Name: H5Tequal
Signature:
  htri_t `H5Tequal`( hid_t `dtype_id1`, hid_t `dtype_id2` )

Purpose:
  Determines whether two datatype identifiers refer to the same datatype.

Description:
  `H5Tequal` determines whether two datatype identifiers refer to the same datatype.

Parameters:

  hid_t `dtype_id1` | IN: Identifier of datatype to compare.
  hid_t `dtype_id2` | IN: Identifier of datatype to compare.

Returns:
  When successful, returns a positive value, for `TRUE`, if the datatype identifiers refer to the same datatype, or `0` (zero), for `FALSE`. Otherwise returns a negative value.

Fortran90 Interface: h5tequal_f
