Easing use of HDF5 C++ library with stl was one of the tasks we would like to do, but couldn't do due to the lack of resources. Our group will be glad to provide some support for this work, especially if it comes as an improvement/extension to the existing library since many of the HDF5 C++ users will benefit from this work.
