Procedure

   spksfs_c ( S/P Kernel, Select file and segment ) 

   void spksfs_c ( SpiceInt        body,
                   SpiceDouble     et,
                   SpiceInt        idlen,
                   SpiceInt      * handle,
                   SpiceDouble     descr [5],
                   SpiceChar     * ident,
                   SpiceBoolean  * found     )

Abstract

   Search through loaded SPK files to find the highest-priority
   segment applicable to the body and time specified and buffer
   searched segments in the process, to attempt to avoid re-reading
   files.

Brief_I/O

   VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
   --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
   body       I   Body ID.
   et         I   Ephemeris time.
   idlen      I   Length of output segment ID string.
   handle     O   Handle of file containing the applicable segment.
   descr      O   Descriptor of the applicable segment.
   ident      O   Identifier of the applicable segment.
   found      O   Indicates whether or not a segment was found.
   SIDLEN     P   Maximum length of segment ID.

Detailed_Input

   body        is the NAIF integer code of an ephemeris object,
               typically a solar system body.

   et          is a time, in seconds past the epoch J2000 TDB.

   idlen       is the allowed length of the output string. This length
               must large enough to hold the output segment ID plus the
               null terminator. SPK segment identifiers may contain up
               to SIDLEN characters, excluding the null terminator.

Detailed_Output

   handle      is the handle of the SPK file containing a located
               segment.

   descr       is the descriptor of a located SPK segment. `descr'
               has length 5.

   ident       is the SPK segment identifier of a located SPK segment.

   found       is a logical flag indicating whether a requested segment was
               found or not. The other output arguments are valid only if
               `found' is set to SPICETRUE.

Parameters

   SIDLEN      is the maximum number of characters in an SPK segment
               identifier, excluding the null terminator.

               SIDLEN is set to 40.

Exceptions

   1)  If an attempt is made to call spksfs_c when there aren't any
       files loaded, the error SPICE(NOLOADEDFILES) is signaled by a
       routine in the call tree of this routine.

   2)  If an error occurs while this routine attempts to extract
       segment descriptors from loaded SPK files, the error is
       signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine.

       Note however that I/O errors occurring during reads of DAF
       double precision records are NOT treated as SPICE errors
       and are not signaled.

   3)  If the `ident' output string pointer is null, the error
       SPICE(NULLPOINTER) is signaled.

   4)  If the `ident' output string has length less than two
       characters, the error SPICE(STRINGTOOSHORT) is signaled, since
       the output string is too short to contain one character of
       output data plus a null terminator.

Files

   All SPK files loaded by furnsh_c or spklef_c are potential search
   targets for spksfs_c.

Particulars

   This routine finds the highest-priority segment, in any loaded
   SPK file, such that the segment provides data for the specified
   body and epoch.

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) Find a segment for the Pluto barycenter, with coverage for
      a specified epoch, in a JPL planetary SPK file, and display
      the segment's information.

      Use the meta-kernel shown below to load the required SPICE
      kernels.


         KPL/MK

         File name: spksfs_ex1.tm

         This meta-kernel is intended to support operation of SPICE
         example programs. The kernels shown here should not be
         assumed to contain adequate or correct versions of data
         required by SPICE-based user applications.

         In order for an application to use this meta-kernel, the
         kernels referenced here must be present in the user's
         current working directory.

         The names and contents of the kernels referenced
         by this meta-kernel are as follows:

            File name                     Contents
            ---------                     --------

            naif0010.tls                  Leapseconds

         \begindata

            KERNELS_TO_LOAD = ( 'de421.bsp',

Restrictions

   1)  If a Fortran I/O error occurs while this routine searches a
       loaded SPK file, the internal state of SPK segment and file
       selection routines, which are all entry points in the f2c'd
       version for the Fortran routine SPKBSR, may be corrupted.
