Hi All,
I am trying
hid_t dataset_id = H5Dcreate(group_frame_id, "mass
(GeV/(c^2))", std_type_id, space_id, H5P_DEFAULT, H5P_DEFAULT,
H5P_DEFAULT);
And the returned dataset_id = -1. If I changed the string to "mass
(GeV_(c^2))", I got a valid dataset_id.
Is "/" a special/reserved character in HDF5? Is there such a reserved
character list for HDF5?
Hi Xunlei,
If your goal is to indicate the units of mass used then a more common
approach is to specify those as a bit of metadata, for example as an
HDF5 attribute called "Units" which a value of "GeV/(c^2)".
Cheers,
