PXFCHOWN(3F)					       Last changed: 1-6-98

NAME
     PXFCHOWN - Changes the owner and group of a file

SYNOPSIS
     CHARACTER*n path
     INTEGER ilen, iowner, igroup, ierror
     CALL PXFCHOWN(path, ilen, iowner, igroup, ierror)

IMPLEMENTATION
     UNICOS, UNICOS/mk, and IRIX systems

STANDARDS
     IEEE standard interface for FORTRAN 77

DESCRIPTION
     On IRIX systems, this routine is in libfortran.so which is linked by
     default when compiling programs with the MIPSpro 7 Fortran 90 compiler
     or when compiling programs with the -craylibs option to the MIPSpro
     7.2 F77 compiler.

     The PXFCHOWN subroutine uses the chown(2) function to change the owner
     and group of a file.

     The value of iowner and igroup indicates the new values.

     When using the CF90 compiler or MIPSpro 7 Fortran 90 compiler on
     UNICOS, UNICOS/mk, or IRIX systems, all arguments must be of default
     kind unless documented otherwise.	On UNICOS and UNICOS/mk, default
     kind is KIND=8 for integer, real, complex, and logical arguments; on
     IRIX, the default kind is KIND=4.

     The following is a list of valid arguments for this routine:

     path      Input character variable or array element containing the
	       name of a file.

     ilen      Input integer variable containing the length of path in
	       characters.  If ilen is zero, all trailing blanks are
	       removed before calling chown().

     iowner    Input integer variable containing the integer value for the
	       owner.

     igroup    Input integer variable containing the integer value for the
	       group.

     ierror    Output integer variable that contains zero if the group and
	       owner of the file were changed or nonzero if PXFCHOWN did
	       not change the group and owner.

     In addition to the errors returned by the chown(2) system call,
     PXFCHOWN may return the following errors:

     EINVAL    If ilen is less than 0 or ilen is greater than LEN(path).

     ENOMEM    If PXFCHOWN is unable to obtain memory to copy path.

EXAMPLES
	  subroutine test (iowner,igroup)
	  character*(12) path
	  integer ilen, iowner, igroup, ierr
	  path = 'testfile'
	  ilen = 0
	  call pxfchown(path,ilen,iowner,igroup,ierr)
	  if (ierr.ne.0) then
	      print *,'FAIL: error from pxfchown = ',ierr
	  else
	      print *,'PASS: No error from pxfchown = '
	  endif
	  end
