+    <dd><em>herr_t</em> <code>H5garbage_collect</code>(<em>void</em>)
+<dt><strong>Purpose:</strong>
+    <dd>Garbage collects on all free-lists of all types.
+<dt><strong>Description:</strong>
+    <dd><code>H5garbage_collect</code> walks through all the garbage 
+        collection routines of the library, freeing any unused memory. 
+        <p>
+        It is not required that <code>H5garbage_collect</code> be called 
+        at any particular time; it is only necessary in certain situations 
+        where the application has performed actions that cause the library 
+        to allocate many objects.  The application should call
+        <code>H5garbage_collect</code> if it eventually releases those 
+        objects and wants to reduce the memory used by the library from
+        the peak usage required.  
+        <p>
+        The library automatically garbage collects all the free lists 
+        when the application ends.
+<dt><strong>Parameters:</strong>
+    <dl>
+        <dt>None.
+    </dl>
+<dt><strong>Returns:</strong>
+    <dd>Returns a non-negative value if successful;
+        otherwise returns a negative value.
