Detailed Description

A class representing an HDF5 data set.

Intended use:

Public interface

Test programs:: tHDF5DataSet

Prerequisite

HDF5 system

Synopsis

This class wraps the HDF5 functions to create and open a data set. It is meant to be used in class HDF5Lattice, but can be used in itself as well. A dataset of any HDF5DataType (including compound types) can be created. For a limited number of data types special constructors exist which create the appropriate HDF5DataType themselves.
A data set can be created extendible by defining the appropriate axis with length 0, whereafter the extend function can be used to extend the data set. The data can be stored in a tiled (chunked) way by specifying the tile shape when creating it.
When opening an existing data set, it is checked if the given data type matches the data set's data type. For a compound data type, it only checks if its size matches; it does not check if the fields match.
It is possible to read or write a section of the data set by using an appropriate Slicer object. Note that the Slicer object must be fully filled; it does not infer missing info from the array shape.

Note that Casacore arrays are in Fortran order, while HDF5 uses C order. Therefore array axes are reversed, thus axes in shapes, slicers, etc.

Motivation

It was overkill to use the HDF5 C++ interface. Instead little wrappers have been written. HDF5DataSet can be embedded in a shared pointer making it possible to share an HDF5 data set amongst various HDF5Lattice objects and close (i.e. destruct) the HDF5 data set object when needed.

virtual casacore::HDF5DataSet::~HDF5DataSet ( )

virtual

The destructor closes the HDF5 dataset object.

casacore::HDF5DataSet::HDF5DataSet ( const HDF5DataSet & that )

private

Copy constructor cannot be used.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void casacore::HDF5DataSet::close ( )

virtual

Close the hid if valid.

Implements casacore::HDF5Object.

void casacore::HDF5DataSet::closeDataSet ( )

protected

Close the dataset (but not other hids).

void casacore::HDF5DataSet::create	(	const HDF5Object &	,
		const String &	,
		const IPosition &	shape,
		const IPosition &	tileShape
	)

protected

Create the data set.

void casacore::HDF5DataSet::extend ( const IPosition & shape )

Extend the dataset if an axis in the new shape is larger.

void casacore::HDF5DataSet::get	(	const Slicer &	,
		ArrayBase &	buf,
		Bool	resize = `False`
	)

Get a section of data into the array.

The array is resized if its shape does not match the slicer's shape. This is only possible if the array is empty or if resize=True. It is not checked if the data type of array and HDF5DataSet match.

void casacore::HDF5DataSet::get	(	const Slicer &	,
		void *	buf
	)

Get a section of data.

The buffer must be large enough to hold the section.

static DataType casacore::HDF5DataSet::getDataType	(	hid_t	,
		const String &	name
	)

static

Get the data type for the data set with the given name.

void casacore::HDF5DataSet::open	(	const HDF5Object &	,
		const String &
	)

protected

Open the data set and check if the external data type matches.

HDF5DataSet& casacore::HDF5DataSet::operator= ( const HDF5DataSet & that )

private

Assignment cannot be used.

void casacore::HDF5DataSet::put	(	const Slicer &	,
		const ArrayBase &	buf
	)

Put a section of data.

The shape of the array and slicer must match. It is not checked if the data type of array and HDF5DataSet match.

void casacore::HDF5DataSet::put	(	const Slicer &	,
		const void *	buf
	)

Put a section of data.

The buffer must be large enough to hold the section.

void casacore::HDF5DataSet::setCacheSize ( uInt nchunks )

Set the cache size (in chunks) for the data set.

It needs to close and reopen the DataSet to take effect.

const IPosition& casacore::HDF5DataSet::shape ( ) const
