Detailed Description

Read an image from a file and return an image object.

class DNeXusGroup represents an attribute in the NeXus tree.

If timeout > 0 wait timeout milliseconds for file to be created. Caveat: There is no way to figure out when writing to a file ALBULA is waiting for is finished. Hence write image first to a temporary file and rename it atomically to fileName. (rename, mv are atomic operations on unix systems)

Parameters

fileName	Path to file from where the image is read.
timeout	Wait timeout milliseconds for file to be created (timeout == 0: return immediately, timeout < 0: wait forever)

Returns

DImage
