SDsetdimscale/sfsdscale

intn SDsetdimscale(int32 dim_id, int32 count, int32 data_type, VOIDP data)
dim_id

IN:

Dimension identifier returned from SDgetdimid

count

IN:

Total number of values along the specified dimension

data_type

IN:

Data type of the values along the specified dimension

data

IN:

Value of each increment along the specified dimension

Purpose

Stores the values of the specified dimension.

Return value

Returns SUCCEED (or 0) if successful and FAIL (or -1) otherwise.

Description

Users should note that it is possible to store values for a dimension without naming it. Even though its redundant, the count argument has been included for backward compatibility. Note that there is now a data_type parameter so the dimension scales are no longer required to be the same data type as the dataset.

FORTRAN

integer function sfsdscale(dim_id, count, data_type, data)

integer dim_id, count, data_type

character* (*) data
