subroutine capit

(

character*(*)

STR

THIS SUBROUTINE CAPITALIZES A STRING OF CHARACTERS.

THIS ENABLES THE USE OF MIXED CASE IN THE UNIT SECTION OF THE ASCII BUFR TABLES. AN EXAMPLE: A PROGRAM WHICH GENERATES AN ASCII BUFR TABLE FROM THE "MASTER TABLE B" MIGHT END UP COPYING SOME UNITS FIELDS IN MIXED OR LOWER CASE. IF THE UNITS ARE 'CODE TABLE' OR 'FLAG TABLE' OR CERTAIN OTHER UNIT DESIGNATIONS, THE TABLE WILL BE PARSED INCORRECTLY, AND THE DATA READ OR INCORRECTLY AS A RESULT. THIS MAKES SURE ALL UNIT DESIGNATIONS ARE SEEN BY THE PARSER IN UPPER CASE TO AVOID THESE TYPES OF PROBLEMS.
