[svn-r15991] Merge with 1.8 rev 15969
Introduced a new feature in the tools library regarding command line parsing In the definition of arguments, an "*" means that the switch can or can not have an optional argument. This "*" is put in the code regarding the letter definition, and it is transparent to the user (e.g b* instead of the previous b: ), where ":" notes a required argument after the letter (and no ":" or "*" notes no argument, mandatory) Used for the h5dump binary option -b It can be now 1) -b (defaults to NATIVE) 2) - b NATIVE 3) - b FILE 4) -b LE 5) -b BE Note: the keyword NATIVE replaces MEMORY This feature (-b with no argument) was tested with the sequence of h5dump to binary (NATIVE) then h5import to generate an HDF5 file from the binary file and h5diff to compare the 2 HDF5 files Tested: linux
