 * Function:	H5F_open
 *
 * Purpose:	Opens (or creates) a file.  This function understands the

 *		open(2) flags.
 *
 *		H5F_ACC_RDWR:	Open with read/write access. If the file is
 *				currently open for read-only access then it
 *				will be reopened. Absence of this flag
 *				implies read-only access.
 *
 *		H5F_ACC_CREAT:	Create a new file if it doesn't exist yet.
 *				The permissions are 0666 bit-wise AND with
 *				the current umask.  H5F_ACC_WRITE must also
 *				be specified.
 *
 *		H5F_ACC_EXCL:	This flag causes H5F_open() to fail if the
 *				file already exists.
 *
 *		H5F_ACC_TRUNC:	The file is truncated and a new HDF5 boot
 *				block is written.  This operation will fail
 *				if the file is already open.
 *
 *		Unlinking the file name from the group directed graph while
 *		the file is opened causes the file to continue to exist but
 *		one will not be able to upgrade the file from read-only
 *		access to read-write access by reopening it. Disk resources
 *		for the file are released when all handles to the file are
 *		closed. NOTE: This paragraph probably only applies to Unix;
 *		deleting the file name in other OS's has undefined results.
 *
 *		The CREATE_PARMS argument is optional.	A null pointer will
 *		cause the default file creation parameters to be used.
 *
 *		The ACCESS_PARMS argument is optional.  A null pointer will
 *		cause the default file access parameters to be used.
 *
 * Errors:
 *		ATOM	  BADATOM	Can't unatomize default template
 *					id. 
 *		FILE	  BADVALUE	Can't create file without write
 *					intent.

 *	If the name contains the pattern /[^%]%\d*[duxX]/ then the file is
 *	assumed to be a family of files.  The TYPE argument is ignored and
 *	H5F_LOW_FAM is used instead.
 *
 *	Albert Cheng, 5 Feb 1998
 *	Added the access_parms argument to pass down access template
 *	information.
 *
 * 	Robb Matzke, 18 Feb 1998
 *	The H5F_access_t changed to allow more generality.  The low level
 *	driver is part of the file access template so the TYPE argument has
 *	been removed.

 ERRORS
