Update
Description:
Updated the Copyright statement
Platforms tested:
Linux (This change is only in the comments, so I just check that the
modules still compile)
Misc. update:
Purpose:
New function.
Description:
H5Dget_offset returns the offset of a dataset's data relative to the
beginning of a file.
Platforms tested:
arabica(simple function, one test should be enough.)
Misc. update:
RELEASE.txt
Code cleanup
Description:
Windows is generating hundreds of warnings from some of the practices in
the library. Mostly, they are because size_t is 32-bit and hsize_t is
64-bit on Windows and we were carelessly casting the larger values down to
the smaller ones without checking for overflow.
Also, some other small code cleanups,etc.
Solution:
Re-worked some algorithms to eliminate the casts and also added more
overflow checking for assignments and function parameters which needed
casts.
Kent did most of the work, I just went over his changes and fit them into
the the library code a bit better.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
Update
Description:
Changed includes of the form:
#include <hdf5_file.h>
to
#include "hdf5_file.h"
so that gcc can pick them up easier without including the system
header files since we don't care about them.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Clean up warnings
Description:
The "FAILED" macro is defined by Windows and is causing warnings and
potential errors when compiled on that platform.
Solution:
Change our macro from FAILED to H5_FAILED.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.2 (hawkwind)
Code cleanup.
Description:
Fixed _lots_ (I mean _tons_) of warnings spit out by the gcc with the
extra warnings. Including a few show-stoppers for compression on IRIX
machines.
Solution:
Changed lots of variables' types to more sensible and consistent types,
more range-checking, more variable typecasts, etc.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.2 (hawkwind), IRIX64-64 (modi4)
The "FILENAME" declared extern in h5test.h is not always used.
It was used in h5_cleanup to remove temporary files created
during tests. Not all tests codes have used this routine.
Indeed, quite a few of test programs do "#define FILENAME ".
Also, h5_cleanup needs to work in tandem with h5_fixname.
h5_fixname accepts an explicite base_name argument instead
of using the global variable FILENAME. That is cleaner.
Solution:
Added char *base_name[] as a new argument to h5_cleanup, in
the same style as h5_fixname. Removed "extern char *FILENAME..."
from use. Also, undo some unnecessary declaration of "char *FILENAME"
from some tests which don't use it at all (yet).
Platforms tested:
modi4-64(irix64), arabica(solari2.7), eirene(linux)
(arabica could not launch tests automatically. I had to hack
in LD_LIBRARY_PATH to make them run.)

./MANIFEST
./src/H5FDmulti.c [NEW]
./src/H5FDmulti.h [NEW]
./src/Makefile.in
./src/hdf5.h
The split driver was reimplemented as a more general "multi"
driver which is capable of splitting data into multiple files
like the family driver except the partioning is done by memory
usage type instead of address. The H5Pset_fapl_split()
function just calls H5Pset_fapl_multi() with arguments which
prepare to split the address space into two files: meta and
raw data.
This is the first version. I plan to allow the open() call to
relax a bit which would allow one to open an hdf5 file when
only the meta-data file is present. This would allow a very
large file to be split and stored on tape and the relatively
small meta file to be mirrored on disk to allow limited
browsing of the file (any request for raw data would fail).

./src/H5FDsec2.c
Added the ability for a file driver to store information in
the superblock which would be needed if the file were opened
again later for reading. The format is driver-defined which
allows users to extend it however they like.
./doc/html/H5.format.html
Added information about the new driver information block of
the superblock. This is where file drivers store information
they need in order to reopen the file later.

The file access properties and the file access property list
were decoupled, which allows the property list to more cleanly
contain properties for various levels of the file and which
allows the property list to be modified more cleanly when
opening files.
./src/H5.c
./src/H5FDpublic.h
Removed H5FD_MEM_META and H5FD_MEM_GROUP since they're never
used.
./src/H5D.c
Changed the way we detect the MPIO driver in all these special
cases.
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Rpublic.h
./test/tfile.c
The default file sizeof(offset) was changed to be a function
of haddr_t instead of hsize_t.
THE H5RPUBLIC.H DEFINITIONS WILL HAVE PROBLEMS IF THE USER
CREATES A FILE WITH NON-DEFAULT OFFSET AND SIZE SIZES!
./src/H5F.c
Fixed an uninitialized memory access bug in file closing
related to the VFL.
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tpublic.h
Added an H5T_NATIVE_HADDR predefined datatype which
corresponds to the `haddr_t' type.
./test/Makefile.in
Reformatted long lines.
./test/big.c
./test/cmpd_dset.c
./test/dsets.c
./test/dtypes.c
./test/extend.c
./test/external.c
Removed the H5F_ACC_DEBUG flag from file creation/open calls.
./test/big.c
Plugged a memory leak.
./test/h5test.c
Added support for the `multi' driver.
Removed #warning about not having the stdio driver. Plans are
to not implement it since the sec2 driver serves the same
purpose and testing didn't show any difference in execution
times between the two.
external.c:
Test assumed sizeof(int) is 4. Changed the hard-coded values
to values depending on the native sizeof(int).
th5s.c:
Changed hardcoded old filenames to macro FILE.
----------------------
./src/H5T.c
Fixed a typo in the registration of the `unsigned char' to
`unsigned long long' type conversion that caused it to not be
registered, falling back to software whenever that conversion
path was taken.

