Function/Subroutine Documentation

subroutine cnved4	(	dimension(*)	MSGIN,
			LMSGOT,
		dimension(*)	MSGOT
	)

This subroutine reads an input BUFR message encoded using BUFR edition 3 and outputs an equivalent BUFR message encoded using BUFR edition 4.

This subroutine performs the same function as subroutine pkvs01() when the latter is called with S01MNEM = 'BEN' and IVAL = 4, except that the latter subroutine operates on BUFR messages internally within the software, whereas this subroutine operates on a single BUFR message passed in via a memory array.

Parameters

[in]	MSGIN	- integer(*): BUFR message
[in]	LMSGOT	- integer: Dimensioned size (in integers) of MSGOT; used by the subroutine to ensure that it doesn't overflow the MSGOT array
[out]	MSGOT	- integer(*): Copy of MSGIN encoded using BUFR edition 4

Remarks

• MSGIN and MSGOT must be separate arrays.
• BUFR edition 4 messages are usually longer in length than their BUFR edition 3 counterparts, so it's usually a good idea to allow for extra space when allocating MSGOT within the application program.

• 2009-08-12 J. Ator – Allow silent return (instead of bort() return) if MSGIN is already encoded using edition 4
