For now, and compatibility, IOR options can still be set/internally accessed using the backends init_xfer_options.
This should be removed in the long run to strip away this dependency.
Changed the parser to fix#98. Does _not_ yet have the HDF5 backend args updated. They were reverted to allow this to make the 3.2 release and should be re-applied as a separate commit.
The parser now supports concurrent parsing of all plugin options.
Moved HDF5 collective_md option into the backend as an example.
Example: ./src/ior -a dummy --dummy.delay-xfer=50000
This patch enables correct compilation on both MacOS and Linux using only
POSIX.1-2008-compliant C with XSI extensions.
Specifically, POSIX.1-2008 is the minimum version because we use strdup(3);
explicit XSI is required to expose putenv from glibc.
Context: Some backends may have used different names in
the past (like IME backend use to be IM). Legacy scripts
may break.
This patch adds a legacy name option in the aiori structure.
Both name and legacy name work to select the interface.
But the following warning is printed if the legacy name is used:
ior WARNING: [legacy name] backend is deprecated use [name] instead.