./test/tstab.c [REMOVED]
./test/stab.c [NEW]
Removed the `t' from the front of these names and made each
test a stand-alone program following the format of most of the
other tests.
./test/big.c
Uses libh5test.a but always sets the low-level driver to 1GB
file family.
The `#if' near the top to set the data space to 8GB has been
simplified now that `long_long' is always defined and the
error message is improved when `long_long' isn't wide enough.
Cleanup code was added to the error handling.
./test/gheap.c
./test/istore.c
Uses libh5test.a. Added error cleanup code.
./test/dtypes.c
./test/h5test.c
Added 68 new tests that check hardware and software
conversions between `long long' and `unsigned long long' and
the other integer types. The tests only run on machines where
sizeof(long_long)!=sizeof(long). We test a total of 180
different integer conversions, half in hardware and half in
software.
Cut down the number of times each test is run from 5 to 1 so
it doesn't take so long. If you want to run more times
there's a constant that can be changed at the top of the file.
./test/extend.c
Removed unused variable.
./test/h5test.c
./test/h5test.h
./test/external.c
./test/fillval.c
The h5_cleanup() returns true/false so it can be used in an `if'
statement to clean up additional files.
./doc/html/Environment.html
Indented. Added HDF5_PREFIX and HDF5_DRIVER descriptions.
./src/H5P.c
Changed the trace type for the second argument from `Iu' to
`x' since it's an output parameter.
./INSTALL
Added a warning that the GNU zlib that comes with the latest
version of HDF4 is too old to use with HDF5 and must be
renamed so configure doesn't see it when `--enable-hdf4' is
used.
----------------------
./MANIFEST
./test/Makefile.in

./test/flush1.c
./test/flush2.c
./test/links.c
./test/mount.c
./test/mtime.c
./test/unlink.c
The tests that check the HDF5 API use the h5test support
functions. For one thing, that means that you can specify the
file driver that thay use by the HDF5_DRIVER environment
variable. Possible values are:
HDF5_DRIVER='sec2' Use read() and write()
HDF5_DRIVER='stdio' Use fread() and fwrite()
HDF5_DRIVER='core' Use malloc() and free()
HDF5_DRIVER='split' Split meta and raw data
HDF5_DRIVER='family N' Use file families with each
member being N megabytes (N
can be fractional, defaults to
one).
Some tests might fail for certain drivers: for instance, the
mount and link tests fail for the `core' driver because
they must be able to close and then reopen a file.

Most of these changes are because the `interface_initialize_g'
variable change from hbool_t to int. It's a one line change.
Changed the way the library is closed so we have more control
over the order the interfaces are shut down. Instead of
registering an atexit() function for every interface in some
haphazard order we just register one: H5_term_library() which
then calls the H5*_term_interface() functions in a
well-defined order.
If the library is closed and then reopened repeatedly by
calling H5close() and H5open() in a loop we only add one copy
of the library termination functions with atexit().
Termination is a two-step process in order to help detect
programming errors that would cause an infinite loop caused by
the termination of one interface waking up some other
previously terminated interface. The first step terminates
the interface and *marks it as unusable*. After all
interfaces are terminated then we mark them all as usable
again. The FUNC_ENTER() macro has been modified to return
failure or to dump core (depending on whether NDEBUG is
defined) if we try to call an interface while it's shutting
down.
./src/H5.c
The H5dont_atexit() function returns failure if it's called
more than once or if it's called too late. However, the error
stack is not automatically printed on failure because the
library might not be initialized yet
./test/chunk.c
./test/flush1.c
./test/flush2.c
./test/iopipe.c
./test/overhead.c
./test/ragged.c
Changed the extra cast for Win32 so we do floating point
division again -- it was just confusion about precedence and
associativity of casting and the C coercion rules. Removed
extra carriage returns inserted by broken operating system.
./src/H5Ffamily.c
Fixed an bug where H5F_fam_write() lowered the EOF marker for
one of the family members causing H5F_fam_read() to read
zeros.
./test/h5test.h [NEW]

./test/external.c
Support library for test files. This isn't done yet but
Katie's contractions are ~10 minutes apart so I figured I
better back this stuff up just in case I'm not here next
week...
Eventually all test files will understand HDF5_DRIVER to name
the low level file driver and parameters so we can easily test
various drivers. They will also understand HDF5_PREFIX to
prepend to the beginning of file names which is necessary for
testing ROMIO with various drivers. Also, the cleanup function
will know how to use the file name prefix and will understand
different file driver naming schemes like file families. I'm
not sure they'll understand the `gsf:' type prefixes yet.
Note, the external test is completely commented out because
I'm in the middle of modifying it. It will still compile and
run but it doesn't test anything at the moment.

