Thanks. Here is a snippet of my code which appears to work....
//m_pConfig->getFilename() returns a std::string
H5File file(hdfFilename,H5F_ACC_TRUNC);
Group dataGroup = file.createGroup("/data");
StrType vlst(0, H5T_VARIABLE);
Attribute attrConfigFilename = dataGroup.createAttribute("configFilename",
vlst, DataSpace(H5S_SCALAR));
attrConfigFilename.write(vlst, m_pConfig->getFilename());
