Description:
When an attribute was created with a datatype or dataspace that was shared in
the same object header that the attribute was in, the attribute could not be
deleted. Changes made to ensure that the attribute can be deleted both when the
attribute is in the object header and when it is shared in the heap. Object
header message decode routines now take an "open_oh" parameter to enable them to
avoid opening the same object header twice.
Tested: jam, smirom (h5committest)
datatype versions are encountered.
Description: The library now recognizes some problems with datatype versions in
H5O_decode_helper(), and, if not performing strict format checks, automatically
corrects them. Framework added for other message decode routines to
automatically correct file errors. Datatype version information added to
h5debug.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew (h5committest)
Check in "unique, but sharable" optimization to ISOHM code, which
allows object header messages that are only used in one object to remain in
the sole user's header, but migrates messages that are used in more than one
header into the ISOHM heap.
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.4.9 (amazon)
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
Move "creation order tracked" flag from "group info" to "link info"
object header message and make the "max. creation order value" optional in the
"link info", if the creation order for links is not tracked.
Also, get rid of unused "index names" flag - names are always indexed
currently.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)
Revise latest form of superblock format pretty drastically, to
eliminate unused fields and move rarely used fields into superblock extension.
Finished removing last vestiges of references to (never used) i"shared"
object header message ID.
Added object header messages for non-default v1 B-tree 'K' values
and for driver info.
Updated testfiles to reflect size changes, etc.
Various minor cleanups, etc.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)
Mac OS X/32 10.4.8 (amazon)
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.
Remove the "scaffolding" for shared message method invocation and
simplify the way shared messages are dealt with in general.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)
Mac OS X/32 10.4.8 (amazon)
Add "set_crt_index" and "get_crt_index" methods for the object header
message class.
Unify fractal heap definitions for shared messages and attributes, under
"object header" fractal heap definitions.
Initial code for adding creation order index to object header messages.
Tested on:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
Added can_share callback for OH messages. This determines whether the
message is allowed to be shared in the heap (committed and immutable datatypes
can't be).
Fixed a bug in the dense attribute storage that tried to open the shared message
heap when it hadn't been created yet.
Made the test to extend shared dataspace messages a bit more robust.
Refactored the code the searches a shared message list index to be a little
more efficient.
A few other minor changes.
Tested on smirom, kagiso, Windows, and juniper.
Add first pass of "dense" attribute storage to objects. Lots of parts of
this are stubbed out, but all the tests are passing and I'll work on the corner
cases soon.
Eliminated several unused parameters from object header message callback
routines.
Other, miscellaneous code cleanups, etc. (and probably some things I've
forgotten about... :-)
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux/32 2.4 (heping)
AIX/32 5.? (copper)
Reduce the size of some of the group information to more reasonable bounds.
(16-bit values instead of 32-bit values).
Tested on:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
This feature is still in progress; Shared Object Header Messages are not
complete as a feature and are not thoroughly tested. There are still
"TODO" comments in the code (comments with the word "JAMES" in them,
so as not to be confused with other TODO comments).
Hopefully this checkin will reduce the liklihood of conflicts as I finish
implementing this feature.
All current tests pass on juniper, copper (parallel), heping, kagiso, and mir.
Update datasets and the layout, attributes and fill-value
object header messages to use the latest version
of the file format flag.
Tested on:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux/64 2.4 (mir)
Linux/32 2.4 (heping)
Further minor modifications to the file format for tracking links in groups.
This is tentatively the "final" file format for groups.
Tested on:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
File format is not stable, don't keep files produced!
Description:
First stage of checkins modifying the format of groups to support creation
order. Implement "dense" storage for links in groups.
Try to clarify some of the symbols for the H5L API.
Add the H5Pset_latest_format() flag for FAPLs, to choose to use the newest
file format options (including "dense" link storage in groups)
Add the H5Pset_track_creation_order() flag for GCPLs, to enable creation
order tracking in groups (although no index on creation order yet).
Remove --enable-group-revision configure flag, as file format issues are
now handled in a backwardly/forwardly compatible way.
Clean up lots of compiler warnings and other minor formatting issues.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 4.11 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
Linux/32 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Linux/64 2.4 (mir) w/enable-v1.6 compa
Mac OSX/32 10.4.8 (amazon)
AIX 5.3 (copper) w/parallel & FORTRAN
"Hide" file format changes (for now)
Description:
Add ifdef's (controlled by the --enable-group-revision configure flag)
to disable group revision changes to the file format, in order to allow alpha
release to go ahead without releasing an unsupported version into the wild.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 32-bit (heping)
Linux 2.4 64-bit (mir)
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)
New feature
Description:
Add in a combination of Peter's & my code to support copying
variable-length data from one file to another, although currently only
supported with contiguous data storage.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
h5committest
New feature
Description:
Check in baseline for compact group revisions, which radically revises the
source code for managing groups and object headers.
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
This initiates the "unstable" phase of the 1.7.x branch, leading up
to the 1.8.0 release. Please test this code, but do _NOT_ keep files created
with it - the format will change again before the release and you will not
be able to read your old files!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
Solution:
There's too many changes to really describe them all, but some of them
include:
- Stop abusing the H5G_entry_t structure and split it into two separate
structures for non-symbol table node use within the library: H5O_loc_t
for object locations in a file and H5G_name_t to store the path to
an opened object. H5G_entry_t is now only used for storing symbol
table entries on disk.
- Retire H5G_namei() in favor of a more general mechanism for traversing
group paths and issuing callbacks on objects located. This gets us out
of the business of hacking H5G_namei() for new features, generally.
- Revised H5O* routines to take a H5O_loc_t instead of H5G_entry_t
- Lots more...
Platforms tested:
h5committested and maybe another dozen configurations.... :-)
