/************************************************************ This example shows how to read and write compound datatypes to an attribute. The program first writes compound structures to an attribute with a dataspace of DIM0, then closes the file. Next, it reopens the file, reads back the data, and outputs it to the screen. ************************************************************/ #include "hdf5.h" #include #include #define FILE "h5ex_t_cmpdatt.h5" #define DATASET "DS1" #define ATTRIBUTE "A1" #define DIM0 4 typedef struct { int serial_no; char *location; double temperature; double pressure; } sensor_t; /* Compound type */ int main(void) { hid_t file, filetype, memtype, strtype, space, dset, attr; /* Handles */ herr_t status; hsize_t dims[1] = {DIM0}; sensor_t wdata[DIM0], /* Write buffer */ *rdata; /* Read buffer */ int ndims; hsize_t i; /* * Initialize data. */ wdata[0].serial_no = 1153; wdata[0].location = "Exterior (static)"; wdata[0].temperature = 53.23; wdata[0].pressure = 24.57; wdata[1].serial_no = 1184; wdata[1].location = "Intake"; wdata[1].temperature = 55.12; wdata[1].pressure = 22.95; wdata[2].serial_no = 1027; wdata[2].location = "Intake manifold"; wdata[2].temperature = 103.55; wdata[2].pressure = 31.23; wdata[3].serial_no = 1313; wdata[3].location = "Exhaust manifold"; wdata[3].temperature = 1252.89; wdata[3].pressure = 84.11; /* * Create a new file using the default properties. */ file = H5Fcreate(FILE, H5F_ACC_TRUNC, H5P_DEFAULT, H5P_DEFAULT); /* * Create variable-length string datatype. */ strtype = H5Tcopy(H5T_C_S1); status = H5Tset_size(strtype, H5T_VARIABLE); /* * Create the compound datatype for memory. */ memtype = H5Tcreate(H5T_COMPOUND, sizeof(sensor_t)); status = H5Tinsert(memtype, "Serial number", HOFFSET(sensor_t, serial_no), H5T_NATIVE_INT); status = H5Tinsert(memtype, "Location", HOFFSET(sensor_t, location), strtype); status = H5Tinsert(memtype, "Temperature (F)", HOFFSET(sensor_t, temperature), H5T_NATIVE_DOUBLE); status = H5Tinsert(memtype, "Pressure (inHg)", HOFFSET(sensor_t, pressure), H5T_NATIVE_DOUBLE); /* * Create the compound datatype for the file.
