Robb Matzke 116491f0d6 [svn-r1112] Changes since 19990301
----------------------

./INSTALL
	Reorganized and added some additional examples.

./MANIFEST
./aclocal.m4			[NEW]
./configure.in
./configure			[REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in		[REGENERATED]
./bin/ltconfig			[NEW]
./bin/ltmain.sh			[NEW]
	Added tests to determine how to compile shared libraries and
	how to link programs with them before the libraries are
	installed.  Also how to install and uninstall shared
	libraries. The configure step also prints the names of the
	config files it's trying to load for easier debugging.

./bin/config.guess
./bin/config.sub
	Replaced with a newer version from GNU.  The changes we made
	to that file to report `irix6.x' and `FreeBSD' without version
	numbers have been incorporated into configure.in instead.  In
	the future, do not change these two files (see the top of
	configure.in instead). By the way, this update was required to
	get shared libraries working.

./config/linux			[REMOVED]
./config/linux-gnulibc1		[NEW]
./config/linux-gnu		[NEW]
./config/alpha-dec		[REMOVED]
./config/alpha-dec-osf4.0	[REMOVED]
./config/dec-osf4.x		[NEW]
./config/irix5.3		[REMOVED]
./config/irix5.x		[NEW]
./config/irix64			[REMOVED]
./config/freebsd
	Moved config files around to agree with output from the new
	config.guess.  The linux file was split into gnu (RedHat),
	gnulibc1, and gnulibc2 versions. The alpha-dec file was
	removed (I think it was unused) and the alpha-dec-osf4.0 was
	changed to dec-osf4.x. The irix5.3 file renamed to irix5.x and
	the irix64 file was renamed to irix6.x. The freebsd file was
	changed to point to linux-gnulibc1. These changes were tested
	on:

		Linux 2.0
		Linux 2.1
		FreeBSD 3.2
		Irix 5.3
		Irix64 6.2
		Irix64 6.4
		HP/UX 10.20
		OSF1 4.0

./config/alphaev56-dec-osf4.x
./config/irix64
	Added warnings similar to linux/freebsd about using compilers
	with known bugs.

./config/commence.in
./config/conclude.in
./src/Makefile.in
./test/Makefile.in
./testpar/Makefile.in
./tools/Makefile.in
	Added definitions for shared libraries. This has been tested
	on the following systems:

		Linux 2.0
		Linux 2.1
		FreeBSD 3.2
		Irix 5.3
		Irix64 6.2
		Irix64 6.4
		HP/UX 10.20		static only
		OSF1 4.0

	If you want to disable use of shared libraries (you probably
	do for development purposes since it takes a lot longer to
	compile and because you have to run dynamically linked
	programs in a special way if the library hasn't been
	installed) then add `--disable-shared' to the configure
	command line.  This is all documented in the INSTALL file.

./bin/release
	Temprarily commented out the MANIFEST checking when running
	under svf since svf is about to be replaced by a newer
	version.  This change only affects error checking during the
	release process.

./Makefile.dist
./Makefile.in
	Added `make check' which does the same thing as `make _test'
	since the former is endorsed by the GNU coding style and
	people are used to it.  The old `make _test' still works too
	(and so does `make test' if you use GNU make).

RELEASE [svn-r1073] Updated with recent changes. 1999-02-17 09:11:52 -05:00

This is hdf5-1.1.55 released on Tue Mar  2 11:04:51 CST 1999
Please refer to the INSTALL file for installation instructions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This release is almost fully functional for the entire API defined in the
documentation, see the RELEASE file in this directory for information
specific to this release of the library.  The INSTALL file contains
instructions on compiling and installing the library.  The INSTALL_parallel
file contains instructions on installing the parallel version of the
library.

Documentation for this release is in the html directory.  Start with the
"index.html" in that dictectory.

Four mailing lists are currently set up for use with the HDF5
library.

   hdf5         - For general discussion of the HDF5 library with
		  other users.

   hdf5dev      - For discussion of the HDF5 library development
		  with developers and other interested parties.

   hdf5announce - For announcements of HDF5 related developments,
		  not a discussion list.

   hdf5cvs      - For checkin notices of code development on the library,
		  not a discussion list.

To subscribe to a list, send mail to "<list>-request@ncsa.uiuc.edu",
(e.g., hdf5-request@ncsa.uiuc.edu) with "subscribe <your e-mail
address> in the _body_ of the message.  Messages to be sent to
the list should be sent to "<list>@ncsa.uiuc.edu".

Nearly daily code snapshots are now being provided at the following URL:
    ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/pub/outgoing/hdf5/snapshots
Please read the readme file in that directory before working with a library
snapshot.

The HDF5 website is located at http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/

Bugs should be reported to hdfhelp@ncsa.uiuc.edu.
