How to create a HDF5 group with only attributes

Writing an attribute to a group that already has a dataset works fine:
h5create("sample.hdf5", "/group/dataset", 1:3)
h5writeatt("sample.hdf5", "/group/", "attribute", 3.14)
But I cannot create attributes in files that do not alredy exist:
h5create("sample2.hdf5", "/group1/dataset", 1:3)
h5writeatt("sample2.hdf5", "/group2/", "attribute", 3.14)
Error using hdf5lib2
The HDF5 library encountered an error and produced the following stack trace information:
H5G_loc_find_cb object 'group2' doesn't exist
(...)
There is no "create attribute" function as there is for datasets. I understand this constraint may be there for a purpose, but is there a workaround?
