./RELEASE
Updated with important changes I made since the second beta.
./src/H5A.c
./src/H5D.c
./src/H5Dprivate.h
./src/H5G.c
./src/H5Gprivate.h
./src/H5R.c
./src/H5Rprivate.h
./src/H5T.c
./src/H5Tprivate.h
Any API function that used to take an `hid_t loc_id' followed
by a `const char *name' can now take any type of object for
the loc_id as long as the object is somehow associated with a
file. Internally, H5G_loc() was modified to return an
H5G_entry_t* instead of an H5G_t* so it's more general.
Among other things, this allows one to retrieve information
about an object like a named type or dataset without knowing
the name of the type or dataset:
int
get_nlinks (hid_t obj)
{
H5G_stat_t sb;
if (H5Gstat(obj, ".", TRUE, &sb)<0) return -1;
return sb.nlink;
}
./test/gheap.c
./test/istore.c
These files needed a couple of changes because they call some
of the internal functions whose H5G_t arguments changed to
H5G_entry_t.
./src/H5A.c
Got rid of all the switch statements for getting symbol table
entries for varous objects and replaced them with a call to
H5G_loc() allowing attributes to automatically apply to any
type of object that belongs to a file.
./test/Makefile.in
Moved the ragged array tests from the normal list of tests to
the `make timings' target.
./test/ragged.c
Added rewrite tests -- rewrite the rows of a dataset changing
the number of rows and the length of each row.
./test/mtime.c
Added a test that checks that H5Gstat() can be called with a
dataset as the first argument.
./src/H5S.c
Added #ifdef HAVE_PARALLEL around code to check for the
HDF5_MPI_OPT_TYPES environment variable because the global
variable that gets set is #ifdef'd.
./bin/release
bzip2 uses .bz2 as the file extension.

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.
