New feature: implementation of h5import conversion of an ASCII plain-text file containing text data
The string type H5T_C_S1 is used to define the data (the datum is defined here as one line of text in the text file). The size is set to variable length (H5T_VARIABLE)
The space used is a 1D array with as many elements as there are lines in the ASCII file (a line is defined by the inclusion of an end of line character, ASCII number 10). A first traversal of the input text file must be made to determine the number of lines in the file and thus the dimensionality of the dataset.
New test to the test script added
text input files and teststr.h5 for h5dump to compare added
Tested: windows, linux, solaris

No need for h5committest - very minor
2) Removing configuration of c++/src/H5cxx_pubconf.h file.
Reasoning: the additional pubconf file caused compilation complications, this is cleaner.
Tested: kagiso, smirom
Add small interface to "wrap" a static buffer (usually on the stack), but
still allow for buffers larger than the static buffer to be allocated. This
can eliminate _many_ short-lived buffer allocations in situations where the
buffer is a predictable size (or at least a "very likely" size).
Also, some minor code cleanups, particularly in the SOHM caching code.

Description: added new configuration to generate a pubconf file

tested: kagiso, smirom
Bug fix.
Description:
The "h5dump -o ..." test generates temporay files in the testfiles of the
source code and later on remove them. This could cuase a racing condition
if more than one --srcdir build is using the same copy of the source code.
Since they use the same file name in the testfiles, they may conflict with
each other.
Solution:
Changed to generate the temporary files in the build-dir's own testfiles
directory. Since the build-dir can have different names, the CMP of expected
output now skip the first three lines which are label lines that contains
the location of the temporary.
Also removed the CREATE code since actual files created now cannot be
blindly copied to the expect files. Also, expected files should be
create by explicit action and careful inspection of files generated.
Tested platform:
Done in kagiso, both by --src-dir and in-place build.
On Windows, Mingw interprets all parameters starting with '/' as paths, and replaces the '/' with its home directory, "C:\Windows\msys\". This was a problem in h5diff tests such as:
h5diff h5diff_101.txt $FILE1 $FILE1 /g1/d1 g1/d2 -v
I've removed the leading '/', as h5diff will interpret it the same either way.

file size from MPI_File_get_size. Bypass this problem by replacing it with

Minor tunings to output verbose messages:

Eliminate storing # of links in "link info" message, regenerate it

Tested on:

Mac OS X/32 10.4.8 (amazon)
Move ref. count of # of links to an object out of the object header's
prefix and make it a header message instead (since it's a "rare" occurence),
eliminating some more space for each object in the file.
Inserting this "ref. count" message exposed a flaw in the library's
mechanism for locating a message to promote to another chunk and replace
with a continuation message, which required some additional work to fix.
It's still not completely robust, but it's working for more cases now and
detects failures robustly.
Reduced the minimum size of an object header chunk to just enough to
contain a header message prefix and continuation message.

Bug fix
Some data was declared as char and saved with H5T_NATIVE_CHAR type. But the data have negative values
Solution : declared data as signed char and used H5T_NATIVE_SCHAR
The main purpose of this checkin was to eliminate the
space used for tracking creation time indices when there is no way they
can be used (i.e. attributes can't be shared in the file and the user hasn't
turned on attribute creation tracking), however there were some other minor
changes which crept in:
- Fix a cache locking deadlock when a shared attribute and one of its
components end up in the same fractal heap direct block.
(This is fixed the "slow" way for right now, until John has time
to add support for readers/writer locking to the cache.
- Optimize attribute copying when a copy will be kept during a v2 B-tree
search.
- When freeing a block on disk, attempt to merge it with the metadata
and "small data" aggregators.

