Fix for Bug1975 h5diff - support recursive comparison on group when specified as an object
Description:
Merged from hdf5 trunk (r19400).
Compare member objects and groups recursively when two files or groups are specified to be compared. Support parallel diff and handling symbolic links accordingly.
Tested:
jam, amani
Description:
This checkin includes updates to Windows test scripts for h5copy, h5diff, and h5dump tools. Each represents minor changes to syntax which emulates the updates made to the general-platform test scripts.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
Description:
The test files used for the h5diff test script were recently moved to a new directory, and the format of the testing was changed. This checkin brings the changes to Windows as well.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
Description:
A new parameter was added to h5diff recently. We add a new test to the h5diff script, and change the syntax in which h5diff is called from the h5repack test script
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
Description:
In previous versions of Windows, the builtin 'FC' command (diff equivalent) didn't return proper exit status. As a work-around, we parsed the message returned to check status. This relies on English return messages.
In current Windows XP and Windows Vista, FC will return exit status as expected, so we can remove this workaround. Older platforms where we would need this workaround are no longer supported.
Tested:
VS2005 on Windows XP
Small test on Windows Vista
Description:
Minor changes were recently made in the linux test scripts for h5diff and h5repack. This brings Windows up-to-date.
Note: I am still working on updates to testh5ls.bat-- there is one test that is failing, but should be ready soon.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
Description:
Recently, the format of parameters for h5diff was changed. This checkin makes the neccessary changes for Windows to also bring it up to date.
Tested:
VS6 on WinXP
