Robb Matzke 29a029d7e7 [svn-r529] Changes since 19980722
----------------------

./src/H5.c
	Handle hid_t of type H5_TEMPBUF, arguments usually called tbuf_id.

	Added array tracing where the array rank is stored in a simple
	data space.  Just use the name of the data space argument when
	declaring the array argument:

	    herr_t
	    H5Sselect_hyperslab (hid_t space_id, H5S_seloper_t op,
				 const hssize_t start[/*space_id*/],
				 const hsize_t _stride[/*space_id*/],
				 const hsize_t count[/*space_id*/],
				 const hsize_t _block[/*space_id*/])

	and when the program runs you'll see array values printed:

	    H5Sselect_hyperslab(space=218103813, op=H5S_SELECT_SET,
                                start=0xbfffef4c {0}, _stride=NULL,
                                count=0xbfffef44 {64},
				_block=NULL) = SUCCEED;

	Added more symbolic data types to the tracing output.

	Reformatted some long lines. Indented printf statements.

./tools/h5ls.c
	Fixed warnings about unsigned vs. signed comparisons.

This is hdf5-1.0.25 released on 1998-06-22 13:53 UTC
Please refer to the INSTALL file for installation instructions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release is almost fully functional for the entire API defined in the
documentation, see the RELEASE file in this directory for information
specific to this release of the library. The INSTALL file contains
instructions on compiling and installing the library. The INSTALL_parallel
file contains instructions on installing the parallel version of the
library.
Documentation for this release is in the html directory. Start with the
"index.html" in that dictectory.
Four mailing lists are currently set up for use with the HDF5
library.
hdf5 - For general discussion of the HDF5 library with
other users.
hdf5dev - For discussion of the HDF5 library development
with developers and other interested parties.
hdf5announce - For announcements of HDF5 related developments,
not a discussion list.
hdf5cvs - For checkin notices of code development on the library,
not a discussion list.
To subscribe to a list, send mail to "<list>-request@ncsa.uiuc.edu",
(e.g., hdf5-request@ncsa.uiuc.edu) with "subscribe <your e-mail
address> in the _body_ of the message. Messages to be sent to
the list should be sent to "<list>@ncsa.uiuc.edu".
Nearly daily code snapshots are now being provided at the following URL:
ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/pub/outgoing/hdf5/snapshots
Please read the readme file in that directory before working with a library
snapshot.
The HDF5 website is located at http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/
Bugs should be reported to hdfhelp@ncsa.uiuc.edu.