./test/big.c

Added more configuration stuff for the Win32 environment. Removed all
the #ifdef WIN32 from the source and replaced them with OS-independent
stuff. Specifics follow:
Check for non-Posix.1 `st_blocks' field in `struct stat' which is used
by the big file test to decide if the file system supports holes. If
the st_blocks field isn't present then we just skip the test.
Configure checks for <io.h> <sys/resource.h> <sys/time.h> and
<winsock.h> and defines HAVE_IO_H, HAVE_SYS_RESOURCE_H,
HAVE_SYS_TIME_H and HAVE_WINSOCK_H when they're found.
Configure checks whether both <sys/time.h> and <time.h> can be
included and defines SYS_TIME_WITH_TIME if so. Otherwise include only
<sys/time.h> or <time.h> even if both exist.
Configure checks sizeof(__int64) and defines SIZEOF___INT64 to the
result or to zero if __int64 isn't defined. The source uses `long
long' in preference to `__int64'.
Removed null WIN32 definition for `inline' since such a definition
already exists in H5config.h
Protected gettimeofday() calls in debugging code with
HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY instead of WIN32.

anyway).

./test/unlink.c
Protected system #include's with #ifdef's from H5config.h.
Undefined NDEBUG since some of the tests rely on assert() to check
return values.
Removed WIN32 definitions for __unused__ since this can be controlled
by the definition of HAVE_ATTRIBUTE in H5config.h
./test/testhdf5.h
Removed the CLEAN_CMD definition because we no longer use it.
Albert's cleanup() functions replaced it.
./test/fillval.c
Initialized auto hid_t variables to fix warnings in error recovery
code when data flow analysis is turned on in compilers.
./test/h5tools.c
Initialized an auto variable to fix a compiler warning.
./test/chunk.c
./test/ragged.c
The WIN32 had some unsigned variables changed to signed because the
compiler generates warnings when coercing unsigned to double(?). I
changed them back to unsigned because they really are unsigned
quantities. If this the change was just to shut up extraneous warnings
then perhaps a compiler flag can do the same; otherwise if the
compiler generates bad code then we should supply a patch file instead
messing up source code with bug work-arounds.
./src/H5detect.c
Protected system #include's with #ifdef's from H5config.h thereby
removing a WIN32.
If getpwuid() doesn't exist (HAVE_GETPWUID) then we assume that
`struct passwd' doesn't exist either (we don't really need it in that
case).
The H5T_NATIVE_LLONG and H5T_NATIVE_ULLONG are defined in terms of
`long long' or else `__int64' or else `long' depending on what's
available.
./src/H5Flow.c
./src/H5Ofill.c
Added __unused__ to some function arguments that aren't used when
assertions are turned off.
./src/H5V.c
Changed an auto variable name in some hand-inlined code to get rid of
a warning about the variable shadowing a previous auto.

----------------------
./src/H5A.c
Named data types can have attributes.
Fixed bugs where the API functions didn't check the return
values of their internal counterparts and thus the automatic
error reporting didn't work.
Fixed some places where the error stack wasn't cleared after a
function returned failure.
Data types returned by H5Aget_type() are always read-only.
If the `attr_num' argument of H5Aiterate() is null then it
acts like H5Giterate() instead of failing -- it begins
processing attributes with the first one.
./src/H5D.c

H5O_modify() will fail if the message is >=16kB.

Miscellaneous little things to clean up. Mostly just removed
H5Z_MAXVAL and added H5Z_USERDEF_MIN and H5Z_USERDEF_MAX.
./MANIFEST
./test/Makefile.in
./test/chunk.c [NEW]
Added a performance test for chunk caching. It looks at the
amount of I/O instead of timing because timing is partly
dependent on the chunk size and I wanted a measurement that
was a function of only the cache size. Run `chunk' with no
arguments and then say `gnuplot x-gnuplot' to see the plots
(press return between plots). Postscript files are created for
each plot.
./test/big.c

Anything having to do with the size of a dataset now uses the
types `hsize_t' and `hssize_t' which must be the same size and
at least as large as `size_t'. This isn't fully tested yet,
so hsize_t and hssize_t are defined as size_t and ssize_t in
H5public.h. Setting them to larger values will trip up gcc
versions less than 2.8.1 on x86 platforms.
Documented unused function formals with `__unused__' before
the formal name. This also has the effect of supressing
warning messages for gcc since it's defined to be
`__attribute__((unused))' in the H5private.h file.
./src/debug.c
./src/h5ls.c
If the file name contains a `%' then the file is opened as a
file family with H5P_DEFAULT for the file member access
property list.
./src/h5ls.c
The group name is optional, defaulting to `/'.
./src/hdf5.h
Added some missing public header files.
----------------------
./configure.in
Moved setting of compiler warning switches earlier in the file.
Turned on more warning switches to gcc.
./config/linux

that version has problems with register allocation for `long
long'.
./html/Datatypes.html
Documented sharing of data types between datasets.

