Adding metadata m_SerialSize in CGroup for potential preallocation of
serialized metadata.

Removing any template functionality. Incompatible with C and Fortran
support with void*.

Need to work on tracking milestones.

Modified CGroup.m_Variable to allow for Global Dimensions and Offsets
and const members at creation

Modified CGroup member functions to allow creating new Variables and
Attributes

Added a C-API test case ./examples/hello/C/helloFStream.c


To do:

Need to test C-API and new CGroup

Added CCFLAG -Woverloaded-virtual in Makefile. It was on in a MAC
systems (maybe CLANG?), off in Ubuntu.  

Testing sending buffers from all to rank=0

Added files include/public/ADIOS_C.h, src/public/ADIOS_C.cpp (with
std::exception handling), examples/hello/helloADIOS_C.c (not yet tested)

Working on CFStream.cpp testing vector<char> as buffer

Need to define types supported for C++, C, Fortran

Need to defined XML specs


To do:

Test added file examples/hello/helloADIOS_C.c

Test class CFStream implementation assuming MPI

Decongest CGroup for Variable creation and value setting

Partial testing and debug of XML read implementation to allow "< >" in
names. Required to allow STL containers as types (e.g.
"vector<double>").

Back to std::shared_ptr in CGroup members. std::make_pair calls the copy
constructor by default. Will keep track of std::shared_ptr counts.

Added more checks for debug version to guarantee exceptions.

To do: 
Add and test more types.
Add Capsule class and support.

Changes in CVariable and CVariableTemplate:
Replace CVariable with CVariableBase
Replace CVariableTemplate<> (it's obvious) with CVariable<>

Added file functions/GroupFunctions.cpp for helper functions to
decongest CGroup, especially those related to variable and transport
selections from lookup table structs (see SSupport.h).

Added exception to "using" in doc/CodingGuidelines

Switched all shared_ptr in CGroup members to the more restrictive
unique_ptr

To-do:
Modify CGroup and SetMembers in ADIOSFunctions so groupName is
identified before CGroup. This will allow an emplace on m_Groups map for
unique_ptr.

Added: m_HostLanguage as const reference (need to use move constructor,
not copy when inserting to map).

Modified: m_Attributes is now a map

Testing VariableTemplate Get and Set

Worked with int* and std::vector<int> (not need to pass a size with
vector)

To do:
Add variable Support for CGroup::SetVariable function
Add SSupport Datatypes as a function of host language.
Test "vector<int>" < > in XML Config file

Must use polymorphism of the CVariable class with Get and Set? 
Union should be avoided as it doesn't preserve actual memory size of
variable type (always returns the largest).

Resolve Conflixt
	doc/Doxyfile

Added ./examples/hello/helloFStream.cpp and Modified Makefile to test
Hello in ADIOS Write function

Added more context in ./doc/CodingGuildelines and README files

Changed definition of Variable and VariableTemplate to always allow a
void* type. Might be a better way?


To do:
Test void* to int* or double* conversion
Test check for "<>" in XML Config file

Changed ./public/mpidummy.c to ./public/mpidummy.cpp

Corrected a bug in ADIOSFunctions.cpp InitXML function, string
xmlFileContent was created twice

Need to test the XML parser: ADIOSFunctions.cpp GetSubtring function to
support > in tag attributes, e.g. name="<myname>" >

transform classes (e.g. NetCDF4, PHDF5, BZIP2, etc.)
Added debug mode member variable in ADIOS, CGroup classes for additional
checking, expect slower code.

Changed Doxyfile to print inclusion diagrams
Reorganized code to allow mpidummy.h inclusion replacing mpi.h for
single source object.

1) Eliminated MPI and NonMPI separate functions and Transports

2) All Transport classes extend CTransport

3) Using mpidummy.h header for non-mpi compilation. Will need to include
it in the adios namespace (currently C)


To do:
Makefile
Hello all Transports
BP File

Added Transform Classes headers, need to implement


Need to modify Makefile to account for transform directories under
/include and /src

Changed Monitor function in ADIOS and Group so it can take an ostream
Edited Makefile to allow nompi and full libraries 
Edited ./doc/Doxyfile to include more graphs

Warning: Makefile only compiling for all, not nompi or mpi

in this class.

2. Added functions in CGroup and CADIOS that can be called from the XML
and non-XML APIs. User only interacts with CADIOS public functions.

3. Modified Makefile to test helloADIOS_nompi.

4. Tested population of Group and Variable classes from XML file

To do:
1) Wrap setting transport 
2) Test hello adios mpi

functions needed by ADIOS.h. In the future will reduce compilation
times.

Implemented m_Globals population. Switched unique_ptr to shared_ptr to
allow for copyable classes in empty SGlobal in m_Globals map value. 

Reached the part in which XML tag fields and values are extracted.

To do:
Populate m_Groups from these fields and values.

Reading XML file to populate Group structs

To do:

Formulate Transport and Transform classes

targets mpi and nompi

Used ./example/hello to test libraries

Updated README.md and ./examples/hello/README

To do:
1) Test Makefile with and without MPI

2) Added more info to CodingGuidelines

3) Added SMetadata.h file

1) Doxygen file
2) Coding Guidelines document

1. CADIOS parent class
2. Heat Transfer test case
