+# HDF5 1.10.5+ Support Implementation Plan
+
+> **For Claude:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task.
+
+**Goal:** Lower minimum HDF5 requirement from 1.12.0 to 1.10.5 for compatibility with Ubuntu packages and other ecosystems (HDF5.jl, h5py).
+
+**Architecture:** Runtime version detection at library init, with version-dependent API branching through wrapper functions. LocationToken becomes an enum supporting both `haddr_t` (pre-1.12) and `H5O_token_t` (1.12+).
+
+**Tech Stack:** Rust, HDF5 C API, libloading for runtime symbol loading
+
+---
+
+## Summary of Changes
+
+1. **Version Detection**: Add global static to store detected HDF5 version at init
+2. **Type Additions**: Add `H5O_info1_t` type for pre-1.12 API
+3. **Function Loading**: Add optional loading of pre-1.12 functions (`H5Oget_info1`, `H5Oopen_by_addr`)
+4. **LocationToken**: Change from newtype wrapper to enum with Address/Token variants
+5. **Wrapper Functions**: Create `h5o_get_info`, `h5o_open_by_token` that branch by version
+6. **CI Updates**: Test both HDF5 1.10.x (apt) and 1.12.x+ (conda-forge)
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Add Version Storage and Detection in runtime.rs
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `hdf5/src/sys/runtime.rs:770-841` (version checking area)
+
+**Step 1: Write the failing test**
+
+Create a test that checks version is stored and retrievable.
+
+```rust
+// In hdf5/src/sys/runtime.rs, add to the end of the file
+#[cfg(test)]
+mod tests {
+    use super::*;
+
+    #[test]
+    fn test_hdf5_version_stored() {
+        // Initialize if not already
+        if !is_initialized() {
+            init(None).expect("Failed to initialize HDF5");
+        }
+        let version = hdf5_version();
+        assert!(version.major >= 1);
+        assert!(version.minor >= 10);
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Step 2: Run test to verify it fails**
+
+Run: `cargo test --package hdf5 test_hdf5_version_stored -- --nocapture`
+Expected: FAIL with "cannot find function `hdf5_version`"
+
+**Step 3: Add version storage and accessor**
+
+Add after line 773 (after `LIBRARY_PATH` definition):
+
+```rust
+static HDF5_VERSION: OnceLock<Version> = OnceLock::new();
+
+/// Get the detected HDF5 library version.
+/// Returns None if the library is not initialized.
+pub fn hdf5_version() -> Version {
+    *HDF5_VERSION.get().expect("HDF5 library not initialized")
+}
+
+/// Check if HDF5 version is at least the specified version.
+pub fn hdf5_version_at_least(major: u8, minor: u8, micro: u8) -> bool {
+    let v = hdf5_version();
+    (v.major, v.minor, v.micro) >= (major, minor, micro)
+}
+```
+
+**Step 4: Modify check_hdf5_version to store version**
+
+Replace the `check_hdf5_version` function:
+
+```rust
+/// Check that the HDF5 library version is at least 1.10.5.
+/// Stores the version for later queries.
+fn check_hdf5_version() -> Result<(), String> {
+    let mut major: c_uint = 0;
+    let mut minor: c_uint = 0;
+    let mut release: c_uint = 0;
+    unsafe {
+        H5get_libversion(&mut major, &mut minor, &mut release);
+    }
+
+    let version = Version {
+        major: major as u8,
+        minor: minor as u8,
+        micro: release as u8,
+    };
+
+    HDF5_VERSION.set(version).map_err(|_| "Version already set".to_string())?;
+
+    if major < 1 || (major == 1 && minor < 10) || (major == 1 && minor == 10 && release < 5) {
+        return Err(format!(
+            "HDF5 {}.{}.{} is not supported. Minimum required version is 1.10.5",
+            major, minor, release
+        ));
+    }
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+**Step 5: Run test to verify it passes**
+
+Run: `cargo test --package hdf5 test_hdf5_version_stored -- --nocapture`
+Expected: PASS
+
+**Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add hdf5/src/sys/runtime.rs
+git commit -m "feat: add HDF5 version storage and detection
+
+- Add HDF5_VERSION global static to store detected version
+- Add hdf5_version() and hdf5_version_at_least() accessors
+- Change minimum version from 1.12.0 to 1.10.5
+
+Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 2: Add H5O_info1_t Type for Pre-1.12 API
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `hdf5/src/sys/runtime.rs:556-568` (near H5O_info2_t definition)
+
+**Step 1: Write the failing test**
+
+```rust
+#[test]
+fn test_h5o_info1_t_exists() {
+    // This test just verifies the type exists and has expected size
+    let info: H5O_info1_t = unsafe { std::mem::zeroed() };
+    // H5O_info1_t has different size than H5O_info2_t
+    // info1 uses haddr_t (8 bytes), info2 uses H5O_token_t (16 bytes)
+    assert!(std::mem::size_of::<H5O_info1_t>() > 0);
+}
+```
+
+**Step 2: Run test to verify it fails**
+
+Run: `cargo test --package hdf5 test_h5o_info1_t_exists -- --nocapture`
+Expected: FAIL with "cannot find type `H5O_info1_t`"
+
+**Step 3: Add H5O_info1_t type definition**
+
+Add after H5O_info2_t definition (around line 568):
+
+```rust
+/// Object info structure for HDF5 < 1.12 (uses haddr_t instead of token)
+#[repr(C)]
+#[derive(Debug, Copy, Clone)]
+pub struct H5O_info1_t {
+    pub fileno: c_ulong,
+    pub addr: haddr_t,
+    pub type_: H5O_type_t,
+    pub rc: c_uint,
+    pub atime: i64,
+    pub mtime: i64,
+    pub ctime: i64,
+    pub btime: i64,
+    pub num_attrs: hsize_t,
+    // Note: The full H5O_info1_t has more fields (hdr, meta_size),
+    // but we only need the basic fields for our use case.
+    // We'll use H5O_INFO_BASIC flag which only fills these fields.
+}
+```
+
+**Step 4: Run test to verify it passes**
+
+Run: `cargo test --package hdf5 test_h5o_info1_t_exists -- --nocapture`
+Expected: PASS
+
+**Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add hdf5/src/sys/runtime.rs
+git commit -m "feat: add H5O_info1_t type for HDF5 < 1.12
+
+Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 3: Add Pre-1.12 Function Loading (H5Oget_info1, H5Oopen_by_addr)
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `hdf5/src/sys/runtime.rs:1260-1285` (H5O functions area)
+
+**Step 1: Add conditional function loading**
+
+Since these functions only exist in HDF5 < 1.12, we need a different approach than `hdf5_function!` macro. We'll use optional function loading.
+
+Add after existing H5O functions (around line 1285):
+
+```rust
+// Pre-1.12 functions (loaded conditionally)
+// These are loaded using try_get instead of get to avoid panic on 1.12+
+
+/// H5Oget_info1 - Available in HDF5 < 1.12
+/// Returns None if the function is not available (HDF5 >= 1.12)
+pub unsafe fn H5Oget_info1(loc_id: hid_t, oinfo: *mut H5O_info1_t, fields: c_uint) -> Option<herr_t> {
+    let lib = get_library();
+    let func: Option<Symbol<unsafe extern "C" fn(hid_t, *mut H5O_info1_t, c_uint) -> herr_t>> =
+        lib.get(b"H5Oget_info1").ok();
+    func.map(|f| f(loc_id, oinfo, fields))
+}
+
+/// H5Oget_info_by_name1 - Available in HDF5 < 1.12
+pub unsafe fn H5Oget_info_by_name1(
+    loc_id: hid_t,
+    name: *const c_char,
+    oinfo: *mut H5O_info1_t,
+    fields: c_uint,
+    lapl_id: hid_t,
+) -> Option<herr_t> {
+    let lib = get_library();
+    let func: Option<Symbol<unsafe extern "C" fn(hid_t, *const c_char, *mut H5O_info1_t, c_uint, hid_t) -> herr_t>> =
+        lib.get(b"H5Oget_info_by_name1").ok();
+    func.map(|f| f(loc_id, name, oinfo, fields, lapl_id))
+}
+
+/// H5Oopen_by_addr - Available in all HDF5 versions
+pub unsafe fn H5Oopen_by_addr(loc_id: hid_t, addr: haddr_t) -> hid_t {
+    let lib = get_library();
+    let func: Symbol<unsafe extern "C" fn(hid_t, haddr_t) -> hid_t> = lib
+        .get(b"H5Oopen_by_addr")
+        .expect("Failed to load H5Oopen_by_addr");
+    func(loc_id, addr)
+}
+```
+
+**Step 2: Export in h5o module**
+
+Update `hdf5/src/sys/mod.rs` h5o module (around line 267-278):
+
+```rust
+pub mod h5o {
+    pub use super::runtime::{
+        H5O_info1_t, H5O_info2_t, H5O_token_t, H5O_type_t, H5Oclose, H5Ocopy, H5Oget_comment,
+        H5Oget_info1, H5Oget_info3, H5Oget_info_by_name1, H5Oget_info_by_name3, H5Oopen,
+        H5Oopen_by_addr, H5Oopen_by_token, H5Oset_comment, H5O_COPY_ALL,
+        H5O_COPY_EXPAND_EXT_LINK_FLAG, H5O_COPY_EXPAND_REFERENCE_FLAG,
+        H5O_COPY_EXPAND_SOFT_LINK_FLAG, H5O_COPY_MERGE_COMMITTED_DTYPE_FLAG,
+        H5O_COPY_PRESERVE_NULL_FLAG, H5O_COPY_SHALLOW_HIERARCHY_FLAG, H5O_COPY_WITHOUT_ATTR_FLAG,
+        H5O_INFO_ALL, H5O_INFO_BASIC, H5O_INFO_NUM_ATTRS, H5O_INFO_TIME, H5O_SHMESG_ALL_FLAG,
+        H5O_SHMESG_ATTR_FLAG, H5O_SHMESG_DTYPE_FLAG, H5O_SHMESG_FILL_FLAG, H5O_SHMESG_NONE_FLAG,
+        H5O_SHMESG_PLINE_FLAG, H5O_SHMESG_SDSPACE_FLAG,
+    };
+}
+```
+
+**Step 3: Run cargo check**
+
+Run: `cargo check --package hdf5`
+Expected: PASS (no compilation errors)
+
+**Step 4: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add hdf5/src/sys/runtime.rs hdf5/src/sys/mod.rs
+git commit -m "feat: add pre-1.12 H5O functions (H5Oget_info1, H5Oopen_by_addr)
+
+- H5Oget_info1 and H5Oget_info_by_name1 loaded conditionally
+- H5Oopen_by_addr available in all versions

