DFSD - Single-file Scientific Data Interface

Note: This interface is deprecated.

DFSDadddata/dsadata -- Appends a scientific dataset in its entirety to an existing HDF file if the file exists. If not, a new file is created.

DFSDclear/dsclear -- Clears all values set by DFSDset* routines.

DFSDendslab/dseslab -- Terminates a sequence of slab calls started by DFSDstartslab by closing the file.

DFSDendslice/dseslc -- Terminates the write operation after storing a slice of data in a scientific dataset.

DFSDgetcal/dsgcal -- Retrieves the calibration record, if there is one, attached to a scientific dataset.

DFSDgetdata/dsgdata -- Reads the next dataset in the file.

DFSDgetdatalen/dsgdaln -- Retrieves the lengths of the label, unit, format, and coordinate system strings.

DFSDgetdatastrs/dsgdast -- Retrieves information about the label, unit, and format attribute strings associated with the data.

DFSDgetdimlen/dsgdiln -- Retrieves the length of the label, unit, and format attribute strings associated with the specified dimension.

DFSDgetdims/dsgdims -- Retrieves the number of dimensions (rank) of the dataset and the sizes of the dimensions (dimsizes) for the next scientific dataset in the file.

DFSDgetdimscale/dsgdisc -- Gets the scale corresponding to the specified dimension.

DFSDgetdimstrs/dsgdist -- Retrieves the label, unit, and format attribute strings corresponding to the specified dimension.

DFSDgetfillvalue/dsgfill -- Retrieves the fill value of a DFSD scientific dataset.

DFSDgetNT/dsgnt -- Retrieves the data type of the next dataset to be read.

DFSDgetrange/dsgrang -- Retrieves the maximum and minimum values stored with the scientific dataset.

DFSDgetslice/dsgslc -- Reads part of a scientific dataset from a file.

DFSDlastref/dslref -- Retrieves the most recent reference number used in writing or reading a scientific dataset.

DFSDndatasets/dsnum -- Returns the number of scientific datasets in the file.

DFSDpre32sdg/dsp32sd -- Tests if the scientific dataset with the specified reference number was created by an HDF library earlier than version 3.2.

DFSDputdata/dspdata -- Writes a scientific data and related information to an HDF file.

DFSDputslice/dspslc -- Writes part of a scientific dataset to a file.

DFSDreadref/dsrref -- Specifies the reference number for the dataset to be read during the next read operation.

DFSDreadslab/dsrslab -- Reads a slab of data from any scientific dataset.

DFSDrestart/dsfirst -- Causes the next read command to be read from the first scientific dataset in the file, rather than the scientific dataset following the one that was most recently read.

DFSDsetcal/dsscal -- Sets the calibration information associated with data

DFSDsetdatastrs/dssdast -- Sets the label, unit, format, and coordinate system for the next dataset written to file.

DFSDsetdims/dssdims -- Sets the rank and dimension sizes for all subsequent scientific datasets written to the file.

DFSDsetdimscale/dssdisc -- Defines the scale for a dimension.

DFSDsetdimstrs/dssdist -- Sets the label, unit, and format strings corresponding to the specified dimension.

DFSDsetfillvalue/dssfill -- Set the value used to fill in any unwritten location in a scientific dataset.

DFSDsetlengths/dsslens -- Sets the maximum lengths for the strings that will hold labels, units, formats, and the name of the coordinate system.

DFSDsetNT/dssnt -- Sets the data type of the data to be written in the next write operation.

DFSDsetrange/dssrang -- Stores the specified maximum and minimum data values.

DFSDstartslab/dssslab -- Prepares the DFSD interface to write a slab of data to a scientific dataset.

DFSDstartslice/dssslc -- Prepares the interface to write a data slice to the specified file.

DFSDwriteref/dswref -- Specifies the reference number, ref, of the dataset to be overwritten next by DFSDputdata or DFSDadddata .

DFSDwriteslab/dswslab -- Writes a slab of data to a scientific dataset.
