super block. We took it out in v1.8 library because it's meaningless
for the MULTI file. v1.8 library saves the EOA for the metadata file,
instead. But this caused some backward compatibility problem.
v1.8 library couldn't open the file created with v1.6 library. I
fixed the problem by checking the EOA value to detect the file
created with v1.6 library.
Tested on jam, koala, and linew.
Test scripts sometimes need to filter some system-specific messages from the
actual output so that it can match the correct expected output. These filtering
functions, ususally called "STDOUT_FILTER()" and "STDERR_FILTER()" were being
repeated in individual test scripts. This becomes a maintenance problem and
is error prone.
Solution:
Extract the two filter functions code to bin/output_filter.sh and then each
test script sources it in. This allows reuse of coding and is much easier to
maintain and to add new filtering.
Tested:
LLNL Zeus (linux64 cluster) and Dawndev (Blue-Gene cluster), both for serial
mode only.
configure.in that tried to distinguish different versions of AIX. This is no
longer needed.
Tested:
NCSA Blue-print. No h5committest since this affected AIX system only.
Bring r20513 from trunk to 1.8 branch:
Correct several problems with compound datatypes that don't have any
fields added:
- Change assertion to error report when a file is encountered which has this
situation.
- Added check to attribute creation to avoid creating attributes with a
datatype like this (datasets and named datatypes already have the check)
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.3 (duty) in debug mode
FreeBSD/64 6.3 (liberty) w/C++ & FORTRAN, in debug mode
Linux/32 2.6 (jam) w/PGI compilers, w/default API=1.8.x,

Fixed Bug 2184 - GMQS: h5diff - incorrect calculation code for
--use-system-epsilon option
Description:
Fixed h5diff for --use-system-epsilon option: the calculation changed
from ( |a - b| / b ) to ( |a - b| ). This was decided for better
performance and was corrected only in HDF5 trunk, so 1.8 got updated.
Also comments for equal_XXX() function were updated correctly.
Also help page and RM got updated correctly.
Also add test cases for testing the differences w/wo the option.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE)
Fixed CHICAGO: Bug 2121 - h5diff - incorrect and lack of output for the
different set of attributes (different number and names)
Description:
Merged from HDF5 trunk r20294
Previously h5diff compared attributes correctly only when two objects have
the same number of attributes and attribute names are identical.
Also didn't display useful information about attribute difference.
This fix covers all other cases.
This fixes both issues.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE)
Fixing Bug 2092 - h5dump does not display index for a dataset
Description:
Merged from HDF5 trunk r20108 and r20132.
h5dump skip displaying array indices every certain number when the
array type dataset is relatively big. The certain number varies
according to the size of each array.
This checkin fix the skipping array indices problem. This fix also
correct indentation of the dataset data output.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), Cmake - jam
The content of bin/config_para_ibm_sp.sh has been added to
release_docs/INSTALL_parallel long ago. Just got around to remove it.
Tested: no need since nothing refer to config_para_ibm_sp.sh except MANIFEST.
Ran bin/chkmanifest.
h5dump: add dangling external link test case as part of Chicago project.
Merged from hdf5 trunk r19971.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), linew (solaris-BE)
a) Add comments to test_4() in test/external.c about the name "/ link".
b) Fix one memory leak in src/H5Lexternal.c: free memory pointed to by tmp_env_prefix for HDF5_EXT_PREFIX case.
3. Made changes for bug #1930 as in rev #19783, #19781 in trunk.
4. Made corresponding CMake changes as in rev #19782 in trunk.
Fixed Bug# 1979 Output from h5ls -rdlS on nested compound datatypes is
difficult to parse.
Description:
Update to add curly brackets for the nested compound members, when
S (--simple) option is used with -l (--label), so user can tell
which members blong to which compound type.
Merged from hdf5 trunk r19751.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE)
Fixed h5diff to handle variable-length strings in a compound dataset
correctly. Also variable-length string array in a compound dataset.
Bug #1989.
Description:
Garbage values were displayed when h5diff compared variable-length
strings (or string array) in a compound type dataset.
Merged from hdf5 trunk r19712.

Description:
Some failure occurred on talwit, so backout the changes and will put it
back after the fix.
