C++ APIs
--------
- -
+ - Due to the change in the C API, the overloaded functions of
+ PropList::setProperty now need const for some arguments. They are
+ planned for deprecation and are replaced by new versions with proper
+ consts. (PR #344 -BMR, 2017/03/20)

+ - The problem where a user-defined function cannot access both, attribute
+ and dataset, using only one argument (HDFFV9920) is now fixed.
