Name: H5Pset_fill_time
Signature:
herr_t H5Pset_fill_time(hid_t plist_id, H5D_fill_time_t fill_time )
Purpose:
Sets the time when fill values are written to a dataset.
Description:
H5Pset_fill_time sets up the timing for writing fill values to a dataset. This property is set in the dataset creation property list plist_id.

Timing is specified in fill_time with one of the following values:
     H5D_FILL_TIME_IFSET   Write fill values to the dataset when storage space is allocated only if there is a user-defined fill value, i.e., one set with H5Pset_fill_value.   (Default)
  H5D_FILL_TIME_ALLOC Write fill values to the dataset when storage space is allocated.
  H5D_FILL_TIME_NEVER Never write fill values to the dataset.

Note:
H5Pset_fill_time is designed for coordination with the dataset fill value and dataset storage allocation time properties, set with the functions H5Pset_fill_value and H5Pset_alloc_time.

See H5Dcreate for further cross-references.

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