H5Gset_comment(hid_t loc_id,
const char *name,
const char *comment
)
H5Oset_comment.
H5Gset_comment sets the comment for the
object specified by loc_id and name
to comment.
Any previously existing comment is overwritten.
loc_id can specify any object in the file.
name can be one of the following:
— The name of the object relative to
loc_id
— An absolute name of the object,
starting from /, the file’s root group
— A dot (.),
if loc_id fully specifies the object
If comment is the empty string or a
null pointer, the comment message is removed from the object.
Comments should be relatively short, null-terminated, ASCII strings.
Comments can be attached to any object that has an object header, e.g., datasets, groups, and named datatypes, but not symbolic links.
hid_t loc_id |
IN: Identifier of the file, group, dataset, or named datatype. |
const char *name |
IN: Name of the object whose comment is to be
set or reset.
name must be '.' (dot) if loc_id
fully specifies the object for which the comment is to be set.
|
const char *comment |
IN: The new comment. |
