<h1>HDF5: API Specification<br>Reference Manual</h1>
</center>

The HDF5 libraries provide several interfaces, each of which provides the 
tools required to meet specific aspects of the HDF5 data-handling requirements.

<ul>

<li><a href="RM_H5.html">Library Functions</a> -- The general-purpose <strong>H5</strong> functions.
<li><a href="RM_H5F.html">File Interface</a> -- The <strong>H5F</strong> API for accessing HDF files.
<li><a href="RM_H5P.html">Property List Interface</a> -- The <strong>H5P</strong> API for manipulating object property lists.
<li><a href="RM_H5D.html">Dataset Interface</a> -- The <strong>H5D</strong> API for manipulating scientific datasets. 
<li><a href="RM_H5T.html">Datatype Interface</a> -- The <strong>H5T</strong> API for defining dataset element information.
<li><a href="RM_H5S.html">Dataspace Interface</a> -- The <strong>H5S</strong> API for defining dataset dataspace.
<li><a href="RM_H5G.html">Group Interface</a> -- The <strong>H5G</strong> API for creating physical groups of objects on disk.
<li><a href="RM_H5E.html">Error Interface</a> -- The <strong>H5E</strong> API for error handling.
<li><a href="RM_H5Z.html">Compression Interface</a> -- The <strong>H5Z</strong> API for compression.
<li><a href="RM_H5A.html">Annotation Interface</a> -- The <strong>H5A</strong> API for annotations.
<li><a href="Tools.html">Tools</a> -- Interactive tools for the examination of existing HDF5 files.
<!--
<li><a href="Glossary.html">Glossary</a> -- A glossary of data-types used in the APIs.
-->
<!--
<hr>
<li>Experimental interface:<a href="RM_H5R.html">Ragged Arrays</a>&nbsp;&nbsp; -- The <strong>H5R</strong> API for ragged arrays.
