+ <dd><code>H5Pset_vlen_mem_manager</code> sets the memory manager for
+ variable-length datatype allocation in <code>H5Dread</code>
+ and free in <code>H5Dvlen_reclaim</code>.
+ <p>
+ The <code>alloc</code> and <code>free</code> parameters
+ identify the memory management routines to be used.
+ If the user has defined custom memory management routines,
+ <code>alloc</code> and/or <code>free</code> should be set to make
+ those routine calls (i.e., the name of the routine is used as
+ the value of the parameter);
+ if the user prefers to use the system's <code> malloc</code>
+ and/or <code>free</code>, the <code>alloc</code> and

+ <em>void</em> *<code>free_info</code>) ;
+ <br>
+ The <code>alloc_info</code> and <code>free_info</code> parameters
+ can be used to pass along any required information to
+ the user's memory management routines.
+ <p>
+ In summary, if the user has defined custom memory management
+ routines, the name(s) of the routines are passed in the
+ <code>alloc</code> and <code>free</code> parameters and the
+ custom routines' parameters are passed in the
+ <code>alloc_info</code> and <code>free_info</code> parameters.
+ If the user wishes to use the system <code> malloc</code> and
+ <code>free</code> functions, the <code>alloc</code> and/or
+ <code>free</code> parameters are set to <code> NULL</code>
+ and the <code>alloc_info</code> and <code>free_info</code>
+ parameters are ignored.
