+ *
+ * The \c dirty_bytes_threshold field does not appear in \c H5C_auto_size_ctl_t,
+ * as synchronization between caches on different processes is handled at the \c
+ * H5AC level, not at the level of \c H5C. Note however that there is
+ * considerable interaction between this value and the other fields in this
+ * structure.
+ *
+ * Similarly, the \c open_trace_file, \c close_trace_file, and \c
+ * trace_file_name fields do not appear in \c H5C_auto_size_ctl_t, as most trace
+ * file issues are handled at the \c H5AC level. The one exception is storage
+ * of the pointer to the trace file, which is handled by \c H5C.

+ * The Attribute Interface, H5A, provides a mechanism for attaching additional
+ * information to a dataset, group, or named datatype.
+ *
+ * Attributes are accessed by opening the object that they are attached to and
+ * are not independent objects. Typically an attribute is small in size and
+ * contains user metadata about the object that it is attached to.
+ *
+ * Attributes look similar to HDF5 datasets in that they have a datatype and
+ * dataspace. However, they do not support partial I/O operations and cannot be
+ * compressed or extended.

+ * The multi-file driver enables different types of HDF5 data and

+ * the HDF5 library and the application as a single virtual HDF5 file
+ * with a single HDF5 file address space. The types of data that can be
+ * broken out into separate files include raw data, the superblock,
+ * B-tree data, global heap data, local heap data, and object
+ * headers. At the programmer's discretion, two or more types of data
+ * can be written to the same file while other types of data are
+ * written to separate files.
+ *
+ * The array \p memb_map maps memory usage types to other memory usage
+ * types and is the mechanism that allows the caller to specify how
+ * many files are created. The array contains #H5FD_MEM_NTYPES entries,
+ * which are either the value #H5FD_MEM_DEFAULT or a memory usage
+ * type. The number of unique values determines the number of files
+ * that are opened.
+ *
+ * The array \p memb_fapl contains a property list for each memory
+ * usage type that will be associated with a file.
+ *
+ * The array \p memb_name should be a name generator (a
+ * \Code{printf}-style format with a \Code{%s} which will be replaced
+ * with the name passed to H5FDopen(), usually from H5Fcreate() or

+ *
+ * The array \p memb_addr specifies the offsets within the virtual

+ * data storage begins.
+ *
+ * If \p relax is set to 1 (TRUE), then opening an existing file for

+ *
+ * If \p flag is set to \c 1, all file access operations will appear atomic, guaranteeing
+ * sequential consistency. If \p flag is set to \c 0, enforcement of atomic file access
+ * will be turned off.
+ *
+ * H5Fset_mpi_atomicity() is a collective function and all participating processes must
+ * pass the same values for \p file_id and \p flag.
+ *
+ * This function is available only when the HDF5 library is configured with parallel support
+ * (\Code{--enable-parallel}). It is useful only when used with the #H5FD_MPIO driver
+ * (see H5Pset_fapl_mpio()).
+ * \endparblock
+ *
+ * \attention
+ * \parblock
+ * H5Fset_mpi_atomicity() calls \Code{MPI_File_set_atomicity} underneath and is not supported
+ * if the execution platform does not support \Code{MPI_File_set_atomicity}. When it is
+ * supported and used, the performance of data access operations may drop significantly.
+ *
+ * In certain scenarios, even when \Code{MPI_File_set_atomicity} is supported, setting
+ * atomicity with H5Fset_mpi_atomicity() and \p flag set to 1 does not always yield
+ * strictly atomic updates. For example, some H5Dwrite() calls translate to multiple
+ * \Code{MPI_File_write_at} calls. This happens in all cases where the high-level file
+ * access routine translates to multiple lower level file access routines.
+ * The following scenarios will raise this issue:
+ * \li Non-contiguous file access using independent I/O
+ * \li Partial collective I/O using chunked access
+ * \li Collective I/O using filters or when data conversion is required
+ *
+ * This issue arises because MPI atomicity is a matter of MPI file access operations rather
+ * than HDF5 access operations. But the user is normally seeking atomicity at the HDF5 level.
+ * To accomplish this, the application must set a barrier after a write, H5Dwrite(), but before
+ * the next read, H5Dread(), in addition to calling H5Fset_mpi_atomicity().The barrier will
+ * guarantee that all underlying write operations execute atomically before the read
+ * operations starts. This ensures additional ordering semantics and will normally produce

+/**
+ * \defgroup H5G H5G
+ *
+ * \details \Bold{Groups in HDF5:} A group associates names with objects and
+ * provides a mechanism for mapping a name to an object. Since all
+ * objects appear in at least one group (with the possible exception of
+ * the root object) and since objects can have names in more than one
+ * group, the set of all objects in an HDF5 file is a directed
+ * graph. The internal nodes (nodes with out-degree greater than zero)
+ * must be groups while the leaf nodes (nodes with out-degree zero) are
+ * either empty groups or objects of some other type. Exactly one
+ * object in every non-empty file is the root object. The root object
+ * always has a positive in-degree because it is pointed to by the file
+ * super block.
+ *
+ * \Bold{Locating objects in the HDF5 file hierarchy:} An object name
+ * consists of one or more components separated from one another by
+ * slashes. An absolute name begins with a slash and the object is
+ * located by looking for the first component in the root object, then
+ * looking for the second component in the first object, etc., until
+ * the entire name is traversed. A relative name does not begin with a
+ * slash and the traversal begins at the location specified by the
+ * create or access function.
+ *
+ * \Bold{Group implementations in HDF5:} The original HDF5 group
+ * implementation provided a single indexed structure for link
+ * storage. A new group implementation, in HDF5 Release 1.8.0, enables
+ * more efficient compact storage for very small groups, improved link
+ * indexing for large groups, and other advanced features.
+ *
+ * \li The \Emph{original indexed} format remains the default. Links
+ * are stored in a B-tree in the group’s local heap.
+ * \li Groups created in the new \Emph{compact-or-indexed} format, the
+ * implementation introduced with Release 1.8.0, can be tuned for
+ * performance, switching between the compact and indexed formats
+ * at thresholds set in the user application.
+ * - The \Emph{compact} format will conserve file space and processing
+ * overhead when working with small groups and is particularly
+ * valuable when a group contains no links. Links are stored
+ * as a list of messages in the group’s header.
+ * - The \Emph{indexed} format will yield improved
+ * performance when working with large groups, e.g., groups
+ * containing thousands to millions of members. Links are stored in
+ * a fractal heap and indexed with an improved B-tree.
+ * \li The new implementation also enables the use of link names consisting of
+ * non-ASCII character sets (see H5Pset_char_encoding()) and is
+ * required for all link types other than hard or soft links, e.g.,
+ * external and user-defined links (see the \ref H5L APIs).
+ *
+ * The original group structure and the newer structures are not
+ * directly interoperable. By default, a group will be created in the
+ * original indexed format. An existing group can be changed to a
+ * compact-or-indexed format if the need arises; there is no capability
+ * to change back. As stated above, once in the compact-or-indexed
+ * format, a group can switch between compact and indexed as needed.
+ *
+ * Groups will be initially created in the compact-or-indexed format
+ * only when one or more of the following conditions is met:
+ * \li The low version bound value of the library version bounds property
+ * has been set to Release 1.8.0 or later in the file access property
+ * list (see H5Pset_libver_bounds()). Currently, that would require an
+ * H5Pset_libver_bounds() call with the low parameter set to
+ * #H5F_LIBVER_LATEST.\n When this property is set for an HDF5 file,
+ * all objects in the file will be created using the latest available
+ * format; no effort will be made to create a file that can be read by
+ * older libraries.
+ * \li The creation order tracking property, #H5P_CRT_ORDER_TRACKED, has been
+ * set in the group creation property list (see H5Pset_link_creation_order()).
+ *
+ * An existing group, currently in the original indexed format, will be
+ * converted to the compact-or-indexed format upon the occurrence of
+ * any of the following events:
+ * \li An external or user-defined link is inserted into the group.
+ * \li A link named with a string composed of non-ASCII characters is
+ * inserted into the group.
+ *
+ * The compact-or-indexed format offers performance improvements that
+ * will be most notable at the extremes, i.e., in groups with zero
+ * members and in groups with tens of thousands of members. But
+ * measurable differences may sometimes appear at a threshold as low as
+ * eight group members. Since these performance thresholds and criteria
+ * differ from application to application, tunable settings are
+ * provided to govern the switch between the compact and indexed
+ * formats (see H5Pset_link_phase_change()). Optimal thresholds will
+ * depend on the application and the operating environment.
+ *
+ * Future versions of HDF5 will retain the ability to create, read,
+ * write, and manipulate all groups stored in either the original
+ * indexed format or the compact-or-indexed format.

