| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: When adding wrappers for H5Lexists, a new class, LinkAccPropList, was added to the C++ API, triggered complicated circular dependencies. Thus, some improvement was made to resolve the problems. - Replaced existing functions openXxxType with individual type constructors + Added individual XxxType constructors to replace the existing functions openXxxType because it's rather awkward to use these functions. + Moved openXxxType from H5Location back to CommonFG + Put back CommonFG as a baseclass of Group for openXxxType functions. + This replacement should improve usability and prevent the problem of circular dependencies. - Removed overloaded constructor that takes an Attribute when there is already one that takes H5Location because Attribute inherits from H5Location now.

Previously, these global constants were declared statically and the C++ library used a constant, called PredType::AtExit, to detect when all the global contants are destroyed then close the C library (H5close). This method relied on the order of the constants being created and destroyed and that PredType constants be the last to be destroyed. In September 2015, it was recognized that the order in which the global constants were created and destroyed was actually undefined, thus can be different between different compilers. This resulted in failure when compilers destroy PredType constants before others because when PredType::AtExit was destroyed, the C library was closed, so when the constants of other classes such as PropList or DataSpace were being deleted, the C library would not be available. Solution: The static approach is changed to dynamic. In order to avoid an impact on existing applications, the static global constants are changed to constant references to the dynamically allocated objects. A detailed explanation of the new method and a description of the changes are in a Design Notes at the end of the file H5PredType.cpp. New functions added to support the new methods are listed below. class H5Library: // Returns a singleton H5Library to initialize the global // constants, invoked in IdComponent default constructor static H5Library* getInstance(); // public // Registers cleanup and terminating functions with atexit(), // called in IdComponent default constructor static void initH5cpp(void); // public // Calls H5close to terminate the library, registered with // atexit(), as the last thing to be done. static void termH5cpp(void); // public class PredType: // Creates the constants static void makePredTypes(); // private // Calls makePredTypes to create the constants and returns // the dummy constant PREDTYPE_CONST; static PredType* getPredTypes(); // private class DataSpace: // Creates the constant static DataSpace* getConstant(); // private class PropList: // Creates the constant static PropList* getConstant(); // private class DSetCreatPropList: // Creates the constant static DSetCreatPropList* getConstant(); // private class DSetMemXferPropList: // Creates the constant static DSetMemXferPropList* getConstant(); // private class FileCreatPropList: // Creates the constant static FileCreatPropList* getConstant(); // private class FileAccPropList: // Creates the constant static FileAccPropList* getConstant(); // private This function is added to PredType, DataSpace, PropList, and the four subclasses of PropList: // Deletes the constant static void deleteConstants(); // public Platforms tested: Linux/32 2.6 (jam) Linux/64 (platypus) Darwin (osx1010test)

* [svn-r26655] Purpose: Fixed HDFFV-7947Binh-Minh Ribler2015-03-301-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: When copy constructor or constructor that takes an existing id is invoked, the C ref counter stays the same but there is an extra C++ object which later is destroyed and may cause the HDF5 id to be closed prematurely. The C++ library needs to increment the ref counter in these situations, so that the C library will not close the id when it is still being referenced. However, the incrementing of ref count left some objects opened at the end of the program, perhaps, due to compiler's optimization on cons/destructors. The constructor, that takes an existing id, needs to increment the counter but it seems that the matching destructor wasn't invoked. The workaround is to have a function for each class that has "id" that only sets the id and not increment the ref count for the library to use in these situations. These functions are "friend" and not public. The friend functions are: void f_Attribute_setId(Attribute *, hid_t) void f_DataSet_setId(DataSet *, hid_t) void f_DataSpace_setId(DataSpace *, hid_t) void f_DataType_setId(DataType *, hid_t) Platforms tested: Linux/64 (platypus) Linux/32 2.6 (jam gnu and Intel 15.0) SunOS 5.11 (emu)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: The following two constructors of classes: AbstractDs, IdComponent, H5Location, and H5Object are no longer appropriate after the data member "id" had been moved from IdComponent to the sub-classes. The copy constructors are noop and will be generated by the compilers if needed so they can be removed in 1.8.15 without effecting applications. The other constructors will be removed from 1.10 release, and then from 1.8 if their removal does not raise any problems in at least two 1.10 releases. <Classname>(const hid_t h5_id); <Classname>(const <Classname>& original); Deprecation warnings are added to each of these classes. The other classes are changed to call the default constructor instead of one of the constructors above. Platforms tested: Linux/64 (platypus) Linux/32 2.6 (jam) SunOS 5.11 (emu)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: Changed all subclasses' setId to protected 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.
