Purpose:
Testing
Description:
The h5ls test script only looked at exit status.
Solution:
Created expected output files and compare actual output
with expected output.
Platforms tested:
i686-pc-linux
New tests
Description:
Added a new test file (tsaf.h5) for h5dump and h5ls. The test file was
created by lib SAF team. This file used to cause previous version
of hdf5 tools to core dump.
tsaf.ddl is the expected output from h5dump.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64 -64, linux
Bug fix (ID 419)
Description:
Converted strings class types (in dataset and attributes) to
HDF4 type of DFNT_INT8. Should have been DFNT_CHAR type.
Solution:
h5toh4.c:
Changed the HDF4 type from DFNT_INT8 to DFNT_CHAR type.
Converted all hdf5 strings (be it NULLTERM, NULLPAD, SPACEPAD)
all to fixed width space padded HDF4 DFNT_CHAR.
testh5toh4:
Added the testing of $HDF_NOCLEANUP before cleaning away the result files.
testfiles/Expected/tattr.hdf:
testfiles/Expected/tstr.hdf:
testfiles/Expected/tstr2.hdf:
Updated with the corrected DFNT_CHAR type.
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7, Linux, Irix 6.5.
Purpose:
add h4toh5 converter source codes under tools directory.
Description:
this is the expected hdf5 result for h4toh5 converter.

[details about the changes, algorithm, etc...]
[Please as detail as you can since your own explanation is
better than others guessing it from the code.]
Platforms tested:
[machines you have tested the changed version. This is absolute
important. Test it out on at least two or three different platforms
such as Big-endian-32bit (SUN/IRIX), little-endian-32(LINUX) and
64-bit (IRIX64/UNICOS/DEC-ALPHA) would be good.]

macros in the dumper. this was basically adding a space after most of the '}'.
there are some places that don't have the space because those '}' were not printed
by the end_obj macro