+
+### Task 4: Change LocationToken to Enum with Address/Token Variants
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `hdf5/src/hl/location.rs:231-243` (LocationToken definition)
+
+**Step 1: Change LocationToken from newtype to enum**
+
+Replace the LocationToken definition:
+
+```rust
+/// A token containing the identifier of a [`Location`].
+///
+/// In HDF5 < 1.12, this is an address (`haddr_t`).
+/// In HDF5 >= 1.12, this is a token (`H5O_token_t`).
+#[derive(Clone, Copy, Debug, PartialEq, Eq)]
+pub enum LocationToken {
+    /// Address-based identifier (HDF5 < 1.12)
+    Address(haddr_t),
+    /// Token-based identifier (HDF5 >= 1.12)
+    Token(H5O_token_t),
+}
+```
+
+**Step 2: Update LocationInfo::from implementation**
+
+The From impl needs to handle both info types. Update the implementation:
+
+```rust
+impl LocationInfo {
+    /// Create LocationInfo from H5O_info2_t (HDF5 >= 1.12)
+    pub(crate) fn from_info2(info: H5O_info2_t) -> Self {
+        Self {
+            fileno: info.fileno as _,
+            token: LocationToken::Token(info.token),
+            loc_type: info.type_.into(),
+            num_links: info.rc as _,
+            atime: info.atime as _,
+            mtime: info.mtime as _,
+            ctime: info.ctime as _,
+            btime: info.btime as _,
+            num_attrs: info.num_attrs as _,
+        }
+    }
+
+    /// Create LocationInfo from H5O_info1_t (HDF5 < 1.12)
+    pub(crate) fn from_info1(info: H5O_info1_t) -> Self {
+        Self {
+            fileno: info.fileno as _,
+            token: LocationToken::Address(info.addr),
+            loc_type: info.type_.into(),
+            num_links: info.rc as _,
+            atime: info.atime as _,
+            mtime: info.mtime as _,
+            ctime: info.ctime as _,
+            btime: info.btime as _,
+            num_attrs: info.num_attrs as _,
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Remove the old `From<H5O_info2_t>` impl.
+
+**Step 3: Update H5O_get_info and H5O_open_by_token functions**
+
+Replace the wrapper functions with version-branching implementations:
+
+```rust
+use crate::sys::{hdf5_version_at_least, H5O_info1_t};
+
+#[allow(non_snake_case)]
+fn H5O_get_info(loc_id: hid_t, full: bool) -> Result<LocationInfo> {
+    if hdf5_version_at_least(1, 12, 0) {
+        // HDF5 >= 1.12: Use H5Oget_info3 with H5O_info2_t
+        let mut info_buf = MaybeUninit::uninit();
+        let info_ptr = info_buf.as_mut_ptr();
+        h5call!(H5Oget_info3(loc_id, info_ptr, info_fields(full)))?;
+        let info = unsafe { info_buf.assume_init() };
+        Ok(LocationInfo::from_info2(info))
+    } else {
+        // HDF5 < 1.12: Use H5Oget_info1 with H5O_info1_t
+        let mut info_buf: MaybeUninit<H5O_info1_t> = MaybeUninit::uninit();
+        let info_ptr = info_buf.as_mut_ptr();
+        let result = unsafe { H5Oget_info1(loc_id, info_ptr, info_fields(full)) };
+        match result {

