Enumeration Type Documentation

◆ H5G_obj_t

enum H5G_obj_t

An object has a certain type. The first few numbers are reserved for use internally by HDF5. Users may add their own types with higher values. The values are never stored in the file – they only exist while an application is running. An object may satisfy the ‘isa’ function for more than one type.

Deprecated:
Enumerator
H5G_UNKNOWN 

Unknown object type

H5G_GROUP 

Object is a group

H5G_DATASET 

Object is a dataset

H5G_TYPE 

Object is a named data type

H5G_LINK 

Object is a symbolic link

H5G_UDLINK 

Object is a user-defined link

◆ H5G_storage_type_t

Types of link storage for groups

Enumerator
H5G_STORAGE_TYPE_UNKNOWN 

Unknown link storage type

H5G_STORAGE_TYPE_SYMBOL_TABLE 

Links in group are stored with a "symbol table" (this is sometimes called "old-style" groups)

H5G_STORAGE_TYPE_COMPACT 

Links are stored in object header

H5G_STORAGE_TYPE_DENSE 

Links are stored in fractal heap & indexed with v2 B-tree
