HL and C++ shared libraries should now be + working as intended, however. + (MAM - 2011/04/20) + +* While working on the 1.8.6 release of HDF5, a bug was discovered that can + occur when reading from a dataset in parallel shortly after it has been + written to collectively. The issue was exposed by a new test in the parallel + HDF5 test suite, but had existed before that. We believe the problem lies with + certain MPI implementations and/or file systems. + + We have provided a pure MPI test program, as well as a standalone HDF5 + program, that can be used to determine if this is an issue on your system. + They should be run across multiple nodes with a varying number of processes. + These programs can be found at: + http://www.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF5/examples/known_problems/ + (NAF - 2011/01/19) + +* All the VFL drivers aren't backward compatible. In H5FDpublic.h, the + structure H5FD_class_t changed in 1.8. There is new parameter added to + get_eoa and set_eoa callback functions. A new callback function + get_type_map was added in. The public function H5FDrealloc was taken + out in 1.8. The problem only happens when users define their own driver + for 1.6 and try to plug in 1.8 library. Because there's only one user + complaining about it, we (Elena, Quincey, and I) decided to leave it as + it is (see bug report #1279). Quincey will make a plan for 1.10. + (SLU - 2010/02/02) + +* The --enable-static-exec configure flag will only statically link libraries + if the static version of that library is present. If only the shared version + of a library exists (i.e., most system libraries on Solaris, AIX, and Mac, + for example, only have shared versions), the flag should still result in a + successful compilation, but note that the installed executables will not be + fully static. Thus, the only guarantee on these systems is that the + executable is statically linked with just the HDF5 library. + (MAM - 2009/11/04) + +* 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.
