General shared library improvements for CYGWIN / AIX Description: Shared libraries are disabled on both CYGWIN and AIX due to inability to build them correctly. Part of the problem in both of these situations is the lack of the libtool flag -no-undefined, which tells libtool that all needed symbols are defined at link time (a requirement on these systems) and that it's okay to build shared libraries. Another problem are lack of dependencies between wrapper libraries and core C HDF5 library. This patch addresses both of these by fixing configure to add in -no-undefined flag for libtool during linking and adds automake dependencies in the Makefile.am files. After testing, both CYGWIN and AIX now generate shared libraries, but there are still some test failures in each. (cache_api, dt_arith, and testerror.sh on CYGWIN, and fortran tests on AIX). Even though the shared libraries are not quite perfect, this is a general improvement to what we had before, so I'm applying the patch anyways. Note that default behavior of shared libraries on these systems being disabled has NOT been changed and requires the use of the --enable-unsupported to attempt to build them. We will need to address the test failures in each architecture prior to formally supporting shared libraries on each. Tested: h5committested & CYGWIN tested (on bangan) (AIX tested by Albert on bp-login2) |

HDF5 version 1.9.81 currently under development Please refer to the release_docs/INSTALL file for installation instructions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This release is fully functional for the API described in the documentation. See the RELEASE.txt file in the release_docs/ directory for information specific to this release of the library. Several INSTALL* files can also be found in the release_docs/ directory: INSTALL contains instructions for compiling and installing the library; INSTALL_parallel contains instructions for installing the parallel version of the library; similarly-named files contain instructions for VMS and several environments on MS Windows systems. Documentation for this release can be found at the following URL: http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/. The following mailing lists are currently set up for HDF5 Library users: news - For announcements of HDF5 related developments, not a discussion list. hdf-forum - For general discussion of the HDF5 library with other users. hdf5dev - For discussion of the HDF5 library development with developers and other interested parties. To subscribe to a list, send mail to "<list>-subscribe@hdfgroup.org". where <list> is the name of the list. For example, send a request to subscribe to the 'news' mail list to the following address: news-subscribe@hdfgroup.org Messages to be sent to the list should be sent to "<list>@hdfgroup.org". Periodic code snapshots are provided at the following URL: ftp://ftp.hdfgroup.uiuc.edu/pub/outgoing/hdf5/snapshots Please read the README.txt file in that directory before working with a library snapshot. The HDF5 website is located at http://hdfgroup.org/HDF5/ Bugs should be reported to help@hdfgroup.org.
