HDF5.jl package has been split into the new HDF5 and JLD package
see here: https://github.com/JuliaLang/JLD.jl
Saving and loading julia variables while saving native types is now possible with JLD
According to doc:
JLD, for which files usually have the extension .jld, is a widely used format for storing data with the Julia programming language. JLD is a specific βdialectβ of HDF5, a cross-platform, multilingual data storage format most commonly used for scientific data. Compared to "plain" HDF5, JLD files automatically add attributes and naming conventions to store type information for each object.
