+
+- New Features
+- Support for new platforms and languages
+- Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.8.1
+- Platforms Tested
+- Supported Configuration Features Summary
+- Known Problems
+
+
+New Features
+============
+
+ Configuration
+ -------------
+ - Upgraded libtool to version 2.2.6a. (MAM - 2008/10/15).
+
+ Library
+ -------
+ - Added two new public routines: H5Pget_elink_fapl() and
+ H5Pset_elink_fapl(). (see bug #1247) (VC - 2008/10/13)
+ - Improved free space tracking in file to be faster. (QAK - 2008/10/06)
+ - Added 'mounted' field to H5G_info_t struct. (QAK - 2008/07/15)
+
+ Parallel Library
+ ----------------
+ - None
+
+ Tools
+ -----
+ - h5repack: added new options -u and -b to add a userblock to an HDF5
+ file during the repack. (PVN - 2008/08/26)
+ - h5repack: added options -t and -a to call H5Pset_alignment while
+ creating a repacked file. (PVN - 2008/08/29)
+ - h5ls: added capability to traverse through external links when the -r
+ (recursive) flag is given. (NAF - 2008/09/16)
+ - h5ls: added -E option to enable traversal of external links.
+ h5ls will not traverse external links without this flag being set.
+ (NAF - 2008/10/06)
+ - h5dump: when -b flag is used without a keyword after it, binary
+ output defaults to NATIVE. MEMORY keyword was deprecated
+ and replaced by NATIVE keyword. (PVN - 2008/10/30)
+ - h5diff: returns 1 when file graphs differ by any object.
+ Error return code was changed to 2 from -1. (PVN - 2008/10/30)
+ - h5import: TEXTFPE (scientific format) was deprecated. Use TEXTFP
+ instead (PVN - 2008/10/30)
+
+
+
+ F90 API
+ ------
+ - Added optional parameter 'mounted' to H5Gget_info_f,
+ H5Gget_info_by_idx_f, H5Gget_info_by_name_f (MSB - 2008/09/24)
+ - Added H5Tget_native_type_f (MSB - 2008/09/30)
+
+
+ C++ API
+ ------
+ - These member functions were added as wrapper for H5Rdereference to
+ replace the incorrect IdComponent::dereference().
+ void H5Object::dereference(H5Object& obj, void* ref,
+ H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ void H5Object::dereference(H5File& h5file, void* ref,
+ H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ void H5Object::dereference(Attribute& obj, void* ref,
+ H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+
+ In addition, these constructors were added to create the associated
+ objects by way of dereference:
+ DataSet(H5Object& obj, void* ref, H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ DataSet(H5File& file, void* ref, H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ DataSet(Attribute& attr, void* ref, H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ Group(H5Object& obj, void* ref, H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ Group(H5File& obj, void* ref, H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ Group(Attribute& attr, void* ref, H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ DataType(H5Object& obj, void* ref, H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ DataType(H5File& file, void* ref, H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ DataType(Attribute& attr, void* ref, H5R_type_t ref_type=H5R_OBJECT)
+ (BMR - 2008/10/29)
+
+
+Support for New Platforms, Languages, and Compilers
+===================================================
+ - Intel 10.1 is supported on Mac OS X 10.5.4.
+ Note:
+ When Fortran is enabled, configure automatically
+ disables the build of shared libraries (i.e., only
+ static C and C++ HDF5 libraries will be built
+ along with the static HDF5 Fortran library).
+ Intel 10.1 C and C++ compilers require
+ "-no-multibyte-chars" compilation flag due to the known
+ bug in the compilers.
+ (EIP - 2008/10/30)
+
+
+Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.8.1
+==========================
+
+ Configuration
+ -------------
+ - Fixed error with 'make check install' failing due to h5dump
+ needing other tools built first. (MAM - 2008/10/15).
+ - When using shared szip, it is no longer necessary to specify
+ the path to the shared szip libraries in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
+ (MAM - 2008/10/15).
+ - The file libhdf5_fortran.settings is not installed since its content
+ is included in libhdf5.settings now. (AKC - 2008/10/21)
+ - "make DESTDIR=xxx install" failed to install some tools and files
+ (e.g., h5cc and fortran modules). Fixed. (AKC - 2008/10/8).
+
+ Library
+ -------
+ - H5Ovisit and H5Ovisit_by_name will now properly terminate when the
+ callback function returns a positive value on the starting object.
