Hi Justin,
I tried it and the tutorial topic that was previously mentioned on outputting
an HDF5 dataset into ASCII
(http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/Tutor/cmdtoolcvrt.html#ascii) unfortunately does
not work well with compound datatypes, such as tables. The h5dump output will
be vertical and contain unwanted bracket characters. For example, here is a
snippet of the ASCII output you get from running h5dump (with the
-d, -o, -y, -w options) with the file created by the table example from the
High Level tutorial (ex_table_01.c):
{
"zero",
0,
0,
0,
0
}, {
"one",
10,
10,
1,
10
}, {
-- >8 cut ---
I entered an enhancement report to add a way from the command-line to export a
simple table in an HDF5 file into an ASCII file (that can then be imported into
Excel).
Thanks!
