[svn-r20384] Purpose:
Fixed Bug 2184 - GMQS: h5diff - incorrect calculation code for
--use-system-epsilon option
Description:
Merged from HDF5 1.8 branch r20369.
Fixed h5diff for --use-system-epsilon option: the calculation changed
from ( |a - b| / b ) to ( |a - b| ). This was decided for better
performance and was corrected only in HDF5 trunk, so 1.8 got updated.
Also comments for equal_XXX() function were updated correctly.
Also help page and RM got updated correctly.
Also add test cases for testing the differences w/wo the option.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE)

number.

-p R, --relative=R Print difference if (|(a-b)/b| > R), R is a positive
|

number.
|
||||
--use-system-epsilon Print difference if (|a-b| > EPSILON),
|
||||
where EPSILON (FLT_EPSILON or FLT_EPSILON) is the
|
||||
system epsilon value.
|
||||
If the system epsilon is not defined, use the value
|

below:
|
||||
--use-system-epsilon Print difference if (|a-b| > EPSILON), EPSILON is
|
||||
a system epsilon value.
|
||||
The system epsilon values are defined as below:
|
||||
FLT_EPSILON = 1.19209E-07 for float
|
||||
DBL_EPSILON = 2.22045E-16 for double
|
||||
-d, -p, and --use-system-epsilon options are used for
|
||||
comparing floating point values.
|
||||
By default, strict equality is used. Use -p or -d to
|
||||
set specific tolerance.
|
||||
--exclude-path "path" Exclude the specified path to an object when
|
||||
comparing files or groups. If a group is excluded,
|
||||
all member objects will also be excluded.
