Description:
- Changed DataType::operator= to simply copy the id of rhs instead of
calling H5Tcopy because, when the operator= is invoked, a different
datatype id is created and it won't have the same characteristics as
rhs', specifically, if the rhs represents a named datatype, "this"
would still be a transient datatype.
- Added a DataType constructor that takes a PredType object, and this
constructor will cause H5Tcopy to generate another datatype id, from a
predefined datatype.
- Fixed various mistakes in tests.
Platforms tested:
Linux/64 (platypus)
Linux/32 2.6 (jam/gnu and jam/icc 15)
SunOS 5.11 (emu development/production)
- Added wrappers to H5Object for H5Iget_name() to get object's name
ssize_t getObjName(char *obj_name, size_t buf_size = 0) const;
ssize_t getObjName(H5std_string& obj_name, size_t len = 0) const;
H5std_string getObjName() const;
- Added tests tobject.cpp
- Added to various cleanup_* functions in tests to remove generated files
- Added an overload H5I_type_t getHDFObjType() to get object's type
Platforms tested:
Linux/ppc64 (ostrich)
Linux/32 2.6 (jam)
SunOS 5.11 (emu) with gmake