+ (NAF - 2008/11/03)
+ - Fixed an error where a null message could be created that was larger
+ than could be written to the file. (NAF - 2008/10/23)
+ - Corrected error with family/split/multi VFD not updating driver info
+ when "latest" version of the file format used. (QAK - 2008/10/14)
+ - Corrected alignment+threshold errors to work correctly when metadata
+ aggregation is enabled. (QAK - 2008/10/06)
+ - Changed H5Fget_obj_count and H5Fget_obj_ids to ignore objects
+ registered by the library for internal library use.
+ (NAF - 2008/10/06)
+ - Fixed potential memory leak during compound conversion.
+ (NAF - 2008/10/06)
+ - Changed the return value of H5Fget_obj_count from INT to SSIZE_T.
+ Also changed the return value of H5Fget_obj_ids from HERR_T to
+ SSIZE_T and the type of the parameter MAX_OBJS from INT to SIZE_T.
+ (SLU - 2008/09/26)
+ - Fixed an issue that could cause data to be improperly overwritten
+ during compound type conversion. (NAF - 2008/09/19)
+ - Fixed pointer alignment violations that could occur during vlen
+ conversion. (NAF - 2008/09/16)
+ - Fixed problem where library could cause a segmentation fault when
+ an invalid location ID was given to H5Giterate(). (QAK - 2008/08/19)
+ - Fixed improper shutdown when objects have reference count > 1. The
+ library now tracks reference count due to the application separately
+ from that due to internal library routines. (NAF - 2008/08/19)
+ - Fixed assertion failure caused by incorrect array datatype version.
+ (NAF - 2008/08/08)
+ - Fixed an issue where mount point traversal would fail when using
+ multiple handles for the child. (NAF - 2008/08/07)
+ - Fixed an issue where mount points were inaccessible when using
+ multiple file handles for the parent. The mount table is now in
+ the shared file structure (the parent pointer is still in the
+ top structure). (NAF - 2008/08/07)
+ - Fixed assertion failure caused by incorrect array datatype version.
+ (NAF - 2008/08/04)
+ - Fixed issue where a group could have a file mounted on it twice.
+ (QAK - 2008/07/15)
+ - When an attribute was opened twice and data was written with
+ one of the handles, the file didn't have the data. It happened
+ because each handle had its own object structure, and the empty
+ one overwrote the data with fill value. This is fixed by making
+ some attribute information like the data be shared in the
+ attribute structure. (SLU - 2008/07/07)
+ - Fixed a Windows-specific issue in the ohdr test which was causing
+ users in some timezones to get false errors. This a deficiency in
+ the Windows mktime() function, and has been handled properly.
+ (SJW - 2008/06/19)
+
+ Parallel Library
+ ----------------
+ - None
+
+ Tools
+ -----
+ - h5dump now checks for uniqueness of committed datatypes.
+ (NAF - 2008/10/15)
+ - Fixed unnecessary indentation of committed datatypes in h5dump.
+ (NAF - 2008/10/15)
+ - Fixed bugs in h5stat: segmemtation fault when printing groups and
+ print warning message when traversal of objects is unsuccessful.
+ (see bug #1253) (VC- 2008/10/13)
+ - Fixed bug in h5ls that prevented relative group listings (like
+ "h5ls foo.h5/bar") from working correctly (QAK - 2008/06/03)
+ - h5dump: when doing binary output (-b), the stdout printing of
+ attributes was done incorrectly. Removed printing of attributes
+ when doing binary output. (PVN - 2008/06/05)
+
+
+ F90 API
+ ------
+ - h5sselect_elements_f: Added additional operators H5S_SELECT_APPEND
+ and H5S_SELECT_PREPEND (MSB - 2008/09/30)
+ - h5sget_select_elem_pointlist: Fixed list of returned points by
+ rearranging the point list correctly by accounting for C
+ conventions. (MSB - 2008/09/30)
+ - h5sget_select_hyper_blocklist_f: Fixed error in transposed dimension
+ of arrays.(MSB - 2008/9/30)
+ - h5sget_select_bounds_f: Swapped array bounds to account for C and
+ Fortran reversed array notation (MSB - 2008/9/30)
+ - Changed to initializing string to a blank character instead of a
+ null type in tH5P.f90 to fix compiling error using AIX 5.3.0
+ (MSB - 2008/7/29)
+ - Fixed missing commas in H5test_kind.f90 detected by NAG compiler
+ (MSB - 2008/7/29)
+ - Fixed passing and array to a scalar in tH5A_1_8.f90 detected by
+ NAG compiler (MSB - 2008/7/29)
+ - Added the ability of the test programs to use the status of
+ HDF5_NOCLEANUP to determine if the *.h5 files should be removed
+ or not after the tests are completed (MSB - 2008/10/1)
+ - In nh5tget_offset_c: (MSB 9/12/2008)
+ If offset was equal to 0 it returned the error code of -1,
+ this was changed to return an error code of -1 when the offset
+ value is < 0.
