Hello,

I'd like to subscribe to this email list. I'm not sure if it is appropriate to ask a technical question here, but here is one anyway (I hope it's OK):

I have a question about the Python Nexusformat/NeXpy nxload method.

I seem to have problems reading data entries that have been defined using links. That is, the method returns an NXlink object rather than the actual data:

n.entry1.default.ic1monitor
Out[143]: NXlink('['/entry1/instrument/ic1monitor/ic1monitor']')

If I use h5py directly then I get the dataset:

h['/entry1/default/ic1monitor']
Out[144]: <HDF5 dataset "ic1monitor": shape (10001,), type "<f8">

Is this expected or am I doing something wrong? I read in the manual that all data are specified via links so there is no distinction between the 'original' data and a link. Is that right?

Thank you for your help.

Regards,
Steve Collins (Diamond Light Source)

P.S. I can send you the data files and Python code of course, if that helps.
