Add the deflate compression filter to the chunk processing pipeline.

Valid values for the compression level range from 0 (no compression) to 9 (best compression, slowest speed). Note that applying this function with level = 0 does not mean the filter is removed. It is still part of the filter pipeline, but no compression is performed. The filter will still need to be available on any system that reads a file created with this setting

Usage

H5Pset_deflate(h5plist, level)

Arguments

h5plist

Object of class H5IdComponent representing a dataset creation property list.

level

Integer giving the compression level to use. Valid values are from 0 to 9.
