1  Purpose

E05JJF is used to get the value of an ‘ON’/‘OFF’-valued character E05JBF optional parameter. E05JJF can be used before or after calling E05JBF, but the initialization routine E05JAF must have been called before calling E05JJF.

2  Specification

SUBROUTINE E05JJF ( OPTSTR, CVALUE, COMM, LCOMM, IFAIL)
INTEGER  LCOMM, IFAIL
REAL (KIND=nag_wp)  COMM(LCOMM)
CHARACTER(*)  OPTSTR, CVALUE

3  Description

E05JJF obtains the current value of an ‘ON’/‘OFF’-valued character optional parameter. For example
CALL E05JJF ('Local Searches', LCSRCH, COMM, LCOMM, IFAIL)
will result in the ‘ON’/‘OFF’ value of the optional parameter Local Searches being output in LCSRCH.
A complete list of optional parameters, their symbolic names and default values is given in Section 11 in E05JBF.

4  References

None.

5  Parameters

1:     OPTSTR – CHARACTER(*)Input
On entry: a string defining a single ‘ON’/‘OFF’-valued character optional parameter (as described in Section 11 in E05JBF).
2:     CVALUE – CHARACTER(*)Output
On exit: if IFAIL=0 on exit, CVALUE contains the ‘ON’/‘OFF’ value associated with the keyword in OPTSTR.
3:     COMM(LCOMM) – REAL (KIND=nag_wp) arrayCommunication Array
On entry: communication data as initialized by E05JAF.
4:     LCOMM – INTEGERInput
On entry: the dimension of the array COMM as declared in the (sub)program from which E05JJF is called.
Constraint: LCOMM100.
5:     IFAIL – INTEGERInput/Output
On entry: IFAIL must be set to 0, -1​ or ​1. If you are unfamiliar with this parameter you should refer to Section 3.3 in the Essential Introduction for details.
For environments where it might be inappropriate to halt program execution when an error is detected, the value -1​ or ​1 is recommended. If the output of error messages is undesirable, then the value 1 is recommended. Otherwise, if you are not familiar with this parameter, the recommended value is 0. When the value -1​ or ​1 is used it is essential to test the value of IFAIL on exit.
On exit: IFAIL=0 unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see Section 6).

6  Error Indicators and Warnings

If on entry IFAIL=0 or -1, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by X04AAF).
Errors or warnings detected by the routine:
IFAIL=1
On entry,LCOMM<100,
orthe initialization routine E05JAF has not been called.
IFAIL=2
The optional parameter given in OPTSTR is invalid. A keyword or keyword combination was not recognized.

7  Accuracy

Not applicable.

8  Further Comments

None.
