* [svn-r20475] Purpose:Mike McGreevy2011-04-111-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Revise shared Fortran library disabling scenarios in configure - Improve configure output summary Description: Shared Fortran libraries are not supported on Mac, but were being disabled by configure in a way that also forced the C libraries to be static-only. This has been fixed, so now only shared Fortran is disabled while shared C can remain. This prompted two additional changes: 1. While working on the check that addresses whether or not shared Fortran libraries are allowed, removed old and no longer needed check(s) that disable shared Fortran libraries with HP, Intel 8, PGI, and Absoft compilers. (Essentially, Mac is the only situation in which Fortran shared are disabled by configure.) 2. Having two different states of libraries (i.e. shared C library with static-only Fortran library) was not apparent in the configure summary, which labeled all libraries as either shared and/or static. I've added lines to both the C++ and Fortran output sections to list shared/static-ness of these libraries specifically. Additionally, I've made sure that the new --enable-unsupported configure option correctly overrides configure if it tries to disable a shared library. Tested: jam, fred, & h5committest

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixed Bug 2184 - GMQS: h5diff - incorrect calculation code for --use-system-epsilon option Description: Merged from HDF5 1.8 branch r20369. Fixed h5diff for --use-system-epsilon option: the calculation changed from ( |a - b| / b ) to ( |a - b| ). This was decided for better performance and was corrected only in HDF5 trunk, so 1.8 got updated. Also comments for equal_XXX() function were updated correctly. Also help page and RM got updated correctly. Also add test cases for testing the differences w/wo the option. Tested: jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug 2182 - h5ls and h5dump: update to use --enable-error-stack among tools, also update related descriptions Description: Decided to use --enable-error-stack long option name only to display error stack messages from HDF5 lib among tools. Updated to unify option name to '--enable-error-stack' for printing HDF5 error stack messages for HDF5 tools. h5ls and h5dump for now. For h5ls, this replaces "-e/--errors" option, which is deprecated. For h5dump, remove -E from help page and RM , which was added by mistake before release1.8.7. Help page and RM got updated. Updated test case. Tested: jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixed CHICAGO: Bug 2121 - h5diff - incorrect and lack of output for the different set of attributes (different number and names) Description: Previously h5diff compared attributes correctly only when two objects have the same number of attributes and attribute names are identical. This fix covers all other cases. Also didn't display useful information about attribute difference. This fixes both issues. Tested: jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)

| | | | | | | | | | Description: When using the scale-offset filter with floating point data or fill values, big endian machines would save some metadata in the wrong byte order. This caused such datasets to yield incorrect data when read on little endian machines. Fixed the scale-offset filter to always save this metadata in the right byte order (i.e. little endian).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug 2089 - GMQS: h5diff segfault on a compound dataset with fixed length + vlen string type order Description: This is fix for the segfault when h5diff compares a compound dataset with combination of fixed length string types and vlen string types in certain orders. Optimized vlariable length string handling codes. The fix is referred from h5dump handling vlen strings. For testing, several compound datasets were added with various combinations. Previous failed cases: - Vlen string, Fixed length string, Vlen string, Fixed length string - Fixed length string, Fixed length string, Vlen string, Vlen string - Fixed length string, Vlen string, Fixed length string, Vlen string Tested: jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add "--enable-unsupported" configure flag. Description The "--enable-unsupported" configure flag allows a user to prevent configure from failing due to the use of incompatible options, such as c++ with parallel. Specifying --enable-unsupported will bypass all of configure's checks for incompatible and unsupported combinations of flags. There are no guarantees that the library will be configured in any sort of working condition, but that's the risk of using the --enable-unsupported flag. I've changed all default error messages related to unsupported option combinations to indicate that using --enable-unsupported will allow configure to complete without error. Tested: by hand on jam, tested all unsupported configure option combinations with and without the new flag, making sure the flag allows configure to finish without error. (h5committest wouldn't do any good here; it won't test the new option, and since we're enabling unsupported combinations, failures are likely to occur in build or tests with --enable-unsupported turned on anyways. That's why they're unsupported!)
* [svn-r19798] Purpose:Mike McGreevy2010-11-171-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add additional error checking to catch erroneous user input. Description: Attempting to retrieve a links's name by index in the case where the link is external and the file that the object is located in doesn't exist was causing a segmentation fault (in production) and an assertion failure (in debug). The segfault wasn't occuring until the metadata accumulator attempted a write, so I've added error checking higher in the pipeline in H5O_protect (where there was previously just an assert) to catch this. I've also added additional asserts in the H5F layer where there were none. Additionally, I added another case to the links.c test to test that this fails gracefully instead of segfaulting or asserting out. Tested: h5committest and gandalf (mac os x)
* [svn-r19757] Purpose:Jonathan Kim2010-11-111-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Improve h5diff performance. Description: The following changes for improving h5diff performance: 1) use HDmemcmp() before comparing each elements (memcmp() is very fast at both linew and jam) 2) replace the expensive H5Tequals() calls 3) retrieve datatype information at dataset level not each element level for compound datasets Tested: jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)

