*class++
*  Name:
*     FluxFrame

*  Purpose:
*     Measured flux description.

*  Constructor Function:
c     astFluxFrame
f     AST_FLUXFRAME

*  Description:
*     A FluxFrame is a specialised form of one-dimensional Frame which
*     represents various systems used to represent the signal level in an
*     observation. The particular coordinate system to be used is specified
*     by setting the FluxFrame's System attribute qualified, as necessary, by
*     other attributes such as the units, etc (see the description of the
*     System attribute for details).
*
*     All flux values are assumed to be measured at the same frequency or
*     wavelength (as given by the SpecVal attribute). Thus this class is
*     more appropriate for use with images rather than spectra.

*  Inheritance:
*     The FluxFrame class inherits from the Frame class.

*  Attributes:
*     In addition to those attributes common to all Frames, every
*     FluxFrame also has the following attributes:
*
*     - SpecVal: The spectral position at which the flux values are measured.

*  Functions:
c     The FluxFrame class does not define any new functions beyond those
f     The FluxFrame class does not define any new routines beyond those
*     which are applicable to all Frames.

*  History:
*     6-DEC-2004 (DSB):
*        Original version.
*     14-DEC-2004 (DSB):
*        Added AST__SBRIGHT and AST__SBRIGHTW systems.
*     7-DEC-2005 (DSB):
*        Free memory allocated by calls to astReadString.
*     14-FEB-2006 (DSB):
*        Override astGetObjSize.
*     31-JAN-2007 (DSB):
*        Modified so that a FluxFrame can be used as a template to find a
*        FluxFrame contained within a CmpFrame. This involves changes in
*        Match and the removal of the local versions of SetMaxAxes and
*        SetMinAxes.
*     3-SEP-2007 (DSB):
*        In SubFrame, since AlignSystem is extended by the FluxFrame class
*        it needs to be cleared before invoking the parent SubFrame
*        method in cases where the result Frame is not a FluxFrame.
*     2-OCT-2007 (DSB):
*        In Overlay, clear AlignSystem as well as System before calling
*        the parent overlay method.
*     29-APR-2011 (DSB):
*        Prevent astFindFrame from matching a subclass template against a
*        superclass target.

*  Class Membership:

*  Description:
*     This function takes two FluxFrames and generates a Mapping that
*     converts between them, taking account of differences in their
*     coordinate systems, reference frequency, etc.
*
*     In order to cut down the number of transformations to be considered,
*     the scheme works by first converting from the target frame to an
*     "alignment" Frame, using the attributes of the target to define the
*     transformation. A transformation is then found from the alignment
*     frame to the required result Frame,  using the attributes of the
*     result to define the transformation. The alignment Frame is
*     described by the supplied parameter "align_sys".

*  Parameters:
*     target
*        Pointer to the first FluxFrame.
*     result
*        Pointer to the second FluxFrame.
*     align_sys
*        The flux system in which to align the two FluxFrames.
*     map
*        Pointer to a location which is to receive a pointer to the
*        returned Mapping. The forward transformation of this Mapping
*        will convert from "target" coordinates to "result"
*        coordinates, and the inverse transformation will convert in
*        the opposite direction (all coordinate values in radians).
*     status
*        Pointer to the inherited status variable.

*  Returned Value:
*     Non-zero if the Mapping could be generated, or zero if the two
*     FluxFrames are sufficiently un-related that no meaningful Mapping
*     can be produced (in which case a NULL Mapping pointer will be
*     returned).

*  Notes:
*     A value of zero is returned if this function is invoked with the
*     global error status set or if it should fail for any reason.

/*
*  Name:
*     Match

*  Purpose:
*     Determine if conversion is possible between two coordinate systems.

*  Type:
*     Private function.

*  Synopsis:
*     #include "fluxframe.h"
*     int Match( AstFrame *template, AstFrame *target, int matchsub,
*                int **template_axes, int **target_axes,
*                AstMapping **map, AstFrame **result, int *status )

*  Class Membership:
*     FluxFrame member function (over-rides the protected astMatch method
*     inherited from the Frame class).

*  Description:
*     This function matches a "template" FluxFrame to a "target" Frame and
*     determines whether it is possible to convert coordinates between them.
*     If it is, a mapping that performs the transformation is returned along
*     with a new Frame that describes the coordinate system that results when
*     this mapping is applied to the "target" coordinate system. In addition,
*     information is returned to allow the axes in this "result" Frame to be
*     associated with the corresponding axes in the "target" and "template"
*     Frames from which they are derived.

