Purpose:
Use port hunting to test the Stream VFD
Description:
The stream driver is tested by streaming data
between two different processes on the local
machine on a given default port.
If this port is already is use, port hunting
should find the next available port to use.
The hostname/port information which is actually
used by the sender is written to a temporary
file which is then read by the receiver process
to connect to the sender's port.
For the purpose of testing I switched back
the default port to use from 10007 to 5678
which is at least already used by another
service on modi4.
Platforms tested:
x86 Linux, Irix 32/64 bit (modi4), Dec Alpha,
Unicos on T3E, Hitachi SR8000, AIX on SP2
This is hdf5-1.5.7 currently under development
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.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.
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 "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.
