Hi Samer,
I misunderstood your question. I thought you were interested in whether the file was opened for write. ?Binh-Minh ________________________________ From: Hdf-forum <[email protected]> on behalf of Samer Afach <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, July 18, 2015 11:28 AM To: HDF Users Discussion List Subject: Re: [Hdf-forum] Integrity check in C++ Dear Binh: Thank you very much for your quick response. I'm not sure though I understand how this will help. Should I assume that if the file was open as read-only, that this definitely means that the file is being access by some other writing authority and thus it's incomplete? Thanks.

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 _______________________________________________ Hdf-forum is for HDF software users discussion.
