Detailed Description

A class representing an HDF5 property hid.

Synopsis

This class wraps an HDF5 property hid (hdf5 id). It offers two benefits:

The most important is resource management. In case of an exception, the hid will automatically be closed by the destructor.
A hid is a kind of pointer and should not be copied. These classes forbid making a copy, but make it possible to use them in a shared pointer context.
