NDF_ASSOC
- Associate an existing NDF with an ADAM parameter
- Description:
The routine obtains access to an existing NDF through the ADAM
parameter system, associates it with the named parameter, and
issues an NDF identifier for it.
- Invocation:
CALL NDF_ASSOC( PARAM, MODE, INDF, STATUS )
- Arguments:
-
PARAM = CHARACTER * ( * ) (Given)
-
Name of the ADAM parameter.
-
MODE = CHARACTER * ( * ) (Given)
-
Type of NDF access required: 'READ', 'UPDATE' or 'WRITE'.
-
INDF = INTEGER (Returned)
-
NDF identifier.
-
STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
-
The global status.
- Notes:
-
If 'WRITE' access is specified, then all the NDF's components
will be reset to an undefined state ready to receive new values.
If 'UPDATE' access is specified, the NDF's components will retain
their values, which may then be modified.
-
If this routine is called with STATUS set, then a value of
NDF__NOID will be returned for the INDF argument, although no
further processing will occur. The same value will also be
returned if the routine should fail for any reason. The NDF__NOID
constant is defined in the include file NDF_PAR.
