HDF_DFSD_ADDDATA: Invalid HDF file or filename (test.hdf). [message #34334] Wed, 05 March 2003 11:05

Hi,

I wanted to create an old-style HDF4 datafile (with the single dataset
per file format). With the new HDF files, it appears to be impossible
to force the dimensions (scales) to be in the right position (even
though most new software has no problem reading it). So although the
old-style routines are obsolete, they are still available, and
necessary for an old graphics package I have to use. However, I cannot
get even a simple file to be written. Here's the error I get for a
simple test case:

IDL|uk2-> HDF_DFSD_ADDDATA,'test.hdf',dist(200)
% Compiled module: DIST.
% Loaded DLM: HDF.
% HDF_DFSD_ADDDATA: Invalid HDF file or filename (test.hdf).
% Execution halted at: $MAIN$
IDL|uk2->

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Pete
