have 2 expected outputs for 2 h5ls runs depending if run on a big or little endian machine. Configure.in was modified to export a variable carrying endianess information to testh5ls.sh. This script then compares the current run with 2 expected outputs, one for a big-endian machine (linew was used to generate the output), other for little endian (jam was used to generate the output)
the way h5ls prints types, it starts searching for NATIVE types first. One solution would be h5ls not to detect these native types, using for example the same print datatype function that h5dump does, that would make the output look the same on all platforms ("32-bit little-endian integer" would be printed instead). Drawback, this "native" information would not be available. Other solution is to have not one but 2 expected outputs and make the shell script detect the endianess and compare with one output or other
tested: jam, linew
Description: Libtool wasn't working on linew because the script was
not working with the Solaris Bourne shell. Libtool has built-
in detection to ensure that it uses an appropriate shell,
but our config/commence.am was hard coding this shell to be
/bin/sh. Removing this line allows the shell to be picked up
by configure, thus allowing libtool to use the correct shell
on linew (bash). This was initially added to correct for a problem
on an old machine (janus), so shoudn't be needed for machines
we currently support.
Tested: full make check install on kagiso and linew, compile only
on smirom, duty, and liberty.
Description:
1) configure now sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH before checking for presence of
SZIP encoder, so user does not need to set this. The path is then
saved and sent to Makefiles, and used when "make check-install" is
invoked, so user doesn't need to set this manually.
2) Upgraded libtool to version 2.2.6a
3) Rearranged tools build order as h5dump depends on existence of h5diff
and h5import. Since h5dump is a sister directory as opposed to a parent
of either, it doesn't know about the build rules of these tools, so
setting any sort of explicit dependency confuses automake as it won't
know how to build the tools. Instead, setting CONFIG = ordered forces
an in-order traversal of each tools subdirectory. (without it will also
traverse in order by default, but this should prevent gmake's -j option
from jumping ahead as well). 'make check install' should now be able to
be invoked after 'configure' without causing a dependency failure.
4) Removed H5_HAVE_LARGE_HSIZET macro from vms/src/h5pubconf.h, as this macro
has now been out of the code for some time. (vms pubconf needs to be
updated manually, which is why it was still hanging around).
Tested: kagiso, smirom, liberty
Note: h5diff looks to be causing failures in h5copy and h5dump tools tests,
though these were present before any of my changes. My changes only
affect build order and configuration setup, and shouldn't prevent
fixes for these failures coming in after this checkin. Other than these,
tests pass fine.
Remove trailing whitespace from C/C++ source files, with the following
script:
foreach f (*.[ch] *.cpp)
sed 's/[[:blank:]]*$//' $f > sed.out && mv sed.out $f
end
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.5.5 (amazon)
No need for h5committest, just whitespace changes...
Description:
As part of our Windows cleanup, we try to remove windows-specific tweaks in the source code. There are many instances where Windows code is introduces via ifdef's. We re-evaluate whether they are still required, and found that many of them are not. Others we change to "feature"-specific code, rather than Windows-specific.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS.NET on WinXP
h5committest (kagisopp, smirom, linew)
Description:
The fortran Makefile.am used HDF_FORTRAN to indicate it is part of the
Fortran API source so that conclude.am will give fortran api prefix in the
test output. The symbox HDF_FORTRAN is also used in configure for a different
purpose (indicated --enable-fortran). They conflicted.
Similar problem for the symbol HDF_CXX.
Solution:
Changed all the involved Makefile.am to use "FORTRAN_API" instead. It is
a more appropriate name. Same for CXX_API.
Along the way, discovered that the Makefile.am of hl/fortran/test and
hl/cxx/test did not have those symbols at all. Added them in.
Platform tested:
Kagiso serial and h5committested (kagisopp, smirom, linew).
Improvement.
Description:
src/libhdf5.settings was the initial configure summary and is installed.
Then configure is changed to dump a summary of the configure settings to
the output and also append it to src/libhdf5.settings. That created
two different output formats and duplicated information. This is the
initial attempt to clean up this confusion and unify the output format.
It is decided to use the src/libhdf5.settings template as the unified means.
This requires more macros symbols be defined. The following symbols are
all related to generating the src/libhdf5.settings file.
AC_SUBST(EXTERNAL_FILTERS)
AC_SUBST(MPE) MPE=no
AC_SUBST(STATIC_EXEC) STATIC_EXEC=no
AC_SUBST(HDF_FORTRAN) HDF_FORTRAN=no
AC_SUBST(FC) HDF_FORTRAN=no
AC_SUBST(HDF_CXX) HDF_CXX=no
AC_SUBST(CXX) HDF_CXX=no
AC_SUBST(HDF5_HL) HDF5_HL=yes
AC_SUBST(GPFS) GPFS=no
AC_SUBST(LINUX_LFS) LINUX_LFS=no
AC_SUBST(INSTRUMENT) INSTRUMENT=no
AC_SUBST(CODESTACK) CODESTACK=no
AC_SUBST(HAVE_DMALLOC) HAVE_DMALLOC=no
AC_SUBST(DIRECT_VFD) DIRECT_VFD=no
AC_SUBST(THREADSAFE) THREADSAFE=no
AC_SUBST(STATIC_SHARED)
AC_SUBST(enable_shared)
AC_SUBST(enable_static)
AC_SUBST(UNAME_INFO) UNAME_INFO=`uname -a`
The src/libhdf5.settings.in has CONDITIONAL's added to it too. The
untrue conditions turned into a "#" and these lines are cleaned by the
post processing script.
