This function creates an HDF AN data annotation of type Annotation_type for the object specified by its HDF tag, Object_tag, and its HDF reference number, Object_ref. Use HDF_AN_CREATEF to create a file annotation. Currently, the user must write to a newly-created annotation before creating another annotation of the same type. Creating two consecutive annotations of the same type causes the second call to HDF_AN_CREATE to return FAIL (-1).
Result = HDF_AN_CREATE(Annotation_id, Object_tag, Object_ref, Annotation_type)
Returns the data annotation identifier (Annotation_id) if successful or FAIL (-1) otherwise.
HDF_AN_ INTERFACE identifier returned by HDF_AN_START.
HDF tag of the object to be annotated.
HDF reference number of the object to be annotated.
Type of the data annotation.
The returned data annotation identifier can represent either a data label or a data description. Valid values for Annotation_type are:
