Procedure

     REPMC  ( Replace marker with character string )

     SUBROUTINE REPMC ( IN, MARKER, VALUE, OUT )

Abstract

     Replace a marker with a character string.

Required_Reading

     None.

Keywords

     CHARACTER
     CONVERSION
     STRING

Declarations

     IMPLICIT NONE

     CHARACTER*(*)         IN
     CHARACTER*(*)         MARKER
     CHARACTER*(*)         VALUE
     CHARACTER*(*)         OUT

Brief_I/O

     VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
     --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
     IN         I   Input string.
     MARKER     I   Marker to be replaced.
     VALUE      I   Replacement string.
     OUT        O   Output string.

Detailed_Input

     IN       is an arbitrary character string.

     MARKER   is an arbitrary character string. The first occurrence of
              MARKER in the input string is to be replaced by VALUE.

              Leading and trailing blanks in MARKER are NOT
              significant. In particular, no substitution is performed
              if MARKER is blank.

     VALUE    is the replacement character string.

              Leading and trailing blanks in VALUE are NOT significant:
              the portion of VALUE that is substituted for MARKER
              extends from its first non-blank character to its last
              non-blank character.

              However, if VALUE is blank, a single blank is substituted
              for the first occurrence of MARKER.

Detailed_Output

     OUT      is the string obtained by substituting VALUE (leading and
              trailing blanks excepted) for the first occurrence of
              MARKER in the input string.

              OUT and IN must be identical or disjoint.

Parameters

     None.

Exceptions

     Error free.

     1)  If OUT does not have sufficient length to accommodate the
         result of the substitution, the result will be truncated on
         the right.

     2)  If MARKER is blank, or if MARKER is not a substring of IN,
         no substitution is performed. (OUT and IN are identical.)

     3)  If VALUE is blank, a single blank is substituted for the
         first occurrence of MARKER.

Files

     None.

Particulars

     This is one of a family of related routines for inserting values
     into strings. They are typically to construct messages that
     are partly fixed, and partly determined at run time. For example,
     a message like

        'Fifty-one pictures were found in directory [USER.DATA].'

     might be constructed from the fixed string

        '#1 pictures were found in directory #2.'

     by the calls

        CALL REPMCT ( STRING, '#1', N_PICS,  'C', STRING )
        CALL REPMC  ( STRING, '#2', DIR_NAME,     STRING )

     which substitute the cardinal text 'Fifty-one' and the character
     string '[USER.DATA]' for the markers '#1' and '#2' respectively.

     The complete list of routines is shown below.

        REPMC    ( Replace marker with character string value )
        REPMD    ( Replace marker with double precision value )
        REPMF    ( Replace marker with formatted d.p. value   )
        REPMI    ( Replace marker with integer value          )
        REPML    ( Replace marker with logical value          )
        REPMCT   ( Replace marker with cardinal text          )
        REPMOT   ( Replace marker with ordinal text           )

Examples

     The numerical results shown for this example may differ across
     platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as
     input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine
     specific arithmetic implementation.

     1) The following example illustrate the use of REPMC to
        replace a marker within a string with a character string
        value.


        Example code begins here.


              PROGRAM REPMC_EX1
              IMPLICIT NONE

        C
        C     Local parameters.
        C
              INTEGER                 STRLEN
              PARAMETER             ( STRLEN = 80 )

        C
        C     Local variables.
        C
              CHARACTER*(STRLEN)      INSTR
              CHARACTER*(STRLEN)      MARKER
              CHARACTER*(STRLEN)      OUTSTR

        C
        C     1. Single marker
        C
              MARKER = '#'
              INSTR  = 'Invalid value. The value was:  #'

              CALL REPMC ( INSTR, MARKER, 'append', OUTSTR )

              WRITE(*,*) 'Case 1: Single marker.'
              WRITE(*,*) '   Input : ', INSTR
              WRITE(*,*) '   Output: ', OUTSTR
              WRITE(*,*)

        C
        C     2. Multiple markers
        C
              MARKER = ' XX '
              INSTR  = 'The token XX was not recognized. Was it XX?'

              CALL REPMC ( INSTR, MARKER, '  FND  ', OUTSTR )

              WRITE(*,*) 'Case 2: Multiple markers.'
              WRITE(*,*) '   Input : ', INSTR
              WRITE(*,*) '   Output: ', OUTSTR
              WRITE(*,*)

              END


        When this program was executed on a Mac/Intel/gfortran/64-bit
        platform, the output was:


         Case 1: Single marker.
            Input : Invalid value. The value was:  #
            Output: Invalid value. The value was:  append

         Case 2: Multiple markers.
            Input : The token XX was not recognized. Was it XX?
            Output: The token FND was not recognized. Was it XX?
