/h5debug.c
Fixed a call to H5F_block_read() since the 4th argument is
different now.
./tools/h5ls.c
Added a space between the object name and class to make the
output readable when the object name is longer than 24
characters.
C
----------------------
./config/depend.in
Fixed automatic dependencies. We were storing dependencies for
*.o files instead of *.lo files after shared libraries were
added.
./config/gnu-flags
./config/linux-gnulibc1

./test/istore.c
Added an H5Dget_storage_size() function that reports the
amount of storage allocated for raw data in a dataset.
Changed H5D_xfer_* to H5F_xfer_* because these properties are
more general than datasets. This also allows some of the
lower-level I/O functions to get this information easier.
./src/H5S.c
./src/H5Sall.c
Added two new functions H5S_all_read() and H5S_all_write()
which are optimizations that copy data directly between file
and memory without having to go through the scatter gather
step. This knocks quite a bit of time off the I/O and
reading/writing entire datasets is a fairly common operation.
./tools/h5ls.c
Reports the logical size of data, the allocated size of data,
and the percent utilization.
./MANIFEST
Removed old pablo files, added new files. Snapshots should now
start to work again.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Fmpio.c
Removed two warnings signed vs. unsigned comparisons and check
for overflow.

applied.
./src/H5T.c
Relaxed the H5Tpack() a little so it would pack compound data
structures that had non-transient atomic members.
./tools/h5ls.c
Added a `-g' (or `--group') flag that causes information to be
printed about the specified group instead of the group's
contents. (sort of like Unix's `ls -d'). The `-g' can be used
in combination with `-r' to print information about the group
and its contents.

./src/H5D.c
./src/H5O.c
Removed H5AC, H5B, and H5T from the default list of packages
to debug (because they're pretty expensive debugging), and
added H5O. Also fixed a bug for undefined variable in H5D when
H5S debugging is turned on but H5T debugging is turned off.
./config/conclude.in
Fixed installation of header files for building in a directory
other than the source directory. This fixes a bug where
H5config.h wasn't being installed.

Changed the way the library shuts down again. Now it handles
cycles between packages and isn't so sensitive to dependencies
between packages. A package might shut down only to be
restarted to process a request from some other package being
shut down. Loops are detected after 100 iteractions and the
shutdown is aborted with a message on standard error. This
also makes it a lot easier to debug.
./src/H5A.c
Fixed H5A_write() and H5A_read() so they pass a non-null
background buffer to the conversion functions. This is
necessary when an attribute has a compound data type.
./src/H5Flow.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
./src/H5Fsec2.c
Reindented new Win32 stuff.
./src/H5Odtype.c
Fixed a bug when enumeration types are used in a compound data
type. The byte pointer wasn't incremented after the type
information was written.
./tools/h5ls.c
Compound data types display their total size because it's not
always obvious from looking at the members.
Scalar attributes show their space as `scalar' instead of
`{}'.
The index value is not printed for attributes that have only a
few values. Instead the word `Data:' is printed on the first
line of attribute data.
Named types display their data type only if verbose output was
requested.

Changes that allow hdf5 to be configured and compiled in a

useful if you want to concurrently compile with different
compilers and/or compile flags, or if the hdf5 source is on
read-only media like a CDROM. The changes were surprisingly
easy ;-) Here's what you can do now...
$ mkdir /tmp/build1 # or something
$ cd /tmp/build1
$ /cdrom/hdf5/configure # where ever the source is
$ make
Paul, you'll have to change the testh5toh4 script similar to
the way I changed testh5dump.sh. I started working on it but
then gave up because of a number of problems: (1) I had to
comment out all the tests that let h5toh4 choose the output
file name because it always tried to put the output file in
the same directory as the input file, (2) if path names are
used during the h4 dump then they interfere with the
diff. The test works fine when run in the source directory,
but try this instead:
$ gunzip <hdf5-1.1.67.tar.gz |tar xf -
$ chmod -R ugo-w hdf5-1.1.67
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ ../hdf5-1.1.67/configure
$ make check
Dan, I didn't modify the pablo/Makefile.in because I have no
way to test it. I think all you need to do is add a couple
lines before the @COMMENCE@ line and add a couple search
directories for header files. Anyway, it seems like almost an
exact duplicate of the src/Makefile.in, so it shouldn't be a
problem...
./Makefile.in
Removes a few more temporary files during make clean and
distclean.

