the file didn't have the data. It happened because each handle had its own
object structure, and the empty one overwrote the data with fill value. This is
fixed by making some attribute information like the data be shared in the
attribute structure.
Tested on smirom, kagiso, and linew.
Description:
Write documentation for building HDF5 with the latest version of Visual Studio, 2008. The process is very similar to building with Visual Studio 2005, but with an automatic project-file conversion beforehand.
Also adapt commandline build scripts for Visual Studio 2008 as well.
Tested:
VS2008 on WinXP
Description:
When specifying library search path in Visual Studio, use the DLL folder for zlib. Previously we pointed to the "lib" folder, which was causing confusion.
Description:
Modify Windows documentation to support Intel Visual Fortran 10.1. We have tested it in our Virtual machines, and have fixed the problems we were encountering.
Also, add a new parameter to the hdf5build.BAT and hdf5bt.BAT build scripts to support IVF 10.1.
- h5dump: when doing binary output (-b), the stdout printing of attributes
was done incorrectly. Removed printing of attributes when doing binary
output. PVN - 2008/06/05
Brought revision 15133 back from trunk:
Fixed bug in h5ls that prevented relative group listings (like
"h5ls foo.h5/bar") from working correctly.
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.5.3 (amazon)
Added and updated instructions for Red Storm serial and parallel build.
RELEASE.txt:
Added Red Storm information. Also, rearranged order of entries according
to more recent first.
Description: Removing make target 'make check-perform'. The extra target is
unneeded because the tests don't take as long to run as initially
anticipated, and can be lumped in with 'make check'.
Tested: kagiso
Description: The configure option --disable-sharedlib-rpath will disable
embedding of the '-Wl,-rpath' information into executables
when shared libraries are produced.
Tested: kagiso
Description:
-- INSTALL_Windows.txt:
-- Update szip version number to 2.1
-- Extra details for setting up 64-bit builds
-- Explain adding HDF5 link settings more clearly
-- Add link to FAQ
-- Misc. typos and formatting
-- INSTALL_Windows_From_Command_Line.txt
-- Add note about 64-bit support
-- INSTALL_Windows_Short_NET.TXT
-- Add notes detailing features unsupported on VS.NET
-- INSTALL_Windows_Short_VS2005.TXT
-- Add notes about extra features.
Description:
Small changes, such as commenting out an additional test and fixing the search path, have been added to the MinGW install instructions.
Tested:
MinGW on WinXP
Description: Tests in perform directory were never getting run, and
h5perf* programs were not being installed.
Solution: Added another build option, 'make check-perform', which runs the
tests in the perform directory. Also modified the Makefiles in the
perform directory to install (with 'make install') h5perf when
parallel is enabled, and h5perf and h5perf_serial when parallel is
disabled
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew
Usage is
-m T, --format=T
Where T - is a string containing the floating point format, e.g '%.3f'
The test consists of writing a number with 7 fractional digits (default precision display of %f is 6 digits) and have the 7 digits displayed with
-m %.7f fpformat.h5
Tested: windows, linux, solaris
Note: the output file was generated in linux, it may be possible that platforms other than the ones tested have a different representation of the number
Description: added new autotool version information (updated libtool from
1.5.22 to 2.2.2 and automake from 1.10 to 1.10.1) to RELEASE.txt
Tested: none needed, documentation update only
Fix bug which would incorrectly encode the member offsets for compound
datatypes whose size was between 256 & 511 bytes, when the "use the latest
format" feature was enabled.
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.5.2 (amazon) w/debug
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty) w/production
Minor bug fix to H5Aget_num_attrs() to return error when an invalid
location ID is passed in.
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 (amazon)
Too minor to require h5committest
Description:
The Windows suite of examples for HL C was a very small subset of the examples that exist for other platforms. Now we have all of the HL C examples-- integrated into the VS projects files, and batch test scripts.
Description:
Basically, remove the "hack" that we documented because we have a better fix now. With the latest changes, configure will avoid the cygwin bug, and no neccessary steps need to be taken by the user.
