 Known Problems
 ==============
+
+* The STDIO VFD does not work on some architectures, possibly due to 32/64
+  bit or large file issues.  The basic STDIO VFD test is known to fail on
+  64-bit SunOS 5.10 on SPARC when built with -m64 and 32-bit OS X/Darwin
+  10.7.0.  The STDIO VFD test has been disabled while we investigate and
+  a fix should appear in a future release, possibly 1.8.9.
+  (DER - 2011/10/14)
+
+* h5diff can report inconsistent results when comparing datasets of enum type
+  that contain invalid values.  This is due to how enum types are handled in
+  the library and will be addressed in the next release.

+* The links test can fail under the stdio VFD due to some issues with external
+  links.  This will be investigated and fixed in a future release.

 * After the shared library support was fixed for some bugs, it was discovered
  that "make prefix=XXX install" no longer works for shared libraries. It
  still works correctly for static libraries. Therefore, if you want to
  install the HDF5 shared libraries in a location such as /usr/local/hdf5,
  you need to specify the location via the --prefix option during configure 
  time. E.g, ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/hdf5 ...

Author	SHA1	Message	Date
Mike McGreevy	c14457b8b8	[svn-r21758] Release HDF5 1.8.8: - Update version number to HDF5 1.8.8 - Run bin/release to generate release tarball and to mark source docs as 'released'.	2011-11-15 09:47:24 -05:00
Mike McGreevy	f064c0ab45	[svn-r21757] Purpose: Formatting changes to RELEASE.txt - Clean up initials, date, and JIRA ID info for all items. - Remove fixed / inapplicable known issues. - Re-order items to adhere to reverse chronological order. Tested: None needed; release documentation only.	2011-11-14 15:10:19 -05:00
Mike McGreevy	be74742cf2	[svn-r21755] Purpose: Revert part of r21421 (F2003 merge to 1.8) which unintentionally removed a line from configure.in that sets FC=no when fortran is not enabled. This ensures that configure doesn't run compiler checks on a fortran compiler when it won't be used. (and can cause failures in configure when no fortran compiler is present as well as issues with the resulting src/Makefile when building DLLs on Cygwin) Tested: h5committest; manually on jam & bangan (Cygwin).	2011-11-14 11:47:13 -05:00
Scot Breitenfeld	8619b7f89b	[svn-r21751] Merged r21731 from 1.8 branch which should fix the race condition found with make test, specifically the test dataset test. Seems to have fixed the problem in trunk and 1.8. Tested: jam (gfortran), trivial file name change.	2011-11-14 09:55:35 -05:00
Albert Cheng	a85036c2ac	[svn-r21750] Corrected information for the Blue Gene entries.	2011-11-14 01:53:29 -05:00
Albert Cheng	aeb38bee25	[svn-r21749] Updated with information of LLNL linux cluseter, Aztec, and Blue Gene/P cluster, uDawn.	2011-11-14 01:30:58 -05:00
Albert Cheng	b46aa64eb0	[svn-r21737] Updated with INL Icestorm and Fission machine information.	2011-11-10 17:49:48 -05:00
Albert Cheng	9a4197b774	[svn-r21735] Updated with AIX 5.3 release information.	2011-11-10 14:51:59 -05:00
Mike McGreevy	1d3a167a80	[svn-r21733] RELEASE.txt change: Updated compiler and tested configuration info for NCSA's ember, and added NCSA's forge to the list of tested machines as well. Tested: Doc change only; none needed.	2011-11-08 13:14:02 -05:00
Allen Byrne	70fd407131	[svn-r21732] Update popular linux versions (debian, fedora, ubuntu, suse)	2011-11-08 09:01:25 -05:00
Dana Robinson	4cb32055a6	[svn-r21729] * Post-code freeze change approved by Mike McGreevy * Removed linking to the BSD compatibility library (-lbsd-compat) on linux. Linking to said library breaks the big test on CentOS 4.6 with gcc 4.6.2. Although this is an unsual combination of OS and compiler, we're reverting to the original behavior while we investigate the effect of the feature macros. Tested on jam and koala, incl. parallel and threadsafe.	2011-11-07 11:32:49 -05:00
Albert Cheng	f94c5adfdd	[svn-r21727] Bug HDFFV-2511: h5repack: failed in -q32 AIX due to memory Description: removed the temporary patch of RUNSERIAL=${RUNSERIAL="env LDR_CNTRL=MAXDATA=0x20000000@DSA"} and similaryly for RUNPARALLEL since the h5repack test failure was fixed and this patch is no longer needed. (IBM also advices not to hardset MAXDATA if possible.) Tested: NASA G-ADA AIX machine, both 32 and 64 bits modes. (No parallel test because not able to build or run MPI executables yet.)	2011-11-07 08:51:02 -05:00
Scot Breitenfeld	d6c0865f9d	[svn-r21724] Description: Brought r21719 from the trunk to the branch which removed using INT() on an already INTEGER variable for the input arguments to the verify routine. This caused an error in verifying results for the two integers on fred and tejeda when compiled in production mode with --enable-fortran2003. Tested: fred (gnu)	2011-11-06 19:07:38 -05:00
Raymond Lu	5aae6bdad9	[svn-r21714] I updated the compiler information for Solaris 5.10 (linew). No test needed.	2011-11-04 11:58:06 -05:00

Raymond Lu	8be272e6b3	[svn-r21707] I changed the some file names from "textXXXX.conf" to "txtXXXX.conf". Not tested yet.	2011-11-03 14:46:25 -05:00
Raymond Lu	27b4da506a	[svn-r21704] I corrected a capital option with a quotation. Not tested yet.	2011-11-02 14:05:49 -05:00
Raymond Lu	52b18f2da0	[svn-r21700] I changed the file name tnofilename-with-packed-bits.ddl to tnofilename.ddl according to h5dump script file for C. Not tested yet.	2011-11-01 17:28:22 -05:00
Raymond Lu	1ba2fbdeea	[svn-r21699] I updated the information for Mac OS (64-bit and 32-bit) and Solaris systems.	2011-11-01 17:02:31 -05:00
Scot Breitenfeld	93853852d9	[svn-r21698] Brought r21693 from 1_8 branch, which: Removed a not needed test in fortranlib_test_F03.f90 and made fortranlib_test_1_8.f90 standard compliant. tested: jam (gnu compiler)	2011-11-01 16:45:41 -05:00
Raymond Lu	abe8e2fa18	[svn-r21697] I took out the space_overflow.c test because it creates data file. Tested on VMS.	2011-11-01 13:00:04 -05:00

Quincey Koziol	bcc486d444	[svn-r21679] Description: Don't check dataset storage size for compressed datasets with region reference datatypes. (The address of the region reference type in the file varies and affects the compressed size) Tested on: Mac OS X/32 10.7.2 (amazon) w/debug & production + check-vfd	2011-10-26 10:34:15 -05:00
Raymond Lu	75e3efda6b	[svn-r21678] I commented out three test cases where the format of the printed output was slightly different from the standard. Allen said he refactored the code for the tools. It may fix this problem after he commits the change. Not tested yet.	2011-10-26 10:27:26 -05:00
Allen Byrne	13d49bef93	[svn-r21666] Remove extra letter from OPTION name	2011-10-25 09:46:49 -05:00
Jonathan Kim	fe77ae85aa	[svn-r21661] Purpose: HDFFV-7770 - h5diff segmentation fault on JPSS files Description: Fixed segfault over non-comparable attribute with different dimention or rank, along with '-c' option to display details. Merged from HDF5 1.8 r21660. Tested: jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), Cmake (jam)	2011-10-24 17:39:51 -05:00
