NAME¶
MPNAME - Given the area identifier of one of the areas defined by whatever
database was last read by one of the EZMAPB routines MPLNAM, MPLNDM, MPLNDR,
and MPLNRI, this function returns the name of the area.
SYNOPSIS¶
CHARACTER*64 MPNAME,NAME
NAME=MPNAME(IAIN)
C-BINDING SYNOPSIS¶
#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>
char *c_mpname (int iain)
DESCRIPTION¶
- IAIN
- is an input expression of type INTEGER, specifying the area identifier of
a particular area of interest.
C-BINDING DESCRIPTION¶
The C-binding argument description is the same as the FORTRAN argument
description.
USAGE¶
Given the declaration "CHARACTER*64 MPNAME,NAME", the executable
statement "NAME=MPNAME(IAIN)" will retrieve in NAME the name of the
area with area identifier IAIN. For example, if IMAD is the area identifier of
the little island in Lake Superior called "Lake Madeline", then
MPNAME(IMAD) = 'Madeline Island (Lake Superior)'.
To get the name of the area, at a specified level, that contains an area with a
specified area identifier, use MPNAME in combination with MPIOAR. For example,
MPNAME(MPIOAR(IMAD,3)) = 'Conterminous US', and MPNAME(MPIOAR(IMAD,2)) =
'North America'.
EXAMPLES¶
Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant examples: mpex11, mpex12.
ACCESS¶
To use MPNAME or c_mpname, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks,
and ncarg_c, preferably in that order.
