+- New Features
+- Support for new platforms and languages
+- Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.6.3
+- Documentation
+- Platforms Tested
+- Supported Configuration Features Summary
+- Known Problems
+
+
+New Features
+============
+ Source code distribution:
+ -------------------------
+
+ The High-Level (HL) C APIs were added to the source code distribution.
+ For HL documentation, see
+ http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/hdf5_hl/doc/RM_hdf5hl.html.
+
+ The HL library, libhdf5_hl.a(so), is built and installed by default.
+ Use --disable-hl configure flag to disable the HL library.
+
+ Library:
+ --------
+ - We recommend you to use SZIP v2.0 with this release.
+ For more information see
+ http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/doc_resource/SZIP/
+ - The compound datatype has been enhanced with a new feature of size
+ adjustment. The size can be increased and decreased (without
+ cutting the last member). No API change is involved. SLU -
+ 2004/10/1
+ - Removed PABLO support. 2005/01/20 EIP
+
+ Parallel Library:
+ -----------------
+ - Allow compressed, chunked datasets to be read in parallel.
+ QAK - 2004/10/04
+
+ Tools:
+ ------
+ - New tool, h5jam. See HDF5 Reference Manual. 2004/10/08
+
+ F90 API:
+ --------
+ No new features in this release.
+
+ C++ API:
+ --------
+ - Started using C library's reference counting in place of the class
+ RefCounter, which existed before the C mechanism was available.
+ As a result, RefCounter has been removed. 2005/03/12 BMR
+
+
+Support for new platforms, languages and compilers.
+=======================================
+
+ Configuration
+ -------------
+ - Upgraded from GNU autoconf 2.53 to autoconf 2.59. JML - 2005/01/31
+
+
+Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.6.3 release
+==================================
+
+ Library
+ -------
+ - Fixed a racing condition in MPIPOSIX virtual file drive close
+ function. Now all processes must completed the close before any
+ of them is returned. This prevents some "faster" processes start
+ accessing the file for another purpose (e.g., open with truncate)
+ while other "slower" processes have not closed the same file with
+ the previous purpose. AKC - 2005/03/01
+ - H5Tget_member_value calls for enum datatype didn't return correct
+ value if H5Tenum_valueof was called first. It's fixed. SLU -
+ 2005/02/08
+ - 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. SLU - 2005/02/08
+ - The byte order of all 1-byte integer types was fixed as
+ little-endian even on a big-endian machine. It's corrected.
+ SLU - 2005/02/07
+ - Fixed segmentation fault when calling H5Fflush with an attribute that
+ hasn't had a value written to it open. QAK - 2004/10/18
+ - Backed out support for bitfield and time types in H5Tget_native_type.
+ Leave it to future support. The function simply returns error
+ message of "not support" for bitfield and time types. SLU - 2004/10/5
+ - Fixed address check in Core VFL driver to avoid spurious address/size
+ overflows for odd valued addresses and/or sizes. QAK - 2004/09/27
+ - Fixed problem where chunked datasets were not able to be deleted
+ from a file under certain circumstances. QAK - 2004/09/27/
+
+ Configuration
+ -------------
+ - IRIX64 MIPSpro compiler of 7.4.x supports C99 features. Default
+ to use the 'c99' compiler if available. AKC - 2004/12/13
+ - Intel v8.0 compiler would infinite loop when compiling some test
+ code with -O3 option. Changed enable-production default compiler
+ option to -O2. AKC - 2004/12/06
+ - Long double is assumed to be a supported C data type. It is a
+ standard C89 type. AKC - 2004/10/22
+
+ Performance
+ -------------
+ Many changes were made to the library to improve performance,
+ especially for the variable-length datatypes and metadata cache.
+
+ Tools
+ -----
+ - h5fc and h5c++ work correctly when -c compiler flag
+ is used. EIP - 2005/03/14
+ - Fixed h5dump to print attributes data in ASCII if -r option is used.
+ AKC - 2004/11/18
+ - Fixed space utilization reported in h5ls to correct error
+ in formula used. QAK - 2004/10/22
+
+ Documentation
+ -------------
+
+ F90 API
+ -------
+ - On windows, previously Fortran DLL built and tested failed.
+ Now Fortran DLL has been built and tested successfully
+ with Dec Fortran 6.6c or Dec Fortran 6.0.
+
+ C++ API
+ -------
+
+
+Documentation
+=============
+
+ HDF5 Library documentation
+ --------------------------
+ No substantive changes to the structure or types of content in the
+ HDF5 Library documentation.
+
+ Windows installation documentation
+ ----------------------------------
+ 1. On Windows zlib has been updated to 1.2.2. You may find the binary at
+ either http://www.zlib.net/zlib122-dll.zip or
+ ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/lib-external/zlib/bin/windows
+
+ 2. Only DLLs of external libraries (zlib and szip) are linked with the
+ HDF5 Library. We will no longer provide binary to link static library
+ with HDF5. For details, please check INSTALL_Windows in this directory.

