Bug fix
Description:
The GASS VFL driver header file was bringing in the <string.h> header file,
which several other source code modules needed also, but weren't including
explicitly themselves.
Solution:
Add includes for <string.h> to files which actually need them.

feature
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.

Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
when specifying both an input object e.g -f mydset:GZIP=1 and a defined chunk -l CHUNK=20x20
the filter used a defined default chunk instead
Solution:
add a check for the input chunk

Misc. update:
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:
bug fix, new feature
Description:
fixed bug in the parse function:
cases where we have an already inserted name but there is a new name also
example:
-f dset1:GZIP=1 -l dset1,dset2:CHUNK=20x20
dset1 is already inserted, but dset2 must also be (it was not)
added a CHECK_SZIP symbol to enable/disable checking of library related szip parameters
added the print of the filter name in verbose mode (confirms visually that the filter was applied )

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
Solution:
Platforms tested:

Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:

as well as gcc.

the empty space. it works

Misc. update:
new tests for h5repack
Description:
added tests that do layout type to layout type conversion in a matrix of 9 between compact, contiguous and chunking
Solution:
Platforms tested:

afs has problems; I could not telnet to sol and copper, arabica is really slow (meaning
waiting 1 minute for a typed character) and the writing of a file gave an error
arabica 181% afs: failed to store file (145)
afs: failed to store file (145)
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
the synntax of the input of h5repack conatined double quotes and spaces, which
were causing problems on the parsing in AIX paralell
Solution:
replaced the spaces by =
that is, instead of -f "GZIP 6"
we have now
-f GZIP=6
Platforms tested:

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 )
Misc. update:
bug fix in H5Zshuffle.c
add more tests to h5repack that exposed the bug
Description:
when creating a dataset with the shuffle filter and duplicating it in a new dataset (file)
the call to H5Z_set_local_shuffle failed. this is because the value of cd_nelmts of the filter
structure is set to 1 (H5Z_SHUFFLE_TOTAL_NPARMS) when the original dataset is created, but when
the new dataset is created there is a checking instruction that fails if the value of
cd_nelmts is not 0 (its original value, H5Z_SHUFFLE_USER_NPARMS)
Solution:
just remove that check condition, since the value of cd_nelmts is not used anyway.
if we decide that the value of cd_nelmts is necessary, then the H5O_pline_copy function
must be changed to update this value (a different update for each filter)

Misc. update:
