hdf5
Naive cgo
bindings for the C-API
of hdf5
.
WIP: No stable API for this package yet.
NOTE that starting with Go >= 1.6, one needs to run with GODEBUG=cgocheck=0
to disable the new stricter CGo
rules.
Example
-
Hello world example: cmd/test-go-hdf5/main.go
-
Writing/reading an
hdf5
with compound data: cmd/test-go-cpxcmpd/main.go
Note
- Only version 1.8.x of
HDF5
is supported. - In order to use
HDF5
functions in more than one goroutine simultaneously, you must build the HDF5 library with threading support. Many binary distributions (RHEL/centos/Fedora packages, etc.) do not have this enabled. Therefore, you must build HDF5 yourself on these systems.
Known problems
- the
h5pt
packet table interface is broken. - support for structs with slices and strings as fields is broken
