- CMake option to use AEC (open source SZip) library instead of SZip
The open source AEC library is a replacement library for SZip. In
- order to use it for hdf5 the libaec CMake source was changed to add
- "-fPIC" and exclude test files. Autotools does not build the
- compression libraries within hdf5 builds. New option USE_LIBAEC is
