Create a FitsTable astFitsTable
The FitsTable class is a representation of a FITS binary table. It inherits from the
Table class. The parent Table is used to hold the binary data of the main table, and a
FitsChan is used to hold the FITS header. Note, there is no provision for binary data
following the main table (such data is referred to as a "
heap"
in the FITS
standard).
Note - it is not recommended to use the FitsTable class to store very large tables.
"
printf"
format specifiers identified
by "
%"
symbols in the normal way. "
options"
string contains "
%"
format specifiers, then an optional list of additional arguments may follow it in order
to supply values to be substituted for these specifiers. The rules for supplying these
are identical to those for the astSet function (and for the C "
printf"
function). A null Object pointer (AST__NULL) will be returned if this function is invoked with the AST error status set, or if it should fail for any reason.
