H5Tlock
(hid_t type_id
)
H5Tlock
locks the datatype specified by the
type_id
identifier, making it read-only and
non-destructible. This is normally done by the library for
predefined datatypes so the application does not
inadvertently change or delete a predefined type.
Once a datatype is locked it can never be unlocked.
