/************************************************************ This example shows how to read and write integer datatypes to a dataset. The program first writes integers to a dataset with a dataspace of DIM0xDIM1, then closes the file. Next, it reopens the file, reads back the data, and outputs it to the screen. This file is intended for use with HDF5 Library version 1.6 ************************************************************/ #include "hdf5.h" #include #include #define FILE "h5ex_t_int.h5" #define DATASET "DS1" #define DIM0 4 #define DIM1 7 int main(void) { hid_t file, space, dset; /* Handles */ herr_t status; hsize_t dims[2] = {DIM0, DIM1}; int wdata[DIM0][DIM1], /* Write buffer */ **rdata, /* Read buffer */ ndims, i, j; /* * Initialize data. */ for (i = 0; i < DIM0; i++) for (j = 0; j < DIM1; j++) wdata[i][j] = i * j - j; /* * Create a new file using the default properties. */ file = H5Fcreate(FILE, H5F_ACC_TRUNC, H5P_DEFAULT, H5P_DEFAULT); /* * Create dataspace.
