osobhandClaude Opus 5.5 06625b7470 format: read global heap collections over Storage
GlobalHeapCollection::parse_in / parse_index_in read the header, check
the collection against the end of the file, and read the collection in
one bounded read; objects are indexed in it with file offsets, as before.
The &[u8] functions are wrappers. New test: collections with 4- and
8-byte lengths, one whose size runs past the file and one whose object
overruns it, at two offsets and cut at every length, give identical
results through a read_at-only CountingStorage.

clawhdf5-format

crates.io docs.rs

Pure-Rust HDF5 binary format parsing and writing — no C dependencies.

Features

  • Zero-copy superblock, object header, and B-tree parsing
  • Chunked dataset read/write with filter pipelines
  • no_std support (disable std feature)
  • Optional parallel reads via Rayon
  • SHA-256 provenance tracking

Usage

use clawhdf5_format::Superblock;

let data = std::fs::read("data.h5").unwrap();
let sb = Superblock::from_bytes(&data).unwrap();
println!("HDF5 version {}.{}", sb.version_major(), sb.version_minor());