+ * paragraph illustrates one step-by-step method for verifying the
+ * existence of a link with a relative or absolute path.
+ *
+ * \Bold{Example:} Use the following steps to verify the existence of
+ * the link \c datasetD in the \c group group1/group2/softlink_to_group3/,
+ * where \c group1 is a member of the group specified by \c loc_id:
+ *
+ * 1. First use H5Lexists() to verify that \c group1 exists.
+ * 2. If \c group1 exists, use H5Lexists() again, this time with name
+ * set to \c group1/group2, to verify that \c group2 exists.
+ * 3. If \c group2 exists, use H5Lexists() with name set to
+ * \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3 to verify that
+ * \c softlink_to_group3 exists.
+ * 4. If \c softlink_to_group3 exists, you can now safely use
+ * H5Lexists() with \c name set to
+ * \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3/datasetD to verify that the
+ * target link, \c datasetD, exists.
+ *
+ * If the link to be verified is specified with an absolute path, the
+ * same approach should be used, but starting with the first link in
+ * the file’s root group. For instance, if \c datasetD were in
+ * \c /group1/group2/softlink_to_group3, the first call to H5Lexists()
+ * would have name set to \c /group1.
+ *
+ * Note that this is an outline and does not include all necessary
+ * details. Depending on circumstances, for example, you may need to
+ * verify that an intermediate link points to a group and that a soft
+ * link points to an existing target.
+ *
+ * \note The behavior of H5Lexists() was changed in the 1.10 release in the
+ * case where the root group, \c "/", is the name of the link. This
+ * change is described below:
+ * <ol>
+ * <li>Let \c file denote a valid HDF5 file identifier, and let \c lapl
+ * denote a valid link access property list identifier. A call to
+ * H5Lexists() with arguments \c file, \c "/", and \c lapl
+ * returns a positive value; in other words,
+ * \Code{H5Lexists(file, "/", lapl)} returns a positive value.
+ * In HDF5 version 1.8.16, this function returns 0.</li>
+ * <li>Let \c root denote a valid HDF5 group identifier that refers to the
+ * root group of an HDF5 file, and let \c lapl denote a valid link
+ * access property list identifier. A call to H5Lexists() with
+ * arguments c root, \c "/", and \c lapl returns a positive value;
+ * in other words, \Code{H5Lexists(root, "/", lapl)} returns a postive
+ * value. In HDF5 version 1.8.16, this function returns 0.</li>
+ * </ol>
+ * Note that the function accepts link names and path names. This is
+ * potentially misleading to callers, and we plan to separate the
+ * functionality for link names and path names in a future release.
+ *
+ * \attention H5Lexists() checks the existence of only the final element in a
+ * relative or absolute path; it does not check any other path
+ * elements. The function will therefore fail when both of the
+ * following conditions exist:
+ * - \c name is not local to the group specified by \c loc_id or,
+ * if \c loc_id is something other than a group identifier, \c name
+ * is not local to the root group.
+ * - Any element of the relative path or absolute path in name,

+ * by the numeric value of the link class identifier. An application,
+ * on the other hand, will generally use a name for a user-defined
+ * class, if for no other purpose than as a variable name. Assume,
+ * for example, that a complex link type is registered with the link
+ * class identifier 73 and that the code includes the following
+ * assignment:
+ * \code
+ * H5L_TYPE_COMPLEX_A = 73
+ * \endcode
+ * The application can refer to the link class with a term,
+ * \c H5L_TYPE_COMPLEX_A, that conveys meaning to a human reviewing
+ * the code, while HDF5 recognizes it by the more cryptic numeric
+ * identifier, 73.
+ *
+ * \attention Important details and considerations include the following:
+ * \li If you plan to distribute files or software with a
+ * user-defined link class, please contact the Help Desk at
+ * The HDF Group to help prevent collisions between \c class_id
+ * values. See below.
+ * \li As distributed with HDF5, the external link class is
+ * implemented as an example of a user-defined link class with
+ * #H5L_TYPE_EXTERNAL equal to #H5L_TYPE_UD_MIN. \c class_id in
+ * the H5L_class_t \c struct must not equal #H5L_TYPE_UD_MIN
+ * unless you intend to overwrite or modify the behavior of
+ * external links.
+ * \li H5Lregister() can be used only with link class identifiers
+ * in the user-definable range (see table above).
+ * \li The hard and soft links defined by the HDF5 library,
+ * #H5L_TYPE_HARD and #H5L_TYPE_SOFT, reside in the reserved
+ * range below #H5L_TYPE_UD_MIN and cannot be redefined or
+ * modified.
+ * \li H5Lis_registered() can be used to determine whether a desired
+ * link class identifier is available. \Emph{Note that this
+ * function will tell you only whether the link class identifier
+ * has been registered with the installed copy of HDF5; it
+ * cannot tell you whether the link class has been registered
+ * with The HDF Group.}
+ * \li #H5L_TYPE_MAX is the maximum allowed value for a link type
+ * identifier.
+ * \li #H5L_TYPE_UD_MIN equals #H5L_TYPE_EXTERNAL.
+ * \li #H5L_TYPE_UD_MAX equals #H5L_TYPE_MAX.
+ * \li #H5L_TYPE_ERROR indicates that an error has occurred.
+ *
+ * \note \Bold{Registration with The HDF Group:}\n
+ * There are sometimes reasons to take a broader approach to registering
+ * a user-defined link class than just invoking H5Lregister(). For
+ * example:
+ * \li A user-defined link class is intended for use across an
+ * organization, among collaborators, or across a community of users.
+ * \li An application or library overlying HDF5 invokes a user-defined
+ * link class that must be shipped with the software.
+ * \li Files are distributed that make use of a user-defined link class.
+ * \li Or simply, a specific user-defined link class is thought to be
+ * widely useful.
+ *
+ * In such cases, you are encouraged to register that link class with
+ * The HDF Group's Helpdesk. The HDF Group maintains a registry of known
+ * user-defined link classes and tracks the selected link class
+ * identifiers. This registry is intended to reduce the risk of
+ * collisions between \c class_id values and to help coordinate the use
+ * of specialized link classes.

