5.6.4 Set a Variable Length Array with NF_PUT_VLEN_ELEMENT
Use this to set the element of the (potentially) n-dimensional array
of VLEN. That is, this sets the data in one variable length array.
Usage
INTEGER FUNCTION NF_PUT_VLEN_ELEMENT(INTEGER NCID, INTEGER XTYPE,
CHARACTER*(*) VLEN_ELEMENT, INTEGER LEN, DATA)
NCID- The ncid of the file that contains the VLEN type.
XTYPE- The type of the VLEN.
VLEN_ELEMENT- The VLEN element to be set.
LEN- The number of entries in this array.
DATA- The data to be stored. Must match the base type of this VLEN.
Errors
NF_NOERR- No error.
NF_EBADTYPE- Can't find the typeid.
NF_EBADID- ncid invalid.
NF_EBADGRPID- Group ID part of ncid was invalid.
Example
This example is from nf_test/ftst_vars4.F.
C Set up the vlen with this helper function, since F77 can't deal
C with pointers.
retval = nf_put_vlen_element(ncid, vlen_typeid, vlen,
& vlen_len, data1)
if (retval .ne. nf_noerr) call handle_err(retval)