Fixed comparisons between signed and unsigned values. Fixed
warnings about unused function arguments.
----------------------
./src/H5D.c
./test/external.c
A contiguous dataset can now be stored in external files in
such a way that the slowest varying dimension can be increased
after the dataset is created and even written. The user must
have reserved enough space in the external file and the data
space must allow an increase the the slowest varying dimension.
See test_3() of ./test/external.c
./src/H5Oefl.c
./configure.in
./src/H5Fprivate.h
Fixed an overflow bug with unlimited external storage.
./src/H5V.c
Fixed a cast warning.
./test/dsets.c
Make better use of automatic error reporting.
----------------------
./MANIFEST
New files
./html/extern1.gif [NEW]
./html/extern1.obj [NEW]
./html/extern2.gif [NEW]
./html/extern2.obj [NEW]
./html/Datasets.html
Documented external raw data storage.
./html/Datasets.html
./html/chunk1.gif [NEW]
./html/chunk1.obj [NEW]
Added a picture and better description for chunking since it
seems that people are thinking chunks are fixed-size at the
file level instead of at the array level.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Dpublic.h
./test/external.c
Changed H5Dget_create_parms() to H5Dget_create_plist().

External raw data file I/O for contiguous storage is now
working. The library supports segments of various sizes which
can be scattered throughout multiple files in any order.
./test/Makefile.in
Remove more temporary files.

./src/H5private.h

./test/dsets.c
./test/dtypes.c
Removed all the types like `int32' and `intn' into private
headers since they violate the naming scheme and pollute
application name space. Besides, our test files only use them
in a handful of places and it's probably useless to export
them to the app. The app is always written in terms of
standard numeric types or its own numeric types and probably
never in terms of HDF5 numeric types. If it were, then the
user would have to copy from their type to hdf5 type for
almost every hdf5 API function call! Same goes for return
values. I also removed SUCCEED/FAIL from the API since apps
should be checking against zero anyway.
if (FAIL==(space=H5Screate_simple(...))) /*wrong*/
if ((space=H5Fcreate_simple(...)<0)) /*right*/
./src/H5.c
Changed arguments of H5version() from `uintn' to `unsigned'.
./src/H5Tpublic.h
./src/H5T.c
Changed return type of H5Tget_nmembers() from `intn' to `int'
./src/H5A.c
./src/H5Aprivate.h
./src/H5Apublic.h
Changed `H5Asearch_func_t' to `H5A_search_func_t' and moved
its definition from the public to the private header file.
./html/H5.format.html
Documented changes made to the external file list (H5O_EFL)
message.
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Dprivate.h
./src/H5E.c

./src/H5O.c
./src/H5Oefl.c

./src/H5P.c
./src/H5Ppublic.h
Added partial support for external raw data files. HDF5 can
now describe external raw data files by listing the file
names, offsets, and size for a dataset. However, we will
restrict a dataset to be stored "contiguously" when the
external file list is viewed as a single address space. The
current implementation is unable to read/write to external
files--that will come later this week as will documentation.
For now, take a look at ./test/external.c, particularly the
calls to H5Pset_external().
./test/Makefile.in
./test/external.c [NEW]
./MANIFEST
Added tests for external storage. Note: the read test is
supposed to fail at this point since reading external datasets
is not implemented yet. There is no write test.
./src/H5S.c
./src/H5Sprivate.h
./src/H5Ssimp.c
Added H5S_get_npoints_max() to return the maximum possible
number of data points in a data space.
Added an extra argument to H5S_get_dims() which returns the
maximum dims.
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
./src/H5Fpublic.h
./src/H5M.c [DEPRICATED]
./src/H5Mpublic.h [DEPRICATED]
Changed `template' to `property list' in lots of places.
./src/H5Osdspace.c
Removed an extra `\n' from a print statement.
./src/H5S_public.h
Changed H5S_UNLIMITED to the maximum size_t value.
./test/extend.c
"Extendable" is spelled "extendible".
./src/H5Farray.c
./src/H5V.c
./src/H5Vprivate.h
./test/hyperslab.c
Strides are now type ssize_t instead of int. These have
nothing to do with the sample granularity arguments for
hyperslabs, which are also called "strides" in the code.
./test/tstab.c
Changed assumptions about default address and length sizes.
