Hi Cyril, I've implemented a *very* preliminary version of links. You can download the branch with something like:
$ svn co http://www.pytables.org/svn/pytables/branches/links The new methods for creating links are: File.createHardLink(where, name, target, createparents=False) File.createSoftLink(where, name, target, createparents=False) File.createExternalLink(where, name, target, createparents=False) but existing links in already created HDF5 files should open well too. I've to update user's manual yet, but docstrings in code should be fairly complete. BTW, the ``links`` branch should work only with HDF5 1.8.x series (I still have to see how to backport this to HDF5 1.6.x). If you want to have a look at the implementation, look at: http://pytables.org/trac/log/branches/links Please tell me if you experience some problem or have suggestions.
