Hello,
I am sorry that I could not make myself clear. What I meant to say is
that I aim to form a compound datatype which comprises VL (variable
length) and fixed-length array fields/datatypes. In the example for
creating VL datatype, using a user-defined datatype which includes a
pointer is suggested (Example 27 on page 227 in the HDF user manual).
That is what I want to avoid but it seems it is the only way. What I
want to achieve is summarized in Figure 18 on page 238 in the HDF user
manual; a compound datatype built up of numerous VL and atomic datatypes.

Hi,
suggestions about storing this data as a compound type with variable
length fields without using pointers as explained in
h5ex_t_vlen_F03.f90 [1] example script on HDF GROUP web site. Thank
you in advance for your concerns.
I don't understand what you mean by "not using pointers", do you mean
you don't want to use C_LOC and/or F2003 and still do the same thing
as h5ex_t_vlen_F03.f90? Can you explain further what in
h5ex_t_vlen_F03.f90 you want to avoid doing?