+ * is a soft link to an object in a different HDF5 file from the

+ *
+ * \p file_name identifies the target file containing the target
+ * object; \p obj_name specifies the path of the target object within
+ * that file. \p obj_name must be an absolute pathname in
+ * \p file_name, i.e., it must start at the target file’s root group,
+ * but it is not interpreted until an application attempts to traverse
+ * it.
+ *
+ * \p link_loc_id and \p link_name specify the location and name,
+ * respectively, of the new link. \p link_name is interpreted relative
+ * to \p link_loc_id.
+ *
+ * \p lcpl_id is the link creation property list used in creating the
+ * new link.
+ *
+ * \p lapl_id is the link access property list used in traversing the
+ * new link. Note that an external file opened by the traversal of an
+ * external link is always opened with the weak file close degree
+ * property setting, #H5F_CLOSE_WEAK (see H5Pset_fclose_degree());
+ * any file close degree property setting in \p lapl_id is ignored.
+ *
+ * An external link behaves similarly to a soft link, and like a soft
+ * link in an HDF5 file, it may dangle: the target file and object
+ * need not exist at the time that the external link is created.
+ *
+ * When the external link \p link_name is accessed, the library will
+ * search for the target file \p file_name as described below:
+ *
+ * - If \p file_name is a relative pathname, the following steps are
+ * performed:
+ * - The library will get the prefix(es) set in the environment
+ * variable \c HDF5_EXT_PREFIX and will try to prepend each prefix
+ * to \p file_name to form a new \p file_name.
+ * - If the new \p file_name does not exist or if \c HDF5_EXT_PREFIX
+ * is not set, the library will get the prefix set via
+ * H5Pset_elink_prefix() and prepend it to \p file_name to form a
+ * new \p file_name.
+ * - If the new \p file_name does not exist or no prefix is being
+ * set by H5Pset_elink_prefix(), then the path of the file
+ * associated with \p link_loc_id is obtained. This path can be
+ * the absolute path or the current working directory plus the
+ * relative path of that file when it is created/opened. The
+ * library will prepend this path to \p file_name to form a new
+ * \p file_name.
+ * - If the new \p file_name does not exist, then the library will
+ * look for \p file_name and will return failure/success
+ * accordingly.
+ * - If \p file_name is an absolute pathname, the library will first
+ * try to find \p file_name. If \p file_name does not exist,
+ * \p file_name is stripped of directory paths to form a new
+ * \p file_name. The search for the new \p file_name then follows
+ * the same steps as described above for a relative pathname. See
+ * examples below illustrating how target_file_name is stripped to
+ * form a new \p file_name.
+ *
+ * Note that \p file_name is considered to be an absolute pathname
+ * when the following condition is true:
+ *
+ * - For Unix, the first character of \p file_name is a slash (\c /).
+ * For example, consider a \p file_name of \c /tmp/A.h5.
+ * If that target file does not exist, the new \p file_name after
+ * stripping will be \c A.h5.
+ * - For Windows, there are 6 cases:
+ * -# \p file_name is an absolute drive with absolute pathname.
+ * For example, consider a \p file_name of \c /tmp/A.h5. If that
+ * target file does not exist, the new \p file_name after
+ * stripping will be \c A.h5.
+ * -# \p file_name is an absolute pathname without specifying drive
+ * name. For example, consider a \p file_name of \c /tmp/A.h5.
+ * If that target file does not exist, the new \p file_name after
+ * stripping will be \c A.h5.
+ * -# \p file_name is an absolute drive with relative pathname.
+ * For example, consider a \p file_name of \c /tmp/A.h5. If that
+ * target file does not exist, the new \p file_name after
+ * stripping will be \c tmp\A.h5.
+ * -# \p file_name is in UNC (Uniform Naming Convention) format with
+ * server name, share name, and pathname. For example, consider
+ * a \p file_name of \c /tmp/A.h5. If that target file does not
+ * exist, the new \p file_name after stripping will be \c A.h5.
+ * -# \p file_name is in Long UNC (Uniform Naming Convention) format
+ * with server name, share name, and pathname. For example,
+ * consider a \p file_name of \c /tmp/A.h5. If that target file
+ * does not exist, the new \p file_name after stripping will be
+ * \c A.h5.
+ * -# \p file_name is in Long UNC (Uniform Naming Convention) format
+ * with an absolute drive and an absolute pathname. For example,
+ * consider a \p file_name of \c /tmp/A.h5. If that target file
+ * does not exist, the new \p file_name after stripping will be
+ * \c A.h5.
+ *
+ * The library opens target file \p file_name with the file access
+ * property list that is set via H5Pset_elink_fapl() when the external
+ * link link_name is accessed. If no such property list is set, the
+ * library uses the file access property list associated with the file
+ * of \p link_loc_id to open the target file.
+ *
+ * If an application requires additional control over file access
+ * flags or the file access property list, see H5Pset_elink_cb(); this
+ * function enables the use of an external link callback function as
+ * described in H5L_elink_traverse_t().
+ *
+ * \attention A file close degree property setting (H5Pset_fclose_degree()) in
+ * the external link file access property list or in the external
+ * link callback function will be ignored. A file opened by means of
+ * traversing an external link is always opened with the weak file
+ * close degree property setting, #H5F_CLOSE_WEAK .

+ * where \c group1 is a member of the group specified by \c loc_id:
+ *
+ * \par
+ * - First use H5Lexists() to verify that a link named \c group1 exists.
+ * - If \c group1 exists, use H5Oexists_by_name() to verify that the
+ * link \c group1 resolves to an object.
+ * - If \c group1 exists, use H5Lexists() again, this time with name
+ * set to \c group1/group2, to verify that the link \c group2 exists
+ * in \c group1.
+ * - If the \c group2 link exists, use H5Oexists_by_name() to verify
+ * that \c group1/group2 resolves to an object.
+ * - If \c group2 exists, use H5Lexists() again, this time with name
+ * set to \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3, to verify that the
+ * link \c softlink_to_group3 exists in \c group2.
+ * - If the \c softlink_to_group3 link exists, use H5Oexists_by_name()
+ * to verify that \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3 resolves to
+ * an object.
+ * - If \c softlink_to_group3 exists, you can now safely use H5Lexists
+ * with name set to \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3/datasetD to
+ * verify that the target link, \c datasetD, exists.
+ * - And finally, if the link \c datasetD exists, use H5Oexists_by_name
+ * to verify that \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3/datasetD
+ * resolves to an object.
+ *
+ * \par
+ * If the link to be verified is specified with an absolute path,
+ * the same approach should be used, but starting with the first
+ * link in the file’s root group. For instance, if \c datasetD
+ * were in \c /group1/group2/softlink_to_group3, the first call to
+ * H5Lexists() would have name set to \c /group1.
+ *
+ * \par
+ * Note that this is an outline and does not include all necessary
+ * details. Depending on circumstances, for example, an application
+ * may need to verify the type of an object also.
+ *
+ * \warning \Bold{Failure Modes:}
+ * \warning If \p loc_id and \p name both exist but the combination does not
+ * resolve to an object, the function will return 0 (zero);
+ * the function does not fail in this case.
+ * \warning If either the location or the link specified by the \p loc_id
+ * and \p name combination does not exist, the function will fail,
+ * returning a negative value.
+ * \warning Note that verifying the existence of an object within an HDF5

+ * non-recursive iteration across the members of a group,

+ *
+ * If \p obj_id is a group identifier, that group serves as the

+ *
+ * Two parameters are used to establish the iteration: \p idx_type

+ *
+ * \p idx_type specifies the index to be used. If the links in

+ * if the links have been so indexed, the sorting step will be

+ * will be iterated over in alpha-numeric order by name, or
+ * <em>name order</em>. (<em>Name order</em> is the native order
+ * used by the HDF5 library and is always available.)
+ *
+ * \p order specifies the order in which objects are to be inspected
+ * along the index specified in \p idx_type. Valid values include
+ * the following:
+ *
+ * \orders
+ *
+ * The prototype of the callback function op is as follows (as
+ * defined in the source code file H5Opublic.h):
+ *
+ * \snippet this H5O_iterate1_t_snip
+ *
+ * The parameters of this callback function have the following values
+ * or meanings:

