[BioC] copying rhdf5.dataset objects

[Laurent Gautier]

Dear all,

First of all, thanks to the answers to my previous post about this
package.

I am looking for the best way to copy (efficiently) hdf5.datasets
objects. To be more precise, I have a large array that is
a dataset reference. I would like to make a copy of this one,
the copy being a dataset reference to an another dataset.

I suspect that creating a new dataset then looping through the 
elements will be rather slow... but my inexperience with the
package does not let me think of an alternative way...

...any suggestion ?
