The documentation of H5Lget_info()
http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/RM/RM_H5L.html#Link-GetInfo
herr_t H5Lget_info( hid_t link_loc_id, const char *link_name, H5L_info_t
*link_buff, hid_t lapl_id )
says:
"In the above struct, type specifies the link class. Valid values include the
following:"
H5L_LINK_HARD Hard link
H5L_LINK_SOFT Soft link
H5L_LINK_EXTERNAL External link
H5L_LINK_ERROR Error
But those symbols don't exist in the HDF5 headers:
grep LINK_HARD *.h
H5Dprivate.h:#define H5D_XFER_COLL_CHUNK_LINK_HARD_NAME "coll_chunk_link_hard"
H5Gpublic.h:#define H5G_LINK_HARD H5L_TYPE_HARD
It seems they should be "H5G_LINK_HARD" instead of "H5L_LINK_HARD", or rather
H5L_TYPE_ERROR
H5L_TYPE_HARD
H5L_TYPE_SOFT
H5L_TYPE_EXTERNAL
since these enums exist, in contrast to the documented ones.
