ms.fillbuffer - Function



Package general
Module ms
Tool ms


Fill the internal buffer with data and flags.


Synopsis
fillbuffer(item, ifraxis)


Arguments

item   data derived item
    Allowed: String
ifraxis   Create interferometer axis if true
    Allowed: Bool
    Default: F


Returns
Bool, True if operation successful



Description
Read the specified data item from the table, including its flags and keep the results in an internal buffer



Example
myms:=ms("3C273XC1.MS");
myms.select([antenna1=3]);
myms.fillbuffer("PHASE",T);

We open the MS for reading, select a subset and then read the DATA, FLAG and FLAG_ROW column, extract the PHASE, reorder the data to add an interferometer axis, and keep the results around in an internal buffer.
