<h2>Release 1.4.2 (current release) versus Release 1.4.1</h2>
<dir>
Release 1.4.2 is a "Bugfix Release"; there are no API changes in the
underlying HDF5 library.
<h3>C Library</h3>
The HDF5 Release 1.4.2 C library is a "Bugfix Release";
there are no API changes in the underlying HDF5 library.
<h3>Fortran90 Library</h3>
The following functions in the HDF5 Release 1.4.2 Fortran90 library
have an additional parameter, <code>dims</code>, that was not present
in Release 1.4.1:
<dir>
<pre>
<font color=red>h5aread_f</font>(attr_id, memtype_id, buf, dims, hdferr)
<font color=red>h5awrite_f</font>(attr_id, memtype_id, buf, dims, hdferr)
<font color=red>h5dread_f</font>(dset_id, mem_type_id, buf, dims, hdferr, mem_space_id, &
file_space_id, xfer_prp)
<font color=red>h5dwrite_f</font>(dset_id, mem_type_id, buf, dims, hdferr, mem_space_id, &
file_space_id, xfer_prp)
</pre>
</dir>
The <code>dims</code> parameter enables library portability
between the UNIX and Microsoft Windows platforms.
