Hello, I know how to manipulate attribute with the standard HDF5 API and now I am learning the Lite API to reduce the lines of code in my projects.
I write the result of H5LTdtype_to_text to an already existing dataset with the function H5LTset_attribute_string, this works as intended. When I try to read the string using H5LTget_attribute_string I can't find a way to know the string length for the buffer allocation. If I use H5LTget_attribute_info(file_id, "/dset", "attr", &str_size, &type_class, &byte_size) the function do not fail but the variable str_size is left untouched. What is the correct way to get the string size? Thanks, Mario
