Hello, I would like to request new functionality into PetscViewerHDF5ReadAttribute method. In HDF5 file, I can assign attributes to groups not only to datasets however the method allows reading attributes only from datasets. I think a new feature should be implemented easily - generalisation of dataset as the object - after then you can read attributes assigned to groups as well as datasets. I did a simple implementation in the attached file.
Thank you, Marek
