Description:
Changed all subclasses' setId to p_setId and put back setId in
IdComponent. p_setId is used in the library where the id provided
by a C API passed on to user's application in the form of a C++ API
object, which will be destroyed properly, and so p_setId does not
call incRefCount. On the other hand, the public version setId is
used by other applications, in which the id passed to setId needs
to be closed properly by the application, so setId must call incRefCount
for the new object to prevent prematurely closing of the id.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.6 (kagiso)
Still on going with these two platforms, but needed to check in before
daily tests start.
SunOS 5.10 (linew)
FreeBSD (duty)
Description:
A bug in reference counter was exposed when Ray fixed H5Awrite in
the main library. ::setId() called incRefCount when it shouldn't.
Made sure that id's reference counter is manually incremented
properly in copy constructor and operator= only. The main library
handles the rest.
Platforms tested:
SunOS 5.10 (linew)
Linux 2.6 (kagiso)
FreeBSD (duty)
Description:
The class hierarchy was revised to address the problem reported in
bugzilla #1068. Classes AbstractDS and Attribute are moved out of
H5Object. Class Attribute now multiply inherits from IdComponent and
AbstractDs and class DataSet from H5Object and AbstractDs.
In addition, data member IdComponent::id was moved into subclasses:
Attribute, DataSet, DataSpace, DataType, H5File, Group, and PropList.
Also fixed bugzilla 1045: revised Attribute::write and Attribute::read
wrappers to handle memory allocation/deallocation properly. (bugzilla 1045)
Platforms tested:
SunOS 5.10 (linew)
Linux 2.6 (kagiso)
FreeBSD (duty)
Tested platform:
Kagiso only since it is only a comment block change. If it works in one
machine, it should work in all, I hope. Still need to check the parallel
build on copper.
Refactor generic property list initialization code to put property list
specific routines in property list modules, instead of scattered to the four
winds. Also, introduce property list class initialization objects, to make
adding new property list classes in the library easier.
Fix daily test failure by using H5Pget_elink_prefix() API routine instead
of looking at the "raw" generic property list information.
Tested on:

Description:
Shanti compiler destroy unnamed objects later than others, which caused
some reference counting test fail. Revised the test so that destructors
are called at the same time, regardless the differences of compiler
implementation.
Revised some constructors, close, operator=, and destructors to make
sure that all the object ids are handled properly.
Platforms tested:

HPUX 11.00 (kelgia)
AIX 5.1 (copper)
Description:
Changed to alias string instead of std, i.e. H5std_string instead
of H5std, because the old way wasn't working when std didn't exist.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (heping)
SunOS 5.8 64-bit (sol)
HPUX 11.00 (kelgia) - this was the problematic platform but I wasn't
able to test before.
Description:
Added alias H5_std so either the global or std namespace can be
used, depending on H5_NO_STD.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (heping)
SunOS 5.8 64-bit (sol)
AIX 5.1 (copper)
Description:
There was a workaround for predefined types, in the C++ library,
implemented when the C++ library was handling the reference
counting of the object ids on its own. Currently, the C++ library
is using the available APIs from the C library for that purpose,
and there were bugs reported involving that part of the C++ library.
So, I decided to remove the workaround completely.
Also, improved the use of std members.
Platforms tested:

Code cleanup
Description:
Trim trailing whitespace, which is making 'diff'ing the two branches
difficult.
Solution:

sed 's/[[:blank:]]*$//' $f > sed.out && mv sed.out $f
end
Platforms tested:

Too minor to require h5committest
Description:
Added wrapper for H5Iget_type.
Added try/catch to many APIs that call private functions so that more
specific information can be provided at failure.
Added IdComponent::inMemFunc to help providing specific info.
Added const to parameters of several functions that missed that.

