Hello! Has anyone managed to get arrays of H5T_COMPOUND working in
pytables, or found a workaround? I just wrote a bunch of C to create my
nested array of compound data types, and I was all set to access this
data from pytables, when I read

http://www.pytables.org/docs/manual-2.0rc1/ape.html

which seems to suggest that doing something like

DATATYPE  H5T_COMPOUND {
    H5T_STD_U8LE "src";
    H5T_STD_U64LE "time";
    H5T_ARRAY { [4] 
        H5T_COMPOUND {
               H5T_STD_U8LE "filtid";
               H5T_STD_U8LE "valid";
               H5T_STD_I32LE "threshold";
               H5T_ARRAY { [32] H5T_STD_I32LE } "wave";
            } } "waveforms";
            }
(from h5dump) just isn't going to work. This is really a bummer as
pytables was one of the primary reasons I wanted to use HDF5 for this
project. If anyone can recommend any work-arounds, or similar data
organizations that work, I'd love to hear it. 

Thanks!
                        ...Eric
