Hello,
Is it possible to have a table with duplicate column names? I tried
modifying this table example
http://www.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF5/current/src/unpacked/hl/examples/ex_table_01.c
to have two columns named "Longitude". I got an error about duplicate
names. Is there any way around this? It is ok if I can no longer
look up columns by name.
Thank you,
Walter Landry
Dear Walter Landry,
you would probably break several parts of the library if this were
allowed, or one would need a mechanism that you cannot call
'write_fields_name' once you created a table with non-unique names.
This in turn would create a lot of overhead. It's probably simpler to
give the second entry a unique name.
Best,
Tim
