Appending an existing dataset [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

UNCLASSIFIED

Hello,

            I am fairly new to the HDF5 file format, and I am having
trouble appending a dataset within my file, using Java. I create a
scalar dataset with the createScalarDS() method, writing some initial
data, at the moment an array of 10 strings to it. This all works fine. I
then want to add another array of strings to the existing dataset, given
that I have a reference to that dataset. When I use the write() method
it overwrites the data that is already there. Any help would be most
appreciated.

Cheers

Simon
