Hi Pierre,
The code should work (it works for me) after fixing 2 problems.
1.) hsize_t counts[3]={1,1,1}; in line 12 should be hsize_t
counts[3]={1,1,3};
The hyperslab that you want to write is the 3 elements at y,x,0 - y,x,2, so
you start at y,x,0, write 1x1x1 blocks for a count of 3 in the third dimension
while not changing the first 2 dimensions.
2.) Your code selects a hyperslab in "dataspace" in line 15, which will be the
correct hyperslab after making correction #1. But then it gets a new space
"filespace" which is used for the call to HDwrite(). While the "filespace" id
identifies the same dataspace as "dataspace", no hyperslab has been selected
for it, hence the error "src and dest data spaces have different sizes". You
should eliminate "filespace" entirely and in its place in the call to H5Dwrite
use the "dataspace" that you have passed in and used to select the hyperslab.
While the program will then work, the memory dataspace could also be simplified
since 2 of the dimensions are 1:
change line 13 to hsize_t dims_memory[1]={3};
and line 18 to hid_t memspace = H5Screate_simple(1,
dims_memory, NULL);
For reference, there are example programs that read and write hyperslabs in
hdf5 at these links:

Hope this helps,
Larry

Subject: [Hdf-forum] newbie: updating a cell in a table of integers
(cross posted http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24883461 )
Hi all,
I'm a newbie with HDF5.
I built a *5x4* table.
Each cell of the table contains *3* integers
I'm trying to write a function `setyx` that would update a cell of the
table at y,x
I wrote the C code below but it raises some errors:
| #000: H5Dio.c line 225 in H5Dwrite(): can't prepare for writing data
major: Dataset
minor: Write failed
#001: H5Dio.c line 347 in H5D__pre_write(): can't write data
major: Dataset
minor: Write failed
#002: H5Dio.c line 685 in H5D__write(): src and dest data spaces have
different sizes
major: Invalid arguments to routine
minor: Bad value|
what is the correct way to update a given cell at |(y,x)| ?
