NDG_NDFCR - Obtain an NDF identifier for a new simple NDF

Description:

The routine returns an NDF identifier for a new simple NDF created with the specified attributes. The name of the new NDF is held at a given index within a given group. It is equivalent to NDF_CREAT.

Invocation:

CALL NDG_NDFCR( IGRP, INDEX, FTYPE, NDIM, LBND, UBND, INDF, STATUS )

Arguments:

IGRP = INTEGER (Given)

A GRP identifier for a group holding the names of NDFs. This will often be created using NDG_CREAT, but groups created "by hand" using GRP directly can also be used.

INDEX = INTEGER (Given)

The index within the group at which the name of the NDF to be created is stored.

FTYPE = CHARACTER $*$ ( $*$ ) (Given)

Full data type of the NDF's DATA component (e.g. '_DOUBLE' or 'COMPLEX_REAL').

NDIM = INTEGER (Given)

Number of NDF dimensions.

LBND( NDIM ) = INTEGER (Given)

Lower pixel-index bounds of the NDF.

UBND( NDIM ) = INTEGER (Given)

Upper pixel-index bounds of the NDF.

INDF = INTEGER (Returned)

NDF identifier.

STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)

The global status.
