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/optimization
Description:
Address slowdown in MPI-I/O file metadata operations that was introduced
mid-stream. We now _require_ a POSIX compliant parallel file system for the
MPI-I/O file driver (as well as for the MPI-POSIX file driver).
Also optimized file open operation when the file is being created by
reducing the number of collective & syncronizing calls.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel
h5committest
Purpose:
Remove release number from document title
Description:
Removed "Release 1.4" from "Introduction to HDF5" document title.
Platforms tested:
IE 5
Purpose:
Improved tools index
Better categorization and consistency in style
Clarified notes regarding tools that are not included with the
library distribution
Added notes in the h4toh5 and h5toh4 descriptions that these tools
are now distributed separately (with pointer to distribution site)
A few dozen copy edits
Platforms tested:
IE 5
Purpose:
Fixes for user-reported Ref Manual bugs:
H5Gget_objname_by_idx: corrected 'size' parameter specification
H5Sselect_elements: Expanded 'coord' parameter description to make it
clear that values are 0-based.
Additional minor copy edits and formatting cleanup.
Platforms tested:
