Brief_I/O

 
   Variable  I/O  Description 
   --------  ---  -------------------------------------------------- 
   code       I   Integer surface ID code to translate to a string. 
   bodyid     I   ID code of body associated with surface. 
   srflen     I   Length of output string `srfstr'.
   srfstr     O   String corresponding to surface ID code. 
   isname     O   Logical flag indicating output is a surface name. 
   SPICE_SRF_SFNMLN
              P   Maximum length of surface name. 
 

Detailed_Input

 
   code       is an integer code for a surface associated with a body.
 
   bodyid     is an integer code for the body associated with the
              surface designated by `code'. The combination of `code'
              and `bodyid' is to be mapped to a surface name.

   srflen     is the maximum number of characters that can be
              accommodated in the output string `srfstr'. This count
              includes room for the terminating null character.
              Normally `srflen' should be set to the value of the 
              parameter SPICE_SRF_SFNMLN.

Detailed_Output

 
   srfstr     the name of the surface identified by `code', for the
              body designated by `bodyid', if an association exists
              between this pair of ID codes and a surface name.
 
              If `code' has more than one translation, then the most 
              recently defined surface name corresponding to `code' is 
              returned. `srfstr' will have the exact format (case and 
              embedded blanks) used in the definition of the 
              name/code association. 
 
              If the input pair of codes does not map to a surface 
              name, `srfstr' is set to the string representation of 
              `code'.  
 
              `srfstr' should be declared with length 

                 SPICE_SRF_SFNMLN 

              (see the Parameters section below). 
 
 
   isname     is a logical flag that is SPICETRUE if a surface name
              corresponding to the input ID codes was found and
              SPICEFALSE otherwise. When `isname' is SPICEFALSE, the
              output string `srfstr' contains a string representing the
              integer `code'.
 

Parameters

 
   SPICE_SRF_SFNMLN  

              is the maximum length of a surface name. This  
              parameter is declared in the CSPICE header file  
 
                 SpiceSrf.h
 

Exceptions

 
   1)  If the input surface ID code cannot be mapped to a name, the 
       output `srfstr' is set to a string representation of the code. 
       The input body ID is ignored. The output `isname' is set to  
       SPICEFALSE.
 
       This case is not treated as an error. 

   2)  The error SPICE(NULLPOINTER) is signaled if the output string
       pointer is null.

   3)  The caller must pass a value indicating the length of the output
       string. If this value is not at least 2, the error
       SPICE(STRINGTOOSHORT) is signaled.
 

Files

      
   Surface name-to-ID mappings may be defined at run time by loading
   text kernels containing kernel variable assignments of the form
 
      NAIF_SURFACE_NAME += ( <surface name 1>, ... ) 
      NAIF_SURFACE_CODE += ( <surface code 1>, ... ) 
      NAIF_SURFACE_BODY += ( <body code 1>,    ... ) 
 
   Above, the Ith elements of the lists on the assignments' right
   hand sides together define the Ith surface name/ID mapping.
 
   The same effect can be achieved using assignments formatted as 
   follows: 
 
      NAIF_SURFACE_NAME += <surface name 1> 
      NAIF_SURFACE_CODE += <surface code 1> 
      NAIF_SURFACE_BODY += <body code 1> 
 
      NAIF_SURFACE_NAME += <surface name 2> 
      NAIF_SURFACE_CODE += <surface code 2> 
      NAIF_SURFACE_BODY += <body code 2> 
 
         ... 
 
   Note the use of the 
 
      += 
 
   operator; this operator appends to rather than overwrites the 
   kernel variable named on the left hand side of the assignment.  
 

Particulars

 
 
   Surfaces are always associated with bodies (which usually are 
   ephemeris objects). For any given body, a mapping between surface 
   names and surface ID codes can be established.  
 
   Bodies serve to disambiguate surface names and ID codes: the set 
   of surface names and surface ID codes for a given body can be 
   thought of as belonging to a name space. A given surface ID code 
   or surface name may be used for surfaces of multiple bodies, 
   without conflict. 
 
   Associations between surface names and ID codes are always made 
   via kernel pool assignments; there are no built-in associations. 
 
   srfc2s_c is one of four related subroutines: 
 
      srfs2c_c    Surface string and body string to surface ID code 
      srfscc_c    Surface string and body ID code to surface ID code 
      srfc2s_c    Surface ID code and body ID code to surface string 
      srfcss_c    Surface ID code and body string to surface string 
 
   srfs2c_c, srfc2s_c, srfscc_c, and srfcss_c perform translations
   between surface strings and their corresponding integer ID codes.
 
   Refer to naif_ids.req for details concerning adding new surface 
   name/code associations at run time by loading text kernels. 
 
 

Examples

 
   The formatting of the results shown for this example may differ 
   across platforms. 
 
   1) Supposed a text kernel has been loaded that contains 
      the following assignments: 
 
         NAIF_SURFACE_NAME += ( 'MGS MOLA  64 pixel/deg', 
                                'MGS MOLA 128 pixel/deg', 
                                'PHOBOS GASKELL Q512'     ) 
         NAIF_SURFACE_CODE += (   1,   2,    1 ) 
         NAIF_SURFACE_BODY += ( 499, 499,  401 ) 
 
      Translate each surface and body ID code pair to the  
      associated surface name. Also perform a translation 
      for a surface ID having no matching name. 
                   
      Use the meta-kernel shown below to define the required SPICE
      kernel variables.
