[Jeevan]

Dear all,

I want to get the header name from a data file and include it in the
function.
FOr eg.

program main
character*80 getheader
open (1, file = 'input.doc', access= 'sequential',
& status = 'old')
read(1,'(A)')getheader
close(1)

call function(getheader)

end program main

subroutine function(getheader)

character*80 header

# include "getheader"
...............
.............

end


Now the problem is that it is not acceptimg the getheader
To be noted is that getheader conatins the path of the header
file...say ../inc/read.h

The error that i get is getheader is not a file or directory..

PLZZ can anyone throw light on this!!!!

Whatever language this is, it's not C. Do you have your newsgroups
confused? Or is this some kind of pseudo code?

AFAIK you want some kind of way to determine the name of an #included
header file at run-time, by calling a function in the C program.
Because the preprocessor works even before the compiler, let alone
the actual running, this is by its very nature impossible. You have
to make this a two-pass compile: make one C program to get the header
file name and output C source code, save it as a second C program,
and compile it.

It looks like the problem is that this is *not* C.

Fortran? Not C, in any case. Wrong newsgroup.
