Fix several NULL pointer dereferences when tracking the name of open
objects during some unusual sequences of mount & unmount operations.

Bug fix/new feature
Description:
Setting "SEMI" or "STRONG" file close degrees causes problems when multiple
file IDs exist for the same file on disk.
Solution:
Make the "SEMI" and "STRONG" settings only apply to the file ID that is
being closed.
Also, add an "H5F_OBJ_LOCAL" flag for the H5Fget_obj_count() &
H5Fget_obj_ids() calls, so that applications can query about objects opened
with a particular file ID instead of all the objects opened in the file on
disk.

h5committest
Description: See details from Bug #213. Family member file size wasn't saved
anywhere in file. When family file is opened, the first member size determine
the member size.
Solution: This is the third step of checkin. h5repart has been modified. If h5repart is used
to change the size of family member file, the new size(actual member size) is saved in the superblock.
In the second step of checkin, multi driver is checked against the driver
name saved in superblock. Wrong driver will result in a failure with an error message indicating
multi driver should be used. This change includes split driver because it's a special case for multi
driver.
In the first step of checkin. Family member size and name template(unused at this stage) are saved
in file superblock. When file is reopened,the size passed in thrin superblock. A different size
will trigger a failure with an error message indicating the right size. Wrong driver to open family
file will cause a failure, too.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss

Feature
Description:
Added "support" for UTF-8 character encoding.
Solution:
Wrote tests to check that UTF-8 can be used in a number of places in
HDF5 (object names, data, etc.). These tests live in test/tunicode.c.
Added a new UTF-8 character encoding for datatypes.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, heping
Misc. update:
Description: h5pget_driver_f function returned information that could not
be interpreted by fortran application
Solution: Defined Fortran global variables that correspond to
the C H5FD_<driver_name> variables at the Fortran library
initialization time.
Platforms tested: heping with PGI compilers, sol 64-bit and copper parallel
Misc. update:
Description: Removed support for SRB driver
Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure
to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files.
Platforms tested: heping and shanti
Misc. update: ran bin/chkmanifest on heping
Description: Added missing h5get_member_class_f function
Solution:
Platforms tested: heping; it is a simple change. I will
watch daily tests and take care of failures.
Misc. update:
Update documents about installing hdf5 on windows xp
Description:
Modified files: INSTALL_Windows.txt INSTALL_Windows_From_Command_Line.txt
INSTALL_Windows_Short.txt
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Added C++ wrapper for Packet Table API.
Description:
Added macro for high-level C++ library (LIBH5CPP_HL), which changes every
Makefile.in.
Added directories for high-level C++ library (though currently only Packet
Table API is supported).
Added both C++ source and tests.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, mir, modi4
Misc. update:
Optimization
Description:
Speed up I/O on enumerated datatypes (including those nested in compound
datatypes, arrays, etc.) if the destination datatype is a proper superset of
the source datatype.
Solution:
Detect the situation and treat as no-op datatype conversion.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Automake update cleanup and minor changes
Description:
Removed macros in acsite.m4 that are no longer used.
Switched to using autoconf's AC_LANG_PUSH(Fortran) instead of old
AC_LANG_FORTRAN9X macro.
Switched to using AC_LANG_PUSH() and AC_LANG_POP() (from old AC_LANG_X).
Added ifort to list of Fortran compilers configure will look for.
Added a note about automake change to Release Notes.
Platforms tested:
copper, modi4 (parallel and serial), eirene
Description: Support of hardware conversion between "long double" and integers(mainly in
H5Tconv.c) and test cases for it(mainly in dtypes.c)
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Update.
Description:
Update installation file on how to link HDF5 with Zlib 1.2.2 and Szip 2.0 DLL libraries.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
Description: H5Tget_member_value didn't return correct value if called after
H5Tenum_valueof. It's because there's a sorting on the members of enum type in
H5Tenum_valueof which changed the order of members.
Solution: Made a copy of original type and do sorting on it to protect the
original order.
Platforms tested: fuss; tested v1.6 with h5committest
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Description: For variable-length string, H5Tget_class returned H5T_STRING as
its class. But H5Tdetect_class and H5Tget_member_class considered it as
H5T_VLEN. This is fixed to let all these 3 functions treat it as H5T_STRING.
Some test cases have been added to dtypes.c
Platforms tested: heping - already tested for v1.6 with h5committest
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Description: The byte order for all 1-byte integer types was fixed as little-endian
even on a big-endian machine. This's corrected in h5detect.c. When types are only
1 byte long, a native int is used substitute the type to detect byte order. Some tools
like h5dump and h5repack are also corrected in this case.
Platforms tested: fuss, copper, sol.(There're some failures from the recent configure
change).
Misc. update: Information in the RELEASE.txt.
Description: Removed PABLO from the source
Solution:
Platforms tested: arabica with 64-bit, copper with parallel,
heping with GNU C and C++ and PGI fortran (but
I disabled hl, there is some weird problem only
on heping: F9XMODFLAG is not
propagated to the Makefile files
Misc. update:
Description: Start to support software conversion between long double and
all integers.
Solution: No major changes to the algorithm. Changes to configure is to
exclude SGI for long double to integers test because there're too many problems
in their compiler.
Platforms tested: h5committest, modi4, fuss, Teragrid, arabica
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
