framework. The list of changes include:
* Modify compiler.mk so that "c" is always prepended to USE_LANGUAGES,
so we no longer need to say it in package Makefiles. Packages
should now append to USE_LANGUAGES instead of setting it.
* Create mk/compiler/f2c.mk which implements another pseudo-compiler
"f2c" that may be used with any C compiler backend, e.g.
PKGSRC_COMPILER= f2c ccache gcc
* Teach the various "real" compiler files, e.g., sunpro.mk, mipspro.mk,
etc., to use f2c if the native Fortran compiler isn't present.
Packages that use Fortran should now simply include the line:
USE_LANGUAGES+= fortran
in the package Makefile.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
New Features and Changes:
========================
o The following Vdata routines were added:
VSsetblocksize/vsfsetblsz -- sets the block size of the
linked-block element.
VSsetnumblocks/vsfsetnmbl -- sets the number of blocks for
a linked-block element.
VSgetblockinfo/vsfgetblinfo -- retrieves the block size and the number
of blocks of a linked-block element.
o Two routines were added to get compression information for the SD and
GR interfaces, including chunked elements: SDgetcompress/sfgcompress
and GRgetcompress/mggcompress.
Note:
- For a JPEG image, GRgetcompress only returns the compression type, not
the compression information (i.e, quantity and force_baseline). This
information is not currently retrievable.
- Getting compression type for JPEG chunked images is not working yet.
o "hdp dumpgr" has a new option, -pd, to print palette data only. Also,
whenever option -p or -pd is given, only palettes are printed, and no
images or file attributes.
o A new FORTRAN function, heprntf (HEprint), was added. It takes two
arguments: file name and level. If the file name string has 0 length,
then error messages will be printed to standard output.
o A memory leak in the netCDF portion of the HDF/mfhdf distribution
was fixed.
o The "#define NULL" was removed since ANSI C compilers are required to
define NULL.
o When using "hdp dumpgr", data was being printed in the range of 0-250
when it should have been between 0-168. This problem is now fixed.
Fortran, libf2c is static, etc. Fixed "hdfi.h" to work with any
architecture supported by NetBSD. Use "xdrposix.c" instead of
"xdrstdio.c" since the latter seems to be missing some functions.
Fixed "initialization from incompatible pointer type" warnings.
General improvements to Makefiles. Should build/work on any NetBSD
system now.
sensible value if a dependency is not yet installed. Problem noted by
Matthias Drochner with fix by Alistair Crooks.
Fixed `ncgen' to generate files which #include "netcdf_hdf.h" and
"netcdf_hdf.inc" thus allowing the HDF and netCDF packages to coexist.
Added test target in package Makefile for compiling and running the tests
for the libraries and the `ncdump' program.
HDF is a multi-object file format that facilitates the transfer of
various types of scientific data between machines and operating
systems. HDF allows self-definitions of data content and easy
extensibility for future enhancements or compatibility with other
standard formats. HDF includes Fortran and C calling interfaces, and
utilities to prepare raw image of data files or for use with other
NCSA software. The HDF library contains interfaces for storing and
retrieving compressed or uncompressed 8-bit and 24-bit raster images
with palettes, n-Dimensional scientific datasets and binary tables.
An interface is also included that allows arbitray grouping of other
HDF objects.
