Description:
On Windows, we manage dynamically-generated code through "post-build" steps in Visual Studio. However, the command for it wasn't checking to see if the code already existed, so it was re-generating in each build (and thus re-generating all dependencies). To overcome, we simply check if the source file exists before generating it.
Also, put all paths inside quotes so we can handle directory names with spaces.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
Description:
Previously, we maintained some source files that are commonly generated dynamically on other systems. Now, we also generate them on Windows as well. We should remove them from the repository so old versions are not accidentally used.
Also, clean up the project files to organize generator programs.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS2005 on WinXP x64
VS.NET on WinXP
Description:
Previously, there was Windows-dependent code inside H5detect.c, because not all projects could access the gethostname() function. However, we standardize our project-files to link with WS2_32.lib, so now this function is available. Thus, the Windows-specific code has been removed from H5detect.c.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS.NET on WinXP
no need to test other platforms, Windows-specific source change
Description:
In our debug project configurations, many of the projects were generating debug information for "Program Database and Edit & Continue". Other projects were using different settings, or none at all. We standardize to use "Program Database" setting, because it generates much smaller .obj files and cuts out unnecessary debug information.
This is another project cleanup and enhancement from user suggestions outlined in bug #1164
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS.NET on WinXP
Description:
On Windows, many POSIX functions have been replaced by a similarly-named function with some additional security-checking. Visual Studio issues a warning each time the POSIX version is used, recommending that we replace it with the new version. This results in thousands of errors when building the HDF5 library.
This checkin adds a Visual Studio "Property Sheet", which has been applied to all library projects, and defines a number of preprocessors to suppress these warnings. The warnings have been disabled only in Visual Studio 2005 project files, as VS.NET doesn't support property sheets.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
Description:
Previously, we provided a static h5tinit.c with our Windows distribution, and provided instructions to optionally generate it. Now, we will incorporate it as part of the default build process, to emulate other platforms more closely.
Tested:
VS6
VS2005
Description:
This checkin is another Windows project cleanup, and also extends our Windows support for 64-bit Fortran. Project files are now in VS2005 format, rather than VS.NET. A couple projects have been renamed to be more descriptive (*cstub rather than *_lib), and project settings make better use of build macros. This will make them much easier to update in the future.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP 32-bit
VS2005 on WinXP x64
Description:
Previously the process of generating h5tinit.c, as well as the Fortran type files, was very manual on Windows. For Fortran, the process included opening 4 different solutions, and running 4 different commands from the prompt. I've made things very much more automated, and now only requires only building one project for either C or C/Fortran. Running the commands to generate the file is done automatically.
Tested: VS.NET
Description:
Previously, we needed to force symbol definition "gethostname@8" for compatibility with old versions of Visual Studio. It appears that Visual Studio no longer requires this, so we remove it. This makes the build process on 64-bit much smoother.
Also minor updates to main documentation, command-line documentation, and removed codewarrior and INTEL docs.
Tested:
VS.NET
VS2005
chkmanifest
Desciption:
This is the first major check-in in the process of depreciating Visual Studio 6.0. We create a new directory, windows_vs6, which now holds all of our previous VS6 project files. We expect to maintain this directory for only a short time (perhaps one release), so users have time to make the change.
The ./windows directory now contains project files for Visual Studio .Net, as well as existing source and test scripts. This will allow us to greatly simplify the build process for the majority of our users.
We have created a new solution (.Net equivolent of workspace) that houses the Fortran project files. This allowed us to remove these files from the main solution, as well as streamline the conversion in the Fortran solution. It is also much easier now to convert to Visual Studio 2005 files.
Notes:
I didn't update the MANIFEST with this check-in, I will make those changes shortly.
Also, I haven't yet updated the documentation to reflect this check-in. That is going to require more work.
We will be giving a seminar in the coming weeks about .Net and how to migrate over.
Tested:
VS6/VNET/VS2005 on WinXP 32/64-bit
Support command line build HDF5 with Visual C++ .Net and Intel compiler
