Gets an attribute datatype
Procedure:
Signature:
hid_t H5Aget_type(hid_t attr_id)
Fortran90 Interface: h5aget_type_f
SUBROUTINE h5aget_type_f(attr_id, type_id, hdferr)
IMPLICIT NONE
INTEGER(HID_T), INTENT(IN) :: attr_id ! Attribute identifier
INTEGER(HID_T), INTENT(OUT) :: type_id ! Attribute datatype identifier
INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: hdferr ! Error code:
! 0 on success and -1 on failure
END SUBROUTINE h5aget_type_f
Parameters:
hid_t attr_id
IN: Identifier of an attribute
Description:
H5A_GET_TYPE retrieves a copy of the datatype for an attribute.
The datatype is reopened if it is a named type before returning it to the application. The datatypes returned by this function are always read-only. If an error occurs when atomizing the return datatype, then the datatype is closed.
The datatype identifier returned from this function must be released with H5T_CLOSE or resource leaks will develop.
Returns:
Returns a datatype identifier if successful; otherwise returns a negative value.
Example:
*/
dtype = H5Aget_type (attr);
! Get datatype and properties for the datatype.
!
CALL h5aget_type_f(attr, dtype, hdferr)
