Inherits from class H5T
. 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
H5T_COMPUND
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 data.frame
has to be an array. So please
use with care.
Object of class H5T_ARRAY
