| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ---------------------- ./MANIFEST Alphabetized. `d' comes before `e' :-) ./bin/release Added the `-batch' option which causes the script to not ask questions and to automatically update the minor version number and set the patch level back to `a'. This is intended to be used for the daily snapshots: #! /bin/sh set -e cd ~/hdf5 make distclean make test bin/release -batch tar compress gzip bzip2 mv ./releases/* /repository ./src/H5Z.c Removed warnings about unused variables when the zlib.h header file is present but libz.a isn't. ./INSTALL ./configure.in ./doc/html/tracing.html Made API tracing the default (you still need to define the HDF5_TRACE environment variable to get results) and change the name from `--disable-tracing' to `--disable-trace' to make it consistent with the other switches. Changed `site config file' to `host config file' to match the documentation. ./doc/html/H5.user.html Added a reference to the `tracing.html' file.
