Decodes a binary object description of datatype and return a new object handle
Procedure:
Signature:
hid_t H5Tdecode (unsigned char *buf)
SUBROUTINE h5tdecode_f(buf, obj_id, hdferr)
IMPLICIT NONE
CHARACTER(LEN=*), INTENT(IN) :: buf ! Data space object buffer to be decoded
INTEGER(HID_T), INTENT(OUT) :: obj_id! Object identifier
INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: hdferr ! Error code
! 0 on success and -1 on failure
END SUBROUTINE h5tdecode_f
Parameters:
unsigned char *buf | IN: Buffer for the datatype object to be decoded |
Description:
Given an object description of datatype in binary in a buffer, H5T_DECODE reconstructs the HDF5 datatype object and returns a new object handle for it. The binary description of the object is encoded by H5T_ENCODE . User is responsible for passing in the right buffer.
The datatype identifier returned by this function can be released with H5T_CLOSE when the identifier is no longer needed so that resource leaks will not develop.
Returns:
Returns an object identifier (non-negative) if successful; otherwise returns a negative value.
