C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

15       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>
16
17       void c_mapitm (float rlat, float rlon, int ifst,
18       int *iama, float *xcra, float *ycra, int mcra,
19       int *iaai, int *iagi, int nogi,
20       int (*ulpr)(float *xcra, float *ycra, int *mcra,
21       int *iaai, int *iagi, int *nogi))
22
23       void c_mapiqm (int *iama, float *xcra, float *ycra,
24       int mcra, int *iaai, int *iagi, int nogi,
25       int ulpr(float *xcra, float *ycra, int *mcra,
26       int *iaai, int *iagi , int *nogi))
27
28       RLAT and RLON
29                   (input expressions, of type REAL) specify the latitude and
30                   longitude of a point to which the "pen" is to be moved.
31                   Both are given in degrees. RLAT must be between -90. and
32                   +90., inclusive; RLON must be between -540. and +540.,
33                   inclusive.
34
35       IFST        (an input expression, of type INTEGER) is 0 to do a "pen-
36                   up" move, 1 to do a "pen-down" move only if the distance
37                   from the last point to the new point is greater than 'MV'
38                   plotter units, and 2 or greater to do a "pen-down" move
39                   regardless of the distance from the last point to the new
40                   one.
41
42       IAMA        (an input/output array of type INTEGER, dimensioned as
43                   specified in a call to the AREAS initialization routine
44                   ARINAM) is the array containing the area map against which
45                   lines drawn by MAPIQM will be masked.
46
47       XCRA and YCRA
48                   (scratch arrays of type REAL, each dimensioned MCRA) are to
49                   be passed by MAPIQM to the AREAS routine ARDRLN, which uses
50                   them in calls to the user line-processing routine ULPR.
51                   They will hold the X and Y coordinates of points in the
52                   fractional coordinate system defining some portion of the
53                   projection of a user-defined polyline on the globe.
54
55       MCRA        (an input expression of type INTEGER) is the size of each
56                   of the arrays XCRA and YCRA. The value of MCRA must be at
57                   least two. For most applications, the value 100 works
58                   nicely.
59
60       IAAI and IAGI
61                   (scratch arrays of type INTEGER, each dimensioned NOGI) are
62                   to be passed by MAPIQM to the AREAS routine ARDRLN, which
63                   uses them in calls to the user line-processing routine
64                   ULPR. They will hold area identifier/group identifier pairs
65                   for the area containing the polyline fragment defined by
66                   XCRA and YCRA.
67
68       NOGI        (an input expression of type INTEGER) is the size of each
69                   of the arrays IAAI and IAGI. The value of NOGI must be
70                   greater than or equal to the number of groups of edges
71                   placed in the area map in IAMA.
72
73       ULPR        is the name of a user-provided line-processing routine.
74                   This name must appear in an EXTERNAL statement in the
75                   routine that calls MAPITM, so that the compiler and loader
76                   will know that it is the name of a routine to be called,
77                   rather than the name of a variable.
78

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

80       The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN
81       argument descriptions.
82

USAGE

84       The routines MAPITM and MAPIQM may be used to draw lines defined by a
85       series of user-specified latitudes and longitudes on a map, masked by
86       the areas defined by an area map (perhaps one created by a call to
87       MAPBLA or perhaps one created by a set of calls to routines in the
88       package AREAS); like MAPIT and MAPIQ, they attempt to omit non-visible
89       portions of lines and to handle "cross-over".
90
91       MAPITM is called like the EZMAP routine MAPIT (which see, above) but
92       has some additional arguments:
93
94            CALL MAPITM (RLAT,RLON,IFST,IAMA,XCRA,YCRA,MCRA,IAAI,
95           + IAGI,NOGI,ULPR)
96
97       Additional arguments are the area-map array IAMA, coordinate arrays
98       XCRA and YCRA, dimensioned MCRA, integer arrays IAAI and IAGI,
99       dimensioned NOGI, and a user-provided line-processing routine named
100       ULPR. MAPIQM is called like the EZMAP routine MAPIQ, to terminate a
101       series of calls to MAPITM and to flush the buffers; it has the same
102       additional arguments:
103
104           CALL MAPIQM (IAMA,XCRA,YCRA,MCRA,IAAI,IAGI,NOGI,ULPR)
105
106       The additional arguments are passed by MAPITM and MAPIQM to the routine
107       ARDRLN, in the package named AREAS.
108
109       For more information, see the man page for the routine MAPIT.
110

EXAMPLES

112       Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant example: cmpitm.
113

ACCESS

115       To use MAPITM or c_mapitm, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg,
116       ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in that order.