+Known Problems
+==============
+* test/big fails sometimes with the message "Possible overlap with another
+ region." The test selects regions randomly, and this error occurs when
+ two regions overlap each other; it is an bug in the test and not in
+ HDF5. Since the error is triggered by a random situation, it will
+ usually disappear if the test is re-run.
+
+* Cray SV1 fails to correctly convert between floating-point and "long double"
+ for software conversion. Problem is being investigated. SLU - 2005/03/04
+
+* Newer SGI MIPSpro compilers (version 7.4.x) support C99 features but it
+ has a "guard" statement in stdint.h that will #error and skip the rest
+ of the header file if C99 option is not used explicitly. Hardset
+ $CC to c99 will resolve the problem. AKC - 2004/12/13
+
+* On IBM AIX systems, parallel HDF5 mode will fail some tests with error
+ messages like "INFO: 0031-XXX ...". This is from the command poe.
+ Set the environment variable MP_INFOLEVEL to 0 to minimize the messages
+ and run the tests again.
+ The tests may fail with messages like "The socket name is already
+ in use". HDF5 does not use sockets (except for stream-VFD). This is
+ due to problems of the poe command trying to set up the debug socket.
+ Check if there are many old /tmp/s.pedb.* staying around. These are
+ sockets used by the poe command and left behind due to failed commands.
+ Ask your system administrator to clean them out. Lastly, request IBM
+ to provide a mean to run poe without the debug socket.
+
+* Fortran subroutine h5pget_driver_f doesn't return a correct driver
+ information.
+
+* There are two h5dump xml tests(h5dump --xml thlink.h5 and
+ h5dump --xml tmany.h5) failed on windows xp with .NET for debug and
+ debug dll. Release and Release dll work fine.
+
+* The h5dump tests may fail to match the expected output on some platforms
+ (e.g. parallel jobs, Windows) where the error messages directed to
+ "stderr" do not appear in the "right order" with output from stdout.
+ This is not an error.
+
+* The stream-vfd test uses ip port 10007 for testing. If another
+ application is already using that port address, the test will hang
+ indefinitely and has to be terminated by the kill command. To try the
+ test again, change the port address in test/stream_test.c to one not
+ being used in the host.
+
+* The --enable-static-exec configure flag fails to compile for Solaris
+ platforms. This is due to the fact that not all of the system
+ libraries on Solaris are available in a static format.
+
+ The --enable-static-exec configure flag also fails to correctly compile
+ on IBM SP2 platform for the serial mode. The parallel mode works fine
+ with this option.
+
+ It is suggested that you don't use this option on these platforms
+ during configuration.
+
+* The Stream VFD was not tested yet under Windows. It is not supported
+ in the TFLOPS machine.
+
+* The ./dsets tests failed in the TFLOPS machine if the test program,
+ dsets.c, is compiled with the -O option. The hdf5 library still works
+ correctly with the -O option. The test program works fine if it is
+ compiled with -O1 or -O0. Only -O (same as -O2) causes the test
+ program to fail.
+
+* Certain platforms give false negatives when testing h5ls:
+ - Cray T90IEEE give errors during testing when displaying
+ some floating-point values. These are benign differences due to
+ the different precision in the values displayed.
+ h5ls appears to be dumping floating-point numbers correctly.
+
+* Before building HDF5 F90 Library from source on Crays
+ replace H5Aff.f90, H5Dff.f90 and H5Pff.f90 files in the fortran/src
+ subdirectory in the top level directory with the Cray-specific files
+ from the site:
+ ftp://ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF/HDF5/current/src/patches/
+
+* On some platforms that use Intel and Absoft compilers to build HDF5 fortran
+ library, compilation may fail for fortranlib_test.f90, fflush1.f90 and
+ fflush2.f90 complaining about exit subroutine. Comment out the line
+ IF (total_error .ne. 0) CALL exit (total_error)
+
+* Use --disable-shared configure flag if building with Absoft Fortran
+ compiler
+
+* Information about building with PGI and Intel compilers is available in
+ INSTALL file sections 5.7 and 5.8
+
+* In LANL QSC, the new cc compiler has problems converting small values of
+ long long (absolute values less than 1**-308) to double. This triggers
+ the test/dtypes to report failure in the
+ Testing random sw long double -> double conversions
+ If -ieee is used, the converted doubles spread over the range 0.0 to 1**-308.
+ If -ieee is not used, the converted double values are mostly 0.0 but
+ occasionally as 1**-308. This has been reported to the system staff.
+ All other tests have passed.
+
+* The C++ library's tests fails when compiling with PGI C++ compiler. The
+ workaround until the problem is correctly handled is to use the
+ flag "--instantiate=local" prior to the configure and build steps, as:
+ setenv CXX "pgCC --instantiate=local" for pgCC 5.02 and higher
+ setenv CXX "pgCC -tlocal" for others
+
+* Fortran release DLL randomly failed with compaq visual fortran 6.6c on
+ windows.
