* [svn-r11084] Frank Baker2005-07-193-2630/+0
| | | | | | | | | Description: All HDF5 user documentation has been moved to a separate hdf5doc/ repository, managed under Subversion. With this 'cvs commit', all files are stripped from hdf5/doc/. THIS CHANGE IS APPLIED ONLY TO THE HDF5 DEVELOPMENT BRANCH, post Release 1.6.x; it is not applied to the release branches.
* [svn-r11008] Purpose:James Laird2005-06-301-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Feature: tests now use parallel make and only run once Description: When make is invoked in parallel (using the -j option), several tests will now be run simultaneously. This should speed up testing on a number of systems. When a test passes, it creates a foo.chkexe or foo.chksh file, which prevents the test from running again unless the test or library changes. Solution: Most of the changes live in config/conclude.am. Added *.chkexe and *.chksh files to the list of files to be cleaned at "make mostlyclean" time. Parallel tests still run one at a time, but use the same make instructions as serial tests. Platforms tested: mir, eirene, sleipnir, pommier, copper, modi4 (some errors occurred, probably due to the test being run before updating hdf5. Will re-run tests after checkin.)

| | | | | | | | | | | Added check-s and check-p targets. Description: Added check-s and check-p targets to 1.7 branch to match changes to 1.6 branch. Now parallel and serial tests can be run separately. Platforms tested: mir, modi4, copper
* [svn-r10570] Purpose: MaintenanceElena Pourmal2005-04-071-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Description: Removed support for SRB driver Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files. Platforms tested: heping and shanti Misc. update: ran bin/chkmanifest on heping
* [svn-r10534] Purpose:James Laird2005-04-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Configuration feature Description: Different Fortran compilers mangle function names in different ways (upper case, lower case, adding underscores). To link between Fortran and C functions, we need to know what a given function's name is under a given compiler. Solution: Use autoconf's FC_WRAPPERS check to determine the Fortran naming scheme and define the FC_FUNC_ macro to name our functions (in H5f90proto.h). Removed references to our old FNAME macro, as well as flags that indicated whether function names were upper or lower case. Platforms tested: mir, pommier, modi4, copper, more
* [svn-r10517] Purpose:James Laird2005-03-311-5/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: On some machines, $RUNSERIAL variable needs to be used to run tests. Set $RUNTESTS (which is used for non-parallel tests) to be $RUNSERIAL in configure.am. Also, since I was updating all Makefiles.in anyway, I updated commence.am to point to autotools installs in AFS instead of those on heping. Platforms tested: mir, sleipnir, modi4, copper
* [svn-r10511] James Laird2005-03-301-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: "Bug fix" Description: Hardcoded Makefiles to use /bin/sh instead of letting configure detect shell automatically. This is what v1.6 does, and avoids problems on janus. Platforms tested: sleipnir, copper, modi4, mir
* [svn-r10475] Purpose:James Laird2005-03-291-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Feature - conditional compilation Description: SRB file driver and tests are now compiled only when SRB is enabled (using --with-srb during configure). Solution: Added an automake conditional in configure.in, altered Makefiles.am in src and test directories to depend on that conditional. This should make a nice example for posterity to add conditionally compiled sources. Platforms tested: heping (only configure change)
* [svn-r10459] James Laird2005-03-281-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Added C++ wrapper for Packet Table API. Description: Added macro for high-level C++ library (LIBH5CPP_HL), which changes every Makefile.in. Added directories for high-level C++ library (though currently only Packet Table API is supported). Added both C++ source and tests. Platforms tested: sleipnir, mir, modi4 Misc. update:
* [svn-r10158] Purpose:James Laird2005-03-071-83/+192
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Automake version upgrade Description: Upgraded automake version from 1.6.2 to 1.9.5. Changed bin/reconfigure script to use automake 1.9.5. Changed configure.in and Makefiles to use new FCFLAGS and FC variables instead of FFLAGS and F9X. Automake and configure should now do the lion's share of the work supporting Fortran 9X; macros in acsite.m4 are now mostly unused (will be cleaned later). Altered how configure handles pmake; now root-level Makefile.in is processed by bin/reconfigure to have a .MAKEFLAGS target, since automake no longer allows us to define unused variables. Configure now always checks for C++ compiler even if it is not used, since automake thinks this is the Right Thing To Do and will break otherwise. Platforms tested: Sol, copper, heping, mir, sleipnir, eirene, pommier, kelgia, modi4.

