Hi,

I am trying to do HDF5 IO in petsc4py. I noticed that when I create a viewer 
using 
  PETSc.Viewer().createHDF5(inputfile,comm= PETSc.COMM_WORLD)
the file "outputfile" is wiped out and replaced with a empty hdf5 container, 
which is bad since I am trying to read forrm it... 

Unsurprisingly, I have no problems using the longer approach:
  h5in = PETSc.Viewer().create(PETSc.COMM_WORLD)
  h5in.setType(PETSc.Viewer.Type.HDF5)
  h5in.setFileMode(PETSc.Viewer.Mode.READ)
  h5in.setFileName(inputfile)

Is this expected?

Regards,
Blaise
