GPQAI - Inquire List of Available Application Image Formats

GPQAI (start, number, errind, totnum, format)

Note:

This subroutine is a graPHIGS API Description Table (PDT) inquiry. For an overview, see "PDT Inquiries"

Purpose

Use GPQAI to inquire the list of available application image formats.

If the inquired information is available, then the graPHIGS API sets the error indicator to zero and returns the values in the output parameters. If the error indicator is 543 (the start value exceeds the extent of the available data), then only the total number (totnum) parameter is set. If the inquired information is unavailable, then the error indicator (errind) contains an error number indicating the reason, and the values returned in the output parameters are unpredictable.

Parameters

start -- specified by user, fullword integer

Starting member in the list of available application image formats (>=1)

number -- specified by user, fullword integer

Number of image formats requested (>=0)

errind -- returned by the graPHIGS API, fullword integer

Error indicator. If the error indicator is zero, the request has been completed. Otherwise, one of the following errors exists:

538: START VALUE < ONE
539: REQUESTED NUMBER < ZERO
543: START EXCEEDS DATA EXTENT. TOTAL NUMBER AVAILABLE RETURNED

totnum -- returned by the graPHIGS API, fullword integer

Total number of available application image formats.

format -- returned by the graPHIGS API, array of fullword integers

List of application image formats (1=PIXEL_ARRAY )
