int ndb_cif_read_dic_with_format(CifHandle *cf,
                                 FILE *fp,
                                 CifHandle *ddl,
                                 FILE *fp_ddl,
                                 CifHandle *format);

PURPOSE

ndb_cif_read_dic_with_format reads a dictionary/cif file into the CifHandle data structure specified by ddl from a file pointed to by file descriptor fp. Checks corectness of dictionary/cif file like the ndb_cif_read_dic. Additionaly, saves the format of save frames of dictionary/cif file into the CifHandle dat structure format. All interaction with the data file takes place inside this function. Subsequent access to ddl data is managed by a set of methods that access memory resident data.

RECEIVES

cf	pointer to the CifHandle data structure where the data is loaded
fp	pointer to the file descriptor for the dictionary/cif input file
ddl	pointer to the CifHandle data structure where the ddl file is loaded
fp_ddl	pointer to the file descriptor for the ddl input file
format	pointer to the CifHandle structur where the format is loaded

RETURN VALUE

Returns the number of data blocks in the input file or 0 for failure.
