integer*4 statusThe mcf_db_get_set_att functions check if
a sets exists anf if so, they return the dataset attributes of a
dataset name identified by
handle. mcf_db_get_set_att
returns all attributes. The other functions return one attribute at
the time. Note that the functions
mcf_db_get_set_att never abort, i.e if the set
is not found the status 1 is returned and the output values remain
undefined.
handleHandle of database file on which the set(s) reside (input).
nameName of dataset (input). The string may not exceed the maximum dataset name length.
Dataset type (output). The dataset type must consist of a character*4 buffer.
Number of dimensions of dataset (output).
Size of each of the ndim dimensions
(output).
Total size of dataset (output).
size is equal to the sum of all
dims.
Size of descriptor in bytes (output). A value of 0 means that no descriptor is defined.
Byte start address on database file of the data of
dataset name. Byte addresses start with
0.
statusStatus code returned (output). Upon successful completion of the operation, the status value 0 is returned. If the set was not found 1 is returned (no abort).