I fixed the creation of the time-stamp files so that the

./src/H5private.h
Temporarily commented out the code that tries to link a simple
MPI-IO application because I'm not sure how to pass $LDFLAGS
and $LIBS to the compiler.
Removed the `--enable-parallel=ibm' switch because the library
we link with is either -lmpcc or -lmpcc_r but not both. The
only way to tell is to see what compiler was specified (mpcc
or mpcc_r) but if that compiler is specified then we don't
need any libraries (the compiler script supplies them). That
leaves just two choices: the user must use a compiler script:
CC=mpcc ./configure
or the user must state which library is desired:
LDFLAGS='-lmpcc' ./configure --enable-parallel
Checks for <setjmp.h>, longjmp(), and signal(). We don't check
for setjmp() because it could be a macro (in fact, Posix
requires it to be a macro) and if longjmp() is present then
setjmp() is probably present too ;-)
./src/H5detect.c
The alignment detection loop uses SIGBUS and setjmp/longjmp
instead of fork/wait in order to get around bugs with forking
in conjunction with mpich. This hasn't been tested on the
SP-2 yet but it does work on the DEC Alpha.
./test/Makefile.in

Changed the names of the IBM-SP2 config files by replacing the
minor version numbers with an `x'. The solaris config warns
about old versions of gcc.
The RUNSERIAL value is set to the empty string by default. The
config/* file (or user) can override it by setting it to some
other value.
The `--enable-parallel' with no flags turns on the
HAVE_PARALLEL constant in the source code but doesn't add any
MPI or MPI-IO libraries to the link line.
If we are compiling for parallel then configure checks that we
can actually link a very simple program. This has the benefit
of detecting config errors before we waste time compiling the
entire library.
Configure recognizes `mpcc_r' as a parallel compiler.
./src/H5A.c
./src/H5Apublic.c
Fixed some compiler warnings. Changed the return type of
H5Aget_name() from hssize_t to ssize_t because the name can
never be larger then memory.
OS cannot handle the 64 bit instruction sets. Let the local system
default takes care of preferred machine code.
Tested on both IRIX and IRIX64 platforms.

Improvements for parallel library. If you have a properly
working mpicc you should be able to just say:
$ CC=mpicc ./configure
and you will see
checking for mpirun... /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun
checking for parallel support files... skipped
checking how to run on one processor...
/usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np 1
checking how to run in parallel...
/usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np $$NPROCS
To quote from the INSTALL file....
*** Parallel vs. serial library
The HDF5 library can be configured to use MPI and MPI-IO for
parallelizm on a distributed multi-processor system. The easy
way to do this is to have a properly installed parallel
compiler (e.g., MPICH's mpicc or IBM's mpcc) and supply that
executable as the value of the CC environment variable:
[NOTE: mpcc is not tested yet]
$ CC=mpcc ./configure
$ CC=/usr/local/mpi/bin/mpicc ./configure
If no such wrapper script is available then you must specify
your normal C compiler along with the distribution of
MPI/MPI-IO which is to be used (values other than `mpich' will
be added at a later date):
$ ./configure --enable-parallel=mpich
If the MPI/MPI-IO include files and/or libraries cannot be
found by the compiler then their directories must be given as
arguments to CPPFLAGS and/or LDFLAGS:
$ CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/mpi/include \
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/mpi/lib/LINUX/ch_p4 \
./configure --enable-parallel=mpich
If a parallel library is being built then configure attempts
to determine how to run a parallel application on one
processor and on many processors. If the compiler is mpicc
and the user hasn't specified values for RUNSERIAL and
RUNPARALLEL then configure chooses `mpirun' from the same
directory as `mpicc':
RUNSERIAL: /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np 1
RUNPARALLEL: /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np $${NPROCS:=2}
The `$${NPROCS:=2}' will be substituted with the value of the
NPROCS environment variable at the time `make check' is run
(or the value 2).
./testpar/Makefile.in
Saying `make check' (or `make test') will run the tests on two
processors by default. If you define NPROCS then that many
processors are used instead:
$ NPROCS=4 make check
./configure.in
Fixed (hopefully) bugs with detecting whether __attribute__
and __FUNCTION__ are special keywords for the compiler.
./Makefile.in
Saying `make install' from the top level directory shows
instructions for using shared libraries.
./config/commence.in
./src/Makefile.in
./test/Makefile.in
./testpar/Makefile.in

Moved the @top_srcdir@ into the makefiles because it was
expanded too early and had the wrong value.
./INSTALL
Added a warning that if the wrong version of hdf4 tools are
installed then `make check' will fail in the tools directory.

