NAME

PXFPAUSE - Suspends process execution until signal

SYNOPSIS

INTEGER ierror
CALL PXFPAUSE(ierror)

STANDARDS

IEEE Std 1003.9-1992 standard interface for FORTRAN 77

DESCRIPTION

The PXFPAUSE subroutine uses the pause system call to suspend the calling process until it receives a signal. The signal must be one that is not currently set to be ignored by the calling process.

All arguments must be of default kind unless documented otherwise. Default kind is KIND=4 for integer, real, complex, and logical arguments.

The following argument is valid for this routine:

ierror

A default integer output variable that contains nonzero if PXFPAUSE returned. This subroutine never returns with a zero or successful status.

NOTES

Replace any Fortran reference to pause() with a subroutine call to PXFPAUSE.
