| V2.7.1 |
16-May-01 |
- Add new ports: Solaris on PC, MacOS X and Linux on
DEC/Alpha.
- Correct bugs in CDFDump program.
- Correct and enhance CDF-Java APIs and Java Native
Interface (JNI).
- Add new Java-based tool programs for CDFEdit and CDFExport.
- Add variable name checking in CDFconvert for compression
option.
- Add Cygwin port for win32 on PC. Create individual tool
programs for Windows using Cygwin libraries.
|
| |
05-Dec-01 |
Add a new set of APIs: CDFgetrVarsRecordData,
CDFgetzVarsRecordData, CDFputrVarsRecordData and
CDFputzVarsRecordData to allow a full single
record read/write for a group of r/zVariables. |
| |
26-Jan-02 |
Correct a bug in cdfcmp.c for showing dimension size
differences between two zVariables. |
| |
28-Jun-02 |
Add a new option in cdfcmp.c to allow tolerance checks
while comparing two unequal data values. |
| |
22-Jul-02 |
Handle f77 Fortran for Cygwin. |
| |
25-Nov-02 |
- Add 64-bit mode for Solaris/sparc64 for sparcv9.
- gcc for 64-bit is added.
|
| V2.7.2 |
08-Apr-04 |
Change the way that current variable select is being
handled. Keep the current variable selected offset as a
reference for any following variable selection. Originally,
each time a selection of a variable or getting a variable's
field data will start the search for that variable ALWAYS
from the beginning of the variable list. It requires too
many I/Os for accessing a sequence of variables. |
| |
04-May-04 |
Corrected a bug that caused the f77 to fail under 64-bit
environment. |
| V3.0 |
07-Jan-05 |
- Changed file offset from type long (32-bit) to off_t
(64-bit) for the platform on which the data type is
supported. Changed the file I/O functions accordingly.
The CDF internal file structures are changed. Made the
library backward compatible, meaning programs created
from V3.0 can still access (read/update) the CDF files
of older version.
- Expanded the length of variable and attribute name from
64 to 256.
- The CDF/Java was modified to ensure that concurrent
accessing a CDF would be thread-safe.
- Added a new data type, CDF_EPOCH16, to
accommodate more refined time resolution within a
second. A new set of functions, similar to those
of CDF_EPOCH data type, was added.
- Modified cdfdump tool program to be more efficient in
data reading.
|
| |
25-Mar-05 |
Changed JNI and Java-CDF APIs to ensure proper operations
within the multiple-threaded environment. |
| V3.1.0 |
27-May-05 |
Added new sets of APIs to allow Standard Interface to
interact with zVariables and other CDF-related
information. |
| |
11-Jul-05 |
Added MingW port for PC. |
| |
05-Aug-05 |
Added new functions to allow creating CDF files in
older, V2.7, version, not just the default V3.1. |
| |
18-Jan-06 |
Modified code, including tools, to handle file path
that has ".cdf" or ".skt" extension while it is not
expected to be there. |
| |
30-Jan-06 |
Add FreeBSD port for PCs. |
| |
1-Feb-06 |
Added Intel C++ and Fortran compilers for Linux port on PCs. |
| |
22-Jun-06 |
- Added support for HPUX and AIX for both 32 and 64-bit mode.
- Allow Mac OS X to build code for PPC and x386.
|
| V3.1.1 |
12-Oct-06 |
- Modified to allow upper/lower case CDF name for Windows.
- Changed Epoch to make 9999-12-31 23:59:999 as encoded date
for the filled value of -1.0E31. For Epoch16, a pair of
-1.0E31 filled values is encoded as
9999-12-31 23:59:999:999:999:999.
|
| V3.2.0 |
21-Oct-06 |
Added MD5 checksum feature for data integrity check of the
CDF. Modified tools to use the checksum feature.
Added a couple of new tool programs: cdfdump and cdfmerge.
Renamed the original cdfdump to cdfirsdump. |
| |
25-Apr-07 |
Changed the default size of cache buffers from 512 to
10240 bytes to improve data access performance. |
| |
18-Jun-07 |
Enhanced READONLY mode to improve metadata access
performance. When READONLY mode is selected, all metadata
is read and stored in internal data structures which are
then accessed whenever metadata is requested. |
| V3.2.1 |
24-Apr-08 |
Modified the library so a potential buffer overflow
vulnerability when reading specially-crafted (invalid) CDF
can be avoided. |
| V3.2.2 |
10-Aug-08 |
A maintenance release. Modified the Java tools so they can
handle CDF files with space(s) in the file path. cdfmerge
tool was modified to allow merging "Epoch" variable data
just like other variables. Also, corrected a couple of
bugs related to READONLY mode functions that cause memory
leak and fail to find attribute entries. |
| V3.2.3 |
24-Nov-08 |
Modified CDFdump to add a new output option. |
