 * Function:    H5Tget_strpad

 *

 * Purpose: The method used to store character strings differs with the

 *      programming language: C usually null terminates strings while

 *      Fortran left-justifies and space-pads strings.  This property

 *      defines the storage mechanism for the string.

 *

 * Return:  Success:    The character set of a string type.

 *

 *      Failure:    H5T_STR_ERROR (Negative)

 *

 * Programmer:  Robb Matzke

 *      Friday, January  9, 1998

 *

 * Modifications:

 *  Robb Matzke, 22 Dec 1998

 *  Also works for derived datatypes.
