H5Pget_filter2(
hid_t plist_id,
unsigned idx,
unsigned int *flags,
size_t *cd_nelmts,
unsigned cd_values[],
size_t namelen,
char name[],
unsigned *filter_config
)
H5Pget_filter2 returns information about a
filter, specified by its filter number, in a filter pipeline,
specified by the property list with which it is associated.
plist_id must be a dataset or group creation property list.
idx is a value between zero and
N-1, as described in
H5Pget_nfilters.
The function will return a negative value if the filter number
is out of range.
The structure of the flags argument is discussed
in H5Pset_filter.
On input, cd_nelmts indicates the number of entries
in the cd_values array, as allocated by the caller;
on return,cd_nelmts contains the number of values
defined by the filter.
If name is a pointer to an array of at least
namelen bytes, the filter name will be copied
into that array. The name will be null terminated if
namelen is large enough. The filter name returned
will be the name appearing in the file, the name registered
for the filter, or an empty string.
filter_config is the bit field described in
H5Zget_filter_info.
