We will greatly appreciate if you test this pre-release on the platform(s) of your choice and report any problems found to this list as soon as possible. We have about three weeks to address the issues.
Notice to the autoconf Unix users: The default configuration for this release candidate is "development". The next release candidate will be available in the "production" mode as the release itself.
- Simplified configuration for building thread-safe library (use --enable-threadsafe configure flag)
- New H5free_memory function to ensure that the same CRT handles both allocation and free
- Support for collective I/O on point selections for parallel applications
- New C++ wrappers to get object's name and type
- Improved handling of NULL pointers in H5Dread/H5Dwrite calls: H5Dwrite/read doesn't fail anymore
when a NULL pointer was passed for a data buffer and 0 elements were selected.
- Support for user-defined (both registered or dynamically loaded) filters in h5repack (yes, you can remove UD filter now!)
- MPI POSIX driver has been removed
Please don't be discouraged if you don't see your patch in this release. Some patches came too late or need rework.
Happy testing and we look forward to hearing from you!
Thank you!
Elena

NetCDF-4 code has 2 calls to H5Pset_fapl_mpiposix() in libsrc4/nc4file.c which cause link errors because the function no longer exists. They are in else blocks where the if is using MPI/IO.
There are also some posix tests in nc_test4/tst_nc4perf.c and nc_test4/tst_parallel3.c which may be enabled by the --enable-parallel-tests option and will fail in make check after the link error is corrected.
The attached patch turns off these calls and tests for the HDF5 1.8.13 version. It will be submitted to Unidata for possible incorporation into the netCDF4 code. It allows make and make check to complete successfully for me. If you're interested in trying it, please let us know if it is effective for you.

Subject: Re: [Hdf-forum] HDF5 1.8.13 release candidate (pre1) is available for testing
Hi,
The candidate I got compiles and runs fine on Centos 6.4, however, I am unable to compile netcdf with it, due to the missing MPI POSIX driver.
Any hints?
Thanks,
Jason

Thank you for finding the issue! The dependency was unintentionally removed when we attempted to fix a configuration problem.
We will fix it for the HDF5 1.8.13-pre2 tar ball.
