Subject: [Hdf-forum] Integrity check in C++

Dear pros:

I have two similar issues I would like to ask about, and I'd be grateful if you 
could help me:

1- How can I check HDF5 file integrity in C/C++ (I prefer low level C)? I know 
there's a software called h5check, but I need a function to do that, not a 
software. In my application, it's not an option to execute h5check from my 
system.

2- How can I do a quick check in C/C++ to see whether the file is being 
written/modified/open for write? I looked in this 
link<https://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/H5.format.html#FileMetaData> which 
discusses metadata, but there doesn't seem to be a clear way through the C/C++ 
interface for me a to read the first two bits that give me that information. 
Could you please help with that with a simple example?

All the best,
Samer
