Purpose:
Maintenance for the upcoming hdf4-1.4..0-beta3-pre3 testing and release.
Description:
Renamed INSTALL_Windows.txt to INSTALL_Windows to make name consistent
with other names of INSTALL* files.
Updated MANIFEST to include INSTALL_Windows file.
Updated RELEASE file.
Purpose:
To remove ragged array doc files (1 each in UG and RM)
Solution:
Removed ragged array doc files Ragged.html and RM_H5RA.html
Platforms tested:
IE 5
New Feature
Description:
Added array datatype to library. See documentation at:
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/planning/DP/ArrayType.html
for complete details on the impact to the library.
Solution:
Changes to the base library include removing the ability of compound
datatype fields to be an array (they can use an array type for the field,
to duplicate the functionality) and adding in the new array datatype
everywhere appropriate. (I hope :-)
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.1.1 (hawkwind)
Purpose:
add testfiles for h4toh5 converter
Description:
Solution:
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.]
Purpose:
Maintenance
Description:
I renamed three files in the fortran/src directory
H5Pf_parallel.c --> H5FDmpiof.c
H5Pff_parallel.f90 --> H5FDmpioff.f90
HDF5_parallel.f90 --> HDF5mpio.f90
Solution:
Updated names in the MANIFEST file.
Purpose:
Maintenance
Description:
I created ./fortran/testpar directory and added files to it
but forgot to update MANIFEST file.
Solution:
Fixed MANIFEST.
Platforms tested:
Bug fix
Description:
"Time" datatypes (H5T_UNIX_D*) were not being stored and retrieved in
the datatype object header message correctly.
Solution:
Store endian-ness and precision in the datatype object header message and
added test to continue to track them working correctly.
This fixes bug #512.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.1.1 (hawkwind)
Maintainance
Description:
Updated for the new files I'm adding as well as the tools/talign.c file
missing from last night's tests.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.6 (baldric) & FreeBSD 4.1.1 (hawkwind)
Added site-specific/ subdirectory in config/ directory
Description:
If a machine needs site-specific configure options but those
options don't necessarily apply to all machines of that type,
place them there.
Rearrange code
Description:
The data sieve buffering code for contiguously stored datasets was
wedged in the H5F_arr_read/H5F_arr_write routines.
Solution:
Created a new H5Fcontig.c to hold I/O routines for contiguously stored
datasets (like H5Fistore.c for chunked dataset I/O routines) and moved
data sieving code into those routines.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.6 (i.e. baldric)

configure.in:
Removed the test for -lxnet in the GASS-driver part. There is
no need for it and it does not exist in other machines like IRIX64.
configure:
Deriverd from configure.in.
Fixed a read-uninitialized-memory error that resulted in the

./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).

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.
----------------------
This extensive change is the virtual file layer implementation. I've
ported and tested the sec2, family, and core drivers and only ported
the mpio driver (Albert will test it). So if you need MPIO I would
recommend sticking with the previous version for a while.
You will get a few compile warnings about split and stdio drivers not
being implemented and possibly tracing information not inserted in
some of the drivers. You can safely ignore them but I plan to fix
them.
I'm still working on the split driver because I just realized that it
needs a part of the VFL that isn't written yet.
Documentation is being updated also because there were some minor
changes (mostly just name changes). It should be available on my web
site later this week.

Modified to work with the virtual file layer by calling H5FD_*
functions instead of H5F_low_* functions and by passing file
access and data transfer properties by object ID instead of
pointer.
Changed H5D_transfer_t to H5FD_mpio_xfer_t since the
COLLECTIVE vs. INDEPENDENT transfer mode is specific to the
MPIO file driver.
Moved MPIO-specific stuff into the MPIO driver.
./src/H5B.c
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
The H5F_mpio_* private functions were renamed and placed in
the H5FDmpio driver except those which appeared in H5Smpio.c.
./src/H5E.c
./src/H5Epublic.h
Added major error number H5E_VFL for virtual file layer
related errors.
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
Changed the logic that controls whether the boot block is
written. Instead of assuming that the first call to write the
boot block is only to allocate space, I've added a function
argument which makes this explicit.
Changed the way files are compared so that a driver-defined
comparison function can be called. Files which belong to
different drivers are always considered different.
Removed H5F_driver_t since file drivers are now identified by
object ID instead of a special non-user-extendible datatype.
Removed all the hard-coded low-level file properties which
have been replaced by the various file drivers.
./src/H5I.c
./src/H5Iprivate.h
Added the H5I_inc_ref() which was removed a few months ago
since we finally have a use for it.
./src/H5Ipublic.h
Added the H5I_VFL object ID type to identify file drivers in
the virtual file layer.
./src/H5MF.c
./src/H5MFprivate.h
Moved all the allocation/deallocation code into the virtual
file layer which allows file drivers to override much of it.
./src/H5P.c
./src/H5Ppublic.h
Moved file driver-specific code into the various file driver
files.
The H5Pcopy() and H5Pclose() functions make calls into the
virtual file driver to manage the memory for driver-specific
file access and data transfer properties.
./src/H5private.h
./src/H5public.h
The `haddr_t' type is now public.