Platform tested:
h5committest on kagiso, smirom and linew. (smirom had failures not due to
my changes.)
Purpose: Configure Fix
Description: The test program h52gifgentst was getting installed in the bin
directory during 'make install', and it shouldn't. Make now builds
the program for use in testing but doesn't install it during
'make install'.
Tested: kagiso
Description: Updated bin/reconfigure script to reflect the new versions of
libtool and automake in the /home1/packages/ directory.
Rearranged configure.in script. For some reason, when using
libtool 2.2, the libtool script doesn't generate until
later in the configuration process, so I had to move
a test that parsed through the libtool script to a point
after where it was actually being generated.
Ran libtoolize on the project, and ran bin/reconfigure to
regenerate configure and Makefile.in's throughout.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew, tg-login
Add work-around to allow reading files that were produced with a buggy
earlier version of the library, which could create objects with the wrong
object header message count. There is now a configure flag
"--enable-strict-format-checks" which triggers a failure on reading a file
with this sort of corruption (when enabled) and allows the object to be read
(when disabled). The default value for the "strict-format-checks" flag is
yes when the "debug" flag is enabled and no when the "debug" flag is disabled.
Note that if strict format checks are disabled (allowing objects with
this particular kind of corruption to be read) and the file is opened with
write access, the library will re-write the object header for the corrupt
object with the correct # of object header messages.
This closes bugzilla bug #1010.

2) Removing configuration of c++/src/H5cxx_pubconf.h file.
Reasoning: the additional pubconf file caused compilation complications, this is cleaner.
Tested: kagiso, smirom
Description: added new configuration to generate a pubconf file
in the c++/src directory, H5cxx_pubconf.h. When C++
compiler recognizes 'offsetof', the macro
H5_CXX_HAVE_OFFSETOF is defined in the new
pubconf file.
tested: kagiso, smirom
Description: a new configure flag has been created that will now set a macro
in the test/Makefile. The flag is with-default-vfd=. When set to
a virtual file driver (e.g. "--with-default-vfd=sec2"), the macro
DEFAULT_VFD will hold this value.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew
file size from MPI_File_get_size. Bypass this problem by replacing it with
stat. Add an option --disable-mpi-size in configure to indicate this function
doesn't work properly. Add a test in testpar/t_mpi.c, too. If it returns wrong
file size, print out a warning.
Tested on kagiso (parallel) because already tested the same change to v1.6 on
several platforms (kagiso, cobalt, copper, and sol).
bug fixes
substituted hize_t array index variables for int
stack corruption in the h52gif reading routine, wrote a new routine

tested: linux pgcc, solaris, linux 64
check if fseeko is available. Using it instead of fseek can support
big files because the offset is of type off_t not long int. Also
added the test for STDIO in big.c.
bug fix
a malloc call with an incorrect length caused several memory problems that ultimately corrupted a name passed in a list of arguments in the h52gif tool
allocated memory was not freed
tested linux
New feature
Add a tests script for h52gif tool. A simple script that just runs the
tool from a pre-saved HDF5 file and produces a gif file. A HDF5 test
generator program is also added
Note: the .am file needs further development, right now it is not
producing the test
Description: Multiple copies of Copyright appeared in Makefile.in. This was
due to automake copying the copyright right in the included files such as
config/commence.am.
Solution: Automake treats double hashes as comments and does not copy them
to Makefile.in. Changed all the copyright notices in config/*.am to use
double hashes for the Copyright right notice.
Tested: kagiso via bin/reconfigure.
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.
It seems that while Cygwin supports the time command, it has trouble with
the syntax
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" time ./testhdf5
and complains.
The solution is to test the above case in configure and not to use the time
command if it fails; Cygwin is fine with
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" ./testhdf5
Tested on Cygwin and kagiso. This feature shouldn't be a major compatibility
problem since every platform but Cygwin is already fine with the current
syntax.
The version of libtool used by HDF5 isn't directly affected by the reconfigure
script; instead, libtoolize --force must be used by hand. Libtool was the
source of the problem, so rolling its version back to 1.5.14 should solve the
issue (at least temporarily).
Reconfigure should still work on both heping and kagiso.
Tested on heping, kagiso, and tg-login3.
Should disable linking against shared libraries in Fortran for compilers that
don't support shared libraries.
Should also fix problem when the wrong Fortran file extension was specified.
If these changes don't solve the Daily Test issues, I'll look at backing out
the autotool version change until I have time to fix them.
Tested on heping, kagiso, juniper.
and quote its arguments. Also checks for the 'socket' library on
Solaris.
If this patch passes the Daily Tests and makes the user happy, I'll
port it back to the 1.6 branch.
Tested on mir and sol.
