The Fortran90 and C++ APIs to HDF5
The HDF5 Library distribution includes FORTRAN90 and C++ APIs,
which are described in the following documents.
Fortran90 API
Fortran90 APIs in the Reference Manual: The current version of the HDF5 Reference Manual includes descriptions of the Fortran90 APIs to HDF5. Fortran subroutines exist in the H5, H5A, H5D, H5E, H5F, H5G, H5I, H5P, H5R, H5S, H5T, and H5Z interfaces and are described on those pages. In general, each Fortran subroutine performs exactly the same task as the corresponding C function.
Whereas Fortran subroutines had been described on separate pages in prior releases, those descriptions were fully integrated into the body of the reference manual for HDF5 Release 1.6.2 (and mostly so for Release 1.6.1).
HDF5 Fortran90 Flags and Datatypes lists the flags employed in the Fortran90 interface and contains a pointer to the HDF5 Fortran90 datatypes.
