H5F_SET_LIBVER_BOUNDS enables the switch of version bounds setting for an open file associated with file_id.

For the parameters low and high, see the description for H5P_SET_LIBVER_BOUNDS.

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

/*

 *       Create a file with fapl setting (A): (H5F_LIBVER_EARLIEST, H5F_LIBVER_V18).

 *       Create a chunked dataset in the file with “no filter edge chunks”, which

  *      is introduced in library release 1.10.

  *      The first attempt to create the dataset should fail with fapl setting (A).

  *      Switch the fapl setting to (B): (H5F_LIBVER_EARLIEST, H5F_LIBVER_LATEST).

  *      The second attempt to create the dataset should succeed with fapl setting (B).
