All,
In what cases can H5garbage_collect cause a crash ? Also if one closes
all the HDF5 resources like datatypes, dataspace, datasets after its use
, Is it mandatory to call the garbage collect ?

It is not mandatory to call H5garbage_collect(). If you are getting a crash when calling it, it's very likely that your application has corrupted memory somehow. If that's the case, I would suggest using the "--enable-using-memchecker" configure flag and running your application with Purify or valgrind to locate the memory corruption.
