INSERT ARGUMENT COUNT

Syntax:

INSERT ARGUMENT COUNT [:] <symbol> [ [,] <symbol> ]...

Function:

A new leading argument is added to all invocations of each named subroutine or function which is the count of the total number of arguments after the insertion (i.e. including the new argument). The argument is written as an integer literal number. The fpt directive ARGUMENT COUNT INSERTED is written in a comment immediately in front of the modified statement. This signals to fpt that the insertion has been made, and prevents multiple insertions if fpt is re-run.

Where to Use this Command

Operating system command line	Yes
Configuration file, config.fsp	Yes
Specification (fsp) files, *.fsp	Yes
Interactively, to FPT> prompt	Yes
Interactive command files	Yes
Embedded in the Fortran code	Yes

Default

No change is made by default.

Examples

The subroutine MPLOT accepts a variable number of arguments. fpt is run with an fsp file containing the command:

% insert argument count: MPLOT

The original source reads:

CALL MPLOT(X1,Y1,X2,Y2) CALL MPLOT(XA1,YA1,XA2,YA2,XA3,YA3)

The code output by fpt is:

!% ARGUMENT COUNT INSERTED: MPLOT CALL MPLOT ( 5, X1, Y1, X2, Y2 ) !% ARGUMENT COUNT INSERTED: MPLOT CALL MPLOT ( 7, XA1, YA1, XA2, YA2, XA3, YA3 )
