Description: h5pget_driver_f function returned information that could not
be interpreted by fortran application
Solution: Defined Fortran global variables that correspond to
the C H5FD_<driver_name> variables at the Fortran library
initialization time.
Platforms tested: heping with PGI compilers, sol 64-bit and copper parallel
Misc. update:
Description: Removed support for SRB driver
Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure
to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files.
Platforms tested: heping and shanti
Misc. update: ran bin/chkmanifest on heping
Description: Added missing h5get_member_class_f function
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping; it is a simple change. I will
watch daily tests and take care of failures.
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Added C++ wrapper for Packet Table API.
Description:
Added macro for high-level C++ library (LIBH5CPP_HL), which changes every
Makefile.in.
Added directories for high-level C++ library (though currently only Packet
Table API is supported).
Added both C++ source and tests.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, mir, modi4
Misc. update:
Optimization
Description:
Speed up I/O on enumerated datatypes (including those nested in compound
datatypes, arrays, etc.) if the destination datatype is a proper superset of
the source datatype.
Solution:
Detect the situation and treat as no-op datatype conversion.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Automake update cleanup and minor changes
Description:
Removed macros in acsite.m4 that are no longer used.
Switched to using autoconf's AC_LANG_PUSH(Fortran) instead of old
AC_LANG_FORTRAN9X macro.
Switched to using AC_LANG_PUSH() and AC_LANG_POP() (from old AC_LANG_X).
Added ifort to list of Fortran compilers configure will look for.
Added a note about automake change to Release Notes.
Platforms tested:
copper, modi4 (parallel and serial), eirene
Description: Support of hardware conversion between "long double" and integers(mainly in
H5Tconv.c) and test cases for it(mainly in dtypes.c)
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Description: H5Tget_member_value didn't return correct value if called after
H5Tenum_valueof. It's because there's a sorting on the members of enum type in
H5Tenum_valueof which changed the order of members.
Solution: Made a copy of original type and do sorting on it to protect the
original order.
Platforms tested: fuss; tested v1.6 with h5committest
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Description: For variable-length string, H5Tget_class returned H5T_STRING as
its class. But H5Tdetect_class and H5Tget_member_class considered it as
H5T_VLEN. This is fixed to let all these 3 functions treat it as H5T_STRING.
Some test cases have been added to dtypes.c
Platforms tested: heping - already tested for v1.6 with h5committest
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Description: The byte order for all 1-byte integer types was fixed as little-endian
even on a big-endian machine. This's corrected in h5detect.c. When types are only
1 byte long, a native int is used substitute the type to detect byte order. Some tools
like h5dump and h5repack are also corrected in this case.
Platforms tested: fuss, copper, sol.(There're some failures from the recent configure
change).
Misc. update: Information in the RELEASE.txt.
Description: Removed PABLO from the source
Solution:
Platforms tested: arabica with 64-bit, copper with parallel,
heping with GNU C and C++ and PGI fortran (but
I disabled hl, there is some weird problem only
on heping: F9XMODFLAG is not
propagated to the Makefile files
Misc. update:
Description: Start to support software conversion between long double and
all integers.
Solution: No major changes to the algorithm. Changes to configure is to
exclude SGI for long double to integers test because there're too many problems
in their compiler.
Platforms tested: h5committest, modi4, fuss, Teragrid, arabica
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Bug fix
Description:
Correct values used in "space utilization" equation: the 'used' and
'total' values were backwards.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Fix core dump when flushing a file with a newly created attribute which
hasn't had a value written to it still open.
Solution:
Write the attribute fill value when appropriate.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSd 4.10 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena)
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
Purpose: change feature
Description: Back up support bitfield and time datatypes in H5Tget_native_type.Leave it to future support. Let it return "not supported" error message for
now.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss.
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Bug fix
Description:
Relax restrictions on parallel I/O to allow compressed, chunked datasets
to be read in parallel (collective access will be degraded to independent
access, but will retrieve the information still).
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
h5committest
Description: enable size adjustment for compound datatype. The size
can be increased and decreased(as long as the last member isn't cut).
Solution: mainly check if the last member is being cut when decreasing
the size. Others are simply taking out assertion to enable this feature.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss.
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Bug fix.
Description:
Fix off-by-one error in Core VFL driver which would cause spurious address
or size overflow errors when an odd valued address or size was checked.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (heping)
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
Update release_docs/RELEASE.txt to describe options for dealing
with installations which insert extra text in output, thereby
breaking tests which function by comparing output with an exemplar.
Description:
See above.
Solution:
Add discussion of this possible problem, and listed two possible
solutions:
1) "setenv HDF5_Make_Ignore yes" and then score "failed" tests
by hand.
2) Use the RUNSERIAL environment variable to use a filter script
to filter out the extra text.
Platforms tested:
No testing needed.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Correct typedef for dataset region references to avoid struct alignment
issues on Crays.
Solution:
Change the typedef for hdset_reg_ref_t from a struct to an array of
unsigned char's of the correct size and propagate the appropriate adjustments
around the code.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (verbena) w/fortran
Cray T90 (subzero) w/fortran
Cray SV1 (wind) w/fortran & parallel
Cray T3E (cyclone) w/fortran & parallel
