Hello Yingchao,

You compiler flags should include -DH5_USE_16_API to compile FLASH with 
HDF5, apparently that is not the case in this compilation.

I think you will need to adjust the Makefile.h.

Not sure how his relates to your error - the interface to the function 
H5Gopen appears to have changed earlier, before release 1.8.0, according 
to https://support.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/RM/RM_H5G.html#Group-Open .
