scf2read(3) Staden Package scf2read(3)NAME
scf2read, read2scf, exp2read, read2exp - Translate to and from the Read
structure.
SYNOPSIS
#include <Read.h>
Read *scf2read(
Scf *scf);
Scf *read2scf(
Read *read);
Exp_info *read2exp(
Read *read,
char *EN);
Read *exp2read(
Exp_info *e);
DESCRIPTION
These functions are used internally by the io library for converting
between the in memory representations of the supported file formats.
The Read structure is the central format so only conversion to and from
this structure is available. Conversions consist of to and from the SCF
format and to and from the Experiment File format.
scf2read() converts an Scf structure into a Read structure. The Read
structure is allocated by the function. The Scf structure is left
unchanged.
read2scf() converts a Read structure into an Scf structure. The Scf
structure is allocated by the function. The Read structure is left
unchanged.
exp2read() converts an Exp_info structure into a Read structure. The
entryname to use in the EN line type of the Experiment File must be
specified. The Read structure is allocated by the function. The
Exp_info structure is left unchanged.
read2exp() converts a Read structure into an Exp_info structure. The
Exp_info structure is allocated by the function. The Read structure is
left unchanged.
RETURN VALUES
On successful completion, the scf2read() and exp2read functions return
a pointer to an allocated Read structure. Otherwise these functions
return NULLRead.
On successful completion, the read2scf function returns a pointer to an
allocated Scf structure. Otherwise this function returns a null
pointer.
On successful completion, the read2exp function returns a pointer to an
allocated Exp_info structure. Otherwise this function returns a null
pointer.
