Bug Fixes Description: Fixes for several bugs, including dumping of excess output to a temporary file, fix for printing hsize_t datatype, and the long awaited fix for intermixed output. Solution: Fix 1: Overflow file Previously, any output that a worker task made was buffered locally in memory, up to a point. Any output beyond the size of the buffer (used to be 10k) was discarded. Now, the memory buffer size has been changed to 1k and any output beyond this amount is sent a temporary file. This way, no output is lost and memory usage is kept under control. The temporary file is deleted as soon as a worker task finishes sending its contents to the manager. Fix 2: hsize_t printing Printing of the hsize_t datatype used to be handled by %Hu passed to HDfprintf. However, there is no corresponding HDvsnprintf that is able to print hsize_t types. These are now printed with the aid of H5_PRINTF_LL_WIDTH. Fix 3: Intermixed output fix Intermixed output would occur on some machines (although I haven't seen it happen for a while) due to the unpredictability of the underlying network and the speed at which various message would travel. This has been fixed by having all output send to the manager for printing. The worker tasks no longer print the output themselves upon receipt of a token, but instead send that data to the manager. Platforms tested: heping, eirene, tg-login (the only place that seems to still experience intermixed output every now and then) Misc. update: |

HDF5 version 1.7.46 currently under development Please refer to the release_docs/INSTALL file for installation instructions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This release is almost fully functional for the entire API defined in the documentation, see the RELEASE.txt 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. The INSTALL* files can be found in the release_docs/ directory. Documentation for this release is in the html directory. Start with the "index.html" in that directory. 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 "majordomo@ncsa.uiuc.edu", with "subscribe <list>" in the _body_, not the Subject, of the message. E.g., subscribe hdf5 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.