+                let info = unsafe { info_buf.assume_init() };
+                Ok(LocationInfo::from_info1(info))
+            }
+            Some(_) => Err(Error::query()),
+            None => fail!("H5Oget_info1 not available"),
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+#[allow(non_snake_case)]
+fn H5O_get_info_by_name(loc_id: hid_t, name: *const c_char, full: bool) -> Result<LocationInfo> {
+    if hdf5_version_at_least(1, 12, 0) {
+        let mut info_buf = MaybeUninit::uninit();
+        let info_ptr = info_buf.as_mut_ptr();
+        h5call!(H5Oget_info_by_name3(loc_id, name, info_ptr, info_fields(full), H5P_DEFAULT))?;
+        let info = unsafe { info_buf.assume_init() };
+        Ok(LocationInfo::from_info2(info))
+    } else {

+        let info_ptr = info_buf.as_mut_ptr();
+        let result = unsafe { H5Oget_info_by_name1(loc_id, name, info_ptr, info_fields(full), H5P_DEFAULT) };
+        match result {
+            Some(ret) if ret >= 0 => {
+                let info = unsafe { info_buf.assume_init() };
+                Ok(LocationInfo::from_info1(info))
+            }
+            Some(_) => Err(Error::query()),
+            None => fail!("H5Oget_info_by_name1 not available"),
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+#[allow(non_snake_case)]
+fn H5O_open_by_token(loc_id: hid_t, token: LocationToken) -> Result<Location> {
+    match token {
+        LocationToken::Token(t) => {
+            Location::from_id(h5call!(H5Oopen_by_token(loc_id, t))?)
+        }
+        LocationToken::Address(addr) => {
+            let id = unsafe { H5Oopen_by_addr(loc_id, addr) };
+            if id < 0 {
+                Err(Error::query())
+            } else {
+                Location::from_id(id)
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Step 4: Update imports**
+
+Update the imports at the top of location.rs:
+
+```rust
+use crate::sys::h5o::{
+    H5O_info1_t, H5O_info2_t, H5O_token_t, H5Oget_info1, H5Oget_info3,
+    H5Oget_info_by_name1, H5Oget_info_by_name3, H5Oopen_by_addr, H5Oopen_by_token,
+    H5O_INFO_BASIC, H5O_INFO_NUM_ATTRS, H5O_INFO_TIME,
+};
+use crate::sys::{haddr_t, hdf5_version_at_least};
+```
+
+**Step 5: Run tests**
+
+Run: `cargo test --package hdf5 test_location_info -- --nocapture`
+Expected: PASS
+
+**Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add hdf5/src/hl/location.rs
+git commit -m "feat: change LocationToken to enum for pre-1.12 support

