I'm trying to get two datasets into one file, and I'm clearly doing something 
wrong. Can someone point out the obvious to me?

#include "myh5defs.h"
#define FILE "wdset.h5"

main() {

   hid_t       file_id, dataset, dataspace;  /* identifiers */
   hid_t       parmset,parmspace;
   hsize_t     dims[2];
   herr_t      status;
   double data[24]; int i,parm;

   /* Create a new file using default properties. */
   file_id = H5Fcreate(FILE, H5F_ACC_TRUNC, H5P_DEFAULT, H5P_DEFAULT);

   /* Create the dataset. */
   dims[0] = 4; dims[1] = 6; 
   dataspace = H5Screate_simple(2, dims, NULL);
   dataset = H5Dcreate
     (file_id, "/dset", H5T_NATIVE_DOUBLE, dataspace, H5P_DEFAULT);

   /* Add a descriptive parameter */
   parmspace = H5Screate(H5S_SCALAR);
   parmset = H5Dcreate
     (file_id,"/parm",H5T_NATIVE_INT,parmspace,H5P_DEFAULT);

   /* Write data to file */
   for (i=0; i<24; i++) data[i] = i+.5;
   status = H5Dwrite
     (dataset,H5T_NATIVE_DOUBLE,H5S_ALL,H5S_ALL,H5P_DEFAULT,
      data); H5REPORT(status);

   /* write parameter value */
   parm = 37;
   status = H5Dwrite
     (parmset,H5T_NATIVE_INT,H5S_ALL,H5S_ALL,H5P_DEFAULT,
      &parm); H5REPORT(status);

   /* End access to the dataset and release resources used by it. */
   status = H5Dclose(dataset);
   status = H5Dclose(parmset);

   /* Terminate access to the data space. */ 
   status = H5Sclose(dataspace);
   status = H5Sclose(parmspace);

   /* Close the file. */
   status = H5Fclose(file_id);
}



Output:

 %% h5dump wdset.h5 
HDF5 "wdset.h5" {
GROUP "/" {
   DATASET "dset" {
      DATATYPE  H5T_IEEE_F64LE
      DATASPACE  SIMPLE { ( 4, 6 ) / ( 4, 6 ) }
      DATA {
      (0,0): 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5,
      (1,0): 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, 9.5, 10.5, 11.5,
      (2,0): 12.5, 13.5, 14.5, 15.5, 16.5, 17.5,
      (3,0): 18.5, 19.5, 20.5, 21.5, 22.5, 23.5
      }
   }
   DATASET "parm" {
      DATATYPE  H5T_STD_I32LE
      DATASPACE  SCALAR
      DATA {
      (0): 0
      }
   }
}
}


Writing either dataset on its own works correctly.
