Hello Everyone,

If I have a compound type's made up of primitives

  STD_I32LE
  IEEE_F64LE
  ...

then Hdf5 will store this as a plain old data type with everything
next to each other in a fixed, predictable way.  I have also found
this to be true for fixed length strings.  How does Hdf5 handle
variable length strings?  Does it put it inline, or is there a heap
somewhere else?  Is there any documentation about what the heap looks
like?

Thanks,
Walter Landry
