NDF_XNAME
- Obtain the name of the N'th extension in an NDF
- Description:
The routine returns the name of the N'th extension in an NDF. If
the requested extension does not exist, then the name is returned
blank. The routine may therefore be used to obtain the names of
all the extensions present by setting N to 1,2... etc. until a
blank name is returned. Note that the order in which these names
are obtained is not defined.
- Invocation:
CALL NDF_XNAME( INDF, N, XNAME, STATUS )
- Arguments:
-
INDF = INTEGER (Given)
-
NDF identifier.
-
N = INTEGER (Given)
-
The number of the extension whose name is required.
-
XNAME = CHARACTER * ( * ) (Returned)
-
The extension name (in upper case).
-
STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
-
The global status.
- Notes:
-
The symbolic constant NDF__SZXNM is provided to define the
length of character variables which are to hold an NDF extension
name. This constant is defined in the include file NDF_PAR.
