Hi Landon,
Is Section 7.4, Dataspaces and Data Transfer, in the HDF5 User's Guide helpful to you?

I am looking at H5Dread which is defined as: herr_t H5Dread( hid_t dataset_id, hid_t mem_type_id, hid_t mem_space_id, hid_t file_space_id, hid_t xfer_plist_id, void * buf ) For everything I've done so far I've just set the file_space_id to H5S_ALL. The API description discusses a little bit about file and memspace but I don't understand what the difference between them is. Thanks.
