I have an application that is writing to a dataset using the table API
(H5TB) using a compound type that contains another compound type, some
scalars, some arrays, and two enums. When I try and look at the dataset
using h5dump, it fails to resolve the enums and I'm not sure why.
The datatype the dataset is using appears to be not committed, that is,
the structure definition is printed by h5dump right after the dataset
section start, rather than simply referring to the path of a committed
type. The enums in question are listed with the uncommitted type
definition as expected.
For example, I see this in the datatype definition:
"STATION_POWER_STATUS" 5636;
but in the actual data, I see only:
00:00:16:04,
(5636 = 0x1604)
What might I be doing wrong to cause this disconnect for the enum
types? I'm doing similar stuff with the low-level H5D API without issue.
