* [svn-r11054] Purpose: Bug fix.Raymond Lu2005-07-081-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: There was a bug in the calculating code of the Fletcher32 checksum in the library before v1.6.3. The checksum value wasn't consistent between big-endian and little-endian systems. This bug was fixed in Release 1.6.3. However, after fixing the bug, the checksum value is no longer the same as before on little-endian system. Solution: Made the library compare both the correct checksum and incorrect checksum generated from v1.6.2 or before. This makes the library be backward compatible but not forward compatible. Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss. Misc. update: Documented the forward incompatibility problem in the Known Problem section in RELEASE.txt

| | | | | | | | | | | | Modification on .Net and Intel part Description: In batch mode, there should be no options to choose build Only HDF5 C or both C and C++ library with visual studio .net or intel compiler for the time being Solution: Platforms tested: Misc. update:
* [svn-r11022] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2005-07-051-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix & code cleanup Description: Don't unmount child files from a parent file if the parent file is being held open by an object. Also, moved the mounting routines into their own source file and the superblock routines into their own file also. Solution: Moved the code for unmounting child files down in the H5F_close routine and also add checks to the file and group mounting code to unmount child files when the last object holding open a file closes. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) h5committest
* [svn-r11013] Purpose:James Laird2005-07-011-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Fixed bugs that caused tests to be unable to find testhdf5.sh during daily tests, and another that broke sol and shanti. Solution: When tests are run, their path is ./$testname . When scripts are run, their path has no leading "./". Fixed. Sol and shanti don't recognize the -e option for test, but they do know -f. Fixed. Also modified release notes. Platforms tested: mir, shanti, heping
* [svn-r11009] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2005-07-011-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: When a series of files is mounted on one another and one of those files is not unmounted, the library gets confused at shutdown and goes into an infinite loop in the file interface. Solution: If there are still files left in the "closing" state when shutting down the file API, iterate over those file IDs and unmount any child files that we find mounted on those files. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) Too minor to require h5committest

* [svn-r10970] Purpose: New feature/bug #350 fixElena Pourmal2005-06-221-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: When compiler flag was used to set the size of Fortran integer to 8 bytes, library would fail. Solution: Cleaned up the code; added detection of Fortran INTEGER type size and appropriately defined int_f type for C-stubs routines. Platforms tested: Solaris 2.8 32 and 64-bit, AIX 5.1 64-bit parallel PGI Fortran with -i8 flag on heping Absoft Fortran with -i8 flag on heping g95 on mir (Fortran integer is 8 bytes by default that cannot be changed - compiler bug ;-) AIX Fortran with -qintsize=8 32 and 64-bit modes on copper Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Hyperslab selections that had a selection offset and were applied to a chunked dataset could get into an infinite loop or core dump if the same selection was used multiple times, with different selection offsets. Solution: "Normalize" the selection with the selection offset, generate the selections for the chunks overlapped and then "denormalize" the selection.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix/new feature Description: Setting "SEMI" or "STRONG" file close degrees causes problems when multiple file IDs exist for the same file on disk. Solution: Make the "SEMI" and "STRONG" settings only apply to the file ID that is being closed. Also, add an "H5F_OBJ_LOCAL" flag for the H5Fget_obj_count() & H5Fget_obj_ids() calls, so that applications can query about objects opened with a particular file ID instead of all the objects opened in the file on disk.

* [svn-r10795] Purpose: Bug fixRaymond Lu2005-05-241-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: See details from Bug #213. Family member file size wasn't saved anywhere in file. When family file is opened, the first member size determine the member size. Solution: This is the third step of checkin. h5repart has been modified. If h5repart is used to change the size of family member file, the new size(actual member size) is saved in the superblock. In the second step of checkin, multi driver is checked against the driver name saved in superblock. Wrong driver will result in a failure with an error message indicating multi driver should be used. This change includes split driver because it's a special case for multi driver. In the first step of checkin. Family member size and name template(unused at this stage) are saved in file superblock. When file is reopened,the size passed in thrin superblock. A different size will trigger a failure with an error message indicating the right size. Wrong driver to open family file will cause a failure, too. Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
