VLType
A VLType instance
is used to describe a variable length (VLEN) data type.
Constructor: VLType(group, datatype, datatype_name)
VLType instances
should be created using the createVLType method of a Dataset or Group instance, not
using this class directly.
Parameters:
group - Group instance to associate with the VLEN datatype.
datatype - An numpy dtype object describing a the
component type for the variable length array.
datatype_name - a Python string containing a
description of the VLEN data type.
Returns:
a VLType
instance, which can be passed to the createVariable method
of a Dataset or Group instance.
The instance variables dtype and name should
not be modified by the user.
