I'm new to HDF5 and gfortran. I've able to read in an array of doubles,
but I'm having problem reading in an array of fixed-length strings
(actually bytes).
My dataset is named 'dstamp', and according to HDF5View:
No of dimensions: 1
Dimensions size: 2598
Max Dimension size: 2598
Data Type: String, length=10
In Fortran, I have overdeclared the size because I don't know in advance
how many string there are, but I know in advance that the strings are of
length 10:
character (len=10), dimension(10000)::dstamp
integer(Hsize_t), dimension(1):: dims
CALL h5fopen_f ("whatever.h5", H5F_ACC_RDWR_F, file_id, error)
call h5dopen_f(file_id, "dstamp", dset_id, error)
CALL h5dget_space_f(dset_id, dspace_id, error)
call h5sget_simple_extent_npoints_f(dspace_id, npoints, error)
print *, "dstamp npoints =", npoints
call h5sget_simple_extent_ndims_f(dspace_id, rank, error)
print *, "With rank ", rank ! rank is 1
dims = (/ npoints /)
CALL h5dread_f(dset_id, H5T_FORTRAN_S1, dstamp, dims, error)
if(error.eq.1) stop 501
CALL h5dclose_f(dset_id, error)
do i=1,15
print *, dstamp(i)
enddo
The problem is, all it does is print a series of "2222222222"s. How do I
fix the problem?
