Purpose: Maintenance
Description: There was an old h5import (h5import.c) tool in the misc directory.
The tool created 8-bit integer datasets , it was never tested and/or
supported.
Solution: We decided to rename old h5import.c to h5createU8.c. The new name reflects what
actually old tool does. New executable h5createU8 is built in the misc directory.
h5import.c file (old one) is still in the misc directory, but h5import executable
is not built. (Sorry if I confused you!)
Platforms tested: vebena, arabica, modi4 were tested
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Old setup put $(srcdir)/h5redeploy in the install list but this
same list is used for clean too, thus the file is removed from
source. That is bad.
Solution:
Set it to use a cp to do it. Need to change the source version
name to something else because for one, it is confusing to use
the same name. For another, if the build is done in place (i.e.,
not using --srcdir), the source file is removed, again.
So, renamed it with the .in suffix. Who knows, it may take
more processing than just cp when more features are added to it.
Platforms tested:
Eirene
Code Movement
Description:
Moved the tools into their own separate directories (except for these
small tools which are REALLY small, not tested, or documented,
really...They just get put into the misc/ directory).
Platforms tested:
Linux and Kelgia