+ * </tr>
+ * </table>
+ *
+ * The H5O_info1_t \c struct is defined in H5Opublic.h and
+ * described in the H5Oget_info1() function entry.
+ *
+ * The return values from an operator are:
+ * - Zero causes the visit iterator to continue, returning zero when all
+ * group members have been processed.
+ * - A positive value causes the visit iterator to immediately return that
+ * positive value, indicating short-circuit success.
+ * - A negative value causes the visit iterator to immediately return that
+ * value, indicating failure.
+ *
+ * The H5Ovisit2() \p op_data parameter is a user-defined pointer to the data
+ * required to process objects in the course of the iteration. This pointer
+ * is passed back to each step of the iteration in the callback
+ * function’s \p op_data parameter.
+ *
+ * The \p fields parameter contains flags to determine which fields will
+ * be retrieved by the \p op callback function. These flags are defined
+ * in the H5Opublic.h file:
+ * \obj_info_fields
+ *
+ * H5Lvisit() and H5Ovisit() are companion functions: one for
+ * examining and operating on links; the other for examining

+ * functions ensure that by the time the function completes

+ * \note <b>Filter Behavior in HDF5:</b><br />
+ * Filters can be inserted into the HDF5 pipeline to perform

+ * a very flexible aspect of HDF5; for example, a user-defined
+ * filter could provide encryption for an HDF5 dataset.
+ *
+ * \note A filter can be declared as either required or optional.
+ * Required is the default status; optional status must be
+ * explicitly declared.
+ *
+ * \note A required filter that fails or is not defined causes an
+ * entire output operation to fail; if it was applied when the
+ * data was written, such a filter will cause an input operation
+ * to fail.
+ *
+ * \note The following table summarizes required filter behavior.

+ * \note An optional filter can be set for an HDF5 dataset even when
+ * the filter is not available. Such a filter can then be
+ * applied to the dataset when it becomes available on the
+ * original system or when the file containing the dataset is
+ * processed on a system on which it is available.
+ *
+ * \note A filter can be declared as optional through the use of the
+ * #H5Z_FLAG_OPTIONAL flag with H5Pset_filter().
+ *
+ * \note Consider a situation where one is creating files that will
+ * normally be used only on systems where the optional (and
+ * fictional) filter FILTER_Z is routinely available. One can
+ * create those files on system A, which lacks FILTER_Z, create
+ * chunked datasets in the files with FILTER_Z defined in the
+ * dataset creation property list, and even write data to those
+ * datasets. The dataset object header will indicate that FILTER_Z
+ * has been associated with this dataset. But since system A does
+ * not have FILTER_Z, dataset chunks will be written without it
+ * being applied.
+ *
+ * \note HDF5 has a mechanism for determining whether chunks are
+ * actually written with the filters specified in the object
+ * header, so while the filter remains unavailable, system A will
+ * be able to read the data. Once the file is moved to system B,
+ * where FILTER_Z is available, HDF5 will apply FILTER_Z to any
+ * data rewritten or new data written in these datasets. Dataset
+ * chunks that have been written on system B will then be
+ * unreadable on system A; chunks that have not been re-written
+ * since being written on system A will remain readable on system
+ * A. All chunks will be readable on system B.
+ *
+ * \note The following table summarizes optional filter behavior.
+ * <table>
+ * <tr>
+ * <th></th>
+ * <th>FILTER_Z not available</th>

+ * The error was fixed in HDF5 Release 1.6.3.
+ *
+ * \attention As a result of this fix, an HDF5 library of Release 1.6.0
+ * through Release 1.6.2 cannot read a dataset created or written
+ * with Release 1.6.3 or later if the dataset was created with
+ * the checksum filter and the filter is enabled in the reading
+ * library. (Libraries of Release 1.6.3 and later understand the
+ * earlier error and compensate appropriately.)
+ *
+ * \attention \b Work-around: An HDF5 library of Release 1.6.2 or earlier
+ * will be able to read a dataset created or written with the
+ * checksum filter by an HDF5 library of Release 1.6.3 or later
+ * if the checksum filter is disabled for the read operation.
+ * This can be accomplished via a call to H5Pset_edc_check()
+ * with the value #H5Z_DISABLE_EDC in the second parameter.
+ * This has the obvious drawback that the application will be

+ * H5Pset_file_image_callbacks() will fail if a file image has
+ * already been set in the target file access property list, \p fapl_id.
+ *
+ * \details H5Pset_file_image_callbacks() sets callback functions for working
+ * with file images in memory.
+ *
+ * H5Pset_file_image_callbacks() allows an application to control the
+ * management of file image buffers through user defined callbacks.
+ * These callbacks can be used in the management of file image buffers
+ * in property lists and with certain file drivers.
+ *
+ * H5Pset_file_image_callbacks() must be used before any file image has
+ * been set in the file access property list. Once a file image has
+ * been set, the function will fail.
+ *
+ * The callback routines set up by H5Pset_file_image_callbacks() are
+ * invoked when a new file image buffer is allocated, when an existing
+ * file image buffer is copied or resized, or when a file image buffer
+ * is released from use.
+ *
+ * Some file drivers allow the use of user-defined callback functions
+ * for allocating, freeing, and copying the driver’s internal buffer,
+ * potentially allowing optimizations such as avoiding large \c malloc
+ * and \c memcpy operations, or to perform detailed logging.
+ *
+ * From the perspective of the HDF5 library, the operations of the
+ * \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_malloc "image_malloc",
+ * \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_memcpy "image_memcpy",
+ * \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_realloc "image_realloc", and
+ * \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_free "image_free" callbacks
+ * must be identical to those of the
+ * corresponding C standard library calls (\c malloc, \c memcpy,
+ * \c realloc, and \c free). While the operations must be identical,
+ * the file image callbacks have more parameters. The return values
+ * of \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_malloc "image_malloc" and
+ * \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_realloc "image_realloc" are identical to
+ * the return values of \c malloc and \c realloc. The return values of
+ * \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_malloc "image_malloc" and
+ * \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_free "image_free" differ from the return
+ * values of \c memcpy and \c free in that the return values of
+ * \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_memcpy "image_memcpy" and
+ * \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_free "image_free" can also indicate failure.
+ *
+ * The callbacks and their parameters, along with a struct and
+ * an \c ENUM required for their use, are described below.
+ *
+ * <b>Callback struct and \c ENUM:</b>
+ *
+ * The callback functions set up by H5Pset_file_image_callbacks() use

+ *
+ * The struct #H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t serves as a container
+ * for the callback functions and a pointer to user-supplied data.
+ * The struct is defined as follows:
+ * \snippet H5FDpublic.h H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t_snip
+ *
+ * Elements of the #H5FD_file_image_op_t are used by the

+ * defined as follows:
+ * \snippet H5FDpublic.h H5FD_file_image_op_t_snip
+ *
+ * The elements of the #H5FD_file_image_op_t are used in the following

+ * that must appear to HDF5 to have functionality identical to that
+ * of the standard C library \c memcopy() call, except that it returns
+ * a \p NULL on failure. (The \c memcpy C Library routine is defined
+ * to return the \p dest parameter in all cases.)
+ *
+ * - Setting \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.image_memcpy "image_memcpy"

+ * \n
+ * - The \ref H5FD_file_image_callbacks_t.udata_copy "udata_copy"
+ * callback contains a pointer to a function
+ * that, from the perspective of HDF5, allocates a buffer of suitable