+ - Uses intrinsic Fortran function SIZEOF if available when detecting
+ type of INTEGERs and REALs in H5test_kind.f90 (MSB - 2008/9/3)
+ - Put the DOUBLE PRECISION interfaces in a separate module and
+ added a USE statement for the module. The interfaces are
+ included/excluded depending on the state of FORTRAN_DEFAULT_REAL
+ is DBLE_F which detects if the default REAL is DOUBLE PRECISION.
+ This allows the library to be compiled with -r8 Fortran flag
+ without the user needing to edit the source code.
+ (MSB - 200/8/27)
+ - Enable building shared library for fortran by adding the flag -fPIC
+ to the compile flags for versions of Intel Fortran compiler >=9
+ (MSB - 2008/8/26)
+
+ C++ API
+ ------
+ - Fixed a design bug which allowed an Attribute object to create/modify
+ attributes (bugzilla #1068). The API class hierarchy was revised
+ to address the problem. Classes AbstractDS and Attribute are moved
+ out of H5Object. Class Attribute now multiply inherits from
+ IdComponent and AbstractDs and class DataSet from H5Object and
+ AbstractDs. In addition, the data member IdComponent::id was
+ moved into subclasses: Attribute, DataSet, DataSpace, DataType,
+ H5File, Group, and PropList. (BMR - 2008/05/20)
+ - IdComponent::dereference was incorrect and replaced as described
+ in "New Features" section.
+ (BMR - 2008/10/29)
+

+
+Known Problems
+==============
+* For Red Storm, a Cray XT3 system, the tools/h5ls/testh5ls.sh and
+ tools/h5copy/testh5copy.sh will fail some of its sub-tests. These sub-tests
+ are expected to fail and should exit with a non-zero code but the yod
+ command does not propagate the exit code of the executables. Yod always
+ returns 0 if it can launch the executable. The test suite shell expects
+ a non-zero for this particular test, therefore it concludes the test has
+ failed when it receives 0 from yod. Skip all the "failing" test for now
+ by changing them as following.
+
+ ======== Original tools/h5ls/testh5ls.sh =========
+ TOOLTEST tgroup-1.ls 1 -w80 -r -g tgroup.h5
+ ======== Change to ===============================
+ echo SKIP TOOLTEST tgroup-1.ls 1 -w80 -r -g tgroup.h5

+ echo SKIP TOOLTEST_FAIL -i $TESTFILE -o $FILEOUT -vp -s /grp_nested -d /G/H/grp_nested
+ echo SKIP H5LSTEST $FILEOUT
+ ==================================================
+ AKC - 2008/11/10
+
+* For Red Storm, a Cray XT3 system, the yod command sometimes gives the
+ message, "yod allocation delayed for node recovery". This interferes with
+ test suites that do not expect seeing this message. See the section of "Red
+ Storm" in file INSTALL_parallel for a way to deal with this problem.
+ AKC - 2008/05/28
+
+* We have discovered two problems when running collective IO parallel HDF5
+ tests with chunking storage on the ChaMPIon MPI compiler on tungsten, a
+ Linux cluster at NCSA.
+
+ Under some complex selection cases:
+ 1) MPI_Get_element returns the wrong value.
+ 2) MPI_Type_struct also generates the wrong derived datatype and corrupt
+ data may be generated.
+ These issues arise only when turning on collective IO with chunking storage
+ with some complex selections. We have not found these problems on other
+ MPI-IO compilers. If you encounter these problems, you may use independent
+ IO instead.
+
+ To avoid this behavior, change the following line in your code
+ H5Pset_dxpl_mpio(xfer_plist, H5FD_MPIO_COLLECTIVE);
+ to
+ H5Pset_dxpl_mpio(xfer_plist, H5FD_MPIO_INDEPENDENT);
+
+ KY - 2007/08/24
+
+* On Intel 64 Linux cluster (RH 4, Linux 2.6.9) with Intel 10.0 compilers,
+ use -mp -O1 compilation flags to build the libraries. A higher level of
+ optimization causes failures in several HDF5 library tests.
+
+* For LLNL, uP: both serial and parallel tests pass.
+ Zeus: Serial tests pass but parallel tests fail with a known problem in MPI.
+ ubgl: Serial tests pass but parallel tests fail.
