Code cleanup
Description:
Remove various "fixtype" routines which duplicate (and actually pre-date)
the functionality in H5Tget_native_type in favor of having the tools call
H5Tget_native_type(). This provides the same functionality (actually better
functionality, since the old "fixtype" routines didn't handle alignment of
compound fields correctly) and reduces the amount of code to maintain.
Add additional tests to dump out a "complex" compound datatype which
exercises more code in the library for aligning compound fields correctly.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Purpose:
Bug Fix/Feature Add
Description:
Added new flag ("-f" and "--family") to allow user to specify which
file driver to use to open the file. If they don't specify anything,
then it defaults to the old behaviour of trying each driver in turn
until one actually opens the file.
If the driver the user specified doesn't succeed in opening the
file, then we do NOT try other file drivers.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Code Cleanup
Description:
Moved some code out which wasn't specific to the h5tools into the
h5tools_utils and h5tools_str modules. Also started on adding the
subsetting feature to the dumping.
Platforms tested:
Linux
More Subsetting
Description:
Wanted to do a check-in of the current subsetting stuff. The
command-line parsing was already in there. I now added the feature to
the h5dump_t structure and it now outputs the new SUBSET DDL stuff in
the correct format. It doesn't yet do the actual subsetting, but
we're getting there...
Platforms tested:
Linux
