PXFSTAT(3F)					       Last changed: 1-6-98

NAME
     PXFSTAT - Retrieves the file status

SYNOPSIS
     INTEGER jstat, ilen, ierror
     CALL PXFSTAT(path, ilen, jstat, ierror)

IMPLEMENTATION
     UNICOS, UNICOS/mk, and IRIX systems

STANDARDS
     IEEE standard interface for FORTRAN 77

DESCRIPTION
     On IRIX systems, this routine is in libfortran.so which is linked by
     default when compiling programs with the MIPSpro 7 Fortran 90 compiler
     or when compiling programs with the -craylibs option to the MIPSpro
     7.2 F77 compiler.

     The PXFSTAT routine uses the stat system call to get the file status.

     When using the CF90 compiler or MIPSpro 7 Fortran 90 compiler on
     UNICOS, UNICOS/mk, or IRIX systems, all arguments must be of default
     kind unless documented otherwise.	On UNICOS and UNICOS/mk, default
     kind is KIND=8 for integer, real, complex, and logical arguments; on
     IRIX, the default kind is KIND=4.

     The following is a list of arguments for this routine:

     path    An input character variable or array element containing the
	     name of a file.

     ilen    An input integer variable containing the length of path in
	     characters.  If ilen is zero, all trailing blanks are removed
	     before calling stat().

     jstat   An input integer variable or array element containing a handle
	     for a stat structure.  This handle should have been created by
	     a call to the PXFSTRUCTCREATE(3F) routine.

     ierror  An output integer variable that contains the status:

	     Zero    PXFSTAT returned the status information.

	     Nonzero PXFSTAT was unable to return the status.

     In addition to errors returned by the stat(2) system call, the
     following errors may occur:

     EINVAL	  If ilen < 0 or ilen > LEN(path).

     ENOMEM	  If PXFSTAT is unable to obtain memory to copy path.

     EBADHANDLE	  If jstat is an invalid handle or has an incorrect handle
		  type (UNICOS and UNICOS/mk systems only).

     The stat structure contains the following components:

     * st_mode:	 File mode.

     * st_ino:	File serial number.

     * st_dev:	ID of device containing the file.

     * st_nlink:  Number of links.

     * st_uid:	User id of the owner of the file.

     * st_gid:	Group id of the owner of the file.

     * st_size:	 File size in bytes for regular files.	Unspecified for
       other files.

     * st_atime:  Last time that data within the file was accessed.

     * st_mtime:  Last time that data in the file was modified.

     * st_ctime:  Last time that file status was changed.

EXAMPLES
	  program test
	  character*10 path
	  integer ilen, jstat, ierr,imode, istino
	  path = 'stt.f'
	  call pxfstructcreate('stat',jstat,ierr)
	     print *,'structcreate error = ',ierr
	  ilen=0
	  call pxfstat(path, ilen, jstat, ierr)
	  if (ierr.ne.0) then
	     print *,'FAIL: error from pxfstat = ',ierr
	  else
	     print *,'PASS: No error from pxfstat = '
	  endif
	  call pxfintget(jstat,'st_ino',istino,ierr)
	  call pxfintget(jstat,'mode',imode,ierr)
	  print *,'st_ino = ',istino
	  print *,'mode = ',imode
	  call pxfstructfree(stat,ierr)
	  end
