Eliminate storing # of links in "link info" message, regenerate it
when the object is opened instead.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)
Mac OS X/32 10.4.8 (amazon)
Revise latest form of superblock format pretty drastically, to
eliminate unused fields and move rarely used fields into superblock extension.
Finished removing last vestiges of references to (never used) i"shared"
object header message ID.
Added object header messages for non-default v1 B-tree 'K' values
and for driver info.
Updated testfiles to reflect size changes, etc.
Various minor cleanups, etc.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 6.2 (duty)

File format is not stable, don't keep files produced!
Description:
First stage of checkins modifying the format of groups to support creation
order. Implement "dense" storage for links in groups.
Try to clarify some of the symbols for the H5L API.
Add the H5Pset_latest_format() flag for FAPLs, to choose to use the newest
file format options (including "dense" link storage in groups)
Add the H5Pset_track_creation_order() flag for GCPLs, to enable creation
order tracking in groups (although no index on creation order yet).
Remove --enable-group-revision configure flag, as file format issues are
now handled in a backwardly/forwardly compatible way.
Clean up lots of compiler warnings and other minor formatting issues.
Tested on:
FreeBSD/32 4.11 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
Linux/32 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
Linux/64 2.4 (mir) w/enable-v1.6 compa
Mac OSX/32 10.4.8 (amazon)
AIX 5.3 (copper) w/parallel & FORTRAN
Users can create external links using H5L_create_external(). These links
point to an object in another HDF5 file. Users can alter the behavior of
external links or create new kinds of links by registering callbacks
using the H5L interface.
Added tests, tools support, etc.
Also a number of other, minor changes have been made (some restructuring of
the H5L interface, for instance).
Additional documentation and examples are forthcoming.
h5dump new tests
Description:
added new tests for the -p option, superblock, file contents, fill values, array indices.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
AIX
solaris
Misc. update:
change features
Description:
for the file contents dump and for hardlinks, one arrow "->" is printed, followed
by the first found name for that object
options for not printing specific types of objects were postponed
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
dumper new features
Description:
1) added options for not printing : datasets, groups, datatypes, links
2) added a section for the user block
3) in the traversal routine, added the printing of an arrow for soft links and t
he word HARDLINK for hardlinks
the print of the file contents is made during traversal , instead of at the e
nd of it (this is helpful
for very large files, where the wait time can be very long)
4) changed the description of the fill value properties
5) added a colon after the printing of the array indices
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
AIX
solaris
Misc. update:
h5dump output change, new tests
Description:
the storage layout output format the storage layout output format had some changes
same for the user defined filter
add an option (-y) for not printing the array indices (default is print indices )
the option for escaping non printable characters covers all characters (default is not escape)
(this might be not very portable, the test files are tstring.ddl and tstringe.ddl )
add tests for the new options
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
AIX
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
the file tfilters.h5 was missing the szip dataset, due to a absent szip configuration when
it was generated
Solution:
generated it it again with szip on
Platforms tested:
linux (smalll change )
