LENGTH - Returns the number of words transferred
LENGTH ([I=]i)
UNICOS, UNICOS/mk, and IRIX systems
CF90 and MIPSpro 7 Fortran 90 compiler extension to Fortran 90
LENGTH returns the length (in words) of a BUFFER IN or BUFFER OUT
statement transfer. It accepts the following argument:
i Must be a nonnegative integer or Boolean value. Represents a
unit number.
If i is an integer, i must be of KIND=8 on UNICOS and UNICOS/mk
systems, or of KIND=4 on IRIX systems.
LENGTH is an elemental function. The name of this intrinsic cannot be
passed as an argument.
On UNICOS and UNICOS/mk systems, LENGTH can be called as either an
external subprogram or as an intrinsic procedure.
The value returned is of type default integer.
If the LENGTH function is called during the execution of asynchronous
I/O with BUFFER IN or BUFFER OUT, the execution sequence is delayed
until the transfer is complete. LENGTH then returns the number of
words successfully transferred. On UNICOS and UNICOS/mk systems, the
length is specified in Cray words. On IRIX systems, the length is
specified in the default word size.
Programs that transfer characters or data from a medium that supports
partial-word I/O cannot detect partial-word transfers. The return
value is rounded up to a word count in these cases.
The return value is 0 under the following two conditions:
* An end-of-file or error occurs
* It is following a read or write of a zero-length record.
UNIT(3I) should be used prior to LENGTH to properly distinguish these
previous two cases.
