The `x' was removed from the name to remind us of that: H5MM_xmalloc() -> H5MM_malloc(), etc. H5MM_calloc() takes one argument like H5MM_malloc() instead of two like calloc() because we almost always called it with `1' for one of the arguments anyway. The only difference between the two functions is that H5MM_calloc() returns memory which is initialized to zero. ./src/H5Gent.c ./src/H5Gprivate.h Removed H5G_ent_calloc() since it wasn't used. ./src/H5Fistore.c Fixed a bug found by Albert. Thanks, Albert! This fix combined with the changes to memory allocation prevent the library from failing an assertion if the application uses an unreasonable size for chunks (like Alberts 10000x10000x4). ./src/H5MF.c ./src/H5MFprivate.h Changed H5MF_free() to H5MF_xfree() since calling it with an undefined address is allowed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ---------------------- ./INSTALL ./INSTALL_MAINT Updated installation instructions. ./html/Big.html [NEW] A guide to using big datasets on small machines. ./MANIFEST Added Big.html and INSTALL.ascired. ./html/Datasets.html ./html/Dataspaces.html ./html/Datatypes.html ./html/Files.html ./html/H5.api.html ./html/H5.intro.html ./html/H5.sample_code.html ./html/H5.user.html Updated documentation by changing lots of `size_t' arguments to `hsize_t'. Added line numbers to some examples. ./html/H5.intro.html Perhaps someone want's to volunteer to make this file human-readable?
* [svn-r198] Changes since 19980129Robb Matzke1998-01-291-6/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ---------------------- ./INSTALL ./INSTALL_MAINT ./README Updated installation instructions for hdf-5.0.0a. ./RELEASE Updated release notes. Needs more work. ./bin/release The tarballs include the name of the root directory like hdf-5.0.0a so it doesn't have to be explicitly created when the files are extracted.

Check for overflow in address encoding and decoding. ./src/H5Ffam.c ./src/H5Fprivate.c ./test/istore.c Implementation of file families so 32-bit machines can access 64-bit files. ./src/H5Oprivate.h Removed H5O_NO_ADDR constant. ./config/freebsd2.2.1 ./config/linux Added -DH5G_DEBUG and -DH5F_DEBUG to the list of debugging flags. ./html/H5.format.html Changed some <offset>-sized things to <length>-sized things. ./src/H5AC.c ./src/H5ACprivate.h ./src/H5B.c ./src/H5Bprivate.h ./src/H5C.c ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5F.c ./src/H5Fcore.c ./src/H5Fistore.c ./src/H5Flow.c ./src/H5Fprivate.h ./src/H5Fsec2.c ./src/H5Fstdio.c ./src/H5G.c ./src/H5Gent.c ./src/H5Gnode.c ./src/H5Gpkg.h ./src/H5Gprivate.h ./src/H5Gshad.c ./src/H5Gstab.c ./src/H5H.c ./src/H5Hprivate.h ./src/H5MF.c ./src/H5MFprivate.h ./src/H5O.c ./src/H5Ocont.c ./src/H5Oistore.c ./src/H5Oprivate.h ./src/H5Ostab.c ./src/H5Ostdst.c ./src/H5pivate.h ./src/debug.c ./test/istore.c ./test/theap.c ./test/tohdr.c ./test/tstab.c Lots of changes caused by generalizing addresses. The haddr_t is now a struct, so you can no longer perform arithmetic on it. But since it's small, simple, and often used, storage is allocated like with an integer. But we always pass them around by reference. That is, when using an address in another struct, allocate space: struct my_struct { char *name; haddr_t address; } x; But when passing it to a function, pass by reference: H5F_addr_print (stderr, &(x.address)); Addresses should be initialized with H5F_addr_undef (&(x.address)); Functions for operating on addresses are in H5Flow.c and begin with H5F_addr_... Functions never return haddr_t or haddr_t*; they always pass them through arguments instead. A function that returns an address through an argument does so with its last argument and it is marked with `/*out*/'. Calls to such functions also mark output-only arguments with `/*out*/' ./src/H5Fsplit.c (new) A two-member family where all meta data goes in the first member and all raw data goes in the second member. ./src/H5B.c ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5F.c ./src/H5Ffamily.c ./src/H5Fistore.c ./src/H5Flow.c ./src/H5Fprivate.h ./src/H5Fsec2.c ./src/H5Fstdio.c ./src/H5Gnode.c ./src/H5H.c ./src/H5MF.c ./src/H5MFprivate.h ./src/H5O.c Differentiate between meta data storage and raw data storage. Provide a mechanism so that the file driver can extend the file to allocate more memory. ./src/H5E.c ./src/H5Epublic.c Added the error H5E_TRUNCATED to be reported when the file is shorter than the length recorded in the boot block. ./src/H5F.c Added H5F_locate_signature() so we only do it in one place now. ./INSTALL ./INSTALL_MAINT Just a couple clarifications. ./html/ExternalFiles.html ./html/storage.html Documents how external files work. ./test/hyperslab.c ./test/istore.c Fixed printf's on 64-bit machines. ./test/istore.c Added ifdef's to test the split file driver.
