1 Purpose

h02zlf is used to query the value of optional parameters available to supported problem solving routines in Chapter H.
Currently, only h02daf is supported.

2 Specification

Fortran Interface
Subroutine h02zlf ( optstr, ivalue, rvalue, cvalue, optype, iopts, opts, ifail)
Integer, Intent (In) :: iopts(*)
Integer, Intent (Inout) :: ifail
Integer, Intent (Out) :: ivalue, optype
Real (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (In) :: opts(*)
Real (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (Out) :: rvalue
Character (*), Intent (In) :: optstr
Character (*), Intent (Out) :: cvalue
C Header Interface
#include <nag.h>
void  h02zlf_ (const char *optstr, Integer *ivalue, double *rvalue, char *cvalue, Integer *optype, const Integer iopts[], const double opts[], Integer *ifail, const Charlen length_optstr, const Charlen length_cvalue)
The routine may be called by the names h02zlf or nagf_mip_optget.

3 Description

h02zlf is used to query the current values of options. It is necessary to initialize optional parameter arrays using h02zkf before any options are queried.
h02zlf will normally return either an integer, real or character value dependent upon the type associated with the optional parameter being queried. Some real and integer options also return additional information in cvalue. Whether the option queried is of integer, real or character type, and whether additional information is returned in cvalue, is indicated by the returned value of optype.
Information on optional parameter names and whether these options are real, integer or character can be found in Section 11 in h02daf.

5 Arguments

1: optstr Character(*) Input
On entry: a string identifying the option whose current value is required. See Section 11 in h02daf for information on valid options. In addition, the following is a valid option:
Identify
h02zlf returns in cvalue the (upper-cased) routine name supplied to h02zkf when the optional parameter arrays iopts and opts were initialized.
2: ivalue Integer Output
On exit: if the optional parameter supplied in optstr is an integer valued parameter, ivalue will hold its current value.
3: rvalue Real (Kind=nag_wp) Output
On exit: if the optional parameter supplied in optstr is a real valued parameter, rvalue will hold its current value.
4: cvalue Character(*) Output
Note: the string returned in cvalue will never exceed 40 characters in length.
On exit: if the optional parameter supplied in optstr is a character valued parameter, cvalue will hold its current value. cvalue will also contain additional information for some integer and real valued parameters, as indicated by optype.
5: optype Integer Output
On exit: indicates whether the optional parameter supplied in optstr is an integer, real or character valued parameter and hence which of ivalue, rvalue or cvalue holds the current value.
optype=1
optstr is an integer valued optional parameter, its current value has been returned in ivalue.
optype=2
optstr is a real valued optional parameter, its current value has been returned in rvalue.
optype=3
optstr is a character valued optional parameter, its current value has been returned in cvalue.
optype=4
optstr is an integer valued optional parameter, its current value has been returned in ivalue. Additional information has been returned in cvalue.
optype=5
optstr is a real valued optional parameter, its current value has been returned in rvalue. Additional information has been returned in cvalue.
6: iopts(*) Integer array Communication Array
Note: the dimension of this array is dictated by the requirements of associated functions that must have been previously called. This array must be the same array passed as argument iopts in the previous call to h02zkf.
7: opts(*) Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Communication Array
Note: the dimension of this array is dictated by the requirements of associated functions that must have been previously called. This array must be the same array passed as argument opts in the previous call to h02zkf.
8: ifail Integer Input/Output
On entry: ifail must be set to 0, −1 or 1 to set behaviour on detection of an error; these values have no effect when no error is detected.
A value of 0 causes the printing of an error message and program execution will be halted; otherwise program execution continues. A value of −1 means that an error message is printed while a value of 1 means that it is not.
If halting is not appropriate, the value −1 or 1 is recommended. If message printing is undesirable, then the value 1 is recommended. Otherwise, the value 0 is recommended. When the value -1 or 1 is used it is essential to test the value of ifail on exit.
On exit: ifail=0 unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see Section 6).

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

If on entry ifail=0 or −1, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by x04aaf).
Errors or warnings detected by the routine:
ifail=11
On entry, the option in optstr has not been recognized.
ifail=41
On entry, optstr indicates a character optional parameter, but cvalue is too short to hold the stored value. The returned value will be truncated.
ifail=61
The arrays iopts and opts have either not been initialized, have become corrupted, or are not compatible with this option setting routine.
ifail=-99
An unexpected error has been triggered by this routine. Please contact NAG.
See Section 7 in the Introduction to the NAG Library FL Interface for further information.
ifail=-399
Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.

ifail=-999
Dynamic memory allocation failed.

Not applicable.

8 Parallelism and Performance

Background information to multithreading can be found in the Multithreading documentation.
h02zlf is not threaded in any implementation.
