* \param[in] name The name of the link to check
* \lapl_id
*
* \return Returns a positive value if the object pointed to by

* \return Returns 0 if the object pointed to by
* the \p loc_id and \p name combination does not exist.
* \return Returns a negatvie value when the function fails.
*
* \details H5Oexists_by_name() allows an application to determine whether
* the link \p name in the group or file specified with \p loc_id
* resolves to an HDF5 object to open or if the link dangles. The
* link may be of any type, but hard links will always resolve
* to objects and do not need to be verified.
*
* Note that H5Oexists_by_name() verifies only that the target
* object exists. If \p name includes either a relative path or
* an absolute path to the target link, intermediate steps
* along the path must be verified before the existence of
* the target link can be safely checked. If the path is not
* verified and an intermediate element of the path does not
* exist, H5Oexists_by_name() will fail. The example in the next
* paragraph illustrates one step-by-step method for verifying
* the existence of a link with a relative or absolute path.
*
* \par Example
* Use the following steps to verify the existence of
* the link \c datasetD in the \c group group1/group2/softlink_to_group3/,
* where \c group1 is a member of the group specified by \c loc_id:
*
* \par
* - First use H5Lexists() to verify that a link named \c group1 exists.
* - If \c group1 exists, use H5Oexists_by_name() to verify that the
* link \c group1 resolves to an object.
* - If \c group1 exists, use H5Lexists() again, this time with name
* set to \c group1/group2, to verify that the link \c group2 exists
* in \c group1.
* - If the \c group2 link exists, use H5Oexists_by_name() to verify
* that \c group1/group2 resolves to an object.
* - If \c group2 exists, use H5Lexists() again, this time with name
* set to \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3, to verify that the
* link \c softlink_to_group3 exists in \c group2.
* - If the \c softlink_to_group3 link exists, use H5Oexists_by_name()
* to verify that \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3 resolves to
* an object.
* - If \c softlink_to_group3 exists, you can now safely use H5Lexists
* with name set to \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3/datasetD to
* verify that the target link, \c datasetD, exists.
* - And finally, if the link \c datasetD exists, use H5Oexists_by_name
* to verify that \c group1/group2/softlink_to_group3/datasetD
* resolves to an object.
*
* \par
* If the link to be verified is specified with an absolute path,
* the same approach should be used, but starting with the first
* link in the file’s root group. For instance, if \c datasetD
* were in \c /group1/group2/softlink_to_group3, the first call to
* H5Lexists() would have name set to \c /group1.
*
* \par
* Note that this is an outline and does not include all necessary
* details. Depending on circumstances, for example, an application
* may need to verify the type of an object also.
*
* \warning \Bold{Failure Modes:}
* \warning If \p loc_id and \p name both exist but the combination does not
* resolve to an object, the function will return 0 (zero);
* the function does not fail in this case.
* \warning If either the location or the link specified by the \p loc_id
* and \p name combination does not exist, the function will fail,
* returning a negative value.
* \warning Note that verifying the existence of an object within an HDF5
* file is a multistep process. An application can be certain the
* object does not exist only if H5Lexists() and H5Oexists_by_name()
* have been used to verify the existence of the links and groups
* in the hierarchy above that object. The example above, in the
* function description, provides a step-by-step description of
* that verification process.

* points to.
*
* H5Olink() is designed for two purposes:
* - To create the first hard link to an object that has just

* H5Tcommit_anon().
* - To add additional structure to an existing
* file so that, for example, an object can be shared among
* multiple groups.
*
* \p lcpl and \p lapl are the link creation and access property lists
* associated with the new link.
*
* \par Example:
* To create a new link to an object while simultaneously creating
* missing intermediate groups: Suppose that an application must
* create the group C with the path /A/B01/C but may not know
* at run time whether the groups A and B01 exist. The following
* code ensures that those groups are created if they are missing:
* \par
* \code
*
* // Creates a link creation property list (LCPL).
* hid_t lcpl_id = H5Pcreate(H5P_LINK_CREATE);
*
* // Sets "create missing intermediate groups" property in that LCPL.
* int status = H5Pset_create_intermediate_group(lcpl_id, TRUE);
*
* // Creates a group without linking it into the file structure.
* hid_t gid = H5Gcreate_anon(file_id, H5P_DEFAULT, H5P_DEFAULT);
*
* // Links group into file structure.
* status = H5Olink(gid, file_id, "/A/B01/C", lcpl_id, H5P_DEFAULT);
*
* \endcode
*
* \par
* Note that unless the object is intended to be temporary,
* the H5O_LINK call is mandatory if an object created with one
* of the H5*_CREATE_ANON functions (or with H5T_COMMIT_ANON)
* is to be retained in the file; without an H5O_LINK call,
* the object will not be linked into the HDF5 file structure
* and will be deleted when the file is closed.

