| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Bug Fix Description: If an HDF5 file grows larger than its address space, it dies and is unable to write any data. This is more likely to happen since users are able to change the number of bytes used to store addresses in the file. Solution: HDF5 now throws an error instead of dying. In addition, it "reserves" address space for the local heap and for object headers (which do not allocate space immediately). This ensures that after the error occurs, there is enough address space left to flush the entire file to disk, so no data is lost. A more complete explanation is at /doc/html/TechNotes/ReservedFileSpace.html Platforms tested: sleipnir, copper (parallel), verbena, arabica, Windows (Visual Studio 7) Solution: Platforms tested: Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Maintenance Description: H5_SZIP_CHIP_OPTION_MASK was deleted from the list of the available parameters for the H5Pset_szip function. Solution: Updated Fortran source, tests and documentation to reflect this change. Platforms tested: arabica (too small for h5committest) Misc. update:
* [svn-r8797] Frank Baker2004-07-021-14/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: To more carefully describe the -- behavior of H5Pset_external -- appropriate usage of H5Pset_shuffle Description: H5Pset_external Add notes that first H5Pset_external call sets the dataset as EXTERNAL and identifies the first file in the series of external files that will hold the dataset; subsequent calls identify additional files; all external files must be declared before the dataset is created; and the library will create files that don't yet exist on the system at the time that H5Dwrite is called to write data to that file. H5Pset_shuffle Added notes regarding usage of H5Pset_shuffle in concert with a compression filter. And, as always, a few copy edits.
* [svn-r8796] Frank Baker2004-07-021-15/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: SZIP and more general filter updates Description: Added SZIP to the introductory paragraphs and as appropriate in the Fortran subroutine descriptions. Revised the introductory discussion, which had previously focussed on one compression filter, to allow for multiple filters of different types. Added list of filters currently distributed with HDF5 to intro. Also some copy edits and minor formatting. Platforms tested: Mozilla, Safari

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code optimization & bug fix Description: When dimension information is being stored in the storage layout message on disk, it is stored as 32-bit quantities, possibly truncating the dimension information, if a dimension is greater than 32-bits in size. Solution: Fix the storage layout message problem by revising file format to not store dimension information, since it is already available in the dataspace. Also revise the storage layout data structures to be more compartmentalized for the information for contiguous, chunked and compact storage. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel Solaris 2.7 (arabica) h5committest
* [svn-r8573] Frank Baker2004-05-251-16/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Bugfixes in H5Gset_comment, h5gget_comment_f, and h5gset_comment_f. (Follow-on to the H5Gget_comment bugfix of last week.) Description: Changed C parameter descriptions to indicate the following: 'loc_id' can be file, group, dataset, or named datatype. 'name' can be '.' if 'loc_id' fully describes the object. 'name' is ignored if 'loc_id' is a dataset or named datatype. Modified h5gget_comment_f and h5gset_comment_f notes accordingly. Copy edits in H5Gget/set_comment and h5gget/set_comment_f. Platforms tested: Safari

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: H5Gget_comment bugfix Description: H5Gget_comment: Changed "Description" text and "Parameters" descriptions to indicate the following: 'loc_id' can be file, group, dataset, or named datatype. 'name' can be '.' if 'loc_id' fully describes the object. 'name' is ignored if 'loc_id' is a dataset or nemed datatype. Also corrected the fact that the 'name' parameter description referred to setting the comment rather than retriving it. Platforms tested: Safari

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix/optimization Description: Address slowdown in MPI-I/O file metadata operations that was introduced mid-stream. We now _require_ a POSIX compliant parallel file system for the MPI-I/O file driver (as well as for the MPI-POSIX file driver). Also optimized file open operation when the file is being created by reducing the number of collective & syncronizing calls. Additionally, refactor the MPI routines into a common place, eliminating duplicated code. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel h5committest
