json_matrix_info Subroutine

private subroutine json_matrix_info(json, p, is_matrix, var_type, n_sets, set_size, name)

Alternate version of json_info that returns matrix information about a json_value.

A json_value is a valid rank 2 matrix if all of the following are true:

  • The var_type is json_array
  • Each child is also a json_array, each of which has the same number of elements
  • Each individual element has the same variable type (integer, logical, etc.)

The idea here is that if it is a valid matrix, it can be interoperable with a Fortran rank 2 array of the same type.

Example

The following example is an array with var_type=json_integer, n_sets=3, and set_size=4

    {
        "matrix": [
            [1,2,3,4],
            [5,6,7,8],
            [9,10,11,12]
        ]
    }

Arguments

Type IntentOptional AttributesName
class(json_core), intent(inout) :: json
type(json_value), pointer:: p

a JSON linked list

logical(kind=LK), intent(out) :: is_matrix

true if it is a valid matrix

integer(kind=IK), intent(out), optional :: var_type

variable type of data in the matrix (if all elements have the same type)

integer(kind=IK), intent(out), optional :: n_sets

number of data sets (i.e., matrix rows if using row-major order)

integer(kind=IK), intent(out), optional :: set_size

size of each data set (i.e., matrix cols if using row-major order)

character(kind=CK,len=:), intent(out), optional allocatable:: name

variable name