| | | | | | | | | | | unresolved issues - r19441 and 19467. Bug 1707 is that H5Eset_auto causes a seg fault when an application uses -DH5_USE_16_API with the 1.8 library to compile. I created a branch off the trunk called set_auto to continue working on the problem. Tested on jam - backing out, simple.
* [svn-r19461] Purpose: Fix bug 1864Neil Fortner2010-09-211-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | Description: Library versions 1.6.3 and earlier contain a bug which causes them to be unable to perform certain operations on a group if that group's symbol table information is not cached in the parent group's symbol table. Versions 1.8.0 to 1.8.5 did not cache this information. Modified library to cache this information. Tested: jam, amani, heiwa (h5committest)
* [svn-r19457] Bug fix for 1707 - H5Eset_auto causes a seg fault when an ↵Raymond Lu2010-09-211-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | application uses -DH5_USE_16_API with the 1.8 library to compile. The cause is from the mismatch of H5Eprint1 and H5Eprint2 set through H5Eset_auto. I changed the union in the structure H5E_auto_t. Another change is to make H5Eget_auto fail if H5Eset_auto is called to set the printing function. I'll write a document for it. Tested on heiwa, jam, and amani. The property change in configure.in, config, and Makefile.am came from the merge of the 1.8 library change.
* [svn-r19406] Purpose:Jonathan Kim2010-09-161-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | Add --exclude-path option Description: Specified path to an object will be excluded from comparing the two files or two groups. If group is specified all the member objects will be excluded. Related to "1890: h5diff excluding object for file comparison via command line" Tested: jam, amani and heiwa
* [svn-r19400] Purpose:Jonathan Kim2010-09-161-0/+3

* [svn-r19386] Purpose: Fix assertion failure caused by fractal heap header ↵Neil Fortner2010-09-151-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | file pointer Description: The fractal heap header structure keeps a pointer to the file associated with it. However, it is possible for that file pointer to be closed while the header is still in cache (through the shared file pointer). Previously, the header's file pointer was not updated and subsequently pointed to an invalid file structure. Modified fractal heap code to update the file pointer every time the header is accessed. Tested: jam, linew, amani (h5committest)

* [svn-r19367] Purpose:Mike McGreevy2010-09-101-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add windows threads support to HDF5. Description: Added calls to the windows threads library to the H5TS layer, and wrapped most calls to either pthreads or windows threads library with portable H5TS-style defines. Modified tests to use portable function definitions as well. This can be configured via CMake with the HDF5_ENABLE_THREADSAFE option, and should work on windows vista and later operating systems. Tested: h5committest, plus threadsafe with pthreads on jam and amani, and tested on a Windows Vista VM with threadsafe using windows threads.
