CSPICE_REPML replaces a marker with the text representation of a logical
value.
Given:
in an arbitrary character string.
help, in
STRING = Scalar
marker an arbitrary character string.
help, marker
STRING = Scalar
The first occurrence of `marker' in the input string is to be
replaced by `value'.
`marker' is case-sensitive.
Leading and trailing blanks in `marker' are NOT
significant. In particular, no substitution is
performed if `marker' is blank or empty.
value an arbitrary logical value, either True or False.
help, value
BOOLEAN = Scalar
rtcase indicates the case of the replacement text.
help, rtcase
STRING = Scalar
`rtcase' may be any of the following:
rtcase Meaning Output values
------ ----------- ---------------
U, u Uppercase 'TRUE', 'FALSE'
L, l Lowercase 'true', 'false'
C, c Capitalized 'True', 'False'
the call:
cspice_repml, in, marker, value, rtcase, out
returns:
out the string obtained by substituting the text representation of
`value' for the first occurrence of `marker' in the input
string.
help, out
STRING = Scalar
None.
Any numerical results shown for this example may differ between
platforms as the results depend on the SPICE kernels used as input
and the machine specific arithmetic implementation.
1) The following example illustrates the use of cspice_repml to replace
a marker within a string with the text representation of a
logical value.
Example code begins here.
PRO repml_ex1
;;
;; Local constants
;;
SPICEFALSE = 0L
SPICETRUE = 1L
;;
;; 1. Uppercase
;;
marker = '#'
instr = 'Invalid value. The value was: #.'
cspice_repml, instr, marker, SPICEFALSE, 'U', outstr
print, 'Case 1: Replacement text in uppercase.'
print, ' Input : ', instr
print, ' Output: ', outstr
print, ' '
;;
;; 2. Lowercase
;;
marker = ' XX '
instr = 'Invalid value. The value was: XX.'
cspice_repml, instr, marker, SPICETRUE, 'l', outstr
print, 'Case 2: Replacement text in lowercase.'
print, ' Input : ', instr
print, ' Output: ', outstr
print, ' '
;;
;; 2. Capitalized
;;
marker = '#'
instr = 'Invalid value. The value was: #.'
cspice_repml, instr, marker, SPICEFALSE, 'c', outstr
print, 'Case 3: Replacement text capitalized.'
print, ' Input : ', instr
print, ' Output: ', outstr
END
When this program was executed on a Mac/Intel/IDL8.x/64-bit
platform, the output was:
Case 1: Replacement text in uppercase.
Input : Invalid value. The value was: #.
Output: Invalid value. The value was: FALSE.
Case 2: Replacement text in lowercase.
Input : Invalid value. The value was: XX.
Output: Invalid value. The value was: true.
Case 3: Replacement text capitalized.
Input : Invalid value. The value was: #.
Output: Invalid value. The value was: False.
This is one of a family of related routines for inserting values
into strings. They are typically used 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
cspice_repmct, string, '#1', 51L, 'C', tmpstr
cspice_repmc, tmpstr, '#2', '[USER.DATA]', 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.
cspice_repmc ( Replace marker with character string value )
cspice_repmd ( Replace marker with double precision value )
cspice_repmf ( Replace marker with formatted d.p. value )
cspice_repmi ( Replace marker with integer value )
cspice_repml ( Replace marker with logical value )
cspice_repmct ( Replace marker with cardinal text )
cspice_repmot ( Replace marker with ordinal text )
1) If `marker' is blank or empty, or if `marker' is not a substring of
`in', no substitution is performed. (`out' and `in' are identical.)
2) If the value of `rtcase' is not recognized, the error
SPICE(INVALIDCASE) is signaled by a routine in the call tree
of this routine. `out' is not changed.
3) If any of the input arguments, `in', `marker', `value' or
`rtcase', is undefined, an error is signaled by the IDL error
handling system.
4) If any of the input arguments, `in', `marker', `value' or
`rtcase', is not of the expected type, or it does not have the
expected dimensions and size, an error is signaled by the Icy
interface.
5) If the output argument `out' is not a named variable, an error
is signaled by the Icy interface.
None.
None.
ICY.REQ
None.
