I need to pair individual rows of a compound type dataset with a dataset of 3D points (three floats per row, anywhere from 4 to many thousands of rows) that is unique to that row. Are there any standard ways to accomplish this? I have considered adding a link to the compound dataset which refers to the dataset containing the 3D points but I would like to avoid having that information being part of the C structure as my library seeks to entirely wrap all HDF function calls and datatypes. I am also uncertain if there are any drawbacks to creating so many datasets.
Thanks for your help, Paul _______________________________________________ Hdf-forum is for HDF software users discussion. [email protected] http://mail.hdfgroup.org/mailman/listinfo/hdf-forum_hdfgroup.org
