Hello everyone,
A second pre-release candidate version of HDF5 1.8.16 is available for
testing and can be downloaded at the following link:
https://gamma.hdfgroup.org/ftp/pub/outgoing/hdf5/hdf5-1.8.16-pre2/
[cut]
The effect on the numbers from HDF5-1.8.15-patch1 to HDF5-1.8.16 was to
increase libhdf5.so.10.0.1 to libhdf5.so.10.1.0, libhdf5_cpp.so.10.0.1
to libhdf5_cpp.so.11.0.0, and all other wrapper library files from
libhdf5*.so.10.0.1 to libhdf5*.so.10.0.2.
Question:
- is it really needed to implement a new API bump for C++ interface ?
The continuous API bump forces to maintain several legacy version
of the library and/or to recompile every time the software depending
on the library.
Library API should be as stable as possible.
Only ImageMagick is worst than HDF5 for the packages that I am
managing for cygwin.
