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

<h3>The Fortran90 and C++ APIs to HDF5</h3>
|
|
</a>
|
|
|
|
The HDF5 Library distribution now includes FORTRAN90 and C++ APIs.
|
|
These APIs are described in the following documents.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Fortran90 API</strong>
|
|
<dir>
|
|
<a href="fortran/F90UserNotes.html" target="External">
|
|
<cite>HDF5 FORTRAN90 User's Notes</cite></a>
|
|
contains general information regarding the API.
|
|
Specific information on each API call is found in the
|
|
<cite>Reference Manual</cite>.
|
|
<p>
|
|
<u>Fortran90 APIs in the <cite>Reference Manual</cite>:</u>
|
|
The current version of the <cite>HDF5 Reference Manual</cite> includes
|
|
a description of the FORTRAN90 API to HDF5.
|
|
Fortran subroutines exist in the H5A, H5D, H5E, H5F, H5G, H5I, H5P,
|
|
H5R, H5S, and H5T interfaces and are described on those pages.
|
|
<p>
|
|
In general, each Fortran subroutine performs exactly the same task
|
|
as the corresponding C function. In the electronic version of this manual,
|
|
the links at the top of each reference
|
|
manual section go to the C function descriptions, which serve as general
|
|
descriptions for both the C and Fortran APIs. A button, under
|
|
<strong>Non-C API(s)</strong> at the end of the C function description,
|
|
opens an external browser window displaying the Fortran-specific
|
|
information. You will probably want to adjust the size and location of
|
|
this external window so that both browser windows are visible and to
|
|
facilitate moving easily between them.
|
|
<p>
|
|
<a href="fortran/F90Flags.html" target="External">
|
|
<cite>HDF5 Fortran90 Flags and Datatypes</cite></a>
|
|
lists the flags employed in the Fortran90 interface and
|
|
contains a pointer to the HDF5 Fortran90 datatypes.
|
|
</dir>
|
|
|
|
<strong>C++ API</strong>
|
|
<dir>
|
|
<a href="cpplus/CppUserNotes.pdf" target="External">
|
|
<cite>HDF5 C++ User's Notes</cite></a>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<a href="cpplus/CppInterfaces.html" target="External">
|
|
<cite>HDF5 C++ Interfaces</cite></a>
|
|
<p>
|
|
(Note that the C++ APIs are not yet integrated into the
|
|
<cite>HDF5 Reference Manual</cite>.)
