These thresholds determine the point at which attribute storage changes from compact storage (i.e., storage in the object header) to dense storage (i.e., storage in a heap and indexed with a B-tree).</p>
<p>In the general case, attributes are initially kept in compact storage. When the number of attributes exceeds <code>max_compact</code>, attribute storage switches to dense storage. If the number of attributes subsequently falls below <code>min_dense</code>, the attributes are returned to compact storage.</p>
<p>If <code>max_compact</code> is set to 0 (zero), dense storage always used.</p>
<p><code>plist_id</code> is an object creation property list (<code>ocpl</code>), as it can be a dataset or group creation property list identifier. The term <code>ocpl</code> is used when different types of objects may be involved.</p>

<p><code>plist_id</code> must be either a dataset creation property list or group creation property list identifier. If <code>plist_id</code> is a dataset creation property list identifier, the filter is added to the raw data filter pipeline.</p>
<p>If <code>plist_id</code> is a group creation property list identifier, the filter is added to the link filter pipeline, which filters the fractal heap used to store most of the link metadata in certain types of groups. The only predefined filters that can be set in a group creation property list are the gzip filter (<a class="el" href="_h5_zpublic_8h.html#a9e802e9612b3647e7d3ffe4ce3b8dcce">H5Z_FILTER_DEFLATE</a>) and the Fletcher32 error detection filter (<a class="el" href="_h5_zpublic_8h.html#a59ca894c9c2b99b1614b0c46a7407f1c">H5Z_FILTER_FLETCHER32</a>).</p>
<p>The array <code>cd_values</code> contains <code>cd_nelmts</code> unsigned integers which are auxiliary data for the filter. The values are typically used as parameters to control the filter. In a filter's <code>set_local</code> method (called from <code>H5Dcreate</code>), the values are interpreted and possibly modified before they are used to control the filter. These, possibly modified values, are then stored in the dataset object header as auxiliary data for the filter.</p>

<table class="doxtable">

<br  />
 For example, assume that an application creates a dataset of four chunks, the chunk cache is enabled and is big enough to hold all four chunks, and the filter fails when it tries to write the fourth chunk. The actual flush of the chunks will happen during <a class="el" href="group___h5_d.html#gae47c3f38db49db127faf221624c30609" title="Closes the specified dataset.">H5Dclose()</a>, not <a class="el" href="group___h5_d.html#ga98f44998b67587662af8b0d8a0a75906" title="Writes raw data from a buffer to a dataset.">H5Dwrite()</a>.

<dl class="section note"><dt>Note</dt><dd>When a non-empty filter pipeline is used with a group creation property list, the group will be created with the new group file format. The filters will come into play only when dense storage is used (see <a class="el" href="group___g_c_p_l.html#gab463ac9355728469eddfd973b4a5964f" title="Sets the parameters for conversion between compact and dense groups.">H5Pset_link_phase_change()</a>) and will be applied to the group's fractal heap. The fractal heap will contain most of the group's link metadata, including link names.</dd>
<dd>
When working with group creation property lists, if you are adding a filter that is not in HDF5's set of predefined filters, i.e., a user-defined or third-party filter, you must first determine that the filter will work for a group. See the discussion of the set local and can apply callback functions in <a class="el" href="group___h5_z.html#ga93145acc38c2c60d832b7a9b0123706b" title="Registers a new filter with the HDF5 library.">H5Zregister()</a>.</dd>
<dd>
If multiple filters are set for a property list, they will be applied to each chunk of raw data for datasets or each block of the fractal heap for groups in the order in which they were set.</dd>
<dd>
Filters can be applied only to chunked datasets; they cannot be used with other dataset storage methods, such as contiguous, compact, or external datasets.</dd>
<dd>
Dataset elements of variable-length and dataset region reference datatypes are stored in separate structures in the file called heaps. Filters cannot currently be applied to these heaps.</dd>
<dd>
<b>Filter Behavior in HDF5:</b><br  />
 Filters can be inserted into the HDF5 pipeline to perform functions such as compression and conversion. As such, they are a very flexible aspect of HDF5; for example, a user-defined filter could provide encryption for an HDF5 dataset.</dd>
<dd>
A filter can be declared as either required or optional. Required is the default status; optional status must be explicitly declared.</dd>
<dd>
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.</dd>
<dd>
The following table summarizes required filter behavior. <table class="doxtable">
<tr>
<th></th><th>Required FILTER_X not available </th><th>FILTER_X available  </th></tr>
<tr>
<td>H5Pset_&lt;FILTER_X&gt; </td><td>Will fail. </td><td>Will succeed.  </td></tr>
<tr>
<td>H5Dwrite with FILTER_X set </td><td>Will fail. </td><td>Will succeed; FILTER_X will be applied to the data.  </td></tr>
<tr>
<td>H5Dread with FILTER_X set </td><td>Will fail. </td><td>Will succeed.  </td></tr>
</table>
</dd>
<dd>
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.</dd>
<dd>
A filter can be declared as optional through the use of the <a class="el" href="_h5_zpublic_8h.html#a70bde763f28557539e1628ecc2e2e2fd">H5Z_FLAG_OPTIONAL</a> flag with <a class="el" href="#ga191c567ee50b2063979cdef156a768c5" title="Adds a filter to the filter pipeline.">H5Pset_filter()</a>.</dd>
<dd>
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.</dd>
<dd>
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.</dd>
<dd>
The following table summarizes optional filter behavior. <table class="doxtable">
<tr>
<th></th><th>FILTER_Z not available </th><th>FILTER_Z available<br  />
 with encode and decode </th><th>FILTER_Z available decode only  </th></tr>
<tr>
<td>H5Pset_&lt;FILTER_Z&gt; </td><td>Will succeed. </td><td>Will succeed. </td><td>Will succeed.  </td></tr>

The above principles apply generally in the use of HDF5 optional filters insofar as HDF5 does as much as possible to complete an operation when an optional filter is unavailable. (The SZIP filter is an exception to this rule; see <a class="el" href="group___d_c_p_l.html#ga37de4b6071a94574cfab5cd6de9c3fc6" title="Sets up use of the SZIP compression filter.">H5Pset_szip()</a> for details.)</dd></dl>

<dl class="section attention"><dt>Attention</dt><dd>The Fletcher32 EDC checksum filter was added in HDF5 Release 1.6.0. In the original implementation, however, the checksum value was calculated incorrectly on little-endian systems. The error was fixed in HDF5 Release 1.6.3.</dd>
<dd>
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.)</dd>
<dd>
<b>Work-around</b>: 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 <a class="el" href="group___d_x_p_l.html#ga0d95dfa506784acc9aed850c99713609" title="Sets the dataset transfer property list to enable or disable error detection when reading data.">H5Pset_edc_check()</a> with the value <a class="el" href="group___f_l_e_t_c_h_e_r32.html#gga5217bb01cd38dbfc4c5c8cad39c01a08a0c21397694cd7ac1573b19b81c581c32">H5Z_DISABLE_EDC</a> in the second parameter.
