Returns the layout of the raw data for a dataset

Procedure:

H5P_GET_LAYOUT ( plist )

Signature:

H5D_layout_t   H5Pget_layout(hid_t plist)
  

Fortran90 Interface: h5pget_layout_f
    
SUBROUTINE h5pget_layout_f (prp_id, layout, hdferr)
  IMPLICIT NONE
  INTEGER(HID_T), INTENT(IN) :: prp_id ! Property list identifier
  INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: layout       ! Type of storage layout for raw data
                                       ! possible values are:
                                       !    H5D_COMPACT_F
                                       !    H5D_CONTIGUOUS_F

                                       ! 0 on success and -1 on failure
END SUBROUTINE h5pget_layout_f 

Parameters:

hid_t plist    IN: Identifier for property list to query

Description:

H5P_GET_LAYOUT returns the layout of the raw data for a dataset. This function is only valid for dataset creation property lists.

Note that a compact storage layout may affect writing data to the dataset with parallel applications. See note in H5D_WRITE documentation for details.

Returns:

Returns the layout type (a non-negative value) of a dataset creation property list if successful. Valid return values are:

H5D_COMPACT:  Raw data is stored in the object header in the file.

H5D_CONTIGUOUS: Raw data is stored separately from the object header in one contiguous chunk in the file.

H5D_CHUNKED:  Raw data is stored separately from the object header in chunks in separate locations in the file.

H5D_VIRTUAL:  Raw data is drawn from multiple datasets in different files.

Otherwise, returns a negative value indicating failure.
