Up: FORTRAN ROUTINE DESCRIPTIONS
Previous: NDF_CMSG - Assign the value of an NDF character component to a message token
- Description:
The routine copies an NDF to a new location and returns an
identifier for the resulting new base NDF.
- Invocation:
CALL NDF_COPY( INDF1, PLACE, INDF2, STATUS )
- Arguments:
-
INDF1 = INTEGER (Given)
-
Identifier for the NDF (or NDF section) to be copied.
-
PLACE = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
-
An NDF placeholder (e.g. generated by the NDF_PLACE routine)
which indicates the position in the data system where the new
NDF will reside. The placeholder is annulled by this routine,
and a value of NDF__NOPL will be returned (as defined in the
include file NDF_PAR).
-
INDF2 = INTEGER (Returned)
-
Identifier for the new NDF.
-
STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
-
The global status.
- Notes:
-
If this routine is called with STATUS set, then a value of
NDF__NOID will be returned for the INDF2 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 NDF__NOID
constant is defined in the include file NDF_PAR.
