When using HDFView, I am unable to see external links.

Using H5Lcreate_external from
http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/RM/RM_H5L.html#Link-CreateExternal

And h5dump show the external link for "test1.h5":

HDF5 "d:/data/test1.h5" {
GROUP "/" {
    GROUP "G1" {
    }
    EXTERNAL_LINK "L1" {
       TARGETFILE "D:/data/Test2.h5"
       TARGETPATH "/G2"
          GROUP "/G2" {
             DATASET "D2" {
                DATATYPE  H5T_STD_I32LE
                DATASPACE  SIMPLE { ( 1, 1 ) / ( 1, 1 ) }
                DATA {
                (0,0): 0
                }
             }
             GROUP "G22" {
             }
          }
    }
}
}
