+ Currently, VDS source files must be in the active directory to be
+ found by the virtual file. Adding the option of a prefix to be set
+ on the virtual file, using a data access property list (DAPL),
+ allows the source files to located at an absolute or relative path
+ to the virtual file.

+ herr_t H5Pget_vds_file_cache_size(hid_t plist_id, unsigned *vds_size);
+ The prefix can also be set with an environment variable, HDF5_VDS_PREFIX.
