Could you be more specific on resizing data? Is it any of the following?
1) you defined your data as variable size and add/delete data from it,
2) you define fixed length of dimensions and extend/shrink the
dimensions, or
3) you define as 2D and change it to 1D, 3D, etc.
Thanks

Hello,
Apologies if this is a question with an obvious answer, I've searched
the web and archives long and hard and couldn't find an answer.
I'm looking to replace some of the data files of our software with
hdf5 to make it easier to edit them with external tools. Specifically,
I need a way to edit multi-dimensional arrays of numeric data, for
which I figures hdf5 would be a natural fit. However what I need are
arrays with variable sizes. It seems to be complicated to do that
through the API, none of the popular tools (HDFView, HDF Explorer)
seem to support resizing data, and ViTables I haven't been able to get
to run on Windows.
So my question is - is hdf5 suitable as a data format for data with
varying dimensions? What tools will let me work with that? Thanks.
regards,
Roel