+ *
+ * Generally speaking, scale-offset compression performs a scale and/or
+ * offset operation on each data value and truncates the resulting
+ * value to a minimum number of bits (MinBits) before storing it. The
+ * current scale-offset filter supports integer and floating-point
+ * datatypes.
+ *
+ * For an integer datatype, the parameter \p scale_type should be set
+ * to #H5Z_SO_INT (2). The parameter \p scale_factor denotes MinBits.
+ * If the user sets it to H5Z_SO_INT_MINBITS_DEFAULT (0), the filter
+ * will calculate MinBits. If \p scale_factor is set to a positive
+ * integer, the filter does not do any calculation and just uses the
+ * number as MinBits. However, if the user gives a MinBits that is less
+ * than what would be generated by the filter, the compression will be
+ * lossy. Also, the MinBits supplied by the user cannot exceed the
+ * number of bits to store one value of the dataset datatype.
+ *
+ * For a floating-point datatype, the filter adopts the GRiB data
+ * packing mechanism, which offers two alternate methods: E-scaling and
+ * D-scaling. Both methods are lossy compression. If the parameter
+ * \p scale_type is set to #H5Z_SO_FLOAT_DSCALE (0), the filter will
+ * use the D-scaling method; if it is set to #H5Z_SO_FLOAT_ESCALE (1),
+ * the filter will use the E-scaling method. Since only the D-scaling
+ * method is implemented, \p scale_type should be set to
+ * #H5Z_SO_FLOAT_DSCALE or 0.
+ *
+ * When the D-scaling method is used, the original data is "D" scaled
+ * — multiplied by 10 to the power of \p scale_factor, and the
+ * "significant" part of the value is moved to the left of the decimal
+ * point. Care should be taken in setting the decimal \p scale_factor
+ * so that the integer part will have enough precision to contain the
+ * appropriate information of the data value. For example, if
+ * \p scale_factor is set to 2, the number 104.561 will be 10456.1
+ * after "D" scaling. The last digit 1 is not "significant" and is
+ * thrown off in the process of rounding. The user should make sure that
+ * after "D" scaling and rounding, the data values are within the range
+ * that can be represented by the integer (same size as the
+ * floating-point type).
+ *
+ * Valid values for scale_type are as follows:
+ *

+ *
+ * Before proceeding, all users should review the “Limitations”
+ * section below.
+ *
+ * Users familiar with SZIP outside the HDF5 context may benefit
+ * from reviewing the Note “For Users Familiar with SZIP in Other
+ * Contexts” below.
+ *
+ * In the text below, the term pixel refers to an HDF5 data element.
+ * This terminology derives from SZIP compression's use with image
+ * data, where pixel referred to an image pixel.
+ *
+ * The SZIP \p bits_per_pixel value (see Note, below) is automatically
+ * set, based on the HDF5 datatype. SZIP can be used with atomic
+ * datatypes that may have size of 8, 16, 32, or 64 bits.
+ * Specifically, a dataset with a datatype that is 8-, 16-, 32-, or
+ * 64-bit signed or unsigned integer; char; or 32- or 64-bit float
+ * can be compressed with SZIP. See Note, below, for further
+ * discussion of the the SZIP \p bits_per_pixel setting.
+ *
+ * SZIP options are passed in an options mask, \p options_mask,
+ * as follows.
+ *
+ * <table>
+ * <tr>
+ * <th>Option</th>
+ * <th>Description (Mutually exclusive; select one.)</th>
+ * </tr>

+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td>#H5_SZIP_NN_OPTION_MASK</td>
+ * <td>Selects nearest neighbor coding method</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * </table>
+ *
+ * The following guidelines can be used in determining which
+ * option to select:
+ *
+ * - The entropy coding method, the EC option specified by
+ * #H5_SZIP_EC_OPTION_MASK, is best suited for data that has been
+ * processed. The EC method works best for small numbers.
+ * - The nearest neighbor coding method, the NN option specified
+ * by #H5_SZIP_NN_OPTION_MASK, preprocesses the data then the
+ * applies EC method as above.
+ *
+ * Other factors may affect results, but the above criteria
+ * provides a good starting point for optimizing data compression.
+ *
+ * SZIP compresses data block by block, with a user-tunable block
+ * size. This block size is passed in the parameter
+ * \p pixels_per_block and must be even and not greater than 32,
+ * with typical values being 8, 10, 16, or 32. This parameter
+ * affects compression ratio; the more pixel values vary, the
+ * smaller this number should be to achieve better performance.
+ *
+ * In HDF5, compression can be applied only to chunked datasets.
+ * If \p pixels_per_block is bigger than the total number of
+ * elements in a dataset chunk, H5Pset_szip() will succeed but
+ * the subsequent call to H5Dcreate() will fail; the conflict
+ * can be detected only when the property list is used.
+ *
+ * To achieve optimal performance for SZIP compression, it is
+ * recommended that a chunk's fastest-changing dimension be equal
+ * to N times \p pixels_per_block where N is the maximum number of
+ * blocks per scan line allowed by the SZIP library. In the
+ * current version of SZIP, N is set to 128.
+ *
+ * SZIP compression is an optional HDF5 filter.
+ *
+ * \b Limitations:
+ *
+ * - SZIP compression cannot be applied to compound, array,
+ * variable-length, enumeration, or any other user-defined
+ * datatypes. If an SZIP filter is set in a dataset creation
+ * property list used to create a dataset containing a
+ * non-allowed datatype, the call to H5Dcreate() will fail; the
+ * conflict can be detected only when the property list is used.
+ * - Users should be aware that there are factors that affect one’s
+ * rights and ability to use SZIP compression by reviewing the
+ * SZIP copyright notice.
+ *
+ * \note \b For \b Users \b Familiar \b with \b SZIP \b in \b Other \b Contexts:
+ *
+ * \note The following notes are of interest primarily to those who have
+ * used SZIP compression outside of the HDF5 context.
+ * In non-HDF5 applications, SZIP typically requires that the user
+ * application supply additional parameters:
+ * - \p pixels_in_object, the number of pixels in the object to
+ * be compressed
+ * - \p bits_per_pixel, the number of bits per pixel
+ * - \p pixels_per_scanline, the number of pixels per scan line
+ *
+ * \note These values need not be independently supplied in the HDF5
+ * environment as they are derived from the datatype and dataspace,
+ * which are already known. In particular, HDF5 sets
+ * \p pixels_in_object to the number of elements in a chunk and
+ * \p bits_per_pixel to the size of the element or pixel datatype.
+ *
+ * \note The following algorithm is used to set \p pixels_per_scanline:
+ * - If the size of a chunk's fastest-changing dimension, size,
+ * is greater than 4K, set \p pixels_per_scanline to 128 times
+ * \p pixels_per_block.
+ * - If size is less than 4K but greater than \p pixels_per_block,
+ * set \p pixels_per_scanline to the minimum of size and 128
+ * times \p pixels_per_block.
+ * - If size is less than \p pixels_per_block but greater than the
+ * number elements in the chunk, set \p pixels_per_scanline to
+ * the minimum of the number elements in the chunk and 128 times
+ * \p pixels_per_block.
+ *
+ * \note The HDF5 datatype may have precision that is less than the full
+ * size of the data element, e.g., an 11-bit integer can be defined
+ * using H5Tset_precision(). To a certain extent, SZIP can take
+ * advantage of the precision of the datatype to improve compression:
+ * - If the HDF5 datatype size is 24-bit or less and the offset of
+ * the bits in the HDF5 datatype is zero (see H5Tset_offset() or
+ * H5Tget_offset()), the data is the in lowest N bits of the data
+ * element. In this case, the SZIP \p bits_per_pixel is set to the
+ * precision of the HDF5 datatype.
+ * - If the offset is not zero, the SZIP \p bits_per_pixel will be
+ * set to the number of bits in the full size of the data element.
+ * - If the HDF5 datatype precision is 25-bit to 32-bit, the SZIP
+ * \p bits_per_pixel will be set to 32.
+ * - If the HDF5 datatype precision is 33-bit to 64-bit, the SZIP
+ * \p bits_per_pixel will be set to 64.
+ *
+ * \note HDF5 always modifies the options mask provided by the user to set up
+ * usage of RAW_OPTION_MASK, ALLOW_K13_OPTION_MASK, and one of
+ * LSB_OPTION_MASK or MSB_OPTION_MASK, depending on endianness of the
+ * datatype.

