Refactor code
Description:
Refactor common code for determining the native type for using in the
tools into separate routine.
Also, reduce diffs between the two branches and bring back some fixes from
the development branch to the release branch.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)
too minor to require h5committest
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

solaris
Misc. update:
h5diff new features
Description:
added comparison for attributes
adeded comparison for all dataset datatypes
added tests for the new features
changed the output format

Platforms tested:
linux
solaris 5.7
IRIX 6.5 (64)
Misc. update:
h5diff new feature
Description:
added compare for attributes
a new options flag (-a) was added to the options structure. it is 0 by default (no compare )
the output of the compare is the same that for datasets, and all the other flags also apply for attributes
(the memory compare is done in the same function diff_array)
all the other requirements for compare of datasets (type, space) are identical too
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris 2.7
IRIX
Misc. update:
h5repack new features
Description:
added a copy routine for all types
added a copy routine for attributes
commnented some debug messages in h5trav
added the verbose option to some h5diff messages
