Moved CheckBufferAllocation to functions/adiosFunctions.h to make it
available to all engines

Added MethodPy in Python bindings, SetParameters and AddTransports use
raw functions to accept any number of arguments in the form of a
dictionary. Tested with test_hello.py

Started implementation of bindings/python using boost::python
Modified Makefile to allow for dynamic library compilation

To do:
Work on time aggregation

Changed FD and FP to FileDescriptor and FilePointer, respectively.

Added Profiler class based on chronos header for high resolution time
information in buffering and transport open, write, close

Tests with bpls indicate that variable payloads are recognized

Renamed BPWriter engine to BPFileWriter

Changed WriteVariableIndex function in BP1Writer to only include a
capsule::STLVector as buffers, other capsules will need to get it from
this heap buffer.

To do:
add profiling info (time)

Now printing last variable values with bpls. 

Need to fix so payload offset is set for all variables correctly. 

Replaced vectors with map containers for Variables to avoid iterator
invalidation when adding element to a container. 

Metadata is correctly interpreted by ADIOS 1.0 bpls

To do:
Need to debug values from bpls -d option

Now able to retrieve minifooter, PG count and length

Continued debugging BP1 Writer for a single variable write

Fixed a number of minor things for DataMan engine. The first real-wor…

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

bug version for debugging

In ADIOS.h set default engine type according to access mode to BPWriter
(w) and BPReader (r).

Adde buildBP.sh for automatic test of examples/hello/bpWriter (bpReader
next)
 

DataMan (ZmqMan) example worked for streaming data

fixed a few compile problems in DataMan engine. Worked with the newes…

examples/hello/bpWriter working

To do:

BPReader examples and BP1Reader class

Pull request to Jason's branch

data streamed through DataMan successfully, example app works

DataMan integration
