Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
Is there a way to get the path to the current opened group and
object/data set ?<br>
Is there a way to inquire if a given group/data set exists without
trying to create it (which displays an HDF error message and return
NX_ERROR) ?<br>
Is there a way to inquire if a given group/data has been opened without
trying to open it (which displays an HDF error message and return
NX_ERROR) ?<br>
Perhaps the easiest solution for me is to always use absolute path to
objects, but it would be nice to have some function like:<br>
<ul>
<li>NXisgroup()</li>
<li>NXisopengroup</li>
<li>NXisdata()</li>
<li>NXisopendata</li>
</ul>
or alternatively some NXinquiregroup and NXinquiredata that return a
structure with fields (for instance):<br>
<ul>
<li>exists</li>
<li>opened</li>
<li>compressed</li>
<li>class</li>
<li>rank</li>
<li>data type<br>
</li>
<li>size/dimensions</li>
<li>name</li>
<li>...</li>
</ul>
Thanks for NeXus API...<br>