| | | | | | | | | | Libtool upgrade Description: HDF5 was using libtool 1.4.2. Upgraded to libtool 1.5.14. Platforms tested: verbena, heping, pommier, copper, modi4, arabica
* [svn-r10023] Purpose:Xiaowen Wu2005-02-171-0/+1

* [svn-r10016] James Laird2005-02-161-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Bug fix Description: modi4 dies during build with strange errors. The root cause of these is a two-year-old hack in HDF5's libtool script that only takes effect on IRIX. Solution: Edited the libtool hack (by editing ltmain.sh) to correct a bug in the hack. Also made sure that compiler-specific DEFAULT_LIBS are used when linking. Platforms tested: sleipnir, copper, modi4, sol
* [svn-r9988] Purpose:James Laird2005-02-111-10/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: pmake (on modi4, for instance) complains about undefined variables if it is run without the -V flag, which turns those errors to warnings. Solution: Added test to configure.in to see if $MAKE will allow Makefiles with undefined variables. If not, sets -V flag in AM_MAKEFLAGS. Ensured that all custom make targets use AM_MAKEFLAGS. Also defined all variables that caused errors in top-level Makefile.am. This means that pmake can be used to build hdf5 *from the top level only*. To run make from a subdirectory, still need to use -V flag (or use make or gmake). Platforms tested: modi4, heping, copper, sleipnir
* [svn-r9930] James Laird2005-02-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Bug fix Description: Parallel builds were breaking in tools/lib Solution: talign didn't realize it depended on libh5tools.la because its dependencies listed the full path (../../tools/lib/libh5tools.la). Changed this, and made similar changes in a couple of other directories. This checkin should also add the --foreign flag to every Makefile.in Platforms tested: sleipnir (minor change)
* [svn-r9928] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2005-02-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | New feature Description: Add basic code for new B-tree implementation. They don't do much yet, aren't hooked up to anything yet and the format may change, but I'd like to start getting them into the daily tests. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/parallel Too minor to require h5committest
* [svn-r9920] Purpose:James Laird2005-02-021-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Found the permanant fix to automake/CVS dependency problem Solution: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE macro to configure.in. Now automake will never try to regenerate Makefiles, Makefiles.in, configure, H5config.h, etc. when they are out of date, nor will it print any warnings. Developers should be very very careful to use reconfigure script, and can add --enable-maintainer-mode flag to configure on heping to regenerate these files correctly. Platforms tested: heping sleipnir copper
* [svn-r9915] Purpose:James Laird2005-02-021-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Configuration files' timestamps were incorrect. Solution: Update Makefiles.in. Also added correct paths to autotools on heping, so heping build should be able to re-generate configuration files even if they are still broken. Platforms tested: sleipnir
* [svn-r9912] Purpose:James Laird2005-02-011-87/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Dependencies between configure files (aclocal, configure.in, configure, Makefiles.am and .in) are still causing Makefiles to try to run autotools during build. Solution: Committed all Makefiles.in to update their timestamps. As a temporary measure, forcibly prevented automake from running autotools during build by redefining the variables it uses. Platforms tested: sleipnir (No changes to Makefile content)
* [svn-r9907] Purpose:James Laird2005-02-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Different compilers use different flags to include Fortran module files Solution: Changed boilerplate to use configure variable rather than hardcoded -M flag. Platforms tested: sleipnir, sol, copper
* [svn-r9902] Purpose:James Laird2005-02-013-16/+449
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Configuration feature Description: HDF5 now uses automake to generate Makefiles Solution: Makefile.in files are now generated from Makefile.am files. To reconfigure (after chaning a Makefile.am or configure.in): /bin/sh bin/reconfigure.sh Platforms tested: Many
* [svn-r9727] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-12-291-20/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-) Description: Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections. However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch, but not the other. I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label "before_signed_unsigned_changes".