+ * If the new \p src_file_name does not exist or no prefix is being

+ * If that source file does not exist, the new \p src_file_name

+ * For example, consider a \p src_file_name of \Code{/tmp/A.h5}.
+ * If that source file does not exist, the new \p src_file_name

+ *
+ * The raw data chunk cache inserts chunks into the cache

+ * reduces efficiency. If inserting the chunk into cache would
+ * cause the cache to be too big, then the cache is pruned
+ * according to the \p rdcc_w0 parameter.
+ *
+ * \b Motivation: H5Pset_chunk_cache() is used to adjust the chunk
+ * cache parameters on a per-dataset basis, as opposed to a global
+ * setting for the file using H5Pset_cache(). The optimum chunk
+ * cache parameters may vary widely with different data layout and
+ * access patterns, so for optimal performance they must be set
+ * individually for each dataset. It may also be beneficial to
+ * reduce the size of the chunk cache for datasets whose
+ * performance is not important in order to save memory space.
+ *
+ * \b Example \b Usage: The following code sets the chunk cache to
+ * use a hash table with 12421 elements and a maximum size of
+ * 16 MB, while using the preemption policy specified for the
+ * entire file:
+ * \Code{
+ * H5Pset_chunk_cache(dapl_id, 12421, 16*1024*1024,
+ * H5D_CHUNK_CACHE_W0_DEFAULT);}
+ *
+ * \b Usage \b Notes: The chunk cache size is a property for
+ * accessing a dataset and is not stored with a dataset or a
+ * file. To guarantee the same chunk cache settings each time
+ * the dataset is opened, call H5Dopen() with a dataset access
+ * property list where the chunk cache size is set by calling
+ * H5Pset_chunk_cache() for that property list. The property
+ * list can be used for multiple accesses in the same
+ * application.
+ *
+ * For files where the same chunk cache size will be
+ * appropriate for all or most datasets, H5Pset_cache() can
+ * be called with a file access property list to set the
+ * chunk cache size for accessing all datasets in the file.
+ *
+ * Both methods can be used in combination, in which case
+ * the chunk cache size set by H5Pset_cache() will apply
+ * except for specific datasets where H5Dopen() is called
+ * with dataset property list with the chunk cache size
+ * set by H5Pset_chunk_cache().
+ *
+ * In the absence of any cache settings, H5Dopen() will
+ * by default create a 1 MB chunk cache for the opened
+ * dataset. If this size happens to be appropriate, no
+ * call will be needed to either function to set the
+ * chunk cache size.
+ *
+ * It is also possible that a change in access pattern

+ * must be created and maintained in the original style. This is HDF5’s default
+ * behavior. If backward compatibility with pre-1.8.0 libraries is not a concern,

+ * groups. See <a href="https://portal.hdfgroup.org/display/HDF5/Groups">Group
+ * implementations in HDF5</a> in the \ref H5G API introduction (at the bottom).\n
+ * H5Pset_local_heap_size_hint() is useful for tuning file size when files
+ * contain original-style groups with either zero members or very large
+ * numbers of members.\n
+ * The original style of HDF5 groups, the only style available prior to HDF5
+ * Release 1.8.0, was well-suited for moderate-sized groups but was not optimized
+ * for either very small or very large groups. This original style remains the
+ * default, but two new group implementations were introduced in HDF5 Release 1.8.0:
+ * compact groups to accommodate zero to small numbers of members and indexed groups
+ * for thousands or tens of thousands of members ... or millions, if that's what
+ * your application requires.\n
+ * The local heap size hint, \p size_hint, is a performance tuning parameter for
+ * original-style groups. As indicated above, an HDF5 group may have zero, a handful,
+ * or tens of thousands of members. Since the original style of HDF5 groups stores the
+ * metadata for all of these group members in a uniform format in a local heap, the size
+ * of that metadata (and hence, the size of the local heap) can vary wildly from group
+ * to group. To intelligently allocate space and to avoid unnecessary fragmentation of
+ * the local heap, it can be valuable to provide the library with a hint as to the local
+ * heap’s likely eventual size. This can be particularly valuable when it is known that
+ * a group will eventually have a great many members. It can also be useful in conserving
+ * space in a file when it is known that certain groups will never have any members.

+ * effective only if the #H5O_COPY_MERGE_COMMITTED_DTYPE_FLAG is
+ * enabled in the object copy property list via
+ * H5Pset_copy_object().
+ *
+ * When copying a committed datatype, a dataset with a committed
+ * datatype, or an object with an attribute of a committed
+ * datatype, the default behavior of H5Ocopy() is to search for
+ * a matching committed datatype:
+ * <ol>
+ * <li> First search the list of suggested paths in the object
+ * copy property list.</li>
+ * <li> Then, if no match has been found, search all the committed
+ * datatypes in the destination file.
+ * </ol>
+ * The default Step 2 in this search process can be changed by
+ * setting a callback function (see H5Pset_mcdt_search_cb()).
+ *
+ * Two datatypes are determined equal if their descriptions are
+ * identical, in a manner similar to H5Tequal(). If either
+ * committed datatype has one or more attributes, then all
+ * attributes must be present in both committed datatypes and they
+ * must be identical. Two attributes are considered identical if
+ * their datatype description, dataspace, and raw data values are
+ * the same. However, if an attribute uses a committed datatype,
+ * that committed datatype’s attributes will not be compared.
+ *
+ * If a match is found, H5Ocopy() will perform the following in
+ * the destination file:
+ * \li For a committed datatype, the library will create a hard
+ * link to the found datatype.
+ * \li For a dataset that uses a committed datatype, the library
+ * will modify the copied dataset to use the found committed
+ * datatype as its datatype.
+ * \li For an object with an attribute of a committed datatype,
+ * the library will modify the copied object’s attribute to
+ * use the found committed datatype as its datatype.
+ *
+ * If no match is found, H5Ocopy() will perform the following in
+ * the destination file:
+ * \li For a committed datatype, the library will copy it as it
+ * would any other object, creating a named committed
+ * datatype at the destination. That is, the library will
+ * create a committed datatype that is accessible in the
+ * file by a unique path.
+ * \li For a dataset that uses a committed datatype, the
+ * library will copy the datatype as an anonymous
+ * committed datatype and use that as the dataset’s
+ * datatype.
+ * \li For an object with an attribute of a committed datatype,
+ * the library will copy the datatype as an anonymous
+ * committed datatype and use that as the attribute’s
+ * datatype.

