checkloconorder.3alc - Man Page
checks the consistency of a list of logical connectors
Synopsis
#include "mlo.h" void checkloconorder(connectors) locon_list ∗connectors;
Parameters
- connectors
Pointer to the head of the connector list that is to be sorted
Description
checkloconorder checks the list of logical connectors pointed to by ∗connectors for conformity towards mbk(1) consistency rules. Checks are done to warranty :
- order
the functions checks that vectorized connectors are ordered and evolve monotonically, with a step of 1.
- name unicity
Vector radicals may not appear as single entity.
- name validity
No space should appear in the name, but a single one followed by a number in a vector.
Errors
"∗∗∗ mbk error ∗∗∗ radical
name already used in a connector"
The name is already used in a connector, either vectorized or not, and therefore cannot be used once more. This ensures that f and f 3 will not be used simultaneously.
"∗∗∗ mbk error ∗∗∗ the radical
name has a spurious vectorized value"
The name is seen as a vector in mbk(1), but its index is not a number or some text follows that number.
"∗∗∗ mbk error ∗∗∗ the radical
name is not vectorized properly"
The name is seen as a vector in mbk(1), but its index changes in such a way that it is not monotonically increasing or decreasing with a step of 1.
Example
#include "mlo.h" void savewithcheck(figname) char ∗figname; { lofig_list ∗figure = getlocon(figname, 'A'); checkloconorder(figure->LOCON); savelofig(figure); }
