AHELP for CIAO 3.4 calSetFilter Context: caldb

Synopsis

Sets the filter to be used in a CALDB query.

Syntax

calSetFilter( Caldb_Type cal, String_Type name )

Description

This routine sets the name of the filter to be used when calFindFile() is next called. A value of "-" means that this field is not relevant for the query (i.e. that no filter was used).

This field corresponds to the filter parameter of the quizcaldb tool. It should be set to "-" for all queries of the Chandra calibration database.

Example

chips> cal = calCreateInfo
chips> calSetFilter( cal, "-" )

Bugs

See the bugs page for the caldb library on the CIAO website for an up-to-date listing of known bugs.
