Name: H5Tset_ebias
Signature:
herr_t H5Tset_ebias( hid_t dtype_id, size_t ebias )

Purpose:
Sets the exponent bias of a floating-point type.

Description:
H5Tset_ebias sets the exponent bias of a floating-point type.

Parameters:
hid_t dtype_id     IN: Identifier of datatype to set.
size_t ebias IN: Exponent bias value.

Returns:
Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise returns a negative value.
