* [svn-r27945] Purpose: Fix HDFFV-9529Binh-Minh Ribler2015-10-041-182/+977
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: Merged from hdf5_CppAPI_Constants r27942: ------ Description: - Added H5dont_atexit() to getPredType and all the getConstant's to prevent the C library from terminating before the C++ library cleanup. - More cleanup and added more comments r27923: ------ - Updated more comments and moved some things around for consistency - Removed check for "new" failure, exceptions would be thrown r27922: ------ Description: Added function headers and more comments for clarity. r27917: ------ Description: The C++ library has several types of global constants from different classes, such as PropList, PredType, DataSpace, etc... 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-r22235] Purpose: Fixed bugs HDFFV-2761 & HDFFV-7852Binh-Minh Ribler2012-04-021-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: - Replaced PredType::NotAtexit() with PredType::AtExit(H5CPP_EXITED); and used PredType::AtExit as a flag to detect when all predefined types have been destroyed. Then, H5close will be called to terminate the library after its being re-initiated when the PredType destructors were activated. This change removed the memory leaks shown by the user's sample program. - Added H5CPP_EXITED for PredType::AtExit to use as a flag - Updated some inaccurate comments - Removed stream functions from FileAccPropList - Replaced H5_VMS with appropriate macro in H5IdComponent.cpp - Corrected many URLs (hdfgroup vs. ncsa) in comments - Replaced std::string with H5std_string in comments Platforms tested: Linux/32 2.6 (jam) Linux/64 2.6 (amani) SunOS 5.10 (linew)

* [svn-r12180] Purpose: MaintenanceBinh-Minh Ribler2006-03-301-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Description: Added alias H5_std so either the global or std namespace can be used, depending on H5_NO_STD. Platforms tested: Linux 2.4 (heping) SunOS 5.8 64-bit (sol) AIX 5.1 (copper)
* [svn-r11755] Purpose: Code improvementBinh-Minh Ribler2005-12-031-426/+148
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 and Solution: - Predefined type objects become outdated when the application calls H5close and then H5open to use the library again. Solution: + Reimplemented PredType using enum type to obtain up-to-date values for predefined types, i.e. H5T_xxx_yyy's, when they are used. + Added to PredType its own version of getId() to return the appropriate predefined type id according to the enum value. + Made IdComponent::getId() a virtual function - Since Albert already fixed the "multiply defined RcsId" problem, removed the now become unnessary "#undef RCSID" from H5Include.h - Added a check for func_name != NULL in one of the Exception constructors because seg. fault. might occur in some situations. - It is more convenient to make a copy of a datatype, dataspace, or property list by using assignment operator Solution: + Added assignment operator to DataType, DataSpace, and PropList so that they will invoke H5Tcopy, H5Scopy, and H5Pcopy, respectively, instead of just simply copying the data members as for other classes. So, now a type, space, or property list can be copied by either : mytype = original_type, or mytype.copy(original_type) Note that copy constructors are still just copying the data members. + Added an assignment operator to DataType that takes a predefined type. + Made IdComponent::operator= a virtual function Platforms tested: arabica (sparc-sun-solaris 2.7)
* [svn-r3602] Binh-Minh Ribler2001-03-101-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Usability enhancement Description: - Added more information about the failure to all the throw's, i.e, member function name and more detail about the failure, where appropriate. Also, added exception throws for private functions, such as p_close to provide more specific details. - Added two api functions: Exception::getFuncName() and Exception::getCFuncName() to provide the name of the member function where failure occurs. - Fixed some typos, one of which caused segn. fault in some situations (resetIdComponent was accidentally called twice in a couple of places :) Platforms: arabica (sparc-sun-solaris 2.7)
* [svn-r3199] Binh-Minh Ribler2000-12-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: bug fix Description: I found a couple of places where virtual destructors were missing and could cause small memory leaks. Also, some destructors were not virtual when they should be. Solution: - added virtual destructors, which also free dynamically allocated memory - added virtual to several destructors - also, fixed several typos Platforms tested: Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
* [svn-r3114] Purpose: FixBinh-Minh Ribler2000-12-121-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: Dec CC compiler doesn't support some new c++ features. Some typos caused compilation erros on Dec Alpha. Solution: - Added macro BOOL_NOTDEFINED to define bool type on Dec Alpha (gondolin) since its compiler doesn't support bool. - Added macro NO_STATIC_CAST to prevent the use of the new c++ feature static_cast since Dec CC compiler doesn't support. - Added const to parameters of some functions to match the functions' declaration and definition. Typos errors and Dec CC complained. Platform: Solaris (arabica). Also tried to build on Dec Alpha but still not linked due to some missing compiler flags; its compilation went fine though.
* [svn-r3080] Binh-Minh Ribler2000-12-071-0/+192
Purpose: Support portability Description: I forgot that source file extension .C will not work on Windows. Solution: Changed all source file from *.C to *.cpp for portability. Platforms tested: arabica (sparc-sun-solaris 2.7)
