Misc. update:
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 fourth step of checkin. A test suit is added for h5repart,
including a program to generate the test files, a script file to run h5repart,
and a program to verify repartitioned files can be opened by the library.
There's a change from the first step of checkin. Family name template is no
longer saved in the superblock because different pathname can make the name
different.
In 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.

Bug fix/code cleanup
Description:
Add tests to determine that very long (64K+) object names are working.
Fixed a couple of bugs in h5dump where they weren't...

Description:
h5repack support for scaleoffset compression
Checking in early to help debug the filter.
Solution:
Added messages and command line to handle new scale offset filter.
Note: TESTS ARE DISABLED FOR NOW. The filter is not
complete, repack tests may fail due to know problems.
PLEASE DO NOT MESS WITH THE SCALEOFFSET TESTS AT THIS TIME.
They will be enabled when the filter is ready.

Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-)
Description:
Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections.
However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier
until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I
brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the
release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in
performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch,
but not the other.
I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label
"before_signed_unsigned_changes".

Bug fix (#264)
Description:
h5dump did not print attribute data in ASCII format when
-r is used.
Solution:
Added the ability to print in ASCII for Attributes Data also.
Added a test for printing Attributes with -r option.
tall-2B.ddl is the standard output for printing attributes with -r option.

Description:
the return error code for a function was not initialized.
in HP-UX it happened that this variable was initialized to -1
causing the function to return with an error condtion
solution : initialized the variable to 0
the name of the dataset was printed after the differences in verbose mode
and report when differences were found

print the name of dataset and differences
in verbose mode always print the name first

h5diff and h5repack changes
Description:
h5diff
introduced the following four modes of output:
Normal mode: print the number of differences found and where they occured
Report mode: print the above plus the differences
Verbose mode: print the above plus a list of objects and warnings
Quiet mode: do not print output (h5diff always returns an exit code of 1 when differences are found)
h5repack
added an extra parameter for SZIP filter (coding method)
the new syntax is
-f SZIP=<pixels per block,coding>
(pixels per block is a even number in 2-32 and coding method is 'EC' or 'NN')
Example of use:
./h5repack -i file1 -o file2 -f SZIP=8,NN -v
updated usage messages, test scripts and files accordingly

Misc. update:
h5repack changes
Description:
there were some requests to change some minor h5repack features
h5repack only made a warning about a non available filter in verbose mode ( -v )
without -v it kept silent, and users sometimes missed this warning
the request was that it should print this warning always. so, the new format, is e.g
./h5repack -i test_szip.h5 -o out.h5
Warning: dataset </dset_szip> cannot be read, SZIP filter is not available
due to this, and to avoid a lot of these messages in the shell test script, I modified
the script h5repack.sh so that it detects the presence of all filters in the environment
(previously it only detected SZIP)
the test files were also divided in more files , to make the script code easier to
follow

Misc. update:
Description:
the original code that showed a name for HARDLINK was reassigning that name to a name
made in the dump traversal (made by concatenation by nested objects)
Solution:

now the name showed after HARDLINK is always the first name found for that object
(this object is printed once interely; subsequent printings show the word HARDLINK
and the first name )

Description: Mainly are header message changes for dataspace. In last round
of check-in, a new header message for dataspace to created, which is not a good
way. Now, there will be no new message for dataspace, but just add the type of
dataspace in the message while increment its version number. Backward compatibility
is addressed. The attribute design is modified accordingly. Took out Null
dataspace test from tmisc.c and put it in th5s.c. These files are re-generated
since the header message has been changed.

Misc. update:
1) new function for tools library
2) new test script for h5repack
Description:
1) currently all the tools (h5dump, h5diff, etc) do not check if a filter is available
for reading some dataset that might have a filter not available on the current configuration (the behaviour
of the tools until now was to trigger a library error, saying that the dataset cannot be read
due to the lack of the filter)
Solution:
1) added a new function h5tools_canreadf that checks if a dataset can be read
depending on the availability of filters.
this function was added in calls for h5diff and h5repack.
instead of triggering the library error, a message is printed, saying that the dataset
cannot be read (the print is optional, it is on on verbose mode)
2) added a shell script that tests the commannd line tool behaviour of h5repack
the script does a series of runs of h5repack with several options on the same file (this file test4.h5
was added to the testfiles dir).
then, it runs the h5diff tool, with the input and output files , in each run.
the goal of the test is also to check item 1) . the binary file was saved with filters
that might not be available on other configurations
Platforms tested:
linux (all filters enabled)
linux (some filters disabled)
solaris (some filters disabled)
AIX (some filters disabled)
windows (all filters on and off )
