recursiveHdf5

This is a header only c++11 library to have a simple interface to store data of nested classes recursively to hdf5. It is in particular useful in a case where one has a tree like structure of objects, where every node has a name and some data vectors that need to be stored into an hdf5 file.

Examples

The code of all examples can be found here. They can be built by running make.

To print the data generated by the mock classes in examples/data recursively run

make
./build/printRecursively

To store the data generated by the mock classes in examples/data recursively to a new or existing hdf5 file with the name 'test.pb' run

make
./build/storeRecursivelyToHdf5 test.pb

To store the data and the configuration that was used to generate the date by the mock classes in examples/data recursively to a new or existing hdf5 file with the name 'test.pb' run

make
touch test.conf
./build/storeConfigAndDataToHdf5 test.pb test.conf

Note: this will use the default configuration as defined in examples/storeRecursivelyToHdf5.cpp, to change the values of a parameter change the configuration file, you can see an example configuration file below.

rootDataConfig_ValueData1 = 9.9
rootDataConfig_LeafFactors = 12
rootDataConfig_LeafFactors = 13

(Notice, that by using this configuartion only create two leafs will be created below the root)
