Description: Changing h5perf installation so only h5perf is installed when
parallel is enabled, while only h5perf_serial is installed when
parallel is disabled.
Tested: kagiso
Description: Removing make target "check-perform". The extra target is unneeded
because the perform tests don't take as long to run as initially
anticipated, and can be lumped in with 'make check'.
Tested: kagiso
Description: Tests in perform directory were never getting run, and
h5perf* programs were not being installed.
Solution: Added another build option, 'make check-perform', which runs the
tests in the perform directory. Also modified the Makefiles in the
perform directory to install (with 'make install') h5perf when
parallel is enabled, and h5perf and h5perf_serial when parallel
is disabled.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew
Configuration feature
Description:
'make install' now tests both static and shared libraries if both are installed.
Solution:
Previously, shared libraries were only tested when static libraries were not installed.
Also cleaned up line in commence.am that was including HL library in all Makefiles.
Platforms tested:
mir (Makefile change only)
new feature
Description:
1) separated the HL library into "public" and "private" header files, with the same caracteristics as the basic library
2) added the public headers to hdf5.h (with a conditional include macro, defined in configure.in)
3) added the path to HL in all Makefile.am 's , because of the inclusion in hdf5.h
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux 32, 64
AIX
solaris
with fortran and c++
(one packet table example fails)
Misc. update:
Makefile fix
Description:
perform/h5perf is (currently) a test for parallel performance, but was
being built when parallel was disabled. Fixed this.
perform/perf had the same problem.
Solution:
Actually, perf and h5perf were being "built but not executed"
using two different mechansims. They now use the same mechanism,
being built and executed in parallel only.
Platforms tested:
mir, heping, sleipnir
Added additional targets to build-all
Description:
Surveyed files to find out which ones are not built.
Added test/space_overflow and perform/benchpar to programs built with
--enable-build-all.
Discovered that tools/misc/pdb2hdf5 and tools/misc/h5import were
obsolete and deleted them.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, sol
Misc. update:
Update of release file and removal of --enable-pdb2hdf5 to follow.
Makefile bug fix
Description:
Previously, automake didn't output rules to build perform/mpi-perf or
the test/gen_* programs.
Now these can be built by typing 'make mpi-perf' (or 'make foo') or by
configuring with --enable-build-all.
Solution:
Automake doesn't like having rules for programs it doesn't build. Tricked
it by having these programs built "sometimes"--whenever the user enables
--build-all. This should be used mostly for testing and to ensure that
these helper programs compile.
***IMPORTANT***
These programs do *not* currently compile. When --enable-build-all is used
(not the default), gen_new_fill fails because it uses an old API. This is
an existing "bug" that has simply been exposed by this checkin.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, modi4, sol
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Building with --disable-static seems to have been broken on several platforms.
Fixed this.
Configure will now disable shared libraries automatically when using pgf90
or when building on Cygwin.
Solution:
To avoid errors when using shared libraries with pgf90 (which I had not
realized were compiler-specific), I had manually set convenience libraries
to use the -static linking flag. Apparently, this is not necessary, and
caused these libraries to be created as empty archives when --disable-static
was used.
Also, some libraries were including other libraries, which was not
necessary.
I also fixed code in configure.in to correctly detect whether shared
or static libraries are enabled, and moved code that disables shared libraries
to before libtool is created (rather than editing libtool after the fact).
Despite repeated warnings that only one shared library can be linked at a
time, I have yet to have shared libraries break the linking of tests on
any system. We'll see if the Daily Tests turn up anything.
Platforms tested:
mir (fortran, C++), sleipnir (C++), modi4 (fortran, C++, parallel),
sol (fortran, C++), cygwin
Feature: make install now installs h5perf
Description:
h5perf is now installed in hdf5/bin during 'make install.'
Same change as in the 1.6 branch.
Platforms tested:
mir
Bug fix
Description:
Arabica exhibited strange errors when linker found wrong versions of
header files. This happened because include directories were
given to linker in the wrong order.
Solution:
Move include directories from AM_CFLAGS variable to INCLUDES
variable to put them before CPPFLAGS variable. Trust me, it works.
This bug may also have contributed to strange errors on other platforms
(kelgia?).
Platforms tested:
copper, sleipnir, arabica.
(h5dump broke while building on arabica, but this happened in
a clean checkout, too).
Configuration feature
Description:
HDF5 now uses automake to generate Makefiles
Solution:
Makefile.in files are now generated from Makefile.am files.
To reconfigure (after chaning a Makefile.am or configure.in):
/bin/sh bin/reconfigure.sh
Platforms tested:
Many
