PXFFILENO - Returns the file descriptor for a specified unit
As shipped in IRIX 6.5.22. Last changed in IRIX 6.5.19.
NAME PXFFILENO - Returns the file descriptor for a specified unit SYNOPSIS INTEGER IUNIT, IFILDES, IERROR CALL PXFFILENO (iunit, ifildes, ierror) DESCRIPTION This routine is supported on IRIX systems for programs compiled using the MIPSpro 7 Fortran 90 compiler or compiled with the -craylibs option to the MIPSpro F77 compiler. The PXFFILENO() subroutine returns in the ifildes argument the file descriptor to which the unit identified by iunit is connected. Processing of some Fortran file types includes library buffering or the addition of control words to the data written. Users should be aware of this when attempting to make use of the file descriptor associated with a Fortran unit. Some Fortran units may not be connected to a file descriptor. For example, a file assigned the attributes -F mr.scr.novfl is not connected to a file descriptor. All arguments must be of default kind unless documented otherwise. On IRIX systems, the default kind is KIND=4. The following is a list of arguments to PXFFILENO: iunit An input integer variable that contains the Fortran unit number. ifildes An output integer variable containing the file descriptor of the file identified by iunit. ierror An output integer variable containing the status. NOTES The PXF_DEFINITIONS module can be used by Fortran 90 users to enable caller-callee interface checking. RETURN VALUES Upon successful completion of PXFFILENO(), ierror is set to 0. If any of the following conditions occur, ierror is set to the corresponding value: EINVAL iunit is not an open unit EBADF iunit is not connected with a file descriptor
