Thorn IOHDF5Util provides functionality to implement HDF5 I/O in Cactus.
Thorn IOHDF5Util provides common routines which can be used to implement Cactus I/O methods for input/output of Cactus variables in the HDF5 standard (Hierarchical Data Format Version 5).
Currently, IOHDF5Util is inherited by the IOHDF5 and IOStreamHDF5 I/O thorns which share its routines to implement their own I/O methods doing parallel HDF5 file I/O and online HDF5 data streaming.
The Cactus distribution does not contain the HDF5 header files and library which is used by thorn IOHDF5Util. So you need to configure it as an external software package via:
make <configuration>-config HDF5=yes [HDF5_DIR=<path to HDF5 package>]
The configuration script will look in some default places for an installed HDF5 package. If nothing is found this way you can explicitly specify it with the HDF5_DIR configure variable.

This section lists all the variables which are assigned storage by thorn CactusPUGHIO/IOHDF5Util. Storage can either last for the duration of the run (Always means that if this thorn is activated storage will be assigned, Conditional means that if this thorn is activated storage will be assigned for the duration of the run if some condition is met), or can be turned on for the duration of a schedule function.
