Binsparse C Reference Implementation

This library is a reference implementation of the binsparse Binary Sparse Format Specification written using C.

Binsparse is a cross-platform, embeddable format for storing sparse matrices. This library currently only uses HDF5 as the underlying binary container format.

C Binsparse Interface

This library provides a C interface for reading and writing binsparse matrices. The library uses runtime polymorphism to allow reading and writing matries of different types and formats.

#include <binsparse/binsparse.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
  bsp_matrix_t mat = bsp_read_matrix("chesapeake.bsp.hdf5");

  if (mat.format == BSP_COO) {
    float* values = mat.values.data;
    int* rowind = mat.indices_0.data;
    int* colind = mat.indices_1.data;

    for (size_t i = 0; i < mat.nnz; i++) {
      printf("%d, %d: %f\n", rowind[i], colind[i], values[i]);
    }
  } else {
    printf("Matrix format read was %s, format currently not handled.\n",
           bsp_get_matrix_format_string(mat.format));
  }

  return 0;
}

Building

This library uses CMake. It should be able to automatically download and link all dependencies except for:

  • A recent C compiler.
  • libhdf5

HDF5 should be automatically detected, provided an installation is present on the system.
