Code cleanup/bug fix
Description:
Add missing files to manifest
Remove C++ style single-line comment from recent checkin and also re-indent
in a few places.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/thread-safe
Not configured w/h5committest
Bug fix & code cleanup
Description:
Fix another bug in the file mounting code and refactor the unmount
code that it is simpler.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Rewrite code for mounting files to clean up layers of kludges and implement
a much cleaner and more maintainable design.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4
new test hor h5repack, to syncronize tests between unix and windows
it requires a new file added
Description:
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
Misc. update:
bug fix.
Description:
-nt is not a universal option for the test command in all platforms.
The use of it in conclude.am cause some platforms to bark at the
Makefile generated.
Solution:
Created a command script bin/newer which tests if file1 is newer
than file2. Replace the "test file1 -nt file2" by
"newer file1 file2".
Platforms tested:
Tested in sol.
Description:
1.7 daily tests failed in HL library when Fortran was not
enabled; also long long instead of long_long declarations
were used and caused failures on Windows
Solution:
Removed Fortran related functions (except H5IM_find_palette) from
H5IM.c file and put it into fortran/src/H5IMcc.c
Modified appropriate Makefile.am files, regenerated Makefile.in files, updated header files, MANIFEST, etc.
Note: H5IM_find_palette should be also in H5IMcc.c, but
for some unknown to me reason, linking fails if the function is
included in H5IMcc.c. I will really appreciate if some C guru
will look into the code and figure out what is wrong :-) Thanks!
Platforms tested: mir with g95, heping with and without Fortran enabled
Misc. update:
New feature
Description:
Add group creation & access property lists, dataset access property lists
and named datatype creation & access property lists. Currently have
<foo>_extend() API names, which will need to be changed for the final release.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (heping)
Add new html document files for windows users
Add new project file dt_arith.dsp and dt_arithdll.dsp
Remove dt_atomic.dsp and dt_atomicdll.dsp
Description:
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
Description: Renamed test/dt_atomic.c to test/dt_arith.c(an abbreviation
of "arithmetic data types") to better describe the program. This checkin
broke down into three sections when the floating-point numbers are the
source, normalized, denormalized, and special values. If there's any
difference of destination values, only normalized value test reports
failure. The other 2 report only as warning.
Platforms tested: h5commitest and fuss
Misc. update: MANIFEST
Several files added into windows directory
Description:
Added:
Batch files for intel and .net
Documents for windows
Removed:
Short instruction for windows
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
Two new project files added.
Description:
Two new test tools h5repart project files added into windows/tools/testfiles

Bug fix/improvement
Description:
Added another step to fortran type detection. This should help on some
bizarre platforms.
Solution:
Formerly, H5fortran_detect.f90 was included in the distribution. Now
it is generated by H5test_kind.f90 (written by Elena).
Platforms tested:
verbena, modi4, copper
Description:See details from Bug #213. Family member file size wasn't saved
anywhere in file. When family file is opened, the first member size determine
the member size.
Misc. update: Added a family file as the source file for backward
compatibility test.
Description: See details from Bug #213. Family member file size wasn't saved
anywhere in file. When family file is opened, the first member size determine
the member size.
Solution: This is the fourth step of checkin. A test suit is added for h5repart,
including a program to generate the test files, a script file to run h5repart,
and a program to verify repartitioned files can be opened by the library.
There's a change from the first step of checkin. Family name template is no
longer saved in the superblock because different pathname can make the name
different.
In the third step of checkin, h5repart has been modified. If h5repart is used
to change the size of family member file, the new size(actual member size) is saved
in the superblock.
In the second step of checkin, multi driver is checked against the driver
name saved in superblock. Wrong driver will result in a failure with an error message indicating
multi driver should be used. This change includes split driver because it's a special case for multi
driver.
In the first step of checkin. Family member size and name template(unused at this stage) are saved
in file superblock. When file is reopened,the size passed in thrin superblock. A different size
will trigger a failure with an error message indicating the right size. Wrong driver to open family
file will cause a failure, too.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss.
Misc. update: MANIFEST
Added documentation
Description:
Added "Automake Use Cases" document to Tech Notes.
This is intended as a reference or an introductory document; more
in-depth documentation is in progress.
Platforms tested:
Change only to documentation. Documentation is viewable on Windows.
new fortran parallel test
Description:
added a test that writes and reads several datasets
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux (intel compiler, tungsten)
AIX (copper)
Misc. update:
Feature
Description:
Added "support" for UTF-8 character encoding.
Solution:
Wrote tests to check that UTF-8 can be used in a number of places in
HDF5 (object names, data, etc.). These tests live in test/tunicode.c.
Added a new UTF-8 character encoding for datatypes.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, heping
Misc. update:
Three project files and three workspaces added into hdf5/windows/misc
Description:
Add the following files
/windows/misc/H5fortran_detect_gen/H5fortran_detect_gen.dsp
./windows/misc/H5fortran_detect_gen/H5fortran_detect_gen.dsw
./windows/misc/fortrantypegen/H5fortran_detect.dsp
./windows/misc/fortrantypegen/fortrantypegen.dsw
./windows/misc/matchtypegen/H5match_types.dsp
./windows/misc/matchtypegen/matchtypegen.dsw
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
New feature.
Description:
Add "memory pool" internal data structure. This set of routines is
designed to add a way to allocate small pieces of information for a particular
purpose and then free all the pieces at once (i.e. without having to free each
piece individually). Memory pools are also good for localizing lots of small
allocations that logically belong together.
For example, if you were constructing a temporary linked list, you could
create a new memory pool, allocate all the nodes for the list from the memory
pool and when you were done with the list, just destroy the pool instead of
tracking through the list and freeing each block independently.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Cray X1 Port
Description:
Porting 1.7 branch to Cray X1. With these changes, HDF5 builds, but
there are some errors in the tests. Working on the errors.
Solution:
Added nv1-cray file to config directory.
Cleaned up some code in hl/c++ that was causing compiler to complain.
Platforms tested:
Cray X1, mir, sleipnir
Misc. update:
Configuration feature
Description:
Fortran integer types (not reals) are now automatically detected at
build-time.
Solution:
Two helper programs are used, one to detect what types the Fortran compiler
has access to, and one to generate header files for C and Fortran matching
up types.
Platforms tested:
mir, copper, modi4, pommier (last week)
Misc. update:
MANIFEST updated, H5f90fortran_types.f90 removed from configure.in, since
it is not longer generated by configure.
Bug fix/code cleanup
Description:
Add tests to determine that very long (64K+) object names are working.
Fixed a couple of bugs in h5dump where they weren't...
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)
Feature - libtool shared library versioning
Description:
Libtool provides a mechanism for different versions of the same shared
library to be distinguished. Now this is applied to HDF5 when it is
built as a shared library.
Solution:
The version number is stored in config/lt_vers.am, and included in
src/Makefile.am.
This number will be automatically updated by bin/h5vers; developers
only need to update it when they change the API.
*** IMPORTANT ***
Any time the API changes, the version number in config/lt_vers.am must
be updated!
Platforms tested:
mir, eirene, verbena, modi4
Misc. update:
Description: Removed support for SRB driver
Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure
to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files.
Platforms tested: heping and shanti
Misc. update: ran bin/chkmanifest on heping