+
+### Task 5: Export Version Functions from sys module
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `hdf5/src/sys/mod.rs:614-630` (bottom of file)
+
+**Step 1: Export version functions**
+
+Add to the public API at the end of mod.rs:
+
+```rust
+/// Get the detected HDF5 library version.
+pub fn hdf5_version() -> runtime::Version {
+    runtime::hdf5_version()
+}
+
+/// Check if HDF5 version is at least the specified version.
+pub fn hdf5_version_at_least(major: u8, minor: u8, micro: u8) -> bool {
+    runtime::hdf5_version_at_least(major, minor, micro)
+}
+```
+
+Also export `haddr_t` from h5 module if not already:
+
+```rust
+pub mod h5 {
+    pub use super::runtime::{
+        c_char, c_double, c_float, c_int, c_long, c_uint, c_ulong, c_void, haddr_t, hbool_t,
+        herr_t, hid_t, hsize_t, hssize_t, htri_t, size_t, ssize_t, H5_index_t, H5_iter_order_t,
+        // ... rest of exports
+    };
+}
+```
+
+**Step 2: Run cargo check**
+
+Run: `cargo check --package hdf5`
+Expected: PASS
+
+**Step 3: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add hdf5/src/sys/mod.rs
+git commit -m "feat: export version functions from sys module
+
+Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 6: Update CI to Test Multiple HDF5 Versions
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `.github/workflows/ci.yml`
+
+**Step 1: Update test matrix to include HDF5 version testing**
+
+Replace the test job to test both 1.10.x and 1.12+:
+
+```yaml
+  test:
+    name: test (${{ matrix.os }}, HDF5 ${{ matrix.hdf5 }})
+    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
+    strategy:
+      fail-fast: false
+      matrix:
+        include:
+          # Ubuntu with system HDF5 (1.10.x)

+**Step 2: Update interop tests to use conda HDF5**
+
+The Julia and Python interop tests should continue using conda-forge HDF5 1.12+.
+
+**Step 3: Run CI locally (optional)**
+
+Run: `cargo test --workspace`
+Expected: PASS on local machine
+
+**Step 4: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add .github/workflows/ci.yml
+git commit -m "ci: test multiple HDF5 versions (1.10.x, 1.12, 1.14)
+
+- Add matrix for HDF5 version testing
+- Ubuntu system HDF5 (1.10.x) tests compatibility
+- Conda HDF5 1.12 and 1.14 test newer features

+
+**Step 2: Run clippy**
+
+Run: `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings`
+
+**Step 3: Run fmt**

+---
+
+### Task 8: Create Pull Request
+
+**Step 1: Push branch**
+
+```bash
+git push -u origin feat/hdf5-1.10.5-support
+```
+
+**Step 2: Create PR**
+
+```bash
+gh pr create --title "feat: support HDF5 1.10.5+" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
+## Summary
+- Lower minimum HDF5 requirement from 1.12.0 to 1.10.5
+- Add runtime version detection and branching
+- LocationToken now supports both address (pre-1.12) and token (1.12+) modes
+- CI tests multiple HDF5 versions
+
+## Changes
+- Add version storage and `hdf5_version()`, `hdf5_version_at_least()` accessors
+- Add `H5O_info1_t` type for pre-1.12 API
+- Add optional loading of `H5Oget_info1`, `H5Oopen_by_addr`
+- Change `LocationToken` to enum with `Address`/`Token` variants
+- Update CI matrix to test 1.10.x, 1.12, and 1.14
+
+## Test plan
+- [ ] Tests pass with HDF5 1.10.x (Ubuntu system packages)
+- [ ] Tests pass with HDF5 1.12+ (conda-forge)
+- [ ] Tests pass with HDF5 1.14 (conda-forge)
+- [ ] Julia interop tests pass
+- [ ] Python interop tests pass
+
+🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)
+EOF
+)"
+```
+
+**Step 3: Enable auto-merge**
+
+```bash
+gh pr merge --auto --squash --delete-branch
+```
+
+---
+
+## Execution Options
+
+**Plan complete and saved to `docs/plans/2026-02-05-hdf5-1.10.5-support-plan.md`.**
+
+Two execution options:
+
+**1. Subagent-Driven (this session)** - I dispatch fresh subagent per task, review between tasks, fast iteration
+
+**2. Parallel Session (separate)** - Open new session with executing-plans, batch execution with checkpoints
+
+Which approach?

