Detailed Description

Interface to SUBROUTINEs for reading dbf attributes.

The type of the attribute can be either INTEGER, REAL(kind=c_double) (double) or CHARACTER. In case of CHARACTER attributes it is important that the length of the string passed is big enough to contain the attribute. The maximum length for each field can be obtained with the dbfgetfieldinfo function, but it is limited anyway to a maximum of 512 characters. The type of the attribute requested may not coincide with the native type of the field, if possible a conversion will be performed.

Parameters

hshp	TYPE(shpfileobject),INTENT(inout) shapefile object to query
ishape	INTEGER,INTENT(in) the number of shape to query
ifield	INTEGER,INTENT(in) the number of field to query
attr	INTEGER, CHARACTER or REAL(kind=c_double), INTENT(out) the value of the attribute
