* commit 'efa2a470c9d8cf2d584f6b22f5b80cd6687887d0': (36 commits) Merge fix HDFFV-9724 1_10 branch has a different number HDFFV-9724 Merge vds prefix from develop reverted changes from sync Snapshot version 1.11 release 1 Fix valgrind issues HDFFV-9724 init var to null HDFFV-9724 add valgrind ENV Fix memory leak due to addition of FORMAT check loop HDFFV-9724 prefix of 0 length should be null value HDFFV-9724 Corrected files and verified tests Add library INTERFACE and MPI to tools Increase maximum number of retries for h5watch tests. Revert "Merge pull request #826 in HDFFV/hdf5 from ~BYRN/hdf5_adb:develop to develop" Fix library interface commands, add missing JNI Add HD prefix HDFFV-9724 Remove VDS file cache functionality Removed incorrect MPI text Par example needs to link with mpi libs Because of MPI requirements in library ALWAYS add include path ...
