Hello,

I need to be able to stream data to pipes and sockets but the stream
driver is deprecated [0].

What is the reason for this deprecation ?

I found some code in https://svn.origo.ethz.ch/f5/src/hdf5stream/ . Is
this the official location ?
(if so, you might want to update the Changes.html to reflect this)

Can I expect to be able to be able to use this code with hdf5 v 1.8.5 ?
(I do think so [1] )

Any help on getting a working stream driver for 1.8.5 would be
*greatly* appreciated !

Best Regards,

Bernard

* All the VFL drivers aren't backward compatible.  In H5FDpublic.h, the
 structure H5FD_class_t changed in 1.8.  There is a new parameter added to
 get_eoa and set_eoa callback functions.  A new callback function
 get_type_map was added.  The public function H5FDrealloc was taken
 out in 1.8.  The problem only happens when users define their own driver
 for 1.6 and try to plug it into a 1.8 library.  This affects a very small
 number of users.  (See bug report #1279.)  SLU - 2010/2/2
