 NAME
    H5Fcreate
 PURPOSE
    Create a new HDF5 file.
 USAGE
    int32 H5Fcreate(filename, flags)

        uintn flags;            IN: Flags to indicate various options.

        hatom_t access_temp;    IN: File-access template
 RETURNS
    Returns file ID on success, FAIL on failure
 DESCRIPTION
        This is the primary function for creating HDF5 files . The flags
    parameter determines whether an existing file will be overwritten or not.
    All newly created files are opened for both reading and writing.  All flags
    may be combined with the "||" (logical OR operator) to change the behavior
    of the file open call.
        The flags currently defined:
            H5ACC_OVERWRITE - Truncate file, if it already exists. The file will
                be truncated, erasing all data previously stored in the file.
        The more complex behaviors of a file's creation and access are
    controlled through the file-creation and file-access templates.

 MODIFICATIONS:
    Robb Matzke, 18 Jul 1997
    File struct creation and destruction is through H5F_new() H5F_dest().
    Writing the root symbol table entry is done with H5G_encode().

 RETURNS
    Returns file ID on success, FAIL on failure
 DESCRIPTION
        This is the primary function for accessing existing HDF5 files. The
    flags parameter determines whether writing to an existing file will be allowed
    or not.  All flags may be combined with the "||" (logical OR operator) to
    change the behavior of the file open call.
        The flags currently defined:
            H5ACC_WRITE - Allow writing to the file.
        The more complex behaviors of a file's access are controlled through
    the file-access template.
