Open HDF5 file
file_id = H5F.open(filename)
file_id = H5F.open(name,flags,fapl_id)
file_id = H5F.open(URL)
file_id = H5F.open(URL,flags,fapl_id)
file_id = H5F.open(filename) opens the
file specified by filename for read-only access
and returns the file identifier, file_id.
file_id = H5F.open(name,flags,fapl_id) opens the file specified by
name, returning the file identifier, file_id.
Specify the file access flags flags as one of the these character
vectors or string scalars, or their numeric equivalents:
'H5F_ACC_RDWR' | read-write mode |
'H5F_ACC_RDONLY' | read-only mode |
The file access property list, fapl_id, may
be specified as 'H5P_DEFAULT', in which case the
default I/O settings are used.
file_id = H5F.open(URL) opens the HDF5 file at a remote location,
specified by a uniform resource locator (URL), for read-only access and returns the file
identifier file_id.
For more information, see Work with Remote Data.
file_id = H5F.open(URL,flags,fapl_id) opens the file at the
remote location specified by a URL, returning the file identifier
file_id.
flags specifies file access flags.
Open a file in read-only mode with default file access properties.
fid = H5F.open('example.h5');
H5F.close(fid); Open a file in read-write mode.
srcFile = fullfile(matlabroot,'toolbox','matlab','demos','example.h5'); copyfile(srcFile,'myfile.h5'); fileattrib('myfile.h5','+w'); fid = H5F.open('myfile.h5','H5F_ACC_RDWR','H5P_DEFAULT'); H5F.close(fid);
Open a file in Amazon S3™ in read-only mode with default file access properties.
fid = H5F.open('s3://bucketname/path_to_file/example.h5');
H5F.close(fid); H5F.open does not support reading or writing to files
stored remotely in HDFS™ when you specify the file access flag as
'H5F_ACC_RDWR'.
