ARY_NEW
-
Create a new simple array
ARY_NEWP
-
Create a new primitive array
- Description:
-
The routine creates a new primitive array and returns an
identifier for it. The array may subsequently be manipulated with
the ARY_ routines.
- Invocation:
-
CALL ARY_NEWP( FTYPE, NDIM, UBND, PLACE, IARY, STATUS )
- Arguments:
-
-
FTYPE = CHARACTER
(
) (Given)
-
Data type of the array (e.g. '_REAL '). Note that complex types
are not allowed for primitive arrays.
-
NDIM = INTEGER (Given)
-
Number of array dimensions.
-
UBND( NDIM ) = INTEGER (Given)
-
Upper pixel-index bounds of the array (the lower bound of each
dimension is taken to be 1).
-
PLACE = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
-
An array placeholder (e.g. generated by the ARY_PLACE routine)
which indicates the position in the data system where the new
array will reside. The placeholder is annulled by this
routine, and a value of ARY__NOPL will be returned (as defined
in the include file ARY_PAR).
-
IARY = INTEGER (Returned)
-
Identifier for the new array.
-
STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
-
The global status.
- Notes:
-
-
If this routine is called with STATUS set, then a value of
ARY__NOID will be returned for the IARY argument, although no
further processing will occur. The same value will also be
returned if the routine should fail for any reason. In either
event, the placeholder will still be annulled. The ARY__NOID
constant is defined in the include file ARY_PAR.
