Hi, Lately a user of PyTables (a library based on HDF5) has shown interest in implementing links in it. After a brief analysis, we realized that, in order to avoid inconsistencies in PyTables' object tree cache between several possible different (hard) reference to a dataset, we would need an identifier that would be provided by HDF5 so that it would be the same across all the links to the actual data in disk (kind of a 'inode' in a filesystem).
Is there a way to get such a unique identifier? Thanks! -- >0,0< Francesc Altet http://www.carabos.com/ V V Cárabos Coop. V.