+ * H5Padd_merge_committed_dtype_path() is the mechanism for

+ * faster than the default approach of searching the entire

+ *
+ * \b Example \b Usage: This example adds two paths to the object

+ *
+ * \details H5Pset_mcdt_search_cb() allows an application to set a
+ * callback function, \p func, that will be invoked before
+ * searching the destination file for a matching committed
+ * datatype. The default, global search process is described in
+ * H5Padd_merge_committed_dtype_path().
+ *
+ * The callback function must conform to the #H5O_mcdt_search_cb_t
+ * prototype and will return an instruction for one of the
+ * following actions:
+ *
+ * \li Continue the search for a matching committed datatype in
+ * the destination file.
+ * \li Discontinue the search for a matching committed datatype.
+ * H5Ocopy() will then apply the default behavior of creating
+ * an anonymous committed datatype.
+ * \li Abort the copy operation and exit H5Ocopy().
+ *
+ * \b Motivation: H5Pset_mcdt_search_cb() provides the means to
+ * define a callback function. An application can then use that
+ * callback to take an additional action before the default search
+ * of all committed datatypes in the destination file or to take an
+ * action that replaces the default search. This mechanism is
+ * intended to improve performance when the global search might
+ * take a long time.
+ *
+ * \b Example \b Usage: This example defines a callback function in
+ * the object copy property list.
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * static H5O_mcdt_search_ret_t
+ * mcdt_search_cb(void *_udata)
+ * {
+ * H5O_mcdt_search_ret_t action = *((H5O_mcdt_search_ret_t *)_udata);

+ * H5Pset_mcdt_search_cb(ocpypl_id, mcdt_search_cb, &action);
+ * H5Ocopy(...ocpypl_id...);
+ * ...
+ * ...
+ * }
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * \note H5Pset_mcdt_search_cb() will fail if the
+ * object copy property list is invalid.
+ *
+ * \warning If the callback function return value causes H5Ocopy() to
+ * abort, the destination file may be left in an inconsistent or
+ * corrupted state.

+ *
+ * The \p coord parameter is a pointer to a buffer containing a

+ * point selection array that it represents.
+ *
+ * The selection operator \p op determines how the new selection
+ * is to be combined with the previously existing selection for
+ * the dataspace. The following operators are supported:

+ *
+ * <b>Mapping the serialized \p coord buffer to a 2-dimensional

+ * To illustrate the construction of the contents of the \p coord
+ * buffer, consider two simple examples: a selection of 5 points in
+ * a 1-dimensional array and a selection of 3 points in a
+ * 4-dimensional array.
+ *
+ * In the 1D case, we will be selecting five points and a 1D
+ * dataspace has rank 1, so the selection will be described in a
+ * 5-by-1 array. To select the 1st, 14th, 17th, 23rd, 8th elements
+ * of the dataset, the selection array would be as follows
+ * (remembering that point coordinates are zero-based):
+ * \n 0
+ * \n 13
+ * \n 16
+ * \n 22
+ * \n 7
+ *
+ * This point selection array will be serialized in the \p coord
+ * buffer as:
+ * \n 0 13 16 22 7
+ *
+ * In the 4D case, we will be selecting three points and a 4D
+ * dataspace has rank 4, so the selection will be described in a
+ * 3-by-4 array. To select the points (1,1,1,1), (14,6,12,18), and
+ * (8,22,30,22), the point selection array would be as follows:
+ * \n 0 0 0 0
+ * \n 13 5 11 17
+ * \n 7 21 29 21
+ *
+ * This point selection array will be serialized in the \p coord

+ * to every other element in that dimension of the dataspace. In
+ * other words, the \p stride determines the number of elements to
+ * move from the \p start location in each dimension. Stride values
+ * of \p 0 are not allowed. If the \p stride parameter is NULL, a
+ * contiguous hyperslab is selected (as if each value in the \p stride

+ *
+ * The \p count array determines how many blocks to select from the

+ *
+ * The \p block array determines the size of the element block

+ * NULL, the block size defaults to a single element in each dimension
+ * (as if each value in the \p block array were set to \p 1).
+ *
+ * For example, consider a 2-dimensional dataspace with hyperslab

+ *
+ * \brief Filter and Compression Interface
+ *
+ * \details The functions in this module let you configure filters that process
+ * data during I/O operation.
+ *
+ * HDF5 supports a filter pipeline that provides the capability for
+ * standard and customized raw data processing during I/O operations.
+ * HDF5 is distributed with a small set of standard filters such as
+ * compression (gzip, SZIP, and a shuffling algorithm) and error
+ * checking (Fletcher32 checksum). For further flexibility, the
+ * library allows a user application to extend the pipeline through
+ * the creation and registration of customized filters.
+ *
+ * The flexibility of the filter pipeline implementation enables the
+ * definition of additional filters by a user application. A filter
+ * \li is associated with a dataset when the dataset is created,
+ * \li can be used only with chunked data (i.e., datasets stored in
+ * the #H5D_CHUNKED storage layout), and
+ * \li is applied independently to each chunk of the dataset.
+ *
+ * The HDF5 library does not support filters for contiguous datasets
+ * because of the difficulty of implementing random access for partial
+ * I/O. Compact dataset filters are not supported because it would not
+ * produce significant results.
+ *
+ * Filter identifiers for the filters distributed with the HDF5
+ * Library are as follows:
+ * <table>
+ * <tr><td>#H5Z_FILTER_DEFLATE</td><td>The gzip compression, or
+ * deflation, filter</td></tr>
+ * <tr><td>#H5Z_FILTER_SZIP</td><td>The SZIP compression
+ * filter</td></tr>
+ * <tr><td>#H5Z_FILTER_NBIT</td><td>The N-bit compression
+ * filter</td></tr>
+ * <tr><td>#H5Z_FILTER_SCALEOFFSET</td><td>The scale-offset
+ * compression filter</td></tr>
+ * <tr><td>#H5Z_FILTER_SHUFFLE</td><td>The shuffle algorithm
+ * filter</td></tr>
+ * <tr><td>#H5Z_FILTER_FLETCHER32</td><td>The Fletcher32 checksum,
+ * or error checking, filter</td></tr>
+ * </table>
+ * Custom filters that have been registered with the library will have
+ * additional unique identifiers.
+ *
+ * See \ref_dld_filters for more information on how an HDF5
+ * application can apply a filter that is not registered with the HDF5
+ * library.

