Known Problems
==============
-* The test h5repacktst fails in AIX 32bit mode because the test is using more
- memory than the default value in the 32bit mode. The failure message is
- typically like "time: 0551-010 The process was stopped abnormally. Try
- again". This is only a test problem, not a library coding problem. Request
- more memory to run the testing. For example:
- $ env LDR_CNTRL=MAXDATA=0x20000000@DSA make check
- (AKC - 2012/05/09 HDFFV-8016)
-
-* The test file_image will fail its subtest of "initial file image and
- callbacks in ore VFD" if the source directory is not writable by the test.
- The subtest violates the standard of not to modify the source directory when
- --srcdir is used. (AKC - 2012/05/09 HDFFV-8009)
+* The h5repacktst test fails on AIX 32-bit because the test uses more
+ memory than the default amount. The failure message typically looks like:
+
+ "time: 0551-010 The process was stopped abnormally. Try again."
+
+ This is an issue with the test only and does not represent a problem with
+ the library. To allow the test to pass, request more memory when testing
+ via appropriate command such as:
+
+ $ env LDR_CNRTL=MAXDATA=0x20000000@DSA make check
+
+ (ACK - 2012/05/09 - HDFFV-8016)
+
+* The file_image test will fail in the "initial file image and callbacks in
+ the core VFD" sub-test if the source directory is read-only as the test
+ fails to create its test files in the build directory. This will be
+ resolved in a future release.
+ (AKC - 2012/05/05 - HDFFV-8009)
+
+* The dt_arith test reports several errors involving "long double" on
+ Mac OS X 10.7 Lion when any level of optimization is enabled. The test does
+ not fail in debug mode. This will be addressed in a future release.
+ (SLU - 2012/05/08)
+
+* The following h5dump test case fails in BG/P machines (and potentially other
+ machines that use a command script to launch executables):
+
+ h5dump --no-compact-subset -d "AHFINDERDIRECT::ah_centroid_t[0] it=0 tl=0"
+ tno-subset.h5
-* The test dt_arith.c under the test/ directory has several errors involving
- "long double" on Mac Lion and Duck, when any level of optimization is
- enabled. The only working option is debugging. We'll address this problem in
- the next release. (SLU - 2012/05/08)
-
-* This h5dump test failed in BG/P machines (probably other machines that uses
- command script to launch executables).
-
- h5dump --no-compact-subset -d "AHFINDERDIRECT::ah_centroid_t[0] it=0 tl=0"
-tno-subset.h5
- The reason is that there are embedded spaces in the dataset name and they
- got interpreted by the command script launcher as meta-characters and
- the single dataset name becomes three arguments to h5dump.
- This command passes if run by hand, just not via the test script.
+ This is due to the embedded spaces in the dataset name being interpreted
+ by the command script launcher as meta-characters, thus passing three
+ arguments to h5dump's -d flag. The command passes if run by hand, just
+ not via the test script.
(AKC - 2012/05/03)
* The ph5diff (parallel h5diff) tool can intermittently hang in parallel mode
when comparing two HDF5 files that contain objects with the same names but
- with different object types. (JKM - 2012/04/27)
+ with different object types.
+ (JKM - 2012/04/27)
* On hopper, the build failed when RUNSERIAL and RUNPARALLEL are set
to aprun -np X, because the H5lib_settings.c file was not generated
