Name: H5Pget_virtual_vspace

Signature:
hid_t H5Pget_virtual_vspace( hid_t dcpl_id, size_t index )

Purpose:
Gets a dataspace identifier for the selection within the virtual dataset used in the mapping.

Description:
H5Pget_virtual_vspace takes the dataset creation property list for the virtual dataset, dcpl_id, and the mapping index, index, and returns a dataspace identifier for the selection within the virtual dataset used in the mapping.

Parameters:
hid_t dcpl_id   IN: The identifier of the virtual dataset creation property list.
size_t index   IN: Mapping index.
The value of index is 0 (zero) or greater and less than count   (0 ≤ index < count), where count is the number of mappings returned by H5Pget_virtual_count.

Returns:
Returns a valid dataspace identifier if successful; otherwise returns a negative value.

Fortran Interface: h5pget_virtual_vspace_f
