Decompression of binary data #30

Open VasLem opened 7 months ago

VasLem commented 7 months ago

Hi, I have a use case where I need to fix a corrupted hdf5 file, and check the data contained in it. For this, I am need to override pyfive library to include the VBZ compression for binary data. Could you please provide me with instructions on how to decompress binary data, contained within an hdf5 file? Just for clarification, I am talking about dealing with a single field, not the entire file, so h5repack (which by the way leads to segmentation fault) is not applicable in my use case.
