h5lite 2.1.1.1 (2026-05-18)

Fixed warnings introduced by GCC 16: ‘%d’ directive output may be truncated in utils.c.

New functions: h5_compression() and h5_inspect().
Added support for a variety of compression codecs - see vignette('compression').
Added support for partial reading - see vignette('partial-reading').
h5_length() and h5_dim() now return numeric values instead of integer to support very large datasets.
