group.rs

//! Group support.
//!
//! Groups are containers for datasets and other groups, forming a
//! hierarchical namespace within an HDF5 file.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use rust_hdf5::H5File;
//!
//! let file = H5File::create("groups.h5").unwrap();
//! let root = file.root_group();
//! let grp = root.create_group("detector").unwrap();
//! let ds = grp.new_dataset::<f32>()
//!     .shape(&[10])
//!     .create("temperature")
//!     .unwrap();
//! ```
