Description:

H5T_COMMIT is a macro that is mapped to either H5T_COMMIT1 or H5T_COMMIT2, depending on the needs of the application.

Such macros are provided to facilitate application compatibility. Their use and mappings are fully described in “API Compatibility Macros in HDF5”; we urge you to read that document closely.

When both the HDF5 library and the application are built and installed with no specific compatibility flags, H5T_COMMIT is mapped to the most recent version of the function, currently H5T_COMMIT2. If the library and/or application is compiled for Release 1.6 emulation,  H5T_COMMIT will be mapped to H5T_COMMIT1 . Function-specific flags are available to override these settings on a function-by-function basis when the application is compiled.

Specific compile-time compatibility flags and the resulting mappings are as follows:
