OK, you can use SVN to check out a current version of the SWMR code
from this URL:
http://svn.hdfgroup.uiuc.edu/hdf5/branches/revise_chunks/
The main feature currently enabled is that when the "latest" version of
the file format is used and a dataset is extended, the writer can do this
without coordination with the reader (as long as they share a POSIX compatible
file system - which NFS is _not_). Take a look at the "swmr_writer.c" and
"swmr_reader.c" code in the test subdirectory for how to enable and leverage
this behavior. Eventually, all metadata modifications will be supported for
SWMR access, not just extending datasets.
