<title>Property List Interface (H5P)</title>
[svn-r985] Checking in changes from "HDF5 Release 1.0" CVS branch that have not yet been checked into "HDF5 Development" branch. General ======= Various "copy edit" types of repairs. Revisions to document cross-linking. Added structural links tying all docs together (banners at top and bottom of documents, similar to Reference Manual banners of the Beta release). Set background color to white in all documents. NCSAfooterlogo.gif hdf2.jpg New image files to make the documents more self-contained (i.e., to prevent loading images from NCSA and HDF home servers). index.html Redesigned to isolate links external to the installation in a single location. Intro to HDF5 ============= H5.intro.html Fixed banner linking Intro to other docs. Set all URLs to be relative within the distribution; nothing points back to the HDF server. Updates to "Limits of the Current Release" and "Changes in the Current Release." HDF5 User's Guide ================= Changed several User Guide section titles such that all sections that are primarily about a particular interface are now titled in the format "The xxxxx Interface (H5x)". H5.user.html Commented out links to developer docs since they are marked in MANIFEST as not being for distribution in the release. Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. Datatypes.html Removed the sentence "I'm deferring definition until later since they're probably not as important as the other data types." from Section 3.3, "Properties of Date and Time Atomic Types." Added info regarding 'char' versus 'string' datatypes. Added as Section 3.7, "Character and String Datatype Issues." References.html Commented out substantial material (at end of document) from References planning document that is not appropriate for the User Guide but that is worth keeping around. Groups.html Final edits from elimination of "current working group." HDF5 Reference Manual ===================== Removed "Draft" from the <title>__</title> lines. RM_H5Front.html Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. RM_H5F.html RM_H5P.html Add file mounting information.

<!-- #EndLibraryItem --><h1>The Property List Interface (H5P)</h1>
[svn-r467] Restructuring documentation.
1998-07-08 22:54:54 +08:00
<h2>1. Introduction</h2>
<p>The property list (a.k.a., template) interface provides a
mechanism for default named arguments for a C function
interface. A property list is a collection of name/value pairs
which can be passed to various other HDF5 functions to control
features that are typically unimportant or whose default values
are usually used.
<p>For instance, file creation needs to know various things such
as the size of the user-block at the beginning of the file, or
the size of various file data structures. Wrapping this
information in a property list simplifies the API by reducing
the number of arguments to <code>H5Fcreate()</code>.
<h2>2. General Property List Operations</h2>
<p>Property lists follow the same create/open/close paradigm as
the rest of the library.
<dl>
<dt><code>hid_t H5Pcreate (H5P_class_t <em>class</em>)</code>
<dd>A new property list can be created as an instance of some
property list class. The new property list is initialized
with default values for the specified class. The classes are:
<br><br>
<dl>
<dt><code>H5P_FILE_CREATE</code>
<dd>Properties for file creation. See <a href="Files.html">H5F</a>
for details about the file creation properties.
<dt><code>H5P_FILE_ACCESS</code>
<dd>Properties for file access. See <a href="Files.html">H5F</a>
for details about the file creation properties.
<dt><code>H5P_DATASET_CREATE</code>
<dd>Properties for dataset creation. See
<a href="Datasets.html">H5D</a> for details about dataset
creation properties.
<dt><code>H5P_DATASET_XFER</code>
<dd>Properties for raw data transfer. See
<a href="Datasets.html">H5D</a> for details about raw data
transfer properties.
</dl>
<br><br>
<dt><code>hid_t H5Pcopy (hid_t <em>plist</em>)</code>
<dd>A property list can be copied to create a new property
list. The new property list has the same properties and values
as the original property list.
<br><br>
<dt><code>herr_t H5Pclose (hid_t <em>plist</em>)</code>
<dd>All property lists should be closed when the application is
finished accessing them. This frees resources used by the
property list.
<br><br>
<dt><code>H5P_class_t H5Pget_class (hid_t <em>plist</em>)</code>
<dd>The class of which the property list is a member can be
obtained by calling this function. The property list classes
are defined above for <code>H5Pcreate()</code>.

[svn-r985] Checking in changes from "HDF5 Release 1.0" CVS branch that have not yet been checked into "HDF5 Development" branch. General ======= Various "copy edit" types of repairs. Revisions to document cross-linking. Added structural links tying all docs together (banners at top and bottom of documents, similar to Reference Manual banners of the Beta release). Set background color to white in all documents. NCSAfooterlogo.gif hdf2.jpg New image files to make the documents more self-contained (i.e., to prevent loading images from NCSA and HDF home servers). index.html Redesigned to isolate links external to the installation in a single location. Intro to HDF5 ============= H5.intro.html Fixed banner linking Intro to other docs. Set all URLs to be relative within the distribution; nothing points back to the HDF server. Updates to "Limits of the Current Release" and "Changes in the Current Release." HDF5 User's Guide ================= Changed several User Guide section titles such that all sections that are primarily about a particular interface are now titled in the format "The xxxxx Interface (H5x)". H5.user.html Commented out links to developer docs since they are marked in MANIFEST as not being for distribution in the release. Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. Datatypes.html Removed the sentence "I'm deferring definition until later since they're probably not as important as the other data types." from Section 3.3, "Properties of Date and Time Atomic Types." Added info regarding 'char' versus 'string' datatypes. Added as Section 3.7, "Character and String Datatype Issues." References.html Commented out substantial material (at end of document) from References planning document that is not appropriate for the User Guide but that is worth keeping around. Groups.html Final edits from elimination of "current working group." HDF5 Reference Manual ===================== Removed "Draft" from the <title>__</title> lines. RM_H5Front.html Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. RM_H5F.html RM_H5P.html Add file mounting information.
