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.
