                                    operator function
 RETURNS
        Returns a negative value if an error occurs, the return value of the
    last operator if it was non-zero (which can be a negative value), or zero
    if all attributes were processed.

 DESCRIPTION
        This function interates over the attributes of dataset or group
    specified with 'loc_id' & 'obj_name'.  For each attribute of the object,
    the 'op_data' and some additional information (specified below) are passed
    to the 'op' function.  The iteration begins with the '*idx'
    object in the group and the next attribute to be processed by the operator
    is returned in '*idx'.
        The operation receives the ID for the group or dataset being iterated
    over ('loc_id'), the name of the current attribute about the object
    ('attr_name'), the attribute's "info" struct ('ainfo') and the pointer to
    the operator data passed in to H5Aiterate2 ('op_data').  The return values
    from an operator are:
        A. Zero causes the iterator to continue, returning zero when all
            attributes have been processed.
        B. Positive causes the iterator to immediately return that positive
            value, indicating short-circuit success.  The iterator can be
            restarted at the next attribute.
        C. Negative causes the iterator to immediately return that value,
            indicating failure.  The iterator can be restarted at the next
            attribute.

                                    operator function
        hid_t lapl_id;          IN: Link access property list
 RETURNS
        Returns a negative value if an error occurs, the return value of the
    last operator if it was non-zero (which can be a negative value), or zero
    if all attributes were processed.

 DESCRIPTION
        This function interates over the attributes of dataset or group
    specified with 'loc_id' & 'obj_name'.  For each attribute of the object,
    the 'op_data' and some additional information (specified below) are passed
    to the 'op' function.  The iteration begins with the '*idx'
    object in the group and the next attribute to be processed by the operator
    is returned in '*idx'.
        The operation receives the ID for the group or dataset being iterated
    over ('loc_id'), the name of the current attribute about the object
    ('attr_name'), the attribute's "info" struct ('ainfo') and the pointer to
    the operator data passed in to H5Aiterate_by_name ('op_data').  The return values
    from an operator are:
        A. Zero causes the iterator to continue, returning zero when all
            attributes have been processed.
        B. Positive causes the iterator to immediately return that positive
            value, indicating short-circuit success.  The iterator can be
            restarted at the next attribute.
        C. Negative causes the iterator to immediately return that value,
            indicating failure.  The iterator can be restarted at the next
            attribute.

        This function removes an attribute from an object, using the IDX_TYPE
    index to delete the N'th attribute in ORDER direction in the index.  The
    object is specified relative to the LOC_ID with the OBJ_NAME path.  To
    remove an attribute on the object specified by LOC_ID, pass in "." for
    OBJ_NAME.  The link access property list, LAPL_ID, controls aspects of
    the group hierarchy traversal when using the OBJ_NAME to locate the final
    object to operate on.
