HDFFV-7514 - GMQS: h5dump - improve effectiveness of testing scripts for handling expected output files
Description:
Fist phase for h5dump test update. Next phase will be for h5ls.
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), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE), Cmake (jam)
Bring changes from Coverity branch back to trunk:
r19079 & 19080:
[BZ1942] h5dump -u to generate XML, it does not respect the -m option
xml version of dump_data function didn't check for use of fp_format variable.
Added new test expected file for committed bug 1942
r19103, 19104 & 19105:
[BZ1821] h5repack -v did not display correct output for a selected compression. Needed new test for comparing output of -v option.
Added new test file for solution to BZ1821
BZ1821 - Bring test changes from the shell script actually used.
Tested on:
Mac OS X/32 10.6.4 (amazon) debug & production
(h5committested on branch)
Users can create external links using H5L_create_external(). These links
point to an object in another HDF5 file. Users can alter the behavior of
external links or create new kinds of links by registering callbacks
using the H5L interface.
Added tests, tools support, etc.
Also a number of other, minor changes have been made (some restructuring of
the H5L interface, for instance).
Additional documentation and examples are forthcoming.
Bug fix - bugzilla #552

If so, skipped the test.
