/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * Created:	H5G.c
 *		Jul 18 1997
 *		Robb Matzke <matzke@llnl.gov>
 *
 * Purpose:	Symbol table functions.	 The functions that begin with
 *		`H5G_stab_' don't understand the naming system; they operate
 * 		on a single symbol table at a time.
 *
 *		The functions that begin with `H5G_node_' operate on the leaf
 *		nodes of a symbol table B-tree.  They should be defined in
 *		the H5Gnode.c file.
 *
 *		The remaining functions know how to traverse the group
 *		directed graph.
 *
 * Names:	Object names are a slash-separated list of components.  If
 *		the name begins with a slash then it's absolute, otherwise
 *		it's relative ("/foo/bar" is absolute while "foo/bar" is
 *		relative).  Multiple consecutive slashes are treated as
 *		single slashes and trailing slashes are ignored.  The special
 *		case `/' is the root group.  Every file has a root group.
 *
 *		API functions that look up names take a location ID and a
 *		name.  The location ID can be a file ID or a group ID and the
 *		name can be relative or absolute.
 *
 *              +--------------+----------- +--------------------------------+
 * 		| Location ID  | Name       | Meaning                        |
