Sorry for bothering you again: is it the expected behaviour of
H5Lget_info() that it reports the type as H5L_TYPE_HARD in the
H5L_info_t structure if what is passed as the 'link_name' argu-
ment is actually just a group? I was expecting to get back a
negative return value but that only seems to happen if a group
or (soft) link with the specified name does not exist. May I
conclude that a group is basically a hard link?
Thanks and best regards, Jens
