function nmsub

(

LUNIT

)

This function returns the total number of data subsets available within the BUFR message that was most recently opened for reading via a call to one of the other message-reading subroutines for a specified Fortran logical unit.

The data subsets themselves do not need to have already been read via previous calls to any of the subset-reading subroutines.

• 1994-01-06 J. Woollen – Original author
• 1998-07-08 J. Woollen – Replaced call to Cray library routine ABORT with call to new internal routine bort()
• 1999-11-18 J. Woollen – The number of BUFR files which can be opened at one time increased from 10 to 32 (necessary in order to process multiple BUFR files under the MPI)
• 2014-12-10 J. Ator – Use modules instead of COMMON blocks
