Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-)
Description:
Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections.
However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier
until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I
brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the
release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in
performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch,
but not the other.
I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label
"before_signed_unsigned_changes".
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel & fphdf5
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/backward compatibility
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/"purify options"
Solaris 2.8 (sol) w/FORTRAN & C++
AIX 5.x (copper) w/parallel & FORTRAN
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/FORTRAN
Linux 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Misc. update:
Improvement.
Description:
Change the default CC, F9X and CXX compilers from ecc/efc/ecc
to icc/ifort/icc because Intel keeps changing their compiler
names. This eliminated the warning messages that a wrong
compiler name is used.
Platforms tested:
Tested in Tg-login NCSA only since that is the only
IA64 platform on site.
Bug fix.
Description:
$CXX_BASENAME was not set yet if $CXX was pre-set to g++. In turn,
CXX_flags are not picking up the g++ values.
Solution:
The correct solution should be done in configure which should have
setup CXX_BASENAME if $CC is set before sourcing this file.
Put a special patch here for g++ for now.
(Also added the recognization of icc as another name for Intel
compilers.)
Platforms tested:
No h5committest but tested in TG-NCSA since these changes affected
the IA64 platform only.
Misc. update:
Fix to config for ia64-linux (C++)
Description:
missing character in config file
Solution:
add the missing character
Platforms tested:
'hal'
Misc. update:
Improvement.
Description:
setup default setting for C++ API. Default to use the ecc compiler.
Platforms tested:
Tested in TG-ncsa which is the IA64 platform. None of the standard committest
platforms would have tested this change.
Misc. update:
bug fix.
Description:
The previous patch of -D__GNUC__ was causing failure in the
newer compiler. The previous failure could not be repeated
any more. So, removed it.
Platforms tested:
Tested only in TG-NCSA since the change affects only the ia64 platform.
Misc. update:
Description: After titan updated ecc compiler, int64_t cannot be found.
Solution: Added -D__GNUC__ to CFLAGS to enable int64_t in /usr/include/stdint.h
Platforms tested: titan(titan specific)
Bug fix
Description:
Fix problems building on Debian Linux when Intel's "ecc" compiler is
not available.
Platforms tested:
Eyeballed - very trivial patch from user.
Bug Fix
Description:
The FFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and CPPFLAGS variables weren't carrying
user-defined values into the Makefiles.
Solution:
Changed the flags from FOO="..." to FOO="$FOO ..."
Platforms tested:
Copper
Verbena
Arabica
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix (by Bill Wendling)
Description: When efc compiler was used, FFLAGS were not set up
to deal with !DEC amd !MS dirctive and to use
-Vaxlib flag for exit call.
Solution: Modify the file to set up the flag.
Platforms tested: titan
Misc. update:
Update
Description:
Revamped the configuration system. The configurations for the Fortran
and C++ libraries are no longer separate from the "main"
configuration system. This involved removing the "configure*" and
"aclocal.m4" files from the fortran/ and c++/ subdirectories. Also
merging settings in the config/ subdirectories into the main config/
subdirectory.
Fortran header files had to be modified a little for Linux. It was
checking if it was a Linux machine by some #defines, however with the
-std=c99 switch, these defines weren't there. I added a check for
some other ones which should be there whether the -std=c99 switch is
used or not.
Platforms tested:
Verbena (Fortran & C++)
Sol (Fortran & C++)
Copper (Fortran & C++)
Modi4 (Parallel, Fortran, & C++)
Misc. update:
Feature (bug fix)
Description:
Added a new configure file specifically for the IA64 platform
in which ecc and efc are the default compilers.
Also added all the Fortran special setup in the fortran version
Platforms tested:
no h5committest since this is a IA64 platform stuff.
Tested in Titan.
Misc. update:
MANIFEST Updated.
