Class Description Data Members Methods
h5enum
Defines an
enumerated type;
you can specify
the enumerations
(text strings) and
the values they
represent
Data –
Multidimensional
array
Name –Textstring
specifying name
of the object
EnumNames –Text
string specifying the
enumerations, that
is, the text strings
that represent values
EnumValues –
values associated
with enumerations
E = hdf5.h5enum
creates an h5enumobject.
E = hdf5.h5enum(eNames,
eVals) creates an h5enum
object, where eNames is a cell
array of strings, and eVals is
vector of integers. eNames and
eVals must have the same
number of elements.
defineEnum(E, eNames,
eVals) defines the set of
enumerations with the integer
values they represent where
eNames is a cell array of
strings, and eVals is vector
of integers. eNames and
eVals must have the same
number of elements.
enumdata = getString(E)
returns a cell array containing the
names of the enumerations, where
E is an h5enum object.
setData(E, eData) sets
the value of the object’s
Data member, where E is
an h5enum object and eData
is a vector of integers.
setEnumNames(E, eNames)
specifies the enumerations, where
E is an h5enum object and eNames
is a cell array of strings.

setEnumValues(E,
eVals) specifies the value
associated with each
enumeration, where E is an
h5enum object and eVals
is a vector of integers.
