* [svn-r14582] Purpose:Albert Cheng2008-02-141-628/+687
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fold all the updates made for v1.8.0 release to the main trunk. Versions are from r14548 to r14556. Changes are, Updated section 4 for v1.8 release. (May still check the v1.6 INSTALL to see if something can be adopted from there. But this is good for v1.8 release.) Moved the section 2. "Warnings about compilers" to Appendix A; renumbered section 3-7 to section 2-6 and fixed all section references. Updated Website names from ncsa.uiuc.edu to hdfgroup.org or hdfgroup.uiuc.edu. Updated section 1-3 and some of section 4. Quick editorial review. Convert tabs to spaces for consistent display and printing. Verify and fix links and references. Moved the following three paragraphs to the Appendix part since they have old information that are not relevant most recent machines or compilers. "Large (>2GB) versus small (<2GB) file capability", "Building and testing with Intel compilers" "Building and testing with PGI compilers"
* [svn-r14025] Maintenance: Changed version number to 1.8.0-beta3, put warning ↵hdf5-1_8_0-beta3Elena Pourmal2007-07-301-0/+3

| | | | | | | | | | doc update Description: Added HDF5TestExpress to release docs Platforms tested: none (doc change only)
* [svn-r12413] Purpose:James Laird2006-06-141-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Changed the semantics of --enable-stream-vfd and --enable-shared. Both are now disabled by default when parallel HDF5 is being built. Solution: Both shared and stream-vfd are disabled by default in parallel, but can be enabled explicitly if the user chooses. Before, shared was always enabled by default and stream-vfd was always disabled in parallel. Platforms tested: heping, mir (configuration change only)
* [svn-r12358] Purpose:Albert Cheng2006-05-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix. Description: The ${TR}, though avoid the error, is inconvenient. It is needed because configure.in use the char range in the style of 'a-z'. The other style of '[a-z]' is more commonly accepted by all tr but autoconf tends to strip away [], making the syntax rather clumsy. Solution: Learned from autoconf that it avoids the use of character range by just spell all the letters out. Changed our tr commands to use those variables defined by autoconf. Also removed the definition of ${TR} since it will cause inconsistancy when autoconf also use plain 'tr' in its generated code. The Makefile.in are changed because the elimination of ${TR} from configure triggered its removal from all Makefil.in. That is okay because ${TR} is not used at all in Makefile. Platforms tested: h5committested. (sol failed to connected). also tested in shanti using both /usr/ucb/tr and /bin/tr (the bad one before.) Misc. update: Updated both INSTALL and RELEASE files.

* [svn-r8201] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-02-131-32/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup/bug fix Description: Fix configuration files to allow 64-bit compilation of the library with a 64-bit version of zlib. Solution: Moved important compiler flags settings from CC macro to CFLAGS macro. Instead of setting CC (F9X, CXX) environment variable for compiling for 64-bit code, users should just set the CFLAGS (FFLAGS, CXXFLAGS) to -q64. Updated INSTALL file to reflect this change. Platforms tested: IBM p690 (copper) w/parallel, FORTRAN, C++, srcdir. Platforms specific - h5committest does not apply.

| | | | | | | | | | | document update Description: The information of setting SGI_ABI seemed to confuse some user. Removed it since it is extra information in addition to the preferred method of "CC=... ./configure". Experienced user in IRIX64 would know that option. Platforms tested: Eyeballed.