Subject: [PATCH 08/21] feat: complete HDF5 1.10.x compatibility and CI matrix
 testing

- Add version-dependent wrappers for H5Sencode, H5Literate
- Fix H5Oget_info1/H5Oget_info_by_name1 signatures (no fields param)
- Add complete H5O_info1_t struct with hdr and meta_size fields
- Add convert_h5i_type for H5I_type_t enum differences between versions
- Skip test_references on HDF5 < 1.12 (requires H5R_ref_t)
- Update CI to explicitly test HDF5 1.10.x, 1.12.x, 1.14.x
- Add test script for local multi-version testing

Tested with HDF5 1.10.11, 1.12.3, 1.13.3, 1.14.5

Subject: [PATCH 09/21] refactor: rename crates to hdf5-rt and hdf5-rt-types
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Rename for general use beyond tensor4all:
- tensor4all-hdf5-ffi → hdf5-rt
- tensor4all-hdf5-types → hdf5-rt-types

Also recover tests from hdf5-metno:
- test_plist.rs (39 tests, 2 ignored)
- test_datatypes.rs (7 tests)
- test_object_references.rs (8 tests)
- tests.rs (1 test with manual H5Type impl)

Test coverage improved from 70.45% to 82.27%

-Thread-safe Rust bindings for the HDF5 library, forked from [hdf5-metno](https://github.com/metno/hdf5-rust) for the tensor4all project.
+Thread-safe Rust bindings for the HDF5 library with **runtime loading** (dlopen).
+
+Forked from [hdf5-metno](https://github.com/metno/hdf5-rust).
 
 ## Overview
 
-This is a simplified fork of hdf5-metno with:
-- Removed features: MPI, compression filters (blosc, lzf, zfp)
-- Removed derive macros (hdf5-derive)
-- Uses hdf5-metno-sys from crates.io for FFI bindings
-- Infrastructure for runtime library loading (dlopen) for Julia/Python bindings
+`hdf5-rt` loads the HDF5 library at runtime via dlopen, eliminating build-time dependencies on HDF5. This makes it ideal for:
+
+- **Julia/Python bindings** - Reuse the HDF5 library already loaded by HDF5.jl or h5py
+- **Portable binaries** - Ship without bundling HDF5
+- **Version flexibility** - Work with any compatible HDF5 version installed on the system
 
 ## Features
 
+- **Runtime loading** - No compile-time HDF5 dependency
+- **HDF5 1.10.5+ support** - Compatible with Ubuntu 22.04, HDF5.jl, h5py
+- **Thread-safe** - Safe concurrent access to HDF5
+
+Optional features:
 - `complex`: Complex number type support (Complex32, Complex64)
 - `f16`: Float16 type support
-- `runtime-loading`: Runtime library loading via dlopen (infrastructure only)
 
 ## Usage
 
 ```toml
 [dependencies]
-hdf5 = { git = "https://github.com/shinaoka/tensor4all-hdf5-ffi" }
+hdf5-rt = { git = "https://github.com/tensor4all/hdf5-rt" }
 ```
 
-## Requirements
-
-- **HDF5 1.12.0 or later** - The library uses HDF5 1.12+ features
+```rust
+use hdf5_rt::File;
+
+fn main() -> hdf5_rt::Result<()> {
+    let file = File::create("test.h5")?;
+    let group = file.create_group("data")?;
+    let dataset = group.new_dataset::<f64>()
+        .shape([100, 100])
+        .create("matrix")?;
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
 
-## Building
+## Requirements
 
-Requires HDF5 library (version 1.12.0+) installed on your system:
+- **HDF5 1.10.5 or later** installed on your system

- Add H5T_COMPLEX type class (new in HDF5 2.0)
- Update H5T_NCLASSES to 12 for HDF5 2.0
- Update version test to accept both HDF5 1.x and 2.x

Note: Our runtime-loading approach requires handling both versions
in the same binary, unlike upstream compile-time feature flags.

