HDFFV-7607: h5ls - improve efficiency of test scripts - removing top 3 extra lines from expected output files
Description:
This is a subtask from 'HDFFV-7514 - gmqs: h5dump - improve effectiveness of testing scripts for handling expected output files'.
This is prerequisite for 'HDFFV-7602 tools - upgrade tools' test scripts to share test files among tools, providing framework for test file re-usability.'
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE), Cmake (jam)
HDFFV-5948 - CHICAGO: Tools - implement missing external link test cases
Description:
Add three test cases for h5dump and h5ls.
- h5ls: external link to soft link with follow symlink.
- h5dump: external link to soft link with follow symlink.
- h5ls: external link to soft link without follow symlink.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Support follow symbolic links.
Description:
Add '--follow-symlinks' option to follow symbolic links (soft and external).
Update help page according to RM.
Remove some warning messages from compiler.
Tested:
jam, amani and linew
Description: Improved external link traversal of h5dump. h5dump will now
properly avoid all cycles, even those spanning multiple files. Improvement
to the output of committed datatypes. Committed datatypes are now checked
for uniqueness (like other objects). Tests added for these cases.
Tested: kagiso, linew, smirom (h5committest)
Description: Added -E option to h5ls. When set, this alows h5ls to enter
external files (currently only through an external link). The -r option by
itself will no longer allow h5ls to traverse external links.
Tested: kagiso, linew, smirom (h5committest)
Description: Adds capability to h5ls to traverse external links when the -r
(recursive) option is given. Changes to the way absolute path names are patched
in h5trav.c. Changes to the way recursive traversal starting from a non-root
group is handled (which also fixes some preexisting issues). Tests added for
these cases.
Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew (h5committest)
