Purpose:
Bug Fix/Feature Add
Description:
Added new flag ("-f" and "--family") to allow user to specify which
file driver to use to open the file. If they don't specify anything,
then it defaults to the old behaviour of trying each driver in turn
until one actually opens the file.
If the driver the user specified doesn't succeed in opening the
file, then we do NOT try other file drivers.
Platforms tested:
Linux
HDF5 version 1.5.10 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.