Subject: [PATCH 12/21] fix: leak HDF5 library handle to prevent cleanup issues

Root cause: When the OnceLock<Library> was dropped at process exit,
dlclose() was called on the HDF5 library. This triggered HDF5's
internal cleanup routines which caused 'infinite loop closing library'
and SIGSEGV on Linux, especially during parallel test execution.

Solution: Use Box::leak() to intentionally leak the library handle.
This prevents dlclose() from being called, keeping the HDF5 library
loaded until process termination. This is safe because:
1. We only load the library once per process
2. The OS will reclaim all memory on process exit
3. This is a common pattern for libraries with problematic cleanup

Also reverts the CI workaround (--test-threads=1) since the root
cause is now fixed.

Subject: [PATCH 13/21] ci: use single-threaded tests on Linux to avoid SIGSEGV

Parallel test execution on Linux causes SIGSEGV in test_plist tests.
The root cause is still under investigation, but this workaround
allows CI to pass while we debug the issue.

macOS parallel tests work fine, so only Linux CI uses --test-threads=1.

- Remove test-features job, use --all-features in main test job
- Temporarily disable test_plist.rs (SIGSEGV on Linux with conda HDF5)
- Add *.disabled to .gitignore

The test_plist tests work on macOS but crash on Linux.
Root cause investigation needed.

Subject: [PATCH 15/21] ci: upgrade Julia to 1.11 to fix curl_multi_assign
 abort

Julia 1.10 + curl 8.10+ triggers a crash in Downloads.jl during
Pkg.instantiate() due to a NULL handle dereference in curl_multi_assign.
Julia 1.11 includes a fixed Downloads.jl that avoids this issue.

Subject: [PATCH 16/21] fix: re-enable test_plist and improve PropertyList
 error handling

- PropertyList::copy() now returns Result<Self> instead of silently
  returning an invalid handle on failure
- get_shared_mesg_indexes() uses h5get! instead of h5get_d! to
  propagate errors instead of silently defaulting to 0
- Re-enable test_plist.rs (41 tests) - SIGSEGV was caused by the
  library cleanup issue fixed in 057fb0f, not by plist operations
- Replace conda with JLL/system HDF5 in Julia interop CI to avoid
  curl_multi_assign crash in Pkg.instantiate()

Subject: [PATCH 17/21] fix: CI fixes for test_plist SIGSEGV and Julia interop

- Use --test-threads=1 on Linux to avoid test_plist SIGSEGV in parallel
- Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in test_interop.jl so Rust binary can dlopen
  JLL libhdf5.so and its dependencies
- Add pkg-config fallback path for Ubuntu systems

Subject: [PATCH 18/21] ci: add gdb backtrace for test_plist SIGSEGV debugging

Add gdb step to capture exact backtrace of SIGSEGV in test_fapl_common
on x86_64 Linux. This will reveal the exact crash location.

Subject: [PATCH 19/21] fix: correct hbool_t type from c_uint (4 bytes) to u8
 (1 byte)

HDF5's hbool_t is typedef'd as bool (_Bool), which is 1 byte on all
modern systems with <stdbool.h>. Our definition was c_uint (4 bytes),
causing struct layout mismatches in H5AC_cache_config_t and other
structs containing hbool_t fields.

This was the root cause of the SIGSEGV in test_plist on x86_64 Linux:
H5Pget_mdc_config wrote into H5AC_cache_config_t using 1-byte bool
offsets, but Rust read fields at 4-byte uint offsets, causing
decr_mode to contain an invalid enum discriminant.

Also removes the temporary GDB debugging CI step and continue-on-error.

 pin ubuntu

- Add get_jll_lib_paths() to collect all JLL dependency library paths
  (Zlib_jll, libaec_jll, etc.) for LD_LIBRARY_PATH when running Rust binary
- Pin Julia interop job to ubuntu-22.04 to avoid libssl.so loading issues
  on ubuntu-24.04 where system OpenSSL 3.x conflicts with JLL OpenSSL 1.1
