NDF_PROP

Propagate NDF information to create a new NDF via the ADAM parameter system

Description:

The routine creates a new NDF data structure through the ADAM parameter system, associates it with a parameter and returns an identifier for it. The shape, data type, etc. of this new NDF are based on a existing "template" NDF, and the values of components of this template may be selectively propagated to initialise the new data structure.

Invocation

CALL NDF_PROP( INDF1, CLIST, PARAM, INDF2, STATUS )

Arguments

INDF1 = INTEGER (Given)
Identifier for an existing NDF (or NDF section) to act as a template.
CLIST = CHARACTER ( ) (Given)
A comma-separated list of the NDF components which are to be propagated to the new data structure. By default, the HISTORY, LABEL and TITLE components are propagated. All extensions are also propagated by default except for any that have had a zero value assigned to the corresponding "PXT..." tuning parameter using NDF_TUNE. See the "Component Propagation" section for further details.
PARAM = CHARACTER ( ) (Given)
Name of the ADAM parameter for the new NDF.
INDF2 = INTEGER (Returned)
Identifier for the new NDF.
STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
The global status.
