6 ARGETR - Retrieves the real value of an Areas parameter.

12 #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>
13
14 void c_argetr (char *pnam, float *rval)
15
17 PNAM (an input constant or variable of type CHARACTER) - The
18 name of the parameter that you want to retrieve. The
19 character string can be of any length, but only the first
20 two characters of it will be examined.
21
22 RVAL (an output variable of type REAL) - A real variable to
23 receive the desired parameter value. If the internal
24 parameter is of type REAL and has the value "r", RVAL will
25 be given the value "r"; if the internal parameter is of
26 type INTEGER and has the value "i", RVAL will be given the
27 value "REAL(i)".
28
30 The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN
31 argument descriptions.
32
34 This routine allows you to retrieve the current value of Areas
35 parameters. For a complete list of parameters available in this
36 utility, see the areas_params man page.
37
39 To use ARGETR or c_argetr, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg,
40 ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in that order.
41
43 See the areas man page for a description of all Areas error messages
44 and/or informational messages.
