Hi Elena,
your message was not so clear at first glance,
so I decided to repeate a portion of the test with 1.7.5
Only 2 cases this time:
B1) standard static build using just
./configure
B3) dynamic lib with pthread using
./configure --with-zlib --enable-shared
--with-pthread LDFLAGS=-no-undefined
plus patching Makefile.am's to allow shared libs
in both the cases no UNEXPECTED ERROR anymore.
So I guess you were referring to it, for the difference
between cygwin 1.7.5 and snapshots.
I presume the UNEXPECTED ERROR are due to a change in the
way of working of cygwin. I will investigate if it
is an error in the snapshots or in hdf5 expectation.
Until now I am not aware of any major fault in
the latest snapshots.
On case B1, static build as your, all the tests
are PASSED or skipped; fheap test is also completed in a
reasonable time.
Case B3 (like previous 2,3,4 on the snapshots)
looks similar as outcome; the fpheap test never
completes in a reasonable time and the only failures
reported are:
<eventually a wrong test on cygwin>
Testing MDC/FILE related API calls *FAILED*
check_file_mdc_api_calls(): failure_mssg = "Unexpected
internal config #3.".
Testing query functions of compiler conversion *FAILED*
Can't query conversion function
< These seems false failures>
Testing err_compat *FAILED*
! All error API tests passed.
Testing error_test *FAILED*
! All error API tests passed.
< This is clearly a wrong test on cygwin>
Check file ../src/.libs/libhdf5.so No such file FAILED
So no other difference from the test on the snapshot.
Let me know if you are interested to receive a copy
of the patch and of the build instruction I am using
for building the dynamic lib.
Regards
Marco
