in the transition from HDF5 Release 1.6.8 to Release 1.6.9.
- <h3>Function with Changed Syntax</h3>
+ <h3>API Compatibility Macros</h3>
To facilitate writing applications that work with
both the HDF5 Release 1.6 series and the 1.8 series,
- the macro <code>H5Z_class1_t</code> has been defined and
- maps to <code>H5Z_class_t</code>.
- <code>H5Zreqister</code> can now be called with either
- syntax:
+ API compatibility macros analogous to those in 1.8
+ have been defined. These macros map directly to the
+ relevant functions and typedefs. Note that only the
+ 1.6-style macros are supported in this branch.

- The following function syntaxes have changed;
- the affected return values and parameter are noted as
- <font color=red><u>underscored red text</u></font>.
+ Any program that is written using these macros
+ exculsively will work with both the 1.6 and 1.8
+ series HDF5 Libraries. The program will work without
+ having to use any special flags or definitions, as
+ long as the 1.8 library was compiled with support
+ for deprecated symbols, which is the default.

--->
+ Note that for the 1.6 series, the numbered symbols are macros,
+ while in the 1.8 series, the non-numbered symbols are
+ macros. This was done because there is no need to
+ switch between different API versions in the 1.6 series.
+ <p>
+ <code>H5Z_class1_t</code> was introduced in Release 1.6.9 while all the
+ others were introduced in Release 1.6.8. For more information see
+ <cite><a href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/RM/APICompatMacros.html">API
+ Compatibility Macros</a></cite>, an HDF5 Release 1.8-series document.
