CSPICE_PDPOOL inserts double precision data into the kernel pool.
Given:
name name of the kernel pool variable to associate with the values
supplied in the array `values'. `name' is restricted to a
length of 32 characters or less.
[1,c1] = size(name); char = class(name)
or
[1,1] = size(name); cell = class(name)
values values to load into the kernel pool sub-system with the
assigned variable name `name'.
[n,1] = size(values); double = class(values)
the call:
cspice_pdpool( name, values )
returns:
Inserts the variable `name' into the kernel pool with values as
defined in `values'.
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 code shows how a topocentric frame for a
point on the surface of the earth may be defined at run time using
cspice_pcpool, cspice_pdpool, and cspice_pipool. In this example,
the surface point is associated with the body code 300000. To
facilitate testing, the location of the surface point coincides
with that of the DSN station DSS-12; the reference frame MYTOPO
defined here coincides with the reference frame DSS-12_TOPO.

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:

When this program was executed on a Mac/Intel/Octave6.x/64-bit
platform, the output was:

This routine provides a programmatic interface for inserting
data into the SPICE kernel pool without reading an external file.
1) If `name' is already present in the kernel pool and there
is sufficient room to hold all values supplied in `values',
the old values associated with `name' will be overwritten.
2) If there is not sufficient room to insert a new variable into
the kernel pool and `name' is not already present in the kernel
pool, an error is signaled by a routine in the call tree of
this routine.
3) If there is not sufficient room to insert the values
associated with `name', the error SPICE(NOMOREROOM) is signaled
by a routine in the call tree of this routine.
4) If the kernel pool variable name length exceeds its maximum
allowed length (see Kernel Required Reading, kernel.req), the
error SPICE(BADVARNAME) is signaled by a routine in the call
tree of this routine.
5) If any of the input arguments, `name' or `values', is
undefined, an error is signaled by the Matlab error handling
system.
6) If any of the input arguments, `name' or `values', is not of
the expected type, or it does not have the expected dimensions
and size, an error is signaled by the Mice interface.
None.
