Procedure:
H5A_DELETE (loc_id, attr_name)
Signature:
herr_t H5Adelete(
hid_t loc_id,
const char *attr_name
)
Fortran90 Interface: h5adelete_f
SUBROUTINE h5adelete_f(obj_id, name, hdferr)
IMPLICIT NONE
INTEGER(HID_T), INTENT(IN) :: obj_id ! Object identifier
CHARACTER(LEN=*), INTENT(IN) :: name ! Attribute name
INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: hdferr ! Error code:
! 0 on success and -1 on failure
END SUBROUTINE h5adelete_f
Parameters:
hid_t loc_id | IN: Identifier of the file, dataset, group, or named datatype to have the attribute deleted from |
const char *attr_name | IN: Name of the attribute to delete |
Description:
H5A_DELETE removes the attribute specified by its name, attr_name, from a file, dataset, group, or named datatype. This function should not be used when attribute identifiers are open on loc_id as it may cause the internal indexes of the attributes to change and future writes to the open attributes to produce incorrect results.
Returns:
Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise returns a negative value.
