The HDF5.NET library is far from complete. But if a function you need is not there, you can add it and recompile. The existing functions are templates to whatever functionality you need to add.

When I load an HDF5 file, I want to read all the data set attributes for all the data sets. Unfortunately this is very slow when I have a large number of data sets. Firstly, I understand that I could re-write my code using datasets in place of attributes, but Im trying to avoid that as I like my current H5 file structure. I want to switch to dense storage of attributes to speed up this process. However, Im struggling to understand how to do this, specifically with HDF5DOTNET. HDF5 Questions (not related to HDF5DOTNET): 1. I understand that H5Pset_attr_phase_change property can be used with creation of H5Files. Is this the general method for using dense attribute storage or is there a more explicit method to use when creating attributes (or datasets/groups)? HDF5DOTNET Questions: 1. I could not find any any wrapper functions for H5Pset_attr_phase_change in HDF5DOTNET. Is there an equivalent function or some method for ensure dense attribute storage which is currently supported. Thanks, - Nick
