Polling Input
When writing input routines for user elements and user material models it is recommended to use a polling input model. The basic idea it to use a do while
loop structure that reads your data based on keyword pairs, stores the values in ud(:)
, and then terminates its reading when it encounters a blank line or some other string that you designate as the termination condition for your input. Here is a template that you can follow:
logical pcomp,tinput,errck character type*15,text(2)*15,termination*15 real*8 ud(*),td(10) text(1) = 'start' termination = ' ' ! or for example 'my input end' do while (.not.pcomp(text(1),termination,4)) errck = tinput(text,2,td,9) ! Read two keywords and up to 9 values if (pcomp(text(1),'key1',4)) then if (pcomp(text(2),'key2',4)) then ud(1) = td(1) ud(2) = td(2) elseif (pcomp(text(2),'key3',4)) then ud(3) = td(1) endif elseif (pcomp(text(1),'key4',4)) then if (pcomp(text(2),'key5',4)) then ud(4) = td(1) ud(5) = td(2) ud(6) = td(3) endif endif end do
