E05JDF may be used to supply individual optional parameters to
E05JBF. The initialization routine
E05JAF must have been called before calling E05JDF.
E05JDF may be used to supply values for optional parameters to
E05JBF. It is only necessary to call E05JDF for those parameters whose values are to be different from their default values. One call to E05JDF sets one parameter value.
Each optional parameter is defined by a single character string,
of up to
characters,
consisting of one or more items. The items associated with a given optional parameter must be separated by spaces, or equals signs
. Alphabetic characters may be upper or lower case. The string
Static Limit = 100
is an example of a string used to set an optional parameter. For each optional parameter the string contains one or more of the following items:
– |
a mandatory keyword; |
– |
a phrase that qualifies the keyword; |
– |
a number that specifies an integer or real value. Such numbers may be up to contiguous characters. |
For E05JDF, each user-specified optional parameter is not normally printed as it is defined, but this printing may be turned on using the keyword
List. Thus the statement
CALL E05JDF ('List', COMM, LCOMM, IFAIL)
turns on printing of this and subsequent options. Printing may be turned off again using the keyword
Nolist.
Optional parameter settings are preserved following a call to
E05JBF and so the keyword
Defaults is provided to allow you to reset all the optional parameters to their default values before a subsequent call to
E05JBF.
A complete list of optional parameters, their symbolic names and default values is given in
Section 11 in E05JBF.
None.
If on entry
or
, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by
X04AAF).
Not applicable.
E05JCF,
E05JEF,
E05JFF or
E05JGF may also be used to supply optional parameters to
E05JBF.
