Hi!
I did put the "string" and now I get the following
error:
File
"C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\tables\description.py",
line 169, in from_
type
newatom = atom.Atom.from_type(type, shape, dflt)
File "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\tables\atom.py",
line 451, in from_type
return class_.from_kind(kind, itemsize, shape,
dflt)
File "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\tables\atom.py",
line 500, in from_kind
raise ValueError( "no default item size for kind
``%s``"
ValueError: no default item size for kind ``string``
Closing remaining open files: TABLE_2_0_TEST.h5...
done
I see now why it works for other types except the
"string". Maybe this could be fixed by adding the
itemsize along the string keyword like "string10". But
then so should function split_type be modified...
Cheers, Dragan.
