|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | * commit '2fb535ceff613dfd2a02b5b78ba7c3b5df95424b': Remove The HDF Group copyright header from 3rd party file. Remove java/COPYING file - no java directory in this branch. Update text in COPYING files in subdirectories to match changes to copyright notices in source files. Update Copyright notices in acsite.m4 and bin/yodconfigure that were overlooked by chkcopyright. Remove broken and unnecessary urls from comments in hl/fortran/src/H5IMcc.c and hl/src/H5IM.c. Commit bin/reconfigure changes to generated files. Change copyright headers to replace url referring to file to be removed and replace it with new url for COPYING file.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: - Used H5I_INVALID_HID instead of 0 to initialized member "id" in classes that represent HDF5 objects. For PropList, H5P_DEFAULT has to be used instead of H5I_INVALID_HID. - Added try/catch block to some dynamically allocating memory code and re-throw the bad_alloc exception with a message informing the location of the failure. (merged from trunk-r25640) Purpose: Fixed HDFFV-8852 Description: H5F_ACC_CREAT was included in the C++ API while the C library doesn't allow it yet. Possibly, in the future, but not now. In addition, the two flags H5F_ACC_RDONLY and H5F_ACC_RDWR were missing from the documentation, causing confusion that appending is not supported. Solution: - Removed H5F_ACC_CREAT from the function until the C library support it - Added H5F_ACC_RDONLY and H5F_ACC_RDWR to the comments to update the documentation (merged from trunk-r25632) Platforms tested: Linux/ppc64 (ostrich) Linux/32 2.6 (jam) SunOS 5.11 (emu)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description from trunk, r22836 In this bug, H5File doesn't have the ability to create attribute. The following changes will provide that functionality and several others that were also missing: - Added an abstract class H5Location in between IdComponent and H5Object. - New class structure of IdComponent, H5Location, H5Object, H5File IdComponent | H5Location / \ H5Object H5File - Wrappers in H5Object were moved to H5Location because the related C functions take either file, group, dataset, or named datatype ID. - Added wrapper for H5Rget_obj_type2 - Added tests for file attributes and H5Rget_obj_type2 wrapper Description from trunk, r22845 Fixed miscellaneous inconsistencies and typos, which also took care of the failure in Packet Table test on daily test today. Description from trunk, r24143 Fixed comments, documentation, and mis-matched DOXYGEN_SHOULD_SKIP_THIS pairs. Description from trunk, r24188 - The failure in daily test was caused by missing initialization of member "id" in a few constructors. This is now fixed. - Added two overloaded H5Location::setComment - Improved some error reporting in H5Location - Improved error reporting in tests Description from trunk, r24189 Changed header guards from single underscore to double underscore.

* [svn-r15401] Purpose: Fix bugBinh-Minh Ribler2008-07-241-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: Changed all subclasses' setId to p_setId and put back setId in IdComponent. p_setId is used in the library where the id provided by a C API passed on to user's application in the form of a C++ API object, which will be destroyed properly, and so p_setId does not call incRefCount. On the other hand, the public version setId is used by other applications, in which the id passed to setId needs to be closed properly by the application, so setId must call incRefCount for the new object to prevent prematurely closing of the id. Platforms tested: Linux 2.6 (kagiso) Still on going with these two platforms, but needed to check in before daily tests start. SunOS 5.10 (linew) FreeBSD (duty)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: The class hierarchy was revised to address the problem reported in bugzilla #1068. 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, data member IdComponent::id was moved into subclasses: Attribute, DataSet, DataSpace, DataType, H5File, Group, and PropList. Also fixed bugzilla 1045: revised Attribute::write and Attribute::read wrappers to handle memory allocation/deallocation properly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: Wrappers of H5Rcreate had incorrect prototypes. Solution: Added these overloaded functions for H5Rcreate wrapper to IdComponent: void reference(void* ref, const char* name, DataSpace& dataspace, H5R_type_t ref_type = H5R_DATASET_REGION) const; void reference(void* ref, const char* name) const; void reference(void* ref, const H5std_string& name) const; Added these overloaded functions for H5Rdereference: void dereference(IdComponent& obj, void* ref); DataSet(IdComponent& obj, void* ref); Group(IdComponent& obj, void* ref); DataType(IdComponent& obj, void* ref); The incorrect wrappers will be removed after announcing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Description: Changed to alias string instead of std, i.e. H5std_string instead of H5std, because the old way wasn't working when std didn't exist.

* [svn-r11755] Purpose: Code improvementBinh-Minh Ribler2005-12-031-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: There was a workaround for predefined types, in the C++ library, implemented when the C++ library was handling the reference counting of the object ids on its own. Currently, the C++ library is using the available APIs from the C library for that purpose, and there were bugs reported involving that part of the C++ library. So, I decided to remove the workaround completely. Also, improved the use of std members. Platforms tested: Linux 2.4 (heping) SunOS 5.8 64-bit (sol) Linux 2.4 w/PGI (colonelk)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: Added wrapper for H5Iget_type. Added try/catch to many APIs that call private functions so that more specific information can be provided at failure.

* [svn-r11060] Purpose: Fix bug (reported by user)Binh-Minh Ribler2005-07-101-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: The use of FileCreatPropList::DEFAULT sometimes caused failure in the reference counting area. This occurs to all the default property lists, which also include FileAccPropList::DEFAULT, DSetCreatPropList::DEFAULT, and DSetMemXferPropList::DEFAULT. H5P_DEFAULT was used to create these default prop lists and because its value is 0, the id of these prop lists are 0, which is rejected by the H5I functions during the reference counting. Solution: The main action to fix the above problem was to use H5P_FILE_CREATE H5P_FILE_ACCESS H5P_DATASET_CREATE H5P_DATASET_XFER to define the default property lists accordingly. Yet, when this fix was applied, some bug in reference counting was revealed. It appeared that some ids were not incremented but were passed in for decrementing. The following actions were then taken to fix and improve the current use of reference counting H5I functions. * added private func IdComponent::p_valid_id to verify that the id is a valid id and can be passed into an H5I function * used p_valid_id to validate an id before calling an H5I functions in the reference-counting member functions incRefCount, decRefCount, and getCounter * changed to use member function incRefCount, decRefCount, and getCounter instead of the C APIs H5Iinc_ref, H5Idec_ref, and H5Iget_ref throughout IdComponent. In addition, overloadings were added for incRefCount, decRefCount, and getCounter to take an id different than the id of the current instance; they can be convenient during debugging.

* [svn-r8269] Purpose:Binh-Minh Ribler2004-03-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Cleaning up warnings Description: Many exception constructors have warnings about reference to temporary location because of the parameter initialization, for example, "const string& var = 0." Solution: Changed "string&" parameters to pass by value for these constructors. Consequently, passing string by value also takes care of char pointers so the overloaded constructors for char pointers are then removed. Also, instead of setting Exception::detailMessage to null string, I set it to DEFAULT_MSG ("No detailed information provided") by default.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix and minor code enhancement Description: Missing methods to read/write C++ String for an attribute and a dataset. Solution: Added overloaded functions read and write to H5::Attribute and H5::DataSet. Also, added another constructor StrType so the need to separately set the length of the string type can be eliminated. It's minor but convenient.
