H5Awrite
(hid_t attr_id
,
hid_t mem_type_id
,
const void *buf
)
H5Awrite
writes an attribute, specified with
attr_id
. The attribute's memory datatype
is specified with mem_type_id
. The entire
attribute is written from buf
to the file.
If mem_type_id
is either a fixed-length or
variable-length string, it is important to set the string length
when defining the datatype.
String datatypes are derived from H5T_C_S1
(or H5T_FORTRAN_S1
for Fortran codes),
which defaults to 1 character in size.
See H5Tset_size
and “Creating
variable-length string datatypes.”
Datatype conversion takes place at the time of a read or write and is automatic. See the Data Conversion section of The Data Type Interface (H5T) in the HDF5 User's Guide for a discussion of data conversion, including the range of conversions currently supported by the HDF5 libraries.