* - of the flags specified by the object creation property list
* is described in H5Pset_copy_object().
*
* These property lists or flags can be modified to govern the
* behavior of H5Ocopy() as follows:
*
* - A flag controlling the creation of intermediate groups that
* may not yet exist is set in the link creation property list
* \p lcpl_id with H5Pset_create_intermediate_group().
*
* - Copying of committed datatypes can be tuned through the use
* of H5Pset_copy_object(), H5Padd_merge_committed_dtype_path(),
* H5Pset_mcdt_search_cb(), and related functions.
*
* - Flags controlling other aspects of object copying are set in the
* object copy property list \p ocpypl_id with H5Pset_copy_object().
*
* H5Ocopy() will always try to make a copy of the object specified
* in \p src_name.
*
* - If the object specified by \p src_name is a group containing a
* soft or external link, the default is that the new copy will
* contain a soft or external link with the same value as the
* original. See H5Pset_copy_object() for optional settings.
*
* - If the path specified in \p src_name is or contains a soft link
* or an external link, H5Ocopy() will copy the target object.
* Use H5Lcopy() if the intent is to create a new soft or external
* link with the same value as the original link.
*
* H5Ocopy() can be used to copy an object in an HDF5 file. If
* an object has been changed since it was opened, it should be
* written back to the file before using H5Ocopy(). The object

*

*
* \p idx_type specifies the index to be used. If the links in
* a group have not been indexed by the index type, they will
* first be sorted by that index then the iteration will begin;

* \indexes
*
* Note that the index type passed in \p idx_type is a
* best effort setting. If the application passes in
* a value indicating iteration in creation order and a group is
* encountered that was not tracked in creation order, that group
* will be iterated over in alpha-numeric order by name, or
* name order. (Name order is the native order
* used by the HDF5 library and is always available.)
*

* processed with no operator returning non-zero.
*
* \return On failure, returns a negative value if something goes wrong
* within the library, or the first negative value returned by
* an operator.
*
* \details H5Ovisit_by_name3() is a recursive iteration function to visit
* the object specified by the \p loc_id / \p obj_name parameter
* pair and, if that object is a group, all objects in and below it
* in an HDF5 file, thus providing a mechanism for an application to
* perform a common set of operations across all of those objects or
* a dynamically selected subset. For non-recursive iteration across
* the members of a group, see H5Literate2().
*
* The object serving as the root of the iteration is specified
* by the \p loc_id / \p obj_name parameter pair. \p loc_id specifies
* a file or an object in a file; if \p loc_id is an attribute identifier,
* the object where the attribute is attached will be used.
* \p obj_name specifies either an object in the file (with an absolute
* name based in the file’s root group) or an object name relative
* to \p loc_id. If \p loc_id fully specifies the object that is to serve
* as the root of the iteration, \p obj_name should be '\c .' (a dot).
* (Note that when \p loc_id fully specifies the object that is to serve
* as the root of the iteration, the user may wish to consider
* using H5Ovisit3() instead of H5Ovisit_by_name3().)
*
* Two parameters are used to establish the iteration: \p idx_type
* and \p order.
*
* \p idx_type specifies the index to be used. If the links in
* a group have not been indexed by the index type, they will
* first be sorted by that index then the iteration will begin;
* if the links have been so indexed, the sorting step will be
* unnecessary, so the iteration may begin more quickly. Valid
* values include the following:
*
* \indexes
*
* Note that the index type passed in \p idx_type is a
* best effort setting. If the application passes in a
* value indicating iteration in creation order and a group is
* encountered that was not tracked in creation order, that group
* will be iterated over in alpha-numeric order by name, or
* name order. (Name order is the native order
* used by the HDF5 library and is always available.)
*
* \p order specifies the order in which objects are to be inspected
* along the index specified in \p idx_type. Valid values include
* the following:
*
* \orders
*
* The prototype of the callback function op is as follows (as
* defined in the source code file H5Opublic.h):
*
* \snippet this H5O_iterate2_t_snip
*
* The parameters of this callback function have the following
* values or meanings:
*
*
* \c obj |
* Object that serves as root of the iteration |
*
*
* \c name |
* Name of object, relative to \c obj, being examined at
* current step of the iteration |

