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.
Description:
Fixed typos and re-arranged some functions to be in sync with 1.6.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (heping)
SunOS 5.9 (shanti)
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:
Linux 2.4 (heping)
SunOS 5.8 64-bit (sol)
Linux 2.4 w/PGI (colonelk)
Code cleanup
Description:
Trim trailing whitespace, which is making 'diff'ing the two branches
difficult.
Solution:
Ran this script in each directory:
foreach f (*.[ch] *.cpp)
sed 's/[[:blank:]]*$//' $f > sed.out && mv sed.out $f
end
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-)
Description:
Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections.
However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier
until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I
brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the
release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in
performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch,
but not the other.
I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label
"before_signed_unsigned_changes".
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel & fphdf5
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/backward compatibility
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/"purify options"
Solaris 2.8 (sol) w/FORTRAN & C++
AIX 5.x (copper) w/parallel & FORTRAN
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/FORTRAN
Linux 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Misc. update:
Description:
Updated various function headers for the RM as reviewing progresses.
Rearranged functions in header files for more sensible look of the RM.
Platforms tested:
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
Linux 2.4 (eirene)
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:
Add more C++ wrappers - incrementally check-in
Description:
Added wrapper for many C property list functions and added Doxygen
documentation to existing C++ functions in these files. This is
an incremental check-in to preserve the code, corresponding tests
will follow in a few weeks.
For H5PropList.h and H5PropList.cpp, added C++ wrappers for:
H5Pexist
H5Pclose_class
H5Pget
H5Pget_size
H5Pget_class_name
H5Pget_nprops
H5Pset
H5Pisa_class
H5Premove
H5Pequal
H5Pget_class_parent
For H5FaccProp.h and H5FaccProp.cpp, added C++ wrappers for:
H5Ps[g]et_driver
H5Ps[g]et_family_offset
H5Ps[g]et_fapl_core
H5Ps[g]et_fapl_family
H5Ps[g]et_fapl_stream
H5Ps[g]et_sieve_buf_size
H5Ps[g]et_meta_block_size
H5Ps[g]et_alignment
H5Ps[g]et_multi_type
H5Ps[g]et_fclose_degree
H5Pset_fapl_stdio
H5Pset_fapl_split
H5Pset_fapl_log
H5Pset_fapl_sec2
For H5FcreatProp.h and H5FcreatProp.cpp, added C++ wrappers for:
H5Pfill_value_defined
H5Premove_filter
H5Pget_filter_by_id
H5Pmodify_filter
H5Pall_filters_avail
H5Pset_shuffle
H5Ps[g]et_alloc_time
H5Ps[g]et_fill_time
H5Pset_fletcher32
For H5DxferProp.h and H5DxferProp.cpp, added C++ wrappers for:
H5Ps[g]et_dxpl_multi
H5Ps[g]et_small_data_block_size
H5Ps[g]et_hyper_vector_size
H5Ps[g]et_edc_check
Platforms:
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
Linux 2.4 (eirene)
SunOS 5.8-64 (sol)
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
Minor bug fix
Description:
Added missing "const" to the first parameter in two functions:
DSetCreatPropList::set/getFillValue
Platforms:
Only effected C++ API
SunOS 5.8 (sol)
Linux 2.4 (eirene)
Purpose:
use H5_DLLCPP to replacer __DLLCPP__ for c++ interfaces.
Description:
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux 2.2.18smp, IRIX64, solaris 2.7, windows 2000
DLL accommodation
Description:
In the inline constructor below:
DSetCreatPropList() : PropList( H5P_DATASET_CREATE) {}
H5P_DATASET_CREATE causes the famous "unresolved symbol" error
when building the Release version of dsets_cpp with DLL.
H5P_DATASET_CREATE uses H5P_CLS_DATASET_CREATE_g, which is
imported from hdf5dll. The inline constructor used in dsets.cpp
causes the use of H5P_CLS_DATASET_CREATE_g, which is then
considered undefined because dsets_cppdll is not using hdf5dll.
This only occurs in the Release version because the Debug build
disables inline.
Solution:
Made the affected constructor not inlined, i.e., its implementation
went in the cpp file.
Note that this problem does not occur in 1.4 branch because
H5P_DATASET_CREATE was defined differently, i.e., did not involve
external storage.
Platforms tested:
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
Linux 6.2 (eirene)
Windows 2000
Purpose:
Adding support for dll
Description:
Added __DLLCPP__ to all public classes and templates.
Added #include "H5Include.h" to H5RefCounter.cpp because of the
use of DLLCPP in .h file and it needs the following chain:
H5Include.h/hdf5.h/H5public.h/H5api_adpt.h
Added #pragma warning(disable: 4251) to H5Exception.h to eliminate
this warning on private data members of type 'string.' This
occurs because 'string' is not yet instantiated at compilation
time; however, since the class is exported, the warning is
harmless.
Changed this member function's parameter to be passed as reference.
from:
void CompType::insertMember( const string name,...
to:
void CompType::insertMember( const string& name,...
Platforms tested:
Linux 6.2 (eirene)
Windows 2000
Feasibility improvement
Description:
- Some member functions in class Exception can be called without
an Exception instance exits, but because they are not static, they
cannot.
- Many exception throwings don't provide any information to callers.
Solution:
- Add 'static' to several member functions in class Exception.
- Added <class name::function name> to some exceptions thrown
in H5File.cpp and H5FcreatProp.cpp. I'm trying this for users'
comments. More information may be added later and to all
exceptions.
- Changed the comment line for emacs editor to:
// C++ informative line for the emacs editor: -*- C++ -*-
because... I'd rather not say that the code "may look like C" :-)
Platforms tested:
Linux (gcc version egcs-2.91.66)
Bug Fix
Description:
Added comments to the top of C++ files to indicate that it's a C++
file and not a C source code file. Also added a macro which makes
emacs automagically enter c++-mode. (Recommended by Frank Schimmel
fschimme@monsoon.CAPS.ou.edu)
Purpose: bug fix
Description:
I found a couple of places where virtual destructors were missing
and could cause small memory leaks. Also, some destructors were
not virtual when they should be.
Solution:
- added virtual destructors, which also free dynamically allocated
memory
- added virtual to several destructors
- also, fixed several typos
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
C++ API for 1.3.x branch
Description:
The *.C and *.h files named different than those in 1.2.x.
They are in the form: 'H5' + classname, or just classname if
the classname is already prefixed with 'H5' to avoid ambiguity
in documentation context. This version has several hidden bugs
fixed and an improvement on the reference counting approach.
The classes and their inheritance structure are listed below:
---------------------------------------
H5Library
Exception
RefCounter
IdComponent
H5File
DataSpace
H5Object
Group
AbstractDs
DataSet
Attribute
DataType
PredType
EnumType
CompType
AtomType
StrType
IntType
FloatType
PropList
FileCreatPropList
FileAccPropList
DSetCreatPropList
DSetMemXferPropList
---------------------------------------
IdComponent uses RefCounter to keep track of opened objects
so proper termination of HDF5 objects can be maintained.
Each class has a .h file containing the class declaration and
a .C file containing its definition. In addition to the classes
files, the following files do not have class information:
- H5Cpp.h: header file to be included in user's application
- H5Idtemplates.h: contains a template function used by several classes
- H5Classes.h: contains forward class declarations
- H5CommonFG.*: contains common code used by classes H5File and Group
- H5Include.h: contains the hdf5.h header file and the #undef RCSID
to work around the problem: multiple defined RcsId
- H5Alltypes.h: simply serves as a container to hold the header
files of all datatypes to simplify the header file inclusion
Platforms:
Solaris (arabica) and Linux
