Code cleanup/bug fix
Description:
Fix configuration files to allow 64-bit compilation of the library with
a 64-bit version of zlib.
Solution:
Moved important compiler flags settings from CC macro to CFLAGS macro.
Instead of setting CC (F9X, CXX) environment variable for compiling for 64-bit
code, users should just set the CFLAGS (FFLAGS, CXXFLAGS) to -q64.
Updated INSTALL file to reflect this change.
Platforms tested:
IBM p690 (copper) w/parallel, FORTRAN, C++, srcdir.
Platforms specific - h5committest does not apply.
Description: I updated HISTORY.txt and RELEASE.txt files, and
ran bin/h5vers to change version number to 1.6.2-post0
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
Description: Changed version to be 1.6.2 and ran bin/release.
Since several files are changed, I am checking them in before
tagging the release
Solution:
Platforms tested: eirene
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
"make check" failed because the macro "$<" is not known to those
makes.
Solution:
Replace that macro with a string name in the form of a more basic
macro of "$@".
Platforms tested:
Using make in sol, copper.
Using gmake in eirene (serial and PP).
Misc. update:
Description: Changed version to 1.6.2-pre2 after creating a tar ball for testing.
Tar ball is on the FTP site, testing announcement will follow.
Solution: Used bin/h5vers on eirene
Platforms tested: N/A
Misc. update:
Description: Changed version number to 1.6.2-pre1 before creating
a tar ball for testing.
Solution: Used bin/h5vers script on eirene
Platforms tested: N/A
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
OSF1 machine at PSC barked at "make install" because an intended
comment was inserted in the middle of the column. This is not kosher
because officially, make comments should be started with # at column 1.
Solution:
Moved the comment of installing h5fc as h5pfc to start at column 1.
Platforms tested:
Not h5committested since this is exposed by the PSC machine and Elena
has tested the fix there.
Misc. update:
Feature
Description:
Added option -showconfig which Shows the HDF5 library configuration summary
Platforms tested:
No h5committest test which does not test these tools.
Tested in eirene by hand.
Misc. update:
Description: Bump up the version number before giving a tar ball to the MAC HDF5
Fortran user.
Solution: run bin/h5vers on eirene
Platforms tested: N/A
Misc. update:
Purpose: Maintenance
Description: Added Fortran support for MAC OS X
Solution: This port was tested only for IBM XL Fortran compiler
version 8.1 Beta.
Few things to remember:
1. do not use AFS to build Fortran; compiler
for some reason cannot find *.mod files that
were successfully compiled.
2. Fortran Library can be built only with --disable-shared
--enable-static flags.
Platforms tested: pommier, h5committested (it is amasing, but iot works
really nicely! Albert, Thank you!)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Fix szip FORTRAN tests..
Solution:
Increase the chunk size to be bigger than the szip 'pixels per block'.
Also add in code that checks for a maximum number of errors and doesn't keep
reporting that thousands of errors have occurred.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (verbena) w/szip & FORTRAN
Not tested w/h5committest since this combination isn't covered by it.
Buglet Fix
Description:
The FFLAGS environment variable wasn't being passed to the Makefiles.
The config files weren't including it when they set the FFLAGS
variable.
Solution:
Changed the FFLAGS="..." command to FFLAGS="$FFLAGS ..." instead.
Platforms tested:
Copper
Arabica
Verbena
Misc. update:
Description: Changes version to 1.6.1-post0 and updated
RELEASE.txt and HISTORY.txt filese fro the new version.
Solution: N/A
Platforms tested: N/A
Misc. update:
Description: I run bin/release to create an hdf5-1.6.1 release tar
ball. Now I am checking in modified files before
tagging the release.
Solution: N/A
Platforms tested: N/A
Misc. update:
Description: Bumped the version number to 1.6.1-pre2 after creating
a tar ball for the third round of testing
Platforms tested: bin/h5vers -s 1.6.1-pre2 on eirene
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
The Dependencies files for fortran/ weren't being generated properly.
The "top_srcdir" variable was pointing to the src/fortran directory
instead of the src/ directory. This is correct as far as configure's
concerned, but our code needs the src/ directory to work.
Solution:
Remove the /fortran/.. from the end of top_srcdir if it exists there.
Platforms tested:
Arabica (just needed to check that Fortran compiles okay).
Misc. update:
Description: Bumped up the version number after creating a tar ball
for the second round of testing
Solution: N/A
Platforms tested: done with bin/h5vers on eirene
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
"group" test was not updating total number of errors correctly.
Platforms tested:
None, just eyeballed it - too minor of a fix to require testing
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: Type of the third argument to the h5pset(get)_cache_f subroutines
was incorrect (INTEGER instead of INTEGER(SIZE_T)).
I was confused while doing my previous change since
fortran docs were wrong, and the type of the same argument in
1_4 branch is INTEGER. I forgot to check carefully #if def for
1_4 branch in the C code, and encountered only int type for the
corresponding C functions. Since Fortran doesn't support
backward compatibility, type of the argument should be
always in sync with the latest branch.
Solution: ALWAYS, ALWAYS pay attention to compiler's warning.
Fixed type to be INTEGER(SIZE_T).
Platforms tested: kelgia, copper 64-bit mode, solaris 2.7 64-bit mode.
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: Parameter rdcc_nelmts of the h5pget_cache_f subroutine
had wrong INTEGER(SIZE_T) instead of INTEGER type.
Solution: Fixed the type
Platforms tested: arabica in 64-bit mode (where INTEGER(SIZE_T) is not
the same as INTEGER)
Misc. update:
Add feature
Description:
Add H5Fget_freespace() routine, to check the amount of free space in a
file. This information is only valid until the file is closed currently,
however (until we start recording the free space information in the file
itself).
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Bug Fix
Description:
The h5fc script was failing to compile if --with-mpe was set.
Solution:
Added the "--with-mpe" check to the fortran library. This puts
mpe-specific libraries in the LIBS macro which is included into the
h5fc script.
Platforms tested:
Linux (verbena) Small change, so no need for full h5committesting.
