I don't think these two are really comparable. The significant difference appears to be that pyhdf5io is a thin wrapper for File.createArray, so when it encounters non-array objects, it will pickle them to strings, and save the strings to the HDF5 file. Hdf5pickle, OTOH, implements the pickle protocol, and will unwrap non- array objects so that all their attributes etc. are exposed in the hdf5 file and can be read by non-Python applications. -- Pauli Virtanen _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
