Please see The HDF Group's new Support Portal for the latest information.
The programming model for creating and accessing a file is as follows:
1. Set up an access template object to control the file access mechanism.
2. Open the file.
3. Close the file.
Each process of the MPI communicator creates an access template and sets it up with MPI parallel access information. This is done with the H5Pcreate / h5pcreate_f call to obtain the file access property list and the H5Pset_fapl_mpio / h5pset_fapl_mpio_f call to set up parallel I/O access.
Following is example code for creating an access template in HDF5:
C: 23 MPI_Comm comm = MPI_COMM_WORLD; 24 MPI_Info info = MPI_INFO_NULL; 25 26 /* 27 * Initialize MPI 28 */ 29 MPI_Init(&argc, &argv); 30 MPI_Comm_size(comm, &mpi_size); 31 MPI_Comm_rank(comm, &mpi_rank); 32 33 /* 34 * Set up file access property list with parallel I/O access 35 */ 36 plist_id = H5Pcreate(H5P_FILE_ACCESS); 37 H5Pset_fapl_mpio(plist_id, comm, info); FORTRAN90: 23 comm = MPI_COMM_WORLD 24 info = MPI_INFO_NULL 25 26 CALL MPI_INIT(mpierror) 27 CALL MPI_COMM_SIZE(comm, mpi_size, mpierror) 28 CALL MPI_COMM_RANK(comm, mpi_rank, mpierror) 29 ! 30 ! Initialize FORTRAN interface 31 ! 32 CALL h5open_f(error) 33 34 ! 35 ! Setup file access property list with parallel I/O access. 36 ! 37 CALL h5pcreate_f(H5P_FILE_ACCESS_F, plist_id, error) 38 CALL h5pset_fapl_mpio_f(plist_id, comm, info, error)
