hdf5info — Legacy alias for HDF5 metadata traversal.
hdf5info(filename) and hdf5info(filename, location) are legacy compatibility names for h5info.
Syntax
hdf5info(filename)How hdf5info works
- Returns the same metadata structure as
h5info. - Traversal is recursive for groups.
Example
Inspect a legacy HDF5 file
info = hdf5info('measurements.h5');Using hdf5info with coding agents
Open a RunMat example with live inputs, then ask the agent to explain how hdf5info changes the result.
Run a small hdf5info example, explain the result, then change one input and compare the output.
