Detailed Description

ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR class definition.

Table in GBT archive/Antenna file. This class contains tabular data and allows access. This class is derived from the ObitTable class. Secondary Focus receivers.

This class contains tabular data and allows access. ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR" An ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR is the front end to a persistent disk resident structure. This class is derived from the ObitTable class.

Table data storage

In memory tables are stored in a fashion similar to how they are stored on disk - in large blocks in memory rather than structures. Due to the word alignment requirements of some machines, they are stored by order of the decreasing element size: double, float long, int, short, char rather than the logical order. The details of the storage in the buffer are kept in the #ObitTableGBTANTPOSGRDesc.

In addition to the normal tabular data, a table will have a "_status" column to indicate the status of each row. The status value is read from and written to (some modification) AIPS tables but are not written to externally generated FITS tables which don't have these colummns. It will be written to Obit generated tables which will have these columns. Status values:

• status = 0 => normal
• status = 1 => row has been modified (or created) and needs to be written.
• status = -1 => row has been marked invalid.

Specifying desired data transfer parameters

The desired data transfers are specified in the member ObitInfoList. There are separate sets of parameters used to specify the FITS data files. In the following an ObitInfoList entry is defined by the name in double quotes, the data type code as an #ObitInfoType enum and the dimensions of the array (? => depends on application). To specify whether the underlying data files are FITS

• "FileType" OBIT_int (1,1,1) OBIT_IO_FITS which are values of an #ObitIOType enum defined in ObitIO.h.

The following apply to both types of files:

• "nRowPIO", OBIT_int, Max. Number of visibilities per "Read" or "Write" operation. Default = 1.

FITS files

This implementation uses cfitsio which allows using, in addition to regular FITS images, gzip compressed files, pipes, shared memory and a number of other input forms. The convenience Macro #ObitTableGBTANTPOSGRSetFITS simplifies specifying the desired data. Binary tables are used for storing visibility data in FITS. For accessing FITS files the following entries in the ObitInfoList are used:

• "FileName" OBIT_string (?,1,1) FITS file name.
• "TabName" OBIT_string (?,1,1) Table name (e.g. "AIPS CC").
• "Ver" OBIT_int (1,1,1) Table version number

Creators and Destructors

An ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR can be created using newObitTableGBTANTPOSGRValue which attaches the table to an ObitData for the object. If the output ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR has previously been specified, including file information, then ObitTableGBTANTPOSGRCopy will copy the disk resident as well as the memory resident information.

A copy of a pointer to an ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR should always be made using the ObitTableGBTANTPOSGRRef function which updates the reference count in the object. Then whenever freeing an ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR or changing a pointer, the function ObitTableGBTANTPOSGRUnref will decrement the reference count and destroy the object when the reference count hits 0.

I/O

Visibility data is available after an input object is "Opened" and "Read". I/O optionally uses a buffer attached to the ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR or some external location. To Write an ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR, create it, open it, and write. The object should be closed to ensure all data is flushed to disk. Deletion of an ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR after its final unreferencing will automatically close it.

Function Documentation

ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR* newObitTableGBTANTPOSGR (  gchar *  name  )

Public: Constructor. Initializes class if needed on first call. Parameters: name  An optional name for the object. Returns: the new object.

ObitTableGBTANTPOSGRRow* newObitTableGBTANTPOSGRRow (  ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR *  table  )

Public: Constructor. If table is open and for write, the row is attached to the buffer Initializes Row class if needed on first call. Parameters: name  An optional name for the object. Returns: the new object.

ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR* newObitTableGBTANTPOSGRValue (  gchar *  name, Obit *  file, glong *  ver, ObitIOAccess  access, ObitErr *  err )

Public: Constructor from values. Creates a new table structure and attaches to the TableList of file. If the specified table already exists then it is returned. Initializes class if needed on first call. Forces an update of any disk resident structures (e.g. AIPS header). Parameters: name  An optional name for the object. file  ObitData which which the table is to be associated. ver  Table version number. 0=> add higher, value used returned access  access (OBIT_IO_ReadOnly, means do not create if it doesn't exist. err  Error stack, returns if not empty. Returns: the new object, NULL on failure.

void ObitTableGBTANTPOSGRClassInit (  void   )

ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR* ObitTableGBTANTPOSGRCopy (  ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR *  in, ObitTableGBTANTPOSGR *  out, ObitErr *  err )

Public: Copy (deep) constructor. Copies are made of complex members including disk files; these will be copied applying whatever selection is associated with the input. Objects should be closed on input and will be closed on output. In order for the disk file structures to be copied, the output file must be sufficiently defined that it can be written. The copy will be attempted but no errors will be logged until both input and output have been successfully opened. ObitInfoList and ObitThread members are only copied if the output object didn't previously exist. Parent class members are included but any derived class info is ignored.
