Purpose:
check in beta release h4toh5 converter
Description:
1. add copy right and other comments to all .h and .c files
2. fix bugs on sds unlimited dimension, hdf5 dimensional scale attribute and vdata translating
from h4 to h5.
Solution:
2.
1) for sds with unlimited dimension to be converted into extensible hdf5 dataset,
on hdf5 side, has to set a default chunk size even though the corresponding hdf4 file is not
chunked.
2) in this version, if sds object doesn't have dimensional scale data, we will not show
the default hdf4 dimensional name ("fakedim0", etc.) in the new hdf5 dimensional scale
name attribute.
3) fix a bug transferring vdata of which the field includes a character array. Make it correctly transfer into the corresponding hdf5 compound data type.
Platforms tested:
eirene,arabica,baldric,hawkwind,paz,gondolin on new set of hdf4 test files.
Purpose:
1. fix multiple defination warnings at sgi platform
2. adding chunking information from hdf4 to hdf5 property list.
Description:
1. Orginally global varibles were defined at one header file and this
header file were included by other .c file and .h file so multiple warnings are
generated.
2. Chunking information was not included in the previous version.
Solution:
1. use "extern" to define global variables at h4toh5util.h file and define global variables
at h4toh5main.c
2. retrieve the chunking info from sdgetchunkinfo and GRgetchunkinfo and store these information
into hdf5 property list.
Platforms tested:
eirene,arabica,paz,gondolin
Purpose:
fix "zero memory" routine and change dimensional scale name size to MAX_DIM_NAME
Description:
change bzero into h4toh5_ZeroMemory
change dimensional scale name size(orginally MAX_NC_NAME) to MAX_DIM_NAME at converter.
Solution:
see description
Platforms tested:
arabica,baldric,gondolin(DEC),opus(HP 11),eirene(Linux),paz(IRIX6.5)
Purpose:
add h4toh5 converter source codes under tools directory.
Description:
[describe the bug, or describe the new feature, etc]
Solution:
[details about the changes, algorithm, etc...]
[Please as detail as you can since your own explanation is
better than others guessing it from the code.]
Platforms tested:
[machines you have tested the changed version. This is absolute
important. Test it out on at least two or three different platforms
such as Big-endian-32bit (SUN/IRIX), little-endian-32(LINUX) and
64-bit (IRIX64/UNICOS/DEC-ALPHA) would be good.]
