I don't think this is documented extensively, but you can always have a look at existing wrappers. Here it is one example for Blosc: http://blosc.pytables.org/trac/browser/trunk/hdf5/blosc_filter.c and here for LZO and bzip2: http://www.pytables.org/trac/browser/trunk/src/H5Zlzo.c http://www.pytables.org/trac/browser/trunk/src/H5Zbzip2.c all three are registered by THG, so you can use them as-is and don't be afraid that their IDs would be overwritten by other filters in the future. -- Francesc Alted _______________________________________________ Hdf-forum is for HDF software users discussion.
