Tested

added: 
./packages/format/bp1
./packages/profiling/iochrono
./packages/wan/dataman (for DataMan integration in ADIOS)

Added EnginePy as a thin manager wrapper to adios::Engine (member of
EnginePy)

Write accepts numpy arrays (ndarray) seamlessly

Write Outputs Verified with ADIOS 1.0 bpls

To do:
Advance

Continued debugging BP1 Writer for a single variable write

Fixed a number of minor things for DataMan engine. The first real-world demo code ran successfully with the AdiosPP framework

Pull request to Jason's branch

Other DataMan library dependencies must be in LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Added BP1Writer pgindex and metadata functionality. Need to hook it with
BPWriter engine 

Added complex support in ADIOS class and DataMan engine and example for
DataManWriter

Modified Makefile.libs and Makefiles in ./examples/hello/datamanReader
and ./examples/hello/datamanWriter

Need to set DATAMAN_LOC in those makefiles for local DataMan
installation.

Need to set DATAMAN_LOCATION in buildDataMan.sh for local DataMan
installation.

Run ./buildDataman.sh see contents for detailed info

see examples/hello/dataman and examples/hello/writer for working
examples

Run ./buildTest.sh to build and run Vis engine example

Corrected bugs in Group in GetDimensions functions

Reduced number of functions
Created BP1.h for common functionality and structs (with potential
reader)
Moved common functions to adiosFunctions adiosTemplates and BP1.h

To do:

Attribute var index
PG var index
Max Buffer size and transport handling

Working on writing variables to bp format

Implemented and tested hello world for dataman:
examples/hello/data/helloDataMan_OOP.cpp

Updated README.md

DataMan class implemented under include/engine/dataman and
src/engine/dataman

Implemented transport MdtmMan used by DataMan engine under
include/transport and src/transport. This will serve as the basis for
WAN transport

Modified Makefile to include DataMan paths

include/functions/bp1Write.h

Added example/hello/dataman with API examples
Changed mpidummy.h due to an error in Titan compilation with g++

This version compiles. 
Tested with 2 write APIs:

under examples/hello/singleBP
helloSingleBP.cpp -> using ADIOS single manager class from ADIOS.h
helloSingleBP.cpp -> using ADIOS objects from ADIOS_OO.h

both generate a .bp file using a POSIX transport

To do:
Test compilation in other platforms/compilers
Add coverage test cases
Add the NULL transport (does nothing)
Work on SingleBP engine to generate bp format
XML config file support (to be defined)

Transports -> defined POSIX (unbuffered), File (C FILE* buffered),
FStream (C++ fstream buffered)

Method -> defined functions to initialize a Method and Add capsule
buffers and transports

To do:
Need to work on SingleBP engine

Understanding BP file format and each record.

To do:

Move Metadata out of FStream transport. Keep it simple.
