Fix for HDFFV-7835 h5diff: incorrect result for comparing the two same type symlinks as dangling links.
Description:
When two symbolic dangling links are compared with --follow-symlinks option,
the result should be same. It works for comparing two files, but didn't work
for comparing two objects.
Test cases were added and tagged with jira#.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE cmake), Cmake (jam)
Fix for HDFFV-7836 h5diff: displays error stack message for comparing the two dangling symlink with follow-symlinks option
Description:
While ago, to improve performance, skipping same object checking
(h5tools_is_obj_same()) was added.
However the checking function doesn't understand about the dangling link and
caused the issue.
Since handling dangling link code section already implemented, move the
checking function after handling dangling-links to address the problem.
Test was added and tagged with jira#.

HDFFV-7770 - h5diff segmentation fault on JPSS files

rank, along with '-c' option to display details.

HDFFV-7693 - h5diff produces different behavior between versions: 1.8.3 and 1.8.6
Description:
There were two issues on this.
One was not displaying all the comparable objects if non-comparable
object/attribute exist and compared before comparables ones. This issue
occurred after 1.8.4 release. This is the issue from user.
The other issue was not displaying all the comparable attributes,
if non-comparable object/attribute exist and compared ahead. This issue
were exist even before 1.8.4 release. So it's possible some attribute
comparison may have not displayed correctly in the past, if non-comparable
data were exist in common object.
Fixed h5diff to display all the comparable object and attribute regardless
of non-comparables.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Cmake (jam, Windows)
Add test cases for HDFFV-7656 - "--delta=something" considers two NaN of the same type are different.
The fix was added (r21105) before but test cases were incorrectly added and missing for cmake script.

Work for HDFFV-7600 - GMQS: h5diff - argument options -d, -p and --use-system-epsilon should be mutually exclusive.
Description:
Fixed h5diff to display instructive error message and exit with 1
when mutually exclusive options (-d, -p and --use-system-epsilon)
are used together.

- HDFFV-5928 - GMQS: h5diff problem and improvement on comparsing the same objects
Description:
Fixed:
1) adding h5tools_is_obj_same() function to check if two given IDs or paths point to the same object. This function can be very useful for other tools and applications.
2) using h5tools_is_obj_same() at h5diff() and diff() in h5diff.c. If two paths point to the same object, there is no need to check the details of the object since we know there is no difference. The fix will increase the performance by skipping the content comparison. It also fixed the problem of reporting difference for some cases of comparing the same file, e.g. empty files or files with incomparable objects the same file.
Test update:
Updat prvious test cases (171, 172, 530) affected by this fix, so they
still perfrom originally intended testing without bypassing.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), cmake
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)
Fixed CHICAGO: Bug 2121 - h5diff - incorrect and lack of output for the
different set of attributes (different number and names)
Description:
Previously h5diff compared attributes correctly only when two objects have
the same number of attributes and attribute names are identical.
This fix covers all other cases.
Also didn't display useful information about attribute difference.
This fixes both issues.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Fixed h5diff to handle variable-length strings in a compound dataset
correctly. Also variable-length string array in a compound dataset.
Bug #1989.
Description:
Garbage values were displayed when h5diff compared variable-length
strings (or string array) in a compound type dataset.

Add extra test cases for bug1975 h5diff - support recursive comparison on group when specified as an object.
Description:
Additional tests for combination of group recursive and --follow-symlinks
with multi-linked external links with several files (same name/strucure).
Tested:
jam, amani, heiwa
Add --exclude-path option
Description:
Specified path to an object will be excluded from comparing the two files or two groups. If group is specified all the member objects will be excluded.

Fix for Bug1975 h5diff - support recursive comparison on group when specified as an object
Description:
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, heiwa
Corrected use/name of source folder aliases.
Duplicated FindMPI.cmake so that non-c++ compiler is found first (recommemded commands did not work).
Tested: local linux with mpich
Rename '--follow-links' to '--follow-symlinks'
Description:
The '--follow-links' option is to follow symbolic links (soft and external).
Make the name more intuitive and specific to the feature.
