The Valid_State_Character procedure returns true iff the character scalar or array variable is in a valid state - that is, iff the variable passes all of the valid state tests.
Calling syntax:
| Logical = Valid_State(C) | or |
| Logical = Valid_State_NP(C) |
Input variable:
| C | A character scalar variable or a pointer to an allocated character array variable. A non-pointered variable may be used with the Valid_State_NP version of the call. |
Output variable:
| Valid_State | True iff the character scalar or array variable is in a valid state. |
The Valid_State_Character code listing contains additional documentation.
