H5Rcreate(h5loc, name, ref_type = "H5R_OBJECT", h5space = NULL)

`h5loc`	An `H5IdComponent` object representing the location to be pointed to by the created reference.
`name`	Character string giving the name of the object to be referenced, relative to the location given by `h5loc`.
`ref_type`	The type of reference to create. Accepts either `H5R_OBJECT` or `H5R_DATASET_REGION`.
`h5space`	An object of class `H5IdComponent` representing a dataspace with a selection set. This argument is only used if creating a reference to a dataset region, and will be ignored otherwise.
