Hi, I'm familiarizing myself with the HDF5 C++ interface. I'm having trouble understanding why H5Location::getObjType() takes a void* reference to an object when I would expect it to refer to "this". Same holds for get/setComment(), etc. Seems they should be static methods if we're passing in the object pointer. What am I missing?
Also, when I specify a name (char*) to a method like H5Location::reference(), is it understood that it is a relative path from the current group (i.e., "this", assuming it is a group)? What if the name starts with '/'? I want to stay entirely in C++. Oscar
