Excerpt

Functions to simplify creating and manipulating datasets, attributes and other features (H5LT, H5LD)

HDF5 Lite API Reference

The HDF5 Lite API consists of higher-level functions which do more operations per call than the basic HDF5 interface. The purpose is to wrap intuitive functions around certain sets of features in the existing APIs. This version of the API has two sets of functions: dataset and attribute related functions.
