See the reference manual for a + full description of these new routines. QAK - 2003/12/11 + + Parallel Library: + ----------------- + - The parallel tests in testpar/ now provides different levels of + verbosity via the '-v' option. The default is less verbose + than before. AKC - 2004/01/23 + - Added parallel test, test_mpio_1wMr, which tests if the + underlaying parallel I/O system is conforming to the POSIX + write/read requirement. This version includes options of using + atomicity and file-sync. AKC - 2003/11/27 + + Tools: + ------ + - Added option -showconfig to compiler tools (h5cc,h5fc,h5c++). + AKC - 2004/01/08 + - Install the "h5cc" and "h5fc" tools as "h5pcc" and "h5pfc" + respectively if library is built in parallel mode. AKC - 2004/01/07 + - Added metadata benchmark (perform/perf_meta). SLU - 2003/10/03 + + C++ API: + -------- + + +Support for new platforms, languages and compilers. +======================================= + - HDF5 Fortran APIs are supported on MAC OSX with IBM XL Fortran compiler + version 8.1 Beta + Use --disbale-shared --enable-static flags with configure when + building HDF5 Fortran Library on MAC OSX. + - C and C++ Libraries are available for Linux64 RH8 + - C, C++ and Fortran sequential Libraries, and C and Fortran parallel + Libraries are available for Altix (Linux ia64) + +Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.6.1 release +================================== + + Library + ------- + - Fixed problem with H5Tget_native_type() not handling opaque fields + correctly. QAK - 2004/01/31 + - Fixed several errors in B-tree deletion code which could cause a + B-tree (used with groups and chunked datasets) to become corrupt + with the right sequence of deleted objects. QAK - 2004/01/19 + - Fixed small internal memory leaks of fill-value information. + QAK - 2004/01/13 + - Fixed bug that caused variable-length datatypes (strings or sequences) + used for datasets in files with objects that were unlinked to + fail to be read/written to a file. QAK - 2004/01/13 + - Detect situation where szip 'pixels per block' is larger than the + fastest changing dimension of a dataset's chunk size and disallow + this (due to limits in szip library). QAK - 2003/12/31 + - Fixed bug with flattened hyperslab selections that would generate + incorrect hyperslab information with certain high-dimensionality + combinations of start/stride/count/block information. + QAK - 2003/12/31 + - Fixed bug with variable-length datatypes used in compound datatypes. + SLU - 2003/12/29 + - Fixed bug in parallel I/O routines that would cause reads from + "short datasets" (datasets which were only partially written out) + to return invalid data. QAK & AKC - 2003/12/19 + - Fixed bug where scalar dataspaces for attributes were reporting as + simple dataspaces. QAK - 2003/12/13 + - Fixed problem with selection offsets of hyperslab selections in + chunked datasets causing the library to go into an infinite loop. + QAK - 2003/12/13 + - Fixed H5Giterate to avoid re-using index parameter after iteration + callback has been called (allows iteration callback to modify the + index parameter itself). QAK - 2003/12/06 + - Fixed various floating-point conversion problems, including a + change which could corrupt data when converting from double->float. + QAK - 2003/11/24 + - Changed "single process" metadata writing in library to collective + I/O by all processes, in order to guarantee correct data being + written with MPI-I/O. QAK - 2003/11/20 + - Fixed problems with fill values and variable-length types and also + I/O on VL values that were set to NULL. QAK - 2003/11/08 + - Fixed problems with MPI datatypes that caused ASCI Q machine to + hang. QAK - 2003/10/28 + - Removed HDF5_MPI_PREFER_DERIVED_TYPES environment variable support, + since it had no benefit. QAK - 2003/10/28 + - Single hyperslab selections (which were set with only one call to + H5Sselect_hyperslab) that had dimensions that could be "flattened" + but were interspersed with dimensions that could not be flattened + were not correctly handled, causing core dumps. QAK - 2003/10/25 + - Avoid metadata cache from preempting current dataset object header + when looking up information about the named datatype that the + dataset uses. QAK - 2003/10/20 + + Configuration + ------------- + - Parallel I/O with the MPI-I/O driver will no longer work if the + filesystem is not POSIX compliant. The "HDF5_MPI_1_METAWRITE" + environment variable has been removed. QAK - 2004/01/30 + + Performance + ------------- + - More optimizations to inner loops of datatype conversions for + integers and floats which give a 10-50% speedup. QAK - 2003/11/07 + - Hoisted invariant 'if/else's out of inner datatype conversion loop for + integer and floating-point values, giving about a 20% speedup. + QAK - 2003/10/20 + + Tools + ----- + - Fixed h5redeploy which sometimes complain too many argument for the + test command.

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 J90 and 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 and 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://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/pub/outgoing/hdf5/hdf5-1.6.2/F90_source_for_Crays + +* On some platforms that use Intel 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) + +* On IA32 and IA64 systems, if you use a compiler other than GCC (such as + Intel's ecc or icc compilers), you will need to modify the generated + "libtool" program after configuration is finished. On or around line 104 of + the libtool file, there are lines which look like: + + # How to pass a linker flag through the compiler. + wl="" + + change these lines to this: + + # How to pass a linker flag through the compiler. + wl="-Wl," + + UPDATE: This is now done automatically by the configure script. However, if + you still experience a problem, you may want to check this line in the + libtool file and make sure that it has the correct value. + +* 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 + occassionaly as 1**-308. This has been reported to the system staff. + All other tests have passed. + +* On AIX 5.1 when 64-bit parallel C Library is built with zlib configured in, + compilation fails for H5Zdeflate.c. To bypass the problem, remove "const" + definition in front of H5Z_DEFLATE in H5Zpkg.h line 29. + +%%%%1.6.1%%%% Release Information for hdf5-1.6.1 (16/October/03) 15.
