/****************
  TODOs and MISSING 

1. where and how do we specify how much memory a read method can use internally. E.g. to control how big chunks it can handle. 
2. FORTRAN API: v1 API has the same names with different signatures, while the C API does this with #define-s, so
   adios_fopen() of v1 is actually adios_fopen_v1() in the compiled library. Do we need to create two separate fortran libs?
3. Option to tell somewhere: abort on error (after printing error to stderr) to help finding bugs.
