   Variable  I/O  Description 
   --------  ---  -------------------------------------------------- 
   spk        I   Name of SPK file. 
   idcode     I   ID code of ephemeris object. 
   cover      O   Window giving coverage in `spk' for `idcode'. 
 

Detailed_Input

 
   spk            is the name of an SPK file. 
    
   idcode         is the integer ID code of an object for which 
                  ephemeris data are expected to exist in the 
                  specified SPK file. 
 
   cover          is an initialized CSPICE window data structure. 
                  `cover' optionally may contain coverage data on 
                  input; on output, the data already present in 
                  `cover' will be combined with coverage found for the 
                  object designated by `idcode' in the file `spk'. 
 
                  If `cover' contains no data on input, its size and 
                  cardinality still must be initialized. 
                   

Detailed_Output

 
   cover          is a CSPICE window data structure which 
                  represents the merged coverage for `idcode'. This is 
                  the set of time intervals for which data for 
                  `idcode' are present in the file `spk', merged with 
                  the set of time intervals present in `cover' on 
                  input.  The merged coverage is represented as the 
                  union of one or more disjoint time intervals. The 
                  window `cover' contains the pairs of endpoints of 
                  these intervals. 
 
                  The interval endpoints contained in `cover' are 
                  ephemeris times, expressed as seconds past J2000 
                  TDB. 
 
                  See the Examples section below for a complete 
                  example program showing how to retrieve the 
                  endpoints from `cover'. 
                                     

Parameters

 
   None. 
 

Exceptions

 
   1)  If the input file has transfer format, the error  
       SPICE(INVALIDFORMAT) is signaled. 
 
   2)  If the input file is not a transfer file but has architecture 
       other than DAF, the error SPICE(BADARCHTYPE) is signaled. 
 
   3)  If the input file is a binary DAF file of type other than 
       SPK, the error SPICE(BADFILETYPE) is signaled. 
 
   4)  If the SPK file cannot be opened or read, the error will 
       be diagnosed by routines called by this routine. The output 
       window will not be modified. 
       routines called by this routine. 

   5)  If the size of the output window argument `cover' is
       insufficient to contain the actual number of intervals in the
       coverage window for `idcode', the error will be diagnosed by
       routines called by this routine.
 
   6) The error SPICE(EMPTYSTRING) is signaled if the input
      string `spk' does not contain at least one character, since the
      input string cannot be converted to a Fortran-style string in
      this case.
      
   7) The error SPICE(NULLPOINTER) is signaled if the input string
      pointer `spk' is null.

Particulars

 
   This routine provides an API via which applications can determine 
   the coverage a specified SPK file provides for a specified 
   ephemeris object. 
 

Examples

 

   1)  Display the coverage for each object in a specified SPK file. 
       Find the set of objects in the file.  Loop over the contents 
       of the ID code set:  find the coverage for each item in the 
       set and display the coverage.

Version

   -CSPICE Version 1.0.3, 14-JUN-2016 (EDW)

       Edit to example program to use "%d" with explicit casts
       to int for printing SpiceInts with printf.

   -CSPICE Version 1.0.2, 01-JUL-2014 (NJB)

       Added new index entries.

   -CSPICE Version 1.0.1, 30-NOV-2007 (NJB)

       Corrected bug in first example program in header:
       program now empties result window prior to collecting
       data for each object. Deleted declaration of unused
       constant NAMLEN. Updated examples to use wncard_c