* regarding that object |
*
*
* \c op_data |

* \snippet this H5O_type_t_snip
*
* The H5Ovisit_by_name3() \p op_data parameter is a user-defined
* pointer to the data required to process objects in the course
* of the iteration. This pointer is passed back to each step of
* the iteration in the callback function’s \p op_data parameter.
*
* \p lapl_id is a link access property list. In the general case,
* when default link access properties are acceptable, this can
* be passed in as #H5P_DEFAULT. An example of a situation that
* requires a non-default link access property list is when
* the link is an external link; an external link may require
* that a link prefix be set in a link access property list
* (see H5Pset_elink_prefix()).
*
* The \p fields parameter contains flags to determine which fields will

* \return On success, returns the return value of the first operator
* that returns a positive value, or zero if all members were
* processed with no operator returning non-zero.
*
* \return On failure, returns a negative value if something goes wrong
* within the library, or the first negative value returned by
* an operator.
*
* \deprecated As of HDF5-1.12 this function has been deprecated in favor of
* the function H5Ovisit3() or the macro #H5Ovisit.
*
* \details H5Ovisit2() is a recursive iteration function to visit the
* object \p obj_id and, if \p obj_id is a group, all objects in
* and below it in an HDF5 file, thus providing a mechanism for
* an application to perform a common set of operations across all
* of those objects or a dynamically selected subset. For
* non-recursive iteration across the members of a group,
* see H5Literate1().
*
* If \p obj_id is a group identifier, that group serves as the
* root of a recursive iteration. If \p obj_id is a file identifier,
* that file’s root group serves as the root of the recursive
* iteration. If \p obj_id is an attribute identifier,
* then the object where the attribute is attached will be iterated.
* If \p obj_id is any other type of object, such as a dataset or
* named datatype, there is no iteration.
*
* Two parameters are used to establish the iteration: \p idx_type
* and \p order.
*
* \p idx_type specifies the index to be used. If the links in
* a group have not been indexed by the index type, they will
* first be sorted by that index then the iteration will begin;
* if the links have been so indexed, the sorting step will be
* unnecessary, so the iteration may begin more quickly. Valid
* values include the following:
*
* \indexes
*
* Note that the index type passed in \p idx_type is a
* best effort setting. If the application passes in
* a value indicating iteration in creation order and a group is
* encountered that was not tracked in creation order, that group
* will be iterated over in alpha-numeric order by name, or
* name order. (Name order is the native order
* used by the HDF5 library and is always available.)
*
* \p order specifies the order in which objects are to be inspected
* along the index specified in \p idx_type. Valid values include
* the following:
*
* \orders
*
* The prototype of the callback function op is as follows (as
* defined in the source code file H5Opublic.h):
*
* \snippet this H5O_iterate1_t_snip
*
* The parameters of this callback function have the following values
* or meanings:
*
*
* \c obj |
* Object that serves as root of the iteration;
* same value as the H5Ovisit1() \p obj_id parameter |
*
*
* \c name |
* Name of object, relative to \c obj, being examined at
* current step of the iteration |
*
*
* \c info |
* H5O_info1_t \c struct containing information
* regarding that object |
*
*
* \c op_data |
* User-defined pointer to data required by the application in
* processing the object; a pass-through of the \c op_data pointer
* provided with the H5Ovisit() function call |
*
*
*
* The H5O_info1_t \c struct is defined in H5Opublic.h and
* described in the H5Oget_info1() function entry.
*
* The return values from an operator are:
* - Zero causes the visit iterator to continue, returning zero when all
* group members have been processed.
* - A positive value causes the visit iterator to immediately return that
* positive value, indicating short-circuit success.
* - A negative value causes the visit iterator to immediately return that
* value, indicating failure.
*
* The H5Ovisit2() \p op_data parameter is a user-defined pointer to the data
* required to process objects in the course of the iteration. This pointer
* is passed back to each step of the iteration in the callback
* function’s \p op_data parameter.
*
* The \p fields parameter contains flags to determine which fields will
* be retrieved by the \p op callback function. These flags are defined
* in the H5Opublic.h file:
* \obj_info_fields
*
* H5Lvisit() and H5Ovisit() are companion functions: one for
* examining and operating on links; the other for examining
* and operating on the objects that those links point to. Both
* functions ensure that by the time the function completes
* successfully, every link or object below the specified point
* in the file has been presented to the application for whatever
* processing the application requires. These functions assume
* that the membership of the group being iterated over remains
* unchanged through the iteration; if any of the links in the
* group change during the iteration, the resulting behavior
* is undefined.
*
* \note \Bold{Programming Note for C++ Developers Using C Functions:}
* \note If a C routine that takes a function pointer as an argument is
* called from within C++ code, the C routine should be returned
* from normally.
*
* \note Examples of this kind of routine include callbacks such as
* H5Pset_elink_cb() and H5Pset_type_conv_cb() and
* functions such as H5Tconvert() and H5Ewalk2().
*
* \note Exiting the routine in its normal fashion allows the HDF5
* C library to clean up its work properly. In other words, if
* the C++ application jumps out of the routine back to the C++
* “catch” statement, the library is not given the opportunity
* to close any temporary data structures that were set up when
* the routine was called. The C++ application should save some
* state as the routine is started so that any problem that occurs
* might be diagnosed.