+ * filter-definition
+ *
+ * \return \herr_t
+ *
+ * \details H5Zregister() registers a new filter with the HDF5 library.
+ *
+ * \details Making a new filter available to an application is a two-step
+ * process. The first step is to write the three filter callback
+ * functions described below: \c can_apply, \c set_local, and \c
+ * filter. This call to H5Zregister(), registering the filter with the
+ * library, is the second step. The can_apply and set_local fields can
+ * be set to NULL if they are not required for the filter being
+ * registered.
+ *
+ * H5Zregister() accepts a single parameter, a pointer to a buffer for
+ * the \p cls data structure. That data structure must conform to one
+ * of the following definitions:
+ * \snippet this H5Z_class1_t_snip
+ * or
+ * \snippet this H5Z_class2_t_snip
+ *
+ * \c version is a library-defined value reporting the version number
+ * of the #H5Z_class_t struct. This currently must be set to
+ * #H5Z_CLASS_T_VERS.
+ *
+ * \c id is the identifier for the new filter. This is a user-defined
+ * value between #H5Z_FILTER_RESERVED and #H5Z_FILTER_MAX. These
+ * values are defined in the HDF5 source file H5Zpublic.h, but the
+ * symbols #H5Z_FILTER_RESERVED and #H5Z_FILTER_MAX should always be
+ * used instead of the literal values.
+ *
+ * \c encoder_present is a library-defined value indicating whether
+ * the filter’s encoding capability is available to the application.
+ *
+ * \c decoder_present is a library-defined value indicating whether
+ * the filter’s encoding capability is available to the application.
+ *
+ * \c name is a descriptive comment used for debugging, may contain a
+ * descriptive name for the filter, and may be the null pointer.
+ *
+ * \c can_apply, described in detail below, is a user-defined callback
+ * function which determines whether the combination of the dataset
+ * creation property list values, the datatype, and the dataspace
+ * represent a valid combination to apply this filter to.
+ *
+ * \c set_local, described in detail below, is a user-defined callback
+ * function which sets any parameters that are specific to this
+ * dataset, based on the combination of the dataset creation property
+ * list values, the datatype, and the dataspace.
+ *
+ * \c filter, described in detail below, is a user-defined callback
+ * function which performs the action of the filter.
+ *
+ * The statistics associated with a filter are not reset by this
+ * function; they accumulate over the life of the library.
+ *
+ * #H5Z_class_t is a macro which maps to either H5Z_class1_t or
+ * H5Z_class2_t, depending on the needs of the application. To affect
+ * only this macro, H5Z_class_t_vers may be defined to either 1 or 2.
+ * Otherwise, it will behave in the same manner as other API
+ * compatibility macros. See API Compatibility Macros in HDF5 for more
+ * information. H5Z_class1_t matches the #H5Z_class_t structure that is
+ * used in the 1.6.x versions of the HDF5 library.
+ *
+ * H5Zregister() will automatically detect which structure type has
+ * been passed in, regardless of the mapping of the #H5Z_class_t macro.
+ * However, the application must make sure that the fields are filled
+ * in according to the correct structure definition if the macro is
+ * used to declare the structure.
+ *
+ * \Bold{The callback functions:}\n Before H5Zregister() can link a
+ * filter into an application, three callback functions must be
+ * defined as described in the HDF5 library header file H5Zpublic.h.
+ *
+ * When a filter is applied to the fractal heap for a group (e.g.,
+ * when compressing group metadata) and if the can apply and set local
+ * callback functions have been defined for that filter, HDF5 passes
+ * the value -1 for all parameters for those callback functions. This
+ * is done to ensure that the filter will not be applied to groups if
+ * it relies on these parameters, as they are not applicable to group
+ * fractal heaps; to operate on group fractal heaps, a filter must be
+ * capable of operating on an opaque block of binary data.
+ *
+ * The \Emph{can apply} callback function must return a positive value
+ * for a valid combination, zero for an invalid combination, and a
+ * negative value for an error.
+ * \snippet this H5Z_can_apply_func_t_snip
+ *
+ * Before a dataset is created, the \Emph{can apply} callbacks for any
+ * filters used in the dataset creation property list are called with
+ * the dataset's dataset creation property list, \c dcpl_id, the
+ * dataset's datatype, \p type_id, and a dataspace describing a chunk,
+ * \p space_id, (for chunked dataset storage).
+ *
+ * This callback must determine whether the combination of the dataset
+ * creation property list settings, the datatype, and the dataspace
+ * represent a valid combination to which to apply this filter. For
+ * example, an invalid combination may involve the filter not
+ * operating correctly on certain datatypes, on certain datatype
+ * sizes, or on certain sizes of the chunk dataspace. If this filter
+ * is enabled through H5Pset_filter() as optional and the can apply
+ * function returns 0, the library will skip the filter in the filter
+ * pipeline.
+ *
+ * This callback can be the NULL pointer, in which case the library
+ * will assume that the filter can be applied to a dataset with any
+ * combination of dataset creation property list values, datatypes,
+ * and dataspaces.
+ *
+ * The \Emph{set local} callback function is defined as follows:
+ * \snippet this H5Z_set_local_func_t_snip
+ *
+ * After the can apply callbacks are checked for a new dataset, the
+ * \Emph{set local} callback functions for any filters used in the
+ * dataset creation property list are called. These callbacks receive
+ * \c dcpl_id, the dataset's private copy of the dataset creation
+ * property list passed in to H5Dcreate() (i.e. not the actual
+ * property list passed in to H5Dcreate()); \c type_id, the datatype
+ * identifier passed in to H5Dcreate(), which is not copied and should
+ * not be modified; and \c space_id, a dataspace describing the chunk
+ * (for chunked dataset storage), which should also not be modified.
+ *
+ * The set local callback must set any filter parameters that are
+ * specific to this dataset, based on the combination of the dataset
+ * creation property list values, the datatype, and the dataspace. For
+ * example, some filters perform different actions based on different
+ * datatypes, datatype sizes, numbers of dimensions, or dataspace
+ * sizes.
+ *
+ * The \Emph{set local} callback may be the NULL pointer, in which
+ * case, the library will assume that there are no dataset-specific
+ * settings for this filter.
+ *
+ * The \Emph{set local} callback function must return a non-negative
+ * value on success and a negative value for an error.
+ *
+ * The \Emph{filter operation} callback function, defining the
+ * filter's operation on the data, is defined as follows:
+ * \snippet this H5Z_func_t_snip
+ *
+ * The parameters \c flags, \c cd_nelmts, and \c cd_values are the
+ * same as for the function H5Pset_filter(). The one exception is that
+ * an additional flag, #H5Z_FLAG_REVERSE, is set when the filter is
+ * called as part of the input pipeline.
+ *
+ * The parameter \c buf points to the input buffer which has a size of
+ * \c buf_size bytes, \c nbytes of which are valid data.
+ *
+ * The filter should perform the transformation in place if possible.
+ * If the transformation cannot be done in place, then the filter
+ * should allocate a new buffer with malloc() and assign it to \c buf,
+ * assigning the allocated size of that buffer to \c buf_size. The old
+ * buffer should be freed by calling free().
+ *
+ * If successful, the \Emph{filter operation} callback function
+ * returns the number of valid bytes of data contained in \c buf. In
+ * the case of failure, the return value is 0 (zero) and all pointer
+ * arguments are left unchanged.
+ *
+ * \version 1.8.6 Return type for the \Emph{can apply} callback function,
+ * \ref H5Z_can_apply_func_t, changed to \ref htri_t.
+ * \version 1.8.5 Semantics of the \Emph{can apply} and \Emph{set local}
+ * callback functions changed to accommodate the use of filters
+ * with group fractal heaps.
+ * \version 1.8.3 #H5Z_class_t renamed to H5Z_class2_t, H5Z_class1_t structure

+ * \brief Resizes and, if required, re-allocates memory that will later be
+ * freed internally by the HDF5 library
+ *
+ * \param[in] mem Pointer to a buffer to be resized. May be NULL
+ * \param[in] size New size of the buffer, in bytes
+
+ *
+ * \return On success, returns pointer to resized or reallocated buffer
+ * or returns NULL if size is 0 (zero).\n
+ * Returns NULL on failure.
+ *
+ * \details H5resize_memory() takes a pointer to an existing buffer and resizes
+ * the buffer to match the value in \p size. If necessary, the buffer
+ * is reallocated. If \p size is 0, the buffer is released.
+ *
+ * The input buffer must either be NULL or have been allocated by
+ * H5allocate_memory() since the input buffer may be freed by the
+ * library.
+ *
+ * For certain behaviors, the pointer \p mem may be passed in as NULL.
+ *
+ * This function is intended to have the semantics of realloc():
+ *
+ * <table>
+ * <tr><td>\Code{H5resize_memory(buffer, size)}</td>
+ * <td>Resizes buffer. Returns pointer to resized buffer.</td></tr>
+ * <tr><td>\Code{H5resize_memory(NULL, size)}</td>
+ * <td>Allocates memory using HDF5 Library allocator.
+ * Returns pointer to new buffer</td></tr>
+ * <tr><td>\Code{H5resize_memory(buffer, 0)}</td>
+ * <td>Frees memory using HDF5 Library allocator.
+ * Returns NULL.</td></tr>
+ * <tr><td>\Code{H5resize_memory(NULL, 0)}</td>
+ * <td>Returns NULL (undefined in C standard).</td></tr>
+ * </table>
+ *
+ * Unlike realloc(), which allows for a "special pointer to be
+ * returned instead of NULL, this function always returns NULL on
+ * failure or when size is 0 (zero).
+ *
+ * \note At this time, the only intended use for this function is to resize or
+ * reallocate memory that will be returned to the library (and eventually
+ * to the user) as a data buffer from a third-party HDF5 filter.