+
+* On mpich 1.2.5 and 1.2.6, if more than two processes contribute no IO and
+ the application asks to do collective IO, we have found that when using 4
+ processors, a simple collective write will sometimes be hung. This can be
+ verified with t_mpi test under testpar.
+
+* On IRIX6.5, when the C compiler version is greater than 7.4, complicated
+ MPI derived datatype code will work. However, the user should increase
+ the value of the MPI_TYPE_MAX environment variable to some appropriate value
+ to use collective irregular selection code. For example, the current
+ parallel HDF5 test needs to raise MPI_TYPE_MAX to 200,000 to pass the test.
+
+* A dataset created or rewritten with a v1.6.3 library or after cannot be read
+ with the v1.6.2 library or before when the Fletcher32 EDC filter is enabled.
+ There was a bug in the calculation of the Fletcher32 checksum in the
+ library before v1.6.3; the checksum value was not consistent between big-
+ endian and little-endian systems. This bug was fixed in Release 1.6.3.
+ However, after fixing the bug, the checksum value was no longer the same as
+ before on little-endian system. Library releases after 1.6.4 can still read
+ datasets created or rewritten with an HDF5 library of v1.6.2 or before.
+ SLU - 2005/6/30
+
+* 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",
+ but HDF5 does not use sockets. This failure is due to problems with the
+ poe command trying to set up the debug socket. To resolve this problem,
+ check to see whether there are many old /tmp/s.pedb.* files staying around.
+ These are sockets used by the poe command and left behind due to failed
+ commands. First, ask your system administrator to clean them out.
+ Lastly, request IBM to provide a means to run poe without the debug socket.
+
+* 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 platforms for serial mode. The parallel mode works fine with
+ this option.
+
+ It is suggested that you do not use this option on these platforms
+ during configuration.
+
+* There is also a configure error on Altix machines that incorrectly reports
+ when a version of Szip without an encoder is being used.
+
+* Information about building with PGI and Intel compilers is available in
+ the INSTALL file sections 4.7 and 4.8.

Support for New Platforms, Languages, and Compilers
===================================================
- - Intel 10.1 is supported on Mac OS X 10.5.4.
- Note:
- When Fortran is enabled, configure automatically
- disables the build of shared libraries (i.e., only
- static C and C++ HDF5 libraries will be built
- along with the static HDF5 Fortran library).
- Intel 10.1 C and C++ compilers require
- "-no-multibyte-chars" compilation flag due to the known
- bug in the compilers.

+Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.8.2
==========================
Configuration
-------------
- - Fixed error with 'make check install' failing due to h5dump
- needing other tools built first. (MAM - 2008/10/15).
- - When using shared szip, it is no longer necessary to specify
- the path to the shared szip libraries in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
- (MAM - 2008/10/15).
- - The file libhdf5_fortran.settings is not installed since its content
- is included in libhdf5.settings now. (AKC - 2008/10/21)
- - "make DESTDIR=xxx install" failed to install some tools and files
- (e.g., h5cc and fortran modules). Fixed. (AKC - 2008/10/8).
Library
-------
- - H5Ovisit and H5Ovisit_by_name will now properly terminate when the
- callback function returns a positive value on the starting object.
- (NAF - 2008/11/03)
- - Fixed an error where a null message could be created that was larger
- than could be written to the file. (NAF - 2008/10/23)
- - Corrected error with family/split/multi VFD not updating driver info
- when "latest" version of the file format used. (QAK - 2008/10/14)
- - Corrected alignment+threshold errors to work correctly when metadata
- aggregation is enabled. (QAK - 2008/10/06)
- - Changed H5Fget_obj_count and H5Fget_obj_ids to ignore objects
- registered by the library for internal library use.
- (NAF - 2008/10/06)
- - Fixed potential memory leak during compound conversion.
- (NAF - 2008/10/06)
- - Changed the return value of H5Fget_obj_count from INT to SSIZE_T.
- Also changed the return value of H5Fget_obj_ids from HERR_T to
- SSIZE_T and the type of the parameter MAX_OBJS from INT to SIZE_T.
- (SLU - 2008/09/26)
- - Fixed an issue that could cause data to be improperly overwritten
- during compound type conversion. (NAF - 2008/09/19)
- - Fixed pointer alignment violations that could occur during vlen
- conversion. (NAF - 2008/09/16)
- - Fixed problem where library could cause a segmentation fault when
- an invalid location ID was given to H5Giterate(). (QAK - 2008/08/19)
- - Fixed improper shutdown when objects have reference count > 1. The
- library now tracks reference count due to the application separately
- from that due to internal library routines. (NAF - 2008/08/19)
- - Fixed assertion failure caused by incorrect array datatype version.
