vlmopen_vox

NAME

SYNOPSIS

    #include <vlmeta.h>
    int vlmopen_vox(char *name, int dtype, int mode);

DESCRIPTION

    Vlmopen_vox opens a ParVox voxel data file and returns a handle that can be used by vlmget_vdim4d, vlmget_slice4d, and vlmget_voxel4d. The name parameter can be either the basename of the voxel data file, or the complete name, including the .vox.nc extension. For example, to open the file ocean.vox.nc, vlmopen_vox can be called via vlmopen_env("ocean", ...) or vlmopen("ocean.vox.nc", ...). The dtype parameter can take either VL_RAW or VL_NETCDF, indicating the data file is in either the raw binary format or the NetCDF format, respectively. The mode parameter is the NetCDF file mode, either NC_WRITE or NC_NOWRITE.

NOTES

    The raw binary format isn't fully supported in the current version of the VLMeta library.
