pad_look_stream::attach_raw_data
Attach a set of raw data arrays to a pad stream
Usage:
strid->attach_raw_data, rate, time_ptr, field_ptr, $
tform_ptr, ttime_ptr, time_ref_ptr, field_ref_ptr, $
tform_ref_ptr
arguments:
rate float/ptr Either the raw data array or a
pointer to it.
time_ptr pointer A pointer to the time array (it can
optionally be the actual time array,
but this is memory hungry, and will
prevent plotting unless averaging is
used.)
field_ptr pointer A pointer to the field array (it can
optionally be the actual field array,
but this is memory hungry).
tform_ptr pointer A pointer to the transform array (can
be the actual array but this uses more
memory).
ttime_ptr pointer A pointer to the transform times.
time_ref_ptr pointer A pointer to the refcount for the time
array. (Ignored if the actual time
array is passed).
field_ref_ptr pointer A pointer to the refcount for the field
array. (Ignored if the actual field
array is passed).
tform_ref_ptr pointer A pointer to the refcount for the
transform and its times
Notes:
It is the responsibility of the calling routine (usually a
pad_dataset processing method) to sort out the pointers for the
time array and hand a pointer with the correct refcount to the
method.