Added tests to determine how to compile shared libraries and
how to link programs with them before the libraries are
installed. Also how to install and uninstall shared
libraries. The configure step also prints the names of the
config files it's trying to load for easier debugging.
./bin/config.guess
./bin/config.sub
Replaced with a newer version from GNU. The changes we made
to that file to report `irix6.x' and `FreeBSD' without version
numbers have been incorporated into configure.in instead. In
the future, do not change these two files (see the top of
configure.in instead). By the way, this update was required to
get shared libraries working.

./config/freebsd
Moved config files around to agree with output from the new
config.guess. The linux file was split into gnu (RedHat),
gnulibc1, and gnulibc2 versions. The alpha-dec file was
removed (I think it was unused) and the alpha-dec-osf4.0 was
changed to dec-osf4.x. The irix5.3 file renamed to irix5.x and
the irix64 file was renamed to irix6.x. The freebsd file was
changed to point to linux-gnulibc1. These changes were tested
on:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20
OSF1 4.0
./config/alphaev56-dec-osf4.x
./config/irix64
Added warnings similar to linux/freebsd about using compilers
with known bugs.
./config/commence.in
./config/conclude.in
./src/Makefile.in
./test/Makefile.in
./testpar/Makefile.in
./tools/Makefile.in
Added definitions for shared libraries. This has been tested
on the following systems:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20 static only
OSF1 4.0
If you want to disable use of shared libraries (you probably
do for development purposes since it takes a lot longer to
compile and because you have to run dynamically linked
programs in a special way if the library hasn't been
installed) then add `--disable-shared' to the configure
command line. This is all documented in the INSTALL file.
./bin/release
Temprarily commented out the MANIFEST checking when running
under svf since svf is about to be replaced by a newer
version. This change only affects error checking during the
release process.
./Makefile.dist
./Makefile.in
Added `make check' which does the same thing as `make _test'
since the former is endorsed by the GNU coding style and
people are used to it. The old `make _test' still works too
(and so does `make test' if you use GNU make).
----------------------
./INSTALL
Added instructions for using other compilers on Irix platforms.
./configure.in
./configure [REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
./src/H5private.h
The presence of <sys/sysinfo.h> and <sys/proc.h> is only
checked on DEC/Alpha because there are too many problems
including these headers on other systems.
./config/irix6.x
./config/irix64
Removed `-ansi' and added a comment. Converting an ASCII UTC date
and time to a time_t value is not defined by ANSI or Posix but
is available if we don't use `-ansi'. This allows the dataset
modification time messages to be read properly by
H5Gget_objinfo().
./src/H5Tconv.c
Fixed a compiler warning.
./test/dtypes.c
./test/hyperslab.c
./test/istore.c

----------------------
./INSTALL
Added warnings and a disclaimer about GNU, DEC, Irix64, and NT
compilers that generate incorrect machine code.
./configure.in
./src/H5private.h
Detects and includes <sys/param.h> which is needed on FreeBSD
before <sys/proc.h> even though we only really using anything
from <sys/proc.h> on the DEC Alpha.
./config/irix64
Turned off warnings for duplicate definitions from the linker
because -lnsl on irix has the same stuff in it as -lc.
./config/irix6.x
Split up the CC and CFLAGS settings like with irix64 so that
compilers besides `-n32' can be used.
./bin/snapshot
The snapshots are tagged with names like hdf5-1_1_52 which is
similar to the way the releases are tagged (cvs doesn't allow
dots in tags).
./test/dtypes.c
./src/H5private.h
./src/H5Tconv.c
Fixed some alignment violations on the DEC when using high
optimization levels. The DEC incorrectly optimizes certain
memcpy() and memmove() calls when the source argument is not
word aligned if the call looks like it's copying an atomic
data type.
./test/hyperslab
Worked around code generation bugs in the Irix64 Mongoose 7.00
compiler by casting some `unsigned long' values to `unsigned'
in an expression.
./src/H5Ocomp.c
Fixed a place where %d was used to print a size_t.
----------------------
./config/irix64
The old (-32) compiler is now supported by setting envrionment
