1 Now IO (replaced Method) and is the factory for Variables and Engines
2 Reduced core components to user-public objects only
3 Moved and reorganized all helper functions to helper directory
4 Engines are now lightweight (except for ADIOS1Reader WIP) using MACRO
5 HF5Common and ADIOS1Common (except for Readers WIP) are now part of the toolkit so they can be reused by Engines
6 TransportMan is a new layer for transport management (file is default)
7 DataMan will be implemented under toolkit/transportman/dataman
8 Template separation (tcc and inl) applied all over the code
9 Improved Doxygen documentation

Runtime Issues:
DataMan library compilation (cacheman)
ADIOS1 Warning
TestADIOSInterfaceWrite catches exceptions

fixed a few DataMan problems caused by recent merges

Read joined arrays using ADIOS1. Depends on ADIOS1 commit d1708c3e Ma…

Fixed a compiling problem for Mac which is caused by conflicts between size_t and uint64_t

Fix hello examples

Fix hello examples with new DefineVariable() syntax, for BP, timeBP and ADIOS1. Missing HDF5 and DataMan

Move jsonhpp to thirdparty

This doesn't work across the board for json.hpp but it works for the
the way we use it.

Hdf5 updates

Some code for joined array reading in adios1 engine, incomplete. Rather should support it in adios1 itself.
Committed only to have a working Write/Read API so that we can have examples with global arrays finalized.
