    with be (4, 5), (10, 8).
        The bounding box calculations _does_ include the current offset of the

 NAME

 PURPOSE
    Gets the bounding box containing the selection.
 USAGE
    herr_t H5S_hyper_bounds(space, hsize_t *start, hsize_t *end)

        hsize_t *end;           OUT: Opposite coordinate of bounding box
 RETURNS
    Non-negative on success, negative on failure
 DESCRIPTION
    Retrieves the bounding box containing the current selection and places
    it into the user's buffers.  The start and end buffers must be large
    enough to hold the dataspace rank number of coordinates.  The bounding box
    exactly contains the selection, ie. if a 2-D element selection is currently
    defined with the following points: (4,5), (6,8) (10,7), the bounding box
    with be (4, 5), (10, 8).
        The bounding box calculations _does_ include the current offset of the
    selection within the dataspace extent.

        H5S_hyper_span_t **a_not_b;  OUT: Span tree of 'a' hyperslab spans which

                                            spans.

 RETURNS
    non-negative on success, negative on failure
 DESCRIPTION
    Clip one span tree ('a') against another span tree ('b').  Creates span
    trees for the area defined by the 'a' span tree which does not overlap the
    'b' span tree, the area defined by the overlap of the 'a' hyperslab span
    tree and the 'b' span tree, and the area defined by the 'b' hyperslab span
    tree which does not overlap the 'a' span tree.

 RETURNS
    Non-negative on success/Negative on failure
 DESCRIPTION
    Combines a hyperslab selection with the current selection for a dataspace.
    If the current selection is not a hyperslab, it is freed and the hyperslab
    parameters passed in are combined with the H5S_SEL_ALL hyperslab (ie. a
    selection composing the entire current extent).  If STRIDE or BLOCK is
    NULL, they are assumed to be set to all '1'.

    Use the selection in the dataspace to generate a list of byte offsets and

    parameter and the number of sequences actually generated is stored in the

    Non-negative on success/Negative on failure.
 DESCRIPTION
    Use the selection in the dataspace to generate a list of byte offsets and
    lengths for the region(s) selected.  Start/Restart from the position in the
    ITER parameter.  The number of sequences generated is limited by the MAXSEQ
    parameter and the number of sequences actually generated is stored in the
    NSEQ parameter.

 DESCRIPTION
    Use the selection in the dataspace to generate a list of byte offsets and
    lengths for the region(s) selected.  Start/Restart from the position in the
    ITER parameter.  The number of sequences generated is limited by the MAXSEQ
    parameter and the number of sequences actually generated is stored in the
    NSEQ parameter.
