| 5 | ; NAME:createfunc |
|---|
| 6 | ; |
|---|
| 7 | ; PURPOSE: write an idl function, compile it and execute it. |
|---|
| 8 | ; usefull to avoid the use of execute |
|---|
| 9 | ; |
|---|
| 10 | ; CATEGORY: |
|---|
| 11 | ; |
|---|
| 12 | ; CALLING SEQUENCE:res = createfunc(command) |
|---|
| 13 | ; |
|---|
| 14 | ; INPUTS: |
|---|
| 15 | ; command: a scalar string defining the result to be byven back by the |
|---|
| 16 | ; function. (see examples) |
|---|
| 17 | ; |
|---|
| 18 | ; KEYWORD PARAMETERS: |
|---|
| 19 | ; |
|---|
| 20 | ; FILENAMEIN: name of the funccedure to be created. |
|---|
| 21 | ; 'for_createfunc.pro' by default |
|---|
| 22 | ; |
|---|
| 23 | ; KWDLIST: a vector string. to specify a list of keywords that |
|---|
| 24 | ; must be included in the function definition. Warning: the string |
|---|
| 25 | ; must start with a ',' for example: KWDLIST = ', TOTO = toto' |
|---|
| 26 | ; |
|---|
| 27 | ; _EXTRA: used to pass your keywords to the created function. |
|---|
| 28 | ; |
|---|
| 29 | ; OUTPUTS: none |
|---|
| 30 | ; |
|---|
| 31 | ; COMMON BLOCKS: none |
|---|
| 32 | ; |
|---|
| 33 | ; SIDE EFFECTS: ends the function name with '.pro' if needed |
|---|
| 34 | ; |
|---|
| 35 | ; RESTRICTIONS:arguments can be given only through keywords |
|---|
| 36 | ; |
|---|
| 37 | ; EXAMPLE: |
|---|
| 38 | ; IDL> print, createfunc('3*2', filename='test') |
|---|
| 39 | ; IDL> print, createfunc('3*two', filename = 'test' $ |
|---|
| 40 | ; , kwdlist ='two = two', two = 2) |
