had a wrong type
Solution: Fixed the type and changed the docs.

Misc. update:
Added the entry of document of the three basic performance tools.
The information was provided by Robb long time ago.
Platforms tested:
Viewed by IE.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup, etc.
Description:
Generalize Ray's datatype fixes to handle packing compound datatypes which
are the base type of an array or variable-length type, etc.
Also track "packedness" of a compound datatype from it's creation, instead
of only setting the 'packed' flag after the datatype was explicitly packed.
Updated docs to reflect that a compound datatype is allowed to grow (but
not shrink).

FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)

Bug Fix and code cleanup
Description:
Correct error in H5T_detect_class that was causing nested compound datatypes
with to not detect the datatype class of fields correctly, which caused errors
with fill-values, variable-length datatypes and chunks later on.
Return the rank of the array datatype from H5Tget_array_dims(), like
H5Sget_dims().
Lots of cleanups to datatype code, to make the handling of arrays, compound
types, variable-length strings and sequences and enumerated types more
consistent and robust.

h5committest
Purpose:
Enhanced indexing; copy edits.
Description:
Restructured index and clarify descriptions and/or make them more
parallel; added link to "Other tools"
Added note that h4toh5 and h5toh4 are no longer part of the HDF5 library
distribution
Lots of copy edits

Bug fix
Description:
H5Gget_objname_by_idx should allow NULL for the 'name' parameter, to allow
for querying for the name's length.
Solution:
Allow NULL for the 'name' parameter, the internal functions were already
ready to handle that case.
Clean up RM information about H5Gget_objname_by_idx and
H5Gget_objtype_by_idx also.

Purpose:
Renamed old "HDF5 User's Guide" as "HDF5 User's Guide, Release 1.4.5".
Added navigation bar link to new user's guide on HDF server.

These documents include discussions of SZIP, generic properties,
the shuffle algorithm and its influence on performance, fill values
and space allocation, and error detection.