+
+* Fortran DLL built with Intel 8.1 in .NET environment crushed the compiler,
+ To build Fortran Static library with Intel 8.1 in .NET environment
+ needs manually setting the project file,
+ please contact to hdfhelp@ncsa.uiuc.edu if you need to build
+ fortran static library with Intel 8.1 with .NET environment.
+
+* On at least one system, (SDSC DataStar), the scheduler (in this case
+ LoadLeveler) sends job status updates to standard error when you run
+ any executable that was compiled with the parallel compilers.
+
+ This causes problems when running "make check" on parallel builds, as
+ many of the tool tests function by saving the output from test runs,
+ and comparing it to an exemplar.
+
+ The best solution is to reconfigure the target system so it no longer
+ inserts the extra text. However, this may not be practical.
+
+ In such cases, one solution is to "setenv HDF5_Make_Ignore yes" prior to
+ the configure and build. This will cause "make check" to continue after
+ detecting errors in the tool tests. However, in the case of SDSC DataStar,
+ it also leaves you with some 150 "failed" tests to examine by hand.
+
+ A second solution is to write a script to run serial tests and filter
+ out the text added by the scheduler. A sample script used on SDSC
+ DataStar is given below, but you will probably have to customize it
+ for your installation.
+
+ Observe that the basic idea is to insert the script as the first item
+ on the command line which executes the test. The script then
+ executes the test and filters out the offending text before passing
+ it on.
+
+ #!/bin/csh
+
+ set STDOUT_FILE=~/bin/serial_filter.stdout
+ set STDERR_FILE=~/bin/serial_filter.stderr
+
+ rm -f $STDOUT_FILE $STDERR_FILE
+
+ ($* > $STDOUT_FILE) >& $STDERR_FILE
+
+ set RETURN_VALUE=$status
+
+ cat $STDOUT_FILE
+
+ tail +3 $STDERR_FILE
+
+ exit $RETURN_VALUE
+
+ You get the HDF make files and test scripts to execute your filter script
+ by setting the environment variable "RUNSERIAL" to the full path of the
+ script prior to running configure for parallel builds. Remember to
+ "unsetenv RUNSERIAL" before running configure for a serial build.
+
+ Note that the RUNSERIAL environment variable exists so that we can
+ can prefix serial runs as necessary on the target system. On DataStar,
+ no prefix is necessary. However on an MPICH system, the prefix might
+ have to be set to something like "/usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np 1" to
+ get the serial tests to run at all.
+
+ In such cases, you will have to include the regular prefix in your
+ filter script.

Library
-------
- - Fixed a racing condition in MPIPOSIX virtual file drive close
- function. Now all processes must completed the close before any
- of them is returned. This prevents some "faster" processes start
- accessing the file for another purpose (e.g., open with truncate)
- while other "slower" processes have not closed the same file with
- the previous purpose. AKC - 2005/03/01
- - H5Tget_member_value calls for enum datatype didn't return correct
- value if H5Tenum_valueof was called first. It's fixed. SLU -
- 2005/02/08
- - 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. SLU - 2005/02/08
- - The byte order of all 1-byte integer types was fixed as
- little-endian even on a big-endian machine. It's corrected.
- SLU - 2005/02/07
- - Fixed segmentation fault when calling H5Fflush with an attribute that
- hasn't had a value written to it open. QAK - 2004/10/18
- - Backed out support for bitfield and time types in H5Tget_native_type.
- Leave it to future support. The function simply returns error
- message of "not support" for bitfield and time types. SLU - 2004/10/5
- - Fixed address check in Core VFL driver to avoid spurious address/size
- overflows for odd valued addresses and/or sizes. QAK - 2004/09/27
- - Fixed problem where chunked datasets were not able to be deleted
- from a file under certain circumstances. QAK - 2004/09/27/
+ - Fixed error in opening object in group that was opened in mounted
+ file which has been unmounted. QAK - 2005/03/17
Configuration
-------------
- - IRIX64 MIPSpro compiler of 7.4.x supports C99 features. Default
- to use the 'c99' compiler if available. AKC - 2004/12/13
- - Intel v8.0 compiler would infinite loop when compiling some test
- code with -O3 option. Changed enable-production default compiler
- option to -O2. AKC - 2004/12/06
- - Long double is assumed to be a supported C data type. It is a
- standard C89 type. AKC - 2004/10/22
Performance
-------------
- Many changes were made to the library to improve performance,
- especially for the variable-length datatypes and metadata cache.
+ - Optimized I/O for enumerated datatypes that are a superset of source
+ enumerated datatype. QAK - 2005/03/19
Tools
-----
- - h5fc and h5c++ work correctly when -c compiler flag
- is used. EIP - 2005/03/14
- - Fixed h5dump to print attributes data in ASCII if -r option is used.
- AKC - 2004/11/18