*
* \deprecated As of HDF5-1.12 this function has been deprecated in favor of
* the function H5Ovisit_by_name3() or the macro #H5Ovisit_by_name.
*
* \details H5Ovisit_by_name2() is a recursive iteration function to visit
* the object specified by the \p loc_id / \p obj_name parameter
* pair and, if that object is a group, all objects in and below it
* in an HDF5 file, thus providing a mechanism for an application to
* perform a common set of operations across all of those objects or
* a dynamically selected subset. For non-recursive iteration across
* the members of a group, see #H5Literate.
*
* The object serving as the root of the iteration is specified
* by the \p loc_id / \p obj_name parameter pair. \p loc_id specifies
* a file or an object in a file; if \p loc_id is an attribute identifier,
* the object where the attribute is attached will be used.
* \p obj_name specifies either an object in the file (with an absolute
* name based in the file’s root group) or an object name relative
* to \p loc_id. If \p loc_id fully specifies the object that is to serve
* as the root of the iteration, \p obj_name should be '\c .' (a dot).
* (Note that when \p loc_id fully specifies the object that is to serve
* as the root of the iteration, the user may wish to consider
* using H5Ovisit2() instead of #H5Ovisit_by_name.)
*
* Two parameters are used to establish the iteration: \p idx_type
* and \p order.
*
* \p idx_type specifies the index to be used. If the links in
* a group have not been indexed by the index type, they will
* first be sorted by that index then the iteration will begin;

*
* \p order specifies the order in which objects are to be inspected
* along the index specified in \p idx_type. Valid values include
* the following:
*
* \orders
*
* The \p op callback function and the effect of the callback
* function’s return value on the application are described
* in H5Ovisit2().
*
* The H5O_info1_t \c struct is defined in H5Opublic.h
* and described in the H5Oget_info1() function entry.
*
* The H5Ovisit_by_name2() \p op_data parameter is a user-defined
* pointer to the data required to process objects in the course
* of the iteration. This pointer is passed back to each step of
* the iteration in the callback function’s \p op_data parameter.
*
* \p lapl_id is a link access property list. In the general case,
* when default link access properties are acceptable, this can
* be passed in as #H5P_DEFAULT. An example of a situation that
* requires a non-default link access property list is when
* the link is an external link; an external link may require
* that a link prefix be set in a link access property list
* (see H5Pset_elink_prefix()).
*
* The \p fields parameter contains flags to determine which fields will
* be retrieved by the \p op callback function. These flags are defined
* in the H5Opublic.h file:
* \obj_info_fields
*
* #H5Lvisit_by_name and #H5Ovisit_by_name are companion
