Purpose: Maintenance
Description: H5_SZIP_CHIP_OPTION_MASK was deleted from the list
of the available parameters for the H5Pset_szip function.
Solution: Updated Fortran source, tests and documentation
to reflect this change.
Platforms tested: arabica (too small for h5committest)
Misc. update:
Purpose:
HDF5 now supports SZIP with no encoder.
Description:
SZIP can be configured to have both encoder and decoder or just to have the decoder. HDF5 can now query the configuration of any filter, and will throw errors if users try to write using a filter with encoding disabled.
Solution:
Added H5Zget_filter_info function, changed API for H5Pget_filter and H5P_get_filter_by_id. See SZIP RFC.
Platforms tested:
Copper (fortran, C++, parallel), Sleipnir (C++), Arabica (fortran, C++), Verbena (fortran, C++)
Misc. update:
Fixing Fortran DLL on windows
Description:
Need to use another macro H5_FCDLL to build fortran C stub library.
change all H5_DLL to H5_FCDLL in file H5fproto.h.
Solution:
see above.
Platforms tested:
eirene(fortran),
arabica(fortan)
Misc. update:
Purpose: Maintenance
Description: h5dwrite/read_f and h5awrite_read_f functions were overloaded
with dims argument being of type INTEGER and INTEGER(HSIZE_T).
We promised to remove overloading in 1.4 release. It was
removed from documentation but not from the source code.
Solution: Finish code cleanup.
Platforms tested: Solaris 2.7 32 and 64 bit, and copper with --enable-
parallel. Windows are broken, so Kent and Xuan
will test it with their changes later.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Clean up lots of warnings based on those reported from the SGI compilers
as well as gcc.
Platforms tested:
SGI O3900, IRIX64 6.5 (Cheryl's SGI machine)
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/ & w/o parallel
h5committest
Purpose:
replaced name of delete filter with remove filter for the new function H5Premove_filter
Description:
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Add C++ and FORTRAN wrappers for new H5Pdelete_filter routine, along with
documentation and a note in the release notes.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena) w/ C++ and FORTRAN
Too minor for full h5committest
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:
Bug fix
Description:
When two property lists are compared, the H5Pequal routine was just
comparing the raw information for the property values. This causes problems
when the raw information contains pointers to other information.
Solution:
Allow a 'compare' callback to be registered for properties, so that a user
application get perform the comparison itself, allowing for "deep" compares of
the property value.
This was exported to the H5Pregister & H5Pinsert routines in the development
branch, but not the release branch.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Purpose: Maintenance
Description: Fortran APIs MAC OS X port for IBM XL Fortran compiler
Solution: Brought back changes from 1.6 branch
Platforms tested: pommier, h5comittested; this time h5committest
complained about copperpp directory and didn't run;
tests on verbena and sol passed.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Start stripping leftovers from HDF4 out of this file, working toward
getting everything defined at configure time, instead of depending on the
framework of ifdef's used in HDF4.
Platforms tested:
h5committest
Purpose: Rolling over changes from 1.6 branch
Description: h5pget(set)_cache_f functions had a wrong type of the
third parameter
Solution: Fixed the type to be INTEGER(SIZE_T)
Platforms tested: kelgia, arabica 64-bit, copper 64-bit
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Cleaned up various compiler warnings
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena) w/FORTRAN
too minor for h5committest
Code cleanup
Description:
Removed "H5Git" routines, now that there are library routines which perform
the same functionality.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena) w/FORTRAN
too minor for h5committest
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
Description: On Linux systems valdrind tool complained about memroy leaks in the
following statements like
if(!a) free(a);
Solution: replaced the statements with
if ( a != NULL) free(a);
Platforms tested: eirene (too small for committest)
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Changed version #'s returned from H5Pget_version from 'int *' to
'unsigned *' since we are never going to be using negative version #'s... :-)
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir)
too small to need h5committest
Updated the copyright notice--mostly by rearranging
some text to make them consistent.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
"h5committested"--sol is down, so, no SUn test.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Switched 'hobj_ref_t' from funny structure with array inside to just be
'haddr_t', since that was equivalent and less confusing.
Platforms tested:
h5committested
Update
Description:
Revamped the configuration system. The configurations for the Fortran
and C++ libraries are no longer separate from the "main"
configuration system. This involved removing the "configure*" and
"aclocal.m4" files from the fortran/ and c++/ subdirectories. Also
merging settings in the config/ subdirectories into the main config/
subdirectory.
