CreateListVarFromPtr

a C interface function which allows to create a new Scilab parameter from a pointer in a [mt]list

Calling Sequence

CreateListVarFrom(StackPos, Type, &m_rows, &n_cols, &l_stack_list_pos, void * Pointer);

Arguments

StackPos

the rank of the parameter to be created (input parameter)

Type

the Scilab type of the parameter to be created (input parameter). Can be (see Scilab C Type for more informations):

  • STRING_DATATYPE "c"

  • MATRIX_OF_STRING_DATATYPE "S"

  • MATRIX_OF_DOUBLE_DATATYPE "d"

  • MATRIX_OF_RATIONAL_DATATYPE "r"

  • MATRIX_OF_VARIABLE_SIZE_INTEGER_DATATYPE "I"

  • MATRIX_OF_INTEGER_DATATYPE "i"

  • MATRIX_OF_BOOLEAN_DATATYPE "b"

  • MATRIX_OF_COMPLEX_DATATYPE "z"

  • SPARSE_MATRIX_DATATYPE "s"

  • TYPED_LIST_DATATYPE "t"

  • MATRIX_ORIENTED_TYPED_LIST_DATATYPE "m"

  • SCILAB_POINTER_DATATYPE "p"

  • GRAPHICAL_HANDLE_DATATYPE "h"

  • EXTERNAL_DATATYPE "f"

  • MATRIX_OF_POLYNOMIAL_DATATYPE "x"

m_rows

the number of lines of the matrix to be created (input parameter)

n_cols

the number of columns of the matrix to be created (input parameter)

l_stack_list_pos

the position in the Scilab memory of the created parameter in the list (output parameter)

Pointer

the pointer to the data area (input parameter)

Description

A C interface function which allows to create a new Scilab parameter from a pointer in a [mt]list

Examples

#include <stack-c.h>
#include <string.h>

int sci_create_list(char * fname)
{
  int m_list_out, n_list_out;
  int m_var1,     n_var1,     l_var1,  l_list_var1;
  int m_var2,     n_var2,     l_var2,  l_list_var2;
  int m_mlist,    n_mlist,    l_mlist;
 
  // The labels of our mlist 
  static const char * ListLabels [] = {"mylist","var1","var2"};

  // First, we create the variables using a classical way
  // The size of the Scilab variables
  m_var1  = 1; n_var1  = strlen("a string")+1; // a null terminated string
  m_var2  = 2; n_var2  = 2; // A 2x2 double matrix
  m_mlist = 3; n_mlist = 1; // A mlist with 3 elements
  
  // Creation of the Scilab variables
  // A('var1')
  CreateVar(1, "c", &m_var1,  &n_var1,  &l_var1);
  // A('var2')
  CreateVar(2, "d", &m_var2,  &n_var2,  &l_var2);
  // A
  CreateVar(3, "m", &m_mlist, &n_mlist, &l_mlist);
  
  // We store values in the create variables
  // The matrix will be stored in A('var2')
  *stk(l_var2+0) = 1;              
  *stk(l_var2+1) = 2;              
  *stk(l_var2+2) = 3;              
  *stk(l_var2+3) = 4;              
  
  // The string will be stored in A('var1')
  strncpy(cstk(l_var1),"a string\0",n_var1);
  
  m_list_out = 3; n_list_out = 1;
  
  // now, affect the variable  to the mlist
  // The labels (it corresponds to A = mlist(['mylist','var1','var2'], ...
  CreateListVarFromPtr(3, 1, "S", &m_list_out, &n_list_out, ListLabels);
  // The value stored in A('var1') (it corresponds to A = ...,'a string', ...
  CreateListVarFrom(3, 2, "c", &m_var1, &n_var1, &l_list_var1, &l_var1);
  // The value stored in A('var2') (it corresponds to A = ...,[1 2,3 4]);
  CreateListVarFrom(3, 3, "d", &m_var2, &n_var2, &l_list_var2, &l_var2);
  
  // We return only the mlist which has been created at position 3
  LhsVar(1) = 3;
  
  return 0;
}
