Hi Ed,You should be able to use strlen function on each element of your array to get a length of each string.

HDF Folk: If I have a attribute which is a 1D array of string, how, in general, do I find out the length of each string in the array, so that I can allocate space for it? If I use H5Sget_simple_extent_ndims then I get the number of strings in the array, but how do I get the length of each string? Also, if I read it into a buffer, is each string null-terminated? Is there some usual way to store an array of strings in C for HDF5 users? Thanks! Ed -- Ed Hartnett -- ed@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
