Synopsis

subroutine mcf_db_print_directory(handle,pattern,status)

Description

mcf_db_print_directory prints the table of contents, i.e the list of the dataset names and attributes, of the database file identified by handle to the Fortran formatted output unit io. pattern defines the pattern-matching string.

Note that the Fortran formatted output unit specification is implementation-dependent, i.e on some implementations the output is printed to the standard output unit.

Parameters

handle: File handle of file to be printed (input).
pattern: String containing pattern-matching criteria for selective output. The pattern matching mechanism is the same as the one found in the UNIX Bourne shell. If all datasets are to be listed, set pattern to "*" or specify an empty string.
status: Status code returned (output). Upon successful completion of the operation, the status value 0 is returned. A negative value is returned if an error has been detected. A positive value is returned if a warning has been issued.
