The H5G_LINK procedure creates a link of the specified type. A link can only point to one of the three classes of named objects: group, dataset, and named datatype.
H5G_LINK, Loc_id, Current_Name, New_Name [, /SOFTLINK] [, NEW_LOC_ID=value]
An integer giving the file or group identifier.
String name of the existing object if link is a hard link. Can be anything for the soft link.
When creating a soft link Current_Name can be absolute or relative and may include path information.
For example, to create a link to an object that exists in the current group use the name of the object:
Object1
To create a link to an object that exists in a sub group of the current group use a relative path name:
Subgroup/Object1 or ./Subgroup/Object1
To create a link to an object that exists outside of the current group use an absolute path (a path beginning with the root group of the file, ‘/’):
/Group1/Object1
New string name for the object.
If set the link will be a soft link. The default is to create a hard link.
An integer giving the file or group identifier for the new link. This keyword is only used when linking to an object in a different file or group.
See the example under H5F_CREATE.
