Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
"make distclean" is failing currently in the doc/html/ed_libs and
doc/html/ed_styles directories for lack of a 'Dependencies' file.
Solution:
Add it.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir)
Misc. update:
Purpose:
DreamWeaver (DW) adaptation of the HDF5 doc set, introducing the use of
stylesheets and DW libraries.
Stylesheets -- for consistent format management.
DW libraries -- for managing common elements across documents.
Platforms tested:
IE 5 and 6
Netscape
Purpose:
Adding stylesheets to the HDF5 doc set (via DW libraries).
Description:
These HTML stylesheets are for consistently managing formatting issues.
The *Elect* stylesheets will be used in the distributed HTML doc set,
i.e., the electronic version; the *Print* stylesheets will be used to
generate printer-friendly versions.
Platforms tested:
IE 5 and 6
Netscape
Purpose:
Adapting the document set for use with DreamWeaver.
Description:
These are the DreamWeaver library files, which will be used to manage
common elements across documents: elements that are identical in many
places across the doc set and when they change, they change everywhere.
Testing:
IE 5 and 6
Netscape
Purpose:
Maintenance
Description:
* Added support for generic properties.
* Added support for time allocation properties.
* Added support for variable length datatypes (only datatypes based
on INTEGER, REAL and CHARACTER Fortran types are supported).
* added some missing functions
Solution:
I am checking in new Fortran APIs and their man pages to support
1.5 features listed above.
Not all APIs have tests yet. APIs were written in Fall 2002, and I am afraid
that I will loose the code or totally forget what I did if I wait longer. ;-)
Platforms tested:
arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran), modi4 (parallel, fortran)
Purpose:
To bring the H5Z_func_t definition from the old User's Guide
into the Reference Manual.
Description:
Added custom filter function H5Z_func_t definition to the
H5Zregister function description.
This definition will next be edited to bring it up-to-date.
Platforms tested:
IE 5
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
man pages for the following F90 functions were missing:
h5tget_super_f h5tarray_create_f h5tget_array_ndims_f
h5tget_array_dims_f
Solution:
Added missing man pages
Platforms tested:
IE
Purpose:
Adding new H5Fget_obj_* functions. (Development branch only)
Description:
Added H5Fget_obj_count.
Stubbed in H5Fget_obj_ids, but the entry is not filled in.
Reordered entries to group similar functions.
Platforms tested:
IE 5
Purpose:
Added missing fortran functions h5set(get)_buffer_f.
Also added docs and tests for them.
Solution:
Currently functions do not accept conversion and background buffers.
This corresponds to H5set(get)_buffer call with buffer pointers
set to NULL. If there is a demand, I can overload the functions
to have new parameters and go through all trouble creating functions
for all supported datatypes.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7, Linux 2.2., IRIX64-6.5
Purpose:
Added new F90 APIs
Description:
I added new F90 APIs, tests, and documentation for the following
functions:
h5fget_obj_count_f h5pequal_f h5tget_member_index_f
h5fget_obj_ids_f h5pget_fclose_degree_f
h5pset_fclose_degree_f
Documentation for exisiting functions was missing:
h5freopen_f, h5fflush_f, h5fmount_f, h5unmount_f, h5fget_create_plist_f,
h5fget_access_plist_f.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7, Linux 2.2 and IRIX64-6.5

Purpose:
Added missing fortran functions.
Description:
Four Library Fortran API functions have been added:
h5get_libversion_f, h5_check_version_f, h5garbage_collect_f and
h5dont_atexit_f. Only first two functions were tested.
Documentation file and RELEASE.txt were updated.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7, IRIX64-6.5 and Linux 2.2
Purpose:
Add copyright and change "HDF5 Tutorial" link.
Description:
Added copyright statement and link.
Changed the "Tutorial" link to point to the copy on the HDF5 website.
Since the Tutorial is not maintained in CVS, the distributed
version of the Tutorial is being unlinked and removed from the
set of distributed files. It is hoped that we can begin
maintaining the Tutorial under CVS prior to Release 1.6 and
resume its distribution.
Platforms tested:
IE 5
Purpose:

H5Tget_member_name: Revised, based on lessons learned with
H5Tget_member_index.
H5Tget_nmembers: Revised to indicate that function works for both
compound and enumeration datatypes.
--> Fixes Bug# 747.
Cross-listed H5Tget_nmembers, H5Tget_member_index, and
H5Tget_member_name under both compound and enum datatypes,
as they work for both.
H5Tset_tag: Corrected tag description (it is descriptive, uniqueness
is not required).
Corrected several spelling errors.
--> Partially fixes Bug# 760 (though just for this file *sigh*).
Platforms tested:
IE 5
Bug Fix
Description:
``make uninstall-doc'' wasn't working properly. Some files would be
left behind in the installed source tree. The fix I put in was too
heavy-handed as it wiped out the entire doc tree that was installed
and would remove any other files which were installed there.
Solution:
Executed the ``make uninstall-examples'' command if uninstalling the
docs. Fixed how the java Tutorial examples were being removed (they
weren't). Essentially used the PUB_SUBDOCS macro to help remove them.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The doc tree wasn't being cleaned up all the way. Directories would
be left in there and some examples/Tutorial files weren't cleaned up
correctly.

to allow v1.4.x users to continue to use their source code without
modification.
