---------------------- ./src/H5A.c Named data types can have attributes. Fixed bugs where the API functions didn't check the return values of their internal counterparts and thus the automatic error reporting didn't work. Fixed some places where the error stack wasn't cleared after a function returned failure. Data types returned by H5Aget_type() are always read-only. If the `attr_num' argument of H5Aiterate() is null then it acts like H5Giterate() instead of failing -- it begins processing attributes with the first one. ./src/H5D.c We check for allocation overruns when scalar datasets are stored in external files. ./src/H5O.c H5O_modify() will fail if the message is >=16kB. ./src/H5Oattr.c Split some long lines ./src/H5T.c ./src/H5Tprivate.h Added H5T_entof() to support attributes on named types. ./src/h5ls.c Prints the names of attributes and their sizes. ./test/cmpd_dset.c ./test/dsets.c ./test/dtypes.c ./test/extend.c ./test/external.c ./test/gheap.c ./test/istore.c ./test/links.c ./test/shtype.c If the environment variable HDF5_NOCLEANUP is defined then the temporary files are not removed. The testhdf5 program still has the bug that it removes *.h5, clobbering test files from other programs... oh well. ./test/dtypes.c Added attribute tests.
This is the hdf5-1.0.0a prototype release of the HDF5 library. 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. Three 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. To subscribe to a list, send mail to "<list>-request@ncsa.uiuc.edu", (e.g., hdf5-request@ncsa.uiuc.ed) 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". Bugs should be reported to: Robb Matzke <matzke@llnl.gov> All types of bugs Quincey Koziol <koziol@ncsa.uiuc.edu> All types of bugs Albert Cheng <acheng@ncsa.uiuc.edu> Parallel bugs Kim Yates <rkyates@llnl.gov> Parallel bugs Paul Harten <pharten@ncsa.uiuc.edu> Bugs specific to ASCI Red or to the hdf5dev mailing list.
