Problems:
There were three separate bugs in the h5toh4 converter worked on.
They were:
1) When a loop was detected, the H4 file was missing references
to paths which were available in the H5 file.
2) When an H4 SDS or Vdata was created from a H5 dataset, the H4
object was referenced in the root group, instead of the correct
Vgroup.
3) The FIRST path taken to an object for the h5toh4 conversion
could not involve a SOFTLINK.
Solutions:
The bug fixes were:
1) All of the associated references to available paths which
occur in the H5 file, now appear in the H4 file.
2) After an H4 SDS or Vdata is created from a H5 dataset, the H4
object is tag/ref'ed in the appropriate Vgroup.
3) The FIRST path taken to an H5 object for the H5toh4 conversion
may involve a HARDLINK, a SOFTLINK, or neither. The same is
true of any additional paths to the same object.
Platform tested:
Solaris2.5

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