Fortran header files had to be modified a little for Linux. It was
checking if it was a Linux machine by some #defines, however with the
-std=c99 switch, these defines weren't there. I added a check for
some other ones which should be there whether the -std=c99 switch is
used or not.
Platforms tested:
Verbena (Fortran & C++)
Sol (Fortran & C++)
Copper (Fortran & C++)
Modi4 (Parallel, Fortran, & C++)
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Finish converting the B-tree 'K' values to use unsigned integers, rather
than signed ones, since negative amounts of entries in a B-tree node aren't
meaningful.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Description: When Quincey and I updated Fortran SZIP flags, we accidentally
renamed one of the C flags H5_SZIP_ALLOW_K13_OPTION_MASK used
by Fortran C-stub routine.
Solution: Fix the typo.
Platforms tested: Linux 2.5 and True64
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: Makefile.in has hardcoded dependencies. H5Zff.lo was
missing for the sequential version. That caused parallel
make to fail, since module HDF5 was built before H5Z.
Solution: Added H5Zff.lo to dependencies list.
Platforms tested: This is an obvious error and also due to the seminar and picnic
schedule I am checking in without testing. I will test it later today.
Misc. update:
Purpose: IA64 (titan) cleanup and backing up previous change to the
H5f90global.f90 file
Description: We defined IA64 variable for C-stubs compilation
on IA64 systems. But system defines __ia64 and
it is better to use it as we do on all other systems.
Fortran test failed since global variable became undefined.
Solution: Removed -DIA64 and use __ia64 instead.
Somehow removal of COMMON statements from H5f90global.f90
caused errors on titan. Most of the global fortran variables became
undefined. I am not sure why it is happenning. It may be ecc compiler
or there is an error in the Fortran code. Since it may take some time
to track it, I decided to remove this change.
Platforms tested: titan, arabica
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: On Windows Fortran szip test failed in debug mode.
It turned out that C-stub for H5Pget_filter_by_id didn't
calculate the correct value of namelen parameter that is
passed to the H5Pget_filter_by_id function. As a result
fortran parameter that hold creation property id was overwritten
and h5fdcreate_f failed.
Solution: Fixed the value of namelen parameter to the H5Pget_filter_by_id
function.
Platforms tested: Windows 2000 with VF both debu and release modes,
sol, verbena.
Misc. update:
Purpose: Code cleanup
Description: For some unknown to myself reason I used COMMON in the
HDF5 module that has to be included in all Fortran
HDF5 application. This is redundant and may cause
problems for optimization. Also COMMON is an "OLD"
feature and shouldn't be used.
Solution: Removed COMMON statements.
Platforms tested: modi4 sequential and parallel, arabica, vebena,
Windows with Visual Fortran.
Misc. update:
cleanup
Description:
Move the removal of libhdf5_fortran.settings from clean to
distclean target.
Platforms tested:
Tested in copper only since the change is trivial.
Misc. update:
Purpose: Bug fix
Description: One of the arguments to the h5pset(get)_preserve_f and
h5pset(get)_fapl_core_f had fortran INTEGER instead
of LOGICAL type.
Solution: Changed the type
Platforms tested: arabica and verbena
This is a very simple change, and I want to go home :-)
I will be doing more testing anyway on modi4 tomorrow.
Misc. update:
API tweak.
Description:
The H5Sget_select_bounds() API call was using hsize_t arrays for retrieving
the 'start' and 'end' coordinates, which is counter to the rest of the dataspace
API.
Solution:
Change the arrays to be hssize_t instead.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) w/C++
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) w/parallel
h5committested
Misc. update:
Updated all docs for this change.
Added 1.4 compatibility #ifdef's
Purpose: Support for Fortran Absoft compiler on Linux
Description: Absoft has its own name translation rules
for the names of C functions called from Fortran
Solution: Added "if defined H5_ABSOFT" statement to the linux portion
of the H5f90i.h file to define correct translations.
For now, Fortran users who use ABSOFT fortran compiler have to specify
-DH5_ABSOFT flag for their C compiler.
Platforms tested: Remote laptop running SuSE8.1 with Absoft compiler,
verbena with icc and ifc just to make sure that
our current linux configuration still works.
Since it is a pure Linux change, I didn't test it on
other systems.
