H5T_ARRAY-class

H5T_ARRAY

Inherits from class <code>H5T</code>. This class represents an array. As datasets in HDF5
are itself already arrays, this datatype is not needed there. It is mostly useful when a column in a
<code>H5T_COMPUND</code> object is intended to be an array. This however makes it difficult to work
with such objects in R - as a column of the corresponding <code>data.frame</code> has to be an array. So please
use with care.

'HDF5' is a data model, library and file format for storing
and managing large amounts of data. This package provides a nearly
feature complete, object oriented wrapper for the 'HDF5' API
<https://support.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/RM/RM_H5Front.html> using R6 classes.
Additionally, functionality is added so that 'HDF5' objects behave very
similar to their corresponding R counterparts.
