Abstract


   CSPICE_CLPOOL removes all kernel variables from the kernel pool. Watches
   on kernel variables are retained.

I/O


   The call:

      cspice_clpool

   deletes all variable assignments loaded into the kernel
   pool.

Parameters


   None.

Examples


   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) This code example demonstrates how to assing values to kernel
      pool variables, how to check for the existence of kernel pool
      variables and how to clear the kernel pool, i.e. how to delete
      all variable assignments loaded into the kernel pool.

      Place a value into the kernel pool and check for the variable
      to which the value has been assigned. Clear the kernel pool
      and check for that variable again.

      Example code begins here.


      function clpool_ex1()

         %
         % Place a value into the kernel pool. Recall
         % the routines for direct insertion
         % of pool assignments have arrays for input,
         % but in MATLAB a scalar is a 1x1 array.
         %
         cspice_pdpool( 'TEST_VAR', -666. )

         %
         % Check for the variable assignment to TEST_VAR.
         % cspice_gdpool returns an empty array if the variable
         % does not exist in the kernel pool.
         %
         dvals = cspice_gdpool( 'TEST_VAR', 0, 1 );

         disp( 'First call to cspice_gdpool:' )
         if ( ~isempty(dvals) )
            disp( sprintf( '   TEST_VAR value: %f', dvals ) )
         end

         %
         % Now clear the kernel pool.
         %
         cspice_clpool

         %
         % Again, check for the TEST_VAR assignment.
         %
         dvals = cspice_gdpool( 'TEST_VAR', 0, 1 );

         disp( 'Second call to cspice_gdpool:' )
         if ( isempty(dvals)  )
            disp( '   TEST_VAR not in kernel pool' )
         end


      When this program was executed on a Mac/Intel/Octave5.x/64-bit
      platform, the output was:


      First call to cspice_gdpool:
         TEST_VAR value: -666.000000
      Second call to cspice_gdpool:
         TEST_VAR not in kernel pool


Particulars


   cspice_clpool clears the pool of kernel variables maintained by
   the kernel POOL subsystem. All the variables in the pool are
   deleted. However, all watcher information is retained.

   Each watched variable will be regarded as having been updated.
   Any agent associated with that variable will have a notice
   posted for it indicating that its watched variable has been
   updated.

   Note, cspice_clpool deletes ALL pool assignments, including those
   from the cspice_pipool, cspice_pdpool, and cspice_pcpool
   set. Use cspice_unload to remove the assignments loaded from a
   particular kernel or cspice_kclear to completely clear the kernel
   pool.

Exceptions


   1)  All known agents (those established through the SPICELIB
       routine SWPOOL) will be "notified" that their watched
       variables have been updated whenever cspice_clpool is called.

Files


   None.

Restrictions


   1)  This routine should not be used to unload kernels that
       have been loaded via cspice_furnsh.

Version


   -Mice Version 1.1.0, 21-JUL-2020 (EDW) (JDR)

       Edited the header to comply with NAIF standard.
       Reformatted example's output and added problem statement.

       Added -Parameters, -Exceptions, -Files, -Restrictions,
       -Literature_References and -Author_and_Institution sections.

       Eliminated use of "lasterror" in rethrow.

       Removed reference to the function's corresponding CSPICE header from
       -Required_Reading section.
