NAME
- H5Adelete
+ H5Adelete2
PURPOSE
Deletes an attribute from a location
USAGE
herr_t H5Adelete (loc_id, name)
- hid_t loc_id; IN: Object (dataset or group) to have attribute deleted from
- const char *name; IN: Name of attribute to delete
+ hid_t loc_id; IN: Base location for object
+ const char *obj_name; IN: Name of object relative to location
+ const char *attr_name; IN: Name of attribute to delete
+ hid_t lapl_id; IN: Link access property list
RETURNS
Non-negative on success/Negative on failure
DESCRIPTION
- This function removes the named attribute from a dataset or group.
- This function should not be used when attribute IDs are open on 'loc_id'
- as it may cause the internal indexes of the attributes to change and future
- writes to the open attributes to produce incorrect results.
+ This function removes the named attribute from an object.
