[svn-r16815] Description:
Added member function Attribute::getInMemDataSize(), which is a wrapper of several C calls, to simplify getting the attribute's data size in memory. Used this new function in Attribute::read to get the fixed-len string attribute data. Added to tests in tattr.cpp. Platforms tested: Linux/32 2.6 (jam) FreeBSD/64 6.3 (liberty) SunOS 5.10 (linew)