Description:
PropList::copyProp has incorrect prototype; although it works,
it does cause users inconvenience.
Solution:
Added another overloaded function with correct prototype. The
old version will be removed in a future release. In the meantime,
"Obsolete" will be displayed in its RM page.
Also, changed several checks on the returned value of a C API from
non-positive to negative because id = 0 is no longer significant,
now that the C++ reference counting had been removed.
Platforms tested:

Description:
The use of FileCreatPropList::DEFAULT sometimes caused failure
in the reference counting area. This occurs to all the default
property lists, which also include FileAccPropList::DEFAULT,
DSetCreatPropList::DEFAULT, and DSetMemXferPropList::DEFAULT.
H5P_DEFAULT was used to create these default prop lists and
because its value is 0, the id of these prop lists are 0, which
is rejected by the H5I functions during the reference counting.
Solution:
The main action to fix the above problem was to use
H5P_FILE_CREATE
H5P_FILE_ACCESS
H5P_DATASET_CREATE
H5P_DATASET_XFER
to define the default property lists accordingly. Yet, when this
fix was applied, some bug in reference counting was revealed.
It appeared that some ids were not incremented but were passed in
for decrementing. The following actions were then taken to fix and
improve the current use of reference counting H5I functions.
* added private func IdComponent::p_valid_id to verify that the
id is a valid id and can be passed into an H5I function
* used p_valid_id to validate an id before calling an H5I functions
in the reference-counting member functions incRefCount,
decRefCount, and getCounter
* changed to use member function incRefCount, decRefCount, and
getCounter instead of the C APIs H5Iinc_ref, H5Idec_ref, and
H5Iget_ref throughout IdComponent.
In addition, overloadings were added for incRefCount, decRefCount,
and getCounter to take an id different than the id of the current
instance; they can be convenient during debugging.

Platforms tested:
FreeBSD, SunOS 5.7.
Kludge
Description:
Since we're only about halfway through converting the internal use of
property lists from the "old way" to the generic property lists, we turned
off snapshots to avoid exposing lots of API changes to users, until the
APIs settled down.
Getting the snapshots rolling again seems to have become a priority, so
some changes are going to have to be made now that were going to be
postponed until we were completely finished with the conversion. This
requires that the old API functions be able to deal with both the old
and new property lists smoothly.
Solution:
Kludge together the property list code so that they can transparently handle
dealing with both the old and new property lists
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
New Features!
Description:
Start migrating the internal use of property lists in the library from the
older implementation to the new generic property lists.
Currently, only the dataset transfer property lists are migrated to the
new architecture, all the rest of the property list types are still using
the older architecture.
Also, the backward compatibility features are not implemented yet, so
applications which use dataset transfer properties may need to make the
following changes:
H5Pcreate(H5P_DATASET_XFER) -> H5Pcreate_list(H5P_DATASET_XFER_NEW)
and
H5Pclose(<a dataset transfer property list>) -> H5Pclose_list(id)
This still may have some bugs in it, especially with Fortran, but I should
be wrapping up those later today.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
Description and Solution:
- Predefined type objects become outdated when the application calls
H5close and then H5open to use the library again.
Solution:
+ Reimplemented PredType using enum type to obtain up-to-date
values for predefined types, i.e. H5T_xxx_yyy's, when they
are used.
+ Added to PredType its own version of getId() to return the
appropriate predefined type id according to the enum value.
+ Made IdComponent::getId() a virtual function
- Since Albert already fixed the "multiply defined RcsId" problem,
removed the now become unnessary "#undef RCSID" from H5Include.h
- Added a check for func_name != NULL in one of the Exception
constructors because seg. fault. might occur in some situations.
- It is more convenient to make a copy of a datatype, dataspace,
or property list by using assignment operator
Solution:
+ Added assignment operator to DataType, DataSpace, and
PropList so that they will invoke H5Tcopy, H5Scopy,
and H5Pcopy, respectively, instead of just simply
copying the data members as for other classes. So,
now a type, space, or property list can be copied by
either :
mytype = original_type, or
mytype.copy(original_type)
Note that copy constructors are still just copying the
data members.
+ Added an assignment operator to DataType that takes a
predefined type.
+ Made IdComponent::operator= a virtual function
Platforms tested:

Purpose: Usability enhancement
Description:
- Added more information about the failure to all the throw's,
i.e, member function name and more detail about the failure, where
appropriate. Also, added exception throws for private functions,
such as p_close to provide more specific details.
- Added two api functions: Exception::getFuncName() and
Exception::getCFuncName() to provide the name of the member
function where failure occurs.
- Fixed some typos, one of which caused segn. fault in some
situations (resetIdComponent was accidentally called twice
in a couple of places :)
Platforms:

Solution:
- added virtual destructors, which also free dynamically allocated
memory
- added virtual to several destructors
- also, fixed several typos
