This function creates a new point structure. The point is created as a Vgroup within the HDF file with the name pointname and class POINT.
Examples
In this example, we create a new point structure, ExamplePoint, in the previously created file, PointFile.hdf:
pointID = EOS_PT_CREATE(fid, "ExamplePoint")
The point structure is then referenced by subsequent routines using the handle, pointID.
Syntax
Result = EOS_PT_CREATE(fid, pointname)
Return Value
Returns the point handle (pointID) if successful and FAIL (–1) otherwise.
Arguments
fid
Point file id (long) returned by EOS_PT_OPEN.
pointname
Name of point (string) to be created.
