Hello,
thanks for maintaining libhdf5.
I was quite surprised that CommonFG::getObjnameByIdx returns a string
without the last character. I investigated a bit and this little fix
seems to solve the problem:

// now, allocate C buffer to get the name
- char* name_C = new char[name_len];
- name_len = H5Gget_objname_by_idx(getLocId(), idx, name_C, name_len);
+ char* name_C = new char[name_len + 1];
+ name_len = H5Gget_objname_by_idx(getLocId(), idx, name_C, name_len + 1);
// clean up and return the string
string name = string(name_C);
It seems that the people who made the C++ wrapper had temporarily
forgotten that C strings are 0-terminated.
I rebuilt the hdf5 packages with that patch and it now works fine.
Best regards,
Enrico
