Hi,
Isn't there any support for H5TB api as of now within HDF5.NET ? Kindly let
me know if I missed it in the library !
Thanks & Regards

Dear all,
Please find a fork of HDF5DotNet on github at:
https://github.com/galpin/HDF5.NET
Changes include:
* Jesse Lai's H5PT bindings (working with the latest HDF5 [1.8.6]).
* Test cases for H5PT (fixed length packet tables and compound data types).
* A small bug fix (a7e1ab9d).
* Compatibility with 1.8.x deprecated functions (80a2c544d).
* A test suit that fully passes.
Please fork and improve.
I haven't "reversed" Jesse's .NET style for H5PT. Ultimately, I would like
update to entire set of bindings to be consistent with Microsoft.
Best wishes,
Martin

Hello Martin,
I wasn't aware of any public repository for sharing the updates to the
HDF5DotNet library. I've already made all .NET style changes to the rest of
the classes, as well as added additional functionality where it was missing.
That does break compatibility with any of the existing HDF5DotNet code in the
wild, but its typically just minor casing issues.
If you like, I can send you the whole updated source code for the project. I
haven't really used Git before so I don't know how the fork process works, but
I'd be interested in contributing to your project. I've written some minimal
unit tests for the various functions. I originally wrote the unit tests using
the MS Visual Studio testing framework. I like it because you can easily
integrate to databases so you can more easily test various cases for inputs.
But then it requires that you have the full Visual Studio to run the tests. I
started looking at NUnit for unit tests and have a a couple of basic tests
implemented, but it doesn't integrate with databases as easily so I haven't
spent any time really doing anything with it.
As an aside, I also have a pure C# version of the HDF5DotNet library where I
wrote everything in C# just using PInvoke's to call the HDF5 library. I
thought this might be nicer since then it could be possible to build the
assembly as AnyCPU and not have to worry about the x86/x64 versions etc. It
mostly works, but there are some pretty major issues with pinned data arrays of
arbitrary types (i.e. not the basic types such as int, float, double, etc).
I'm starting to doubt the usefulness of it now, so I haven't really messed with
it in a while.
Jesse
