The following functions are new for Release 1.4 but are intended
only for driver development work, not for general use.
They are listed in the
<a href="../TechNotes/VFLfunc.html"><cite>List of VFL Functions</cite></a>
document in the

<h3>Functions with Changed Syntax</h3>
The following functions have changed slightly.
<dir>
<dl>
<dt><code>H5Pget_buffer</code>
<dd>Return type has changed to <em>hsize_t</em>.
<dt><code>H5Pset_buffer</code>
<dd>The type of the <code>size</code> parameter has changed
to <em>hsize_t</em>.
<dt><code>H5Tconvert</code>
<dd>The type of the <code>nelmts</code> parameter has changed
to <em>hsize_t</em>.
</dl>
</dir>
<h3>Constants with Changed Values</h3>
The values of the constants <code>H5P_DEFAULT</code> and
<code>H5S_ALL</code> have been changed from <code>-2</code>
to <code>0</code>.
These default values had to be special-cased in situations where
they could be returned to distinguish them from error values.
