H5P_GET_ALLOC_TIME

Retrieves the timing for storage space allocation

Procedure:

H5P_GET_ALLOC_TIME ( plist_id, alloc_time )

Signature:

herr_t H5Pget_alloc_time(hid_t plist_id,
            H5D_alloc_time_t *alloc_time
        )
  

Fortran90 Interface: h5pget_alloc_time_f
    
SUBROUTINE h5pget_alloc_time_f(plist_id, flag, hdferr) 
  IMPLICIT NONE
  INTEGER(HID_T), INTENT(IN) :: plist_id   ! Dataset creation

                                           ! Possible values are:

END SUBROUTINE h5pget_alloc_time_f
	

Parameters:
hid_t plist_idIN: Dataset creation property list identifier
H5D_alloc_time_t *alloc_time    IN: When to allocate dataset storage space

Description:

H5P_GET_ALLOC_TIME retrieves the timing for allocating storage space for a dataset's raw data. This property is set in the dataset creation property list plist_id. The timing setting is returned in alloc_time as one of the following values:

H5D_ALLOC_TIME_DEFAULT  Uses the default allocation time, based on the dataset storage method.
See the alloc_time description in H5P_SET_ALLOC_TIME for default allocation times for various storage methods.
H5D_ALLOC_TIME_EARLYAll space is allocated when the dataset is created.
H5D_ALLOC_TIME_INCR  Space is allocated incrementally as data is written to the dataset.
H5D_ALLOC_TIME_LATEAll space is allocated when data is first written to the dataset.

H5P_GET_ALLOC_TIME is designed to work in concert with the dataset fill value and fill value write time properties, set with the functions H5P_GET_FILL_VALUE and H5P_GET_FILL_TIME.

 

Returns:

Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise returns a negative value.
