PURPOSE +! This module is used to pass C stubs for H5 Fortran APIs. The C stubs are +! packed into arrays in H5_f.c and these arrays are then passed to Fortran. +! This module then uses EQUIVALENCE to assign elements of the arrays to +! Fortran equivalent C stubs. +! +! NOTES +! The size of the C arrays in H5_f.c has to match the values of the variables +! declared as PARAMETER, hence if the size of an array in H5_f.c is changed +! then the PARAMETER of that corresponding array in Fortran must also be changed. +! +! !
