Hi Everyone,
I am thinking of using HDF5 for data that is usually very small, but
can sometimes get substantial. So I am wondering what is the minimum
size of an HDF5 file? I tried running this program
#include <hdf5.h>
int main()
{
hid_t file;
file = H5Fcreate("small_hdf5.h5", H5F_ACC_TRUNC, H5P_DEFAULT, H5P_DEFAULT);
H5Fclose(file);
}
which gave me a file with 800 bytes. Is that the smallest it can get?
Thanks,
Walter Landry