- (NAF - 2008/08/08)
- - Fixed an issue where mount point traversal would fail when using
- multiple handles for the child. (NAF - 2008/08/07)
- - Fixed an issue where mount points were inaccessible when using
- multiple file handles for the parent. The mount table is now in
- the shared file structure (the parent pointer is still in the
- top structure). (NAF - 2008/08/07)
- - Fixed assertion failure caused by incorrect array datatype version.
- (NAF - 2008/08/04)
- - Fixed issue where a group could have a file mounted on it twice.
- (QAK - 2008/07/15)
- - When an attribute was opened twice and data was written with
- one of the handles, the file didn't have the data. It happened
- because each handle had its own object structure, and the empty
- one overwrote the data with fill value. This is fixed by making
- some attribute information like the data be shared in the
- attribute structure. (SLU - 2008/07/07)
- - Fixed a Windows-specific issue in the ohdr test which was causing
- users in some timezones to get false errors. This a deficiency in
- the Windows mktime() function, and has been handled properly.
- (SJW - 2008/06/19)
Parallel Library
----------------
- - None
Tools
-----
- - h5dump now checks for uniqueness of committed datatypes.
- (NAF - 2008/10/15)
- - Fixed unnecessary indentation of committed datatypes in h5dump.
- (NAF - 2008/10/15)
- - Fixed bugs in h5stat: segmemtation fault when printing groups and
- print warning message when traversal of objects is unsuccessful.
- (see bug #1253) (VC- 2008/10/13)
- - Fixed bug in h5ls that prevented relative group listings (like
- "h5ls foo.h5/bar") from working correctly (QAK - 2008/06/03)
- - h5dump: when doing binary output (-b), the stdout printing of
- attributes was done incorrectly. Removed printing of attributes
- when doing binary output. (PVN - 2008/06/05)
F90 API
------
- - h5sselect_elements_f: Added additional operators H5S_SELECT_APPEND
- and H5S_SELECT_PREPEND (MSB - 2008/09/30)
- - h5sget_select_elem_pointlist: Fixed list of returned points by
- rearranging the point list correctly by accounting for C
- conventions. (MSB - 2008/09/30)
- - h5sget_select_hyper_blocklist_f: Fixed error in transposed dimension
- of arrays.(MSB - 2008/9/30)
- - h5sget_select_bounds_f: Swapped array bounds to account for C and
- Fortran reversed array notation (MSB - 2008/9/30)
- - Changed to initializing string to a blank character instead of a
- null type in tH5P.f90 to fix compiling error using AIX 5.3.0
- (MSB - 2008/7/29)
- - Fixed missing commas in H5test_kind.f90 detected by NAG compiler
- (MSB - 2008/7/29)
- - Fixed passing and array to a scalar in tH5A_1_8.f90 detected by
- NAG compiler (MSB - 2008/7/29)
- - Added the ability of the test programs to use the status of
- HDF5_NOCLEANUP to determine if the *.h5 files should be removed
- or not after the tests are completed (MSB - 2008/10/1)
- - In nh5tget_offset_c: (MSB 9/12/2008)
- If offset was equal to 0 it returned the error code of -1,
- this was changed to return an error code of -1 when the offset
- value is < 0.
- - Uses intrinsic Fortran function SIZEOF if available when detecting
- type of INTEGERs and REALs in H5test_kind.f90 (MSB - 2008/9/3)
- - Put the DOUBLE PRECISION interfaces in a separate module and
- added a USE statement for the module. The interfaces are
- included/excluded depending on the state of FORTRAN_DEFAULT_REAL
- is DBLE_F which detects if the default REAL is DOUBLE PRECISION.
- This allows the library to be compiled with -r8 Fortran flag
- without the user needing to edit the source code.
- (MSB - 200/8/27)
- - Enable building shared library for fortran by adding the flag -fPIC
- to the compile flags for versions of Intel Fortran compiler >=9
- (MSB - 2008/8/26)
C++ API
------
- - Fixed a design bug which allowed an Attribute object to create/modify
- attributes (bugzilla #1068). The API class hierarchy was revised
- to address the problem. Classes AbstractDS and Attribute are moved
- out of H5Object. Class Attribute now multiply inherits from
- IdComponent and AbstractDs and class DataSet from H5Object and
- AbstractDs. In addition, the data member IdComponent::id was
- moved into subclasses: Attribute, DataSet, DataSpace, DataType,
- H5File, Group, and PropList. (BMR - 2008/05/20)
- - IdComponent::dereference was incorrect and replaced as described
- in "New Features" section.
