 NAME
     DAcreate_array - Create a dynarray

 DESCRIPTION
    Create a dynarray for later use.  This routine allocates the dynarray
    structure and creates a dynarray with the specified minimum size.

 RETURNS
    Returns pointer to the dynarray created if successful and NULL otherwise

*******************************************************************************/

);

/******************************************************************************
 NAME
     DAdestroy_array - Destroy a dynarray

 DESCRIPTION
    Destroy an existing dynarray from use.  This routine de-allocates the
    dynarray structure and deletes the current dynarray.

 RETURNS
    Returns SUCCEED if successful and FAIL otherwise

*******************************************************************************/

/******************************************************************************
 NAME
     DAdestroy_array - Get the current size of a dynarray

 DESCRIPTION
    Get the number of elements in use currently.

 RETURNS
    Returns # of dynarray elements if successful and FAIL otherwise

*******************************************************************************/
intn DAsize_array(dynarr_p arr   /* IN: Array to get size of */

/******************************************************************************
 NAME
     DAget_elem - Get an element from a dynarray

 DESCRIPTION
    Retrieve an element from a dynarray.  If the element to be retrieved is
    beyond the end of the currently allocated array elements, the array is
    not extended, a NULL pointer is merely returned.

 RETURNS
    Returns object ptr if successful and NULL otherwise

/******************************************************************************
 NAME
     DAset_elem - Set an element pointer for a dynarray

 DESCRIPTION
    Set an element pointer for a dynarray.  If the element to be set is
    beyond the end of the currently allocated array elements, the array is
    extended by whatever multiple of the incr_mult is needed to expand the
    # of array elements to include the array element to set.

 RETURNS
    Returns SUCCEED if successful and NULL otherwise

 NAME
     DAdel_elem - Delete an element from a dynarray

 DESCRIPTION
    Retrieve an element from a dynarray & delete it from the dynarray.  If the
    element to be retrieved is beyond the end of the currently allocated array
    elements, the array is not extended, a NULL pointer is merely returned.

 RETURNS
    Returns object ptr if successful and NULL otherwise
