There is no direct mapping between a MATLAB cell array and an equivalent HDF5 data structure. I would suggest investigating some of the HDF5 low-level API functions to create a data structure that would mimic a collection of heterogeneous structures.
I hope this information helps. -----Original Message----- From: Hdf-forum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of digitalriptide Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2014 12:49 AM To: HDF Users Discussion List Subject: [Hdf-forum] MATLAB Cell Array in HDF5? Is there something with equivalent functionality to Matlab's cell array in HDF5? I am converting my code from Matlab output to HDF5 output, and I have a collection of heterogeneous structs that I would like to store in a a single array. I was previously outputting these to a cell array in Matlab, but I'm having trouble finding an example of an equivalent data structure in HDF5. Can one create an array where each entry is a different compound type? Thank you for your advice! _______________________________________________ Hdf-forum is for HDF software users discussion.