It seems that while Cygwin supports the time command, it has trouble with
the syntax
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" time ./testhdf5
and complains.
The solution is to test the above case in configure and not to use the time
command if it fails; Cygwin is fine with
srcdir="../../hdf5/test" ./testhdf5
Tested on Cygwin and kagiso. This feature shouldn't be a major compatibility
problem since every platform but Cygwin is already fine with the current
syntax.
New version of the function h5tools_dump_simple_subset, to display subsetting. The new algorithm is:
Introduced an outer loop for cases where dimensionality is greater
than 2D. In each iteration a 2D block is displayed by rows in a inner
loop. The remainning slower dimensions above the first 2 are incremented
one at a time in the outer loop
Note: when blocks are introduced, the display is not correct. This is a bug that requires an improvement of the algorithm.
modified the format for the printing of reference information for a string, related to the same change in h5dump to display the name of the referenced dataset
Fixed#720 h5dump: improve how region references are displayed. h5dump now uses the new API function H5Rget_name to display the name of the dataset referenced instead of its ID. Added a case to the script test file
fix for bugzilla bug #551
several programming errors contributed to this bug
1) the parsing of subsetting was using atoi to convert the parameter to an int,
which caused problems for numbers greater that int. Substitute with atof
2) several index counters were declared as int, use hsize_t instead
3) the numerical format passed for printf was %lu, defined one compatible with
hsize_t instead (unsigned long long)
Fix several bugs
1) the parsing of subsetting was using atoi to convert the parameter to an int, which caused problems for numbers greater that int. Substitute with atof
2) the printing of indices in the subsetting case was not being done. Solution: calculate the element position at the start of the subsetting using the algorythm
Given an index I(z,y,x) its position from the beginning of an array of sizes A(size_z, size_y,size_x) is given by
Position of I(z,y,x) = index_z * size_y * size_x
+ index_y * size_x
+ index_x
And pass that position to the function that dumps data, h5tools_dump_simple_data.
3) several index counters were declared as int, use hsize_t instead
4) modified the test generation program so that it includes test cases for subsetting of 1d, 2d, 3d, and 4d arrays and add these tests to the shell script

The version of libtool used by HDF5 isn't directly affected by the reconfigure
script; instead, libtoolize --force must be used by hand. Libtool was the
source of the problem, so rolling its version back to 1.5.14 should solve the
issue (at least temporarily).
Reconfigure should still work on both heping and kagiso.
Tested on heping, kagiso, and tg-login3.
h5repack revision:
1. added a new test due to the introduction of H5Ocopy in the copy of objects (compressed dataset with references, that still must go a second sweep of the file to be regenerated).
2. Moved all the source files from the h5repack test program to a new file h5repacktst.c and removed the old ones (testh5repack*.c).
3. Renamed the binary files from test*.h5 to h5repack*.h5 for easy reference.
4. Modified the shell script to use variables for file names instead of hard coded names
This feature is still in progress; Shared Object Header Messages are not
complete as a feature and are not thoroughly tested. There are still

1) added a new parameter to the h5diff function diff_array that contains
the beginning position of the hyperslab, so that the total position in
the array is printed correctly when reading by hyperslabs.
2) added a new test to h5diff that reads and diffs by hyperslabs. The
test reads a 1GB dataset, from which a 1KB hyperslab was written with
differences .
3) added the generation of 2 files to the generator program to test the
h5diff hyperslab read.
4) changed the h5diff binary pre-generated file names to be more
descriptive (e.g, instead of file1.h5, made it h5diff_basic1.h5)
5) changed the name of the h5repack options text file to info.h5repack
1. bug fix. the h5_cleanup file names were not build properly on the h5repacktest call
2. added only a call to test_bigout.h5 to be clean, because the other files are generated anyway by the shell script. test_bigout.h5 is only made on the C program part (h5repacktst)
Fixes for bugs 676, 228
676: both h5repack and h5diff use H5Dread. In the case of a "big"
dataset, use read/write by hyperslabs the same way h5dump uses. An
arbitrary value of 1GB was defined for "big", i.e, if the dataset is
greater than 1GB, then read/write by hyperslabs
228: use the file type in read/write by default. A new switch -n was
introduced if the user wants to use a native type, which was the
previous use by default.
Added a new test for h5repack that repacks a 1GB dataset
Tested: heping (serial, parallel), sol, copper
