compass doesn't display enum_type value as HDF5 indicates

2. Testing version: Windows version of the release candidate from S3

The HDF5 ENUM type at h5compass is treated as 2-byte signed integer. In compass you just see numbers like 0,1,2,...... The information about ENUM is lost. This is the snippet of h5dump output. I think compass can at least provide the mapping of enum to the integer number.

DATATYPE H5T_ENUM { H5T_STD_I16LE; "RED" 0; "GREEN" 1; "BLUE" 2; "YELLOW" 3; "PINK" 4; "PURPLE" 5; "ORANGE" 6; "WHITE" 7; } DATASPACE SIMPLE { ( 100, 200 ) / ( 100, 200 ) } DATA { (0,0): RED, PURPLE, BLUE, WHITE, PINK, GREEN, ORANGE, YELLOW, RED, .....

I get a crash as soon as I click on the dataset. (This is with Mac OS X 10.10). Anyone else seeing this?

On Win, I don't get a crash, but the described bug is there.
