library for it(H5ToolsFopen-takes a filename and a char ptr if you want the name of the driver)
added the function to h5tools.c, a header to h5tools.h and changed h5ls.c and h5dump.c to use the new
functions
** src/H5Tconv.c
** src/H5Tpkg.h
** src/H5Tpublic.h
The H5T_conv_struct_opt() function had a design flaw -- it
didn't keep information about the stride to use to step
through the temporary/background-value buffer and thus nested
invocations would clobber each other's temp buffers. This was
fixed by splitting the `stride' argument into `buf_stride' and
`bkg_stride' arguments for all the conversion functions. THIS
IS AN API CHANGE, but users will get a compiler warning when
they pass their conversion function pointer to H5Tregister().
** src/H5T.c
** src/H5Tprivate.h
Added a bkg_stride argument to the H5T_convert() definition in
order to fix a bug related to the optimized compound datatype
conversion function.
** src/H5T.c
** src/H5A.c
** src/H5D.c
** src/H5Ofill.c
** src/H5P.c
Added bkg_stride=0 argument to the H5T_convert() calls.
** test/dtypes.c
Added a test for the H5T_conv_struct_opt() bug fixed above.
** src/H5FL.c
The H5FL_term() function should return non-zero even when it
couldn't free all the free lists do to their being used by
some other package. When that other package terminates it
will return non-zero, causing H5FL_term() to be called
again. This fixes some of the `infinite loop closing library'
messages.
** tools/pdb2hdf
Uses print_version() instead of doing that itself.
** src/H5Ppublic.h
Renamed H5Pget_gc_reference() declaration to make it match the
definition.
** src/H5FDlog.c
Added API tracing macros.
Removed `const' qualifier from a `char*' member of a struct
which was allocated on the heap.
** src/H5TB.c
Added curly braces to a couple deeply-nested `if' statements
to make them clearer and to shut up the increadibly stupid and
just plain incorrect gcc warning about ambiguous `else'.
** test/titerate.c
Removed incomplete initialization in favor of memset() for one
auto variable to stop compiler warnings.
** tools/Depencencies
Regenerated to remove references to h5dumputil.c
conditional compile statements in the code to compile for the release.
defined a VERSION12 and VERSION13 macro. all changes were surrounded by these statements
from h5tools.h just got rid of a prototype for copy_atmoic_char which was never used
in the h5tools.c i removed the copy_atomic_char, all the display_*_data, where the * is numeric, string
or compound, the print_data, h5dump_attr. also removed a block of codfe that was surrounded by #if 0
Prints the subrelease name also.
** tools/h5tools.c
Fixed indentation problems in the first half of the file.
Changed conditional compilation style from `/*...*/' to use
#if 0/#endif in the first half of this file.
Removed some extra parentheses to make expressions more readable.
macros in the dumper. this was basically adding a space after most of the '}'.
there are some places that don't have the space because those '}' were not printed
by the end_obj macro
the header information in the dumper. the header is the part before the data
block.
in h5dump.c there is support for the new -xml option. prints the output in xml
using the structure we just defined in h5tools.h.
h5dump.h- changed the begin_obj and end_obj macros. take an extra parameter now
