NAG Library Routine Document

X04ABF

Records written to this output unit by other library routines are at most 120 characters long (including a line-printer carriage control character), unless those library routines allow you to specify longer records.

Note that if the unit number is set <0, no messages will be output.

4 References

None.

5 Parameters

1: IFLAG – INTEGERInput: On entry: the action to be taken (see NADV).
Constraint: IFLAG=0 or 1.
2: NADV – INTEGERInput/Output: On entry: if IFLAG=0, NADV need not be set.
If IFLAG=1, NADV must specify the new advisory message unit number.

On exit: if IFLAG=0, NADV is set to the current advisory message unit number.
If IFLAG=1, NADV is unchanged.

Note that Fortran unit numbers must be positive or zero. If NADV is set <0, output of advisory messages is totally suppressed.

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

None.

7 Accuracy

Not applicable.

8 Further Comments

The time taken by X04ABF is negligible.

9 Example

In this example X04ABF is called by your main program to make the advisory message from the routine DUMMY appear on the same unit as the rest of the output (unit 6). Normally a NAG Library routine with an IFAIL parameter (see Chapter P01) would take the place of DUMMY.
