 * Function:    H5T_register

 * Purpose:    Register a hard or soft conversion function for a data type
 *        conversion path.  The path is specified by the source and
 *        destination data types SRC_ID and DST_ID (for soft functions
 *        only the class of these types is important). If FUNC is a

 *        applies and is used for any new path to which it applies as
 *        long as that path doesn't have a hard function.

/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Function:    H5T_path_find
 *
 * Purpose:    Finds the path which converts type SRC_ID to type DST_ID,
 *        creating a new path if necessary.  If FUNC is non-zero then
 *        it is set as the hard conversion function for that path
 *        regardless of whether the path previously existed. Changing
 *        the conversion function of a path causes statistics to be
 *        reset to zero after printing them.  The NAME is used only
 *        when creating a new path and is just for debugging.
 *
 *        If SRC and DST are both null pointers then the special no-op
 *        conversion path is used.  This path is always stored as the
 *        first path in the path table.
 *
 * Return:    Success:    Pointer to the path, valid until the path
 *                database is modified.
 *
 *            Failure:    NULL if the path does not exist and no
 *                function can be found to apply to the new
 *                path.
 *
 * Programmer:    Robb Matzke
 *        Tuesday, January 13, 1998
 *
 * Modifications:
 *              Added a parameter IS_API to indicate whether to an API
 *              function issued a call to this function.  If a API
 *              function like H5Tregister() is calling this function to
 *              register a new hard conversion function, IS_API is TRUE
 *              and the old path is replaced.  If a private function like
 *              H5T__init_package() is trying to register hard conversions,
 *              IS_API is FALSE and the old hard path is not replaced.

 *        Robb Matzke, 1999-06-16
 *        Added support for non-zero strides. If BUF_STRIDE is non-zero
 *        then convert one value at each memory location advancing
 *        BUF_STRIDE bytes each time; otherwise assume both source and
 *        destination values are packed.
 *
 *              Quincey Koziol, 1999-07-01

 *              conversion routine.
 *
 *              Robb Matzke, 2000-05-17
 *              Added the BKG_STRIDE argument which gets passed to all the
 *              conversion functions. If BUF_STRIDE is non-zero then each
 *              data element is at a multiple of BUF_STRIDE bytes in BUF
 *              (on both input and output). If BKG_STRIDE is also set then
 *              the BKG buffer is used in such a way that temporary space
 *              for each element is aligned on a BKG_STRIDE byte boundary.
 *              If either BUF_STRIDE or BKG_STRIDE are zero then the BKG
 *              buffer will be accessed as though it were a packed array
 *              of destination datatype.

 NAME
    H5T_set_loc
 PURPOSE
    Recursively mark any datatypes as on disk/in memory
 USAGE
    htri_t H5T_set_loc(dt,f,loc)
        H5T_t *dt;              IN/OUT: Pointer to the datatype to mark

        H5T_vlen_type_t loc     IN: location of type

 RETURNS
    One of two values on success:
        TRUE - If the location of any vlen types changed
        FALSE - If the location of any vlen types is the same
    <0 is returned on failure
 DESCRIPTION
    Recursively descends any VL or compound datatypes to mark all VL datatypes
    as either on disk or in memory.