*  Parameters:
*     template
*        Pointer to the template FluxFrame. This describes the coordinate
*        system (or set of possible coordinate systems) into which we wish to
*        convert our coordinates.
*     target
*        Pointer to the target Frame. This describes the coordinate system in
*        which we already have coordinates.
*     matchsub
*        If zero then a match only occurs if the template is of the same
*        class as the target, or of a more specialised class. If non-zero
*        then a match can occur even if this is not the case.
*     template_axes
*        Address of a location where a pointer to int will be returned if the
*        requested coordinate conversion is possible. This pointer will point
*        at a dynamically allocated array of integers with one element for each
*        axis of the "result" Frame (see below). It must be freed by the caller
*        (using astFree) when no longer required.
*
*        For each axis in the result Frame, the corresponding element of this
*        array will return the index of the template FluxFrame axis from
*        which it is derived. If it is not derived from any template
*        FluxFrame axis, a value of -1 will be returned instead.
*     target_axes
*        Address of a location where a pointer to int will be returned if the
*        requested coordinate conversion is possible. This pointer will point
*        at a dynamically allocated array of integers with one element for each
*        axis of the "result" Frame (see below). It must be freed by the caller
*        (using astFree) when no longer required.
*
*        For each axis in the result Frame, the corresponding element of this
*        array will return the index of the target Frame axis from which it
*        is derived. If it is not derived from any target Frame axis, a value
*        of -1 will be returned instead.
*     map
*        Address of a location where a pointer to a new Mapping will be
*        returned if the requested coordinate conversion is possible. If
*        returned, the forward transformation of this Mapping may be used to
*        convert coordinates between the "target" Frame and the "result"
*        Frame (see below) and the inverse transformation will convert in the
*        opposite direction.
*     result
*        Address of a location where a pointer to a new Frame will be returned
*        if the requested coordinate conversion is possible. If returned, this
*        Frame describes the coordinate system that results from applying the
*        returned Mapping (above) to the "target" coordinate system. In
*        general, this Frame will combine attributes from (and will therefore
*        be more specific than) both the target and the template Frames. In
*        particular, when the template allows the possibility of transformaing
*        to any one of a set of alternative coordinate systems, the "result"
*        Frame will indicate which of the alternatives was used.
*     status
*        Pointer to the inherited status variable.

*  Returned Value:
*     A non-zero value is returned if the requested coordinate conversion is
*     possible. Otherwise zero is returned (this will not in itself result in
*     an error condition).

*  Notes:
*     -  A value of zero will be returned if this function is invoked with the
*     global error status set, or if it should fail for any reason.

*  Implementation Notes:
*     This implementation addresses the matching of a FluxFrame class
*     object to any other class of Frame. A FluxFrame will match any class
*     of FluxFrame (i.e. possibly from a derived class) but will not match
*     a less specialised class of Frame.

*  Class Membership:
*     FluxFrame member function (over-rides the protected astOverlay method
*     inherited from the Frame class).

*  Description:
*     This function overlays attributes of a FluxFrame (the "template") on to
*     another Frame, so as to over-ride selected attributes of that second
*     Frame. Normally only those attributes which have been specifically set
*     in the template will be transferred. This implements a form of
*     defaulting, in which a Frame acquires attributes from the template, but
*     retains its original attributes (as the default) if new values have not
*     previously been explicitly set in the template.
*
*     Note that if the result Frame is a FluxFrame and a change of flux
*     coordinate system occurs as a result of overlaying its System
*     attribute, then some of its original attribute values may no
*     longer be appropriate (e.g. the Title, or attributes describing
*     its axes). In this case, these will be cleared before overlaying
*     any new values.

*  Parameters:
*     template
*        Pointer to the template FluxFrame, for which values should have been
*        explicitly set for any attribute which is to be transferred.
*     template_axes
*        Pointer to an array of int, with one element for each axis of the
*        "result" Frame (see below). For each axis in the result frame, the
*        corresponding element of this array should contain the (zero-based)
*        index of the template axis to which it corresponds. This array is used
*        to establish from which template axis any axis-dependent attributes
*        should be obtained.
*
*        If any axis in the result Frame is not associated with a template
*        axis, the corresponding element of this array should be set to -1.
*
*        If a NULL pointer is supplied, the template and result axis
*        indices are assumed to be identical.
*     result
*        Pointer to the Frame which is to receive the new attribute values.
*     status
*        Pointer to the inherited status variable.

*  Returned Value:
*     void

*  Notes:
*     -  In general, if the result Frame is not from the same class as the
*     template FluxFrame, or from a class derived from it, then attributes may
*     exist in the template FluxFrame which do not exist in the result Frame.
*     In this case, these attributes will not be transferred.

*     int SubFrame( AstFrame *target, AstFrame *template,
*                   int result_naxes, const int *target_axes,

*                   AstFrame **result, int *status )

*  Class Membership:
*     FluxFrame member function (over-rides the protected astSubFrame
*     method inherited from the Frame class).

*  Description:
*     This function selects a requested sub-set (or super-set) of the axes
*     from a "target" FluxFrame and creates a new Frame with copies of
*     the selected axes assembled in the requested order. It then
*     optionally overlays the attributes of a "template" Frame on to the
*     result. It returns both the resulting Frame and a Mapping that
*     describes how to convert between the coordinate systems described by
*     the target and result Frames. If necessary, this Mapping takes
*     account of any differences in the Frames' attributes due to the
*     influence of the template.

*  Parameters:
*     target
*        Pointer to the target FluxFrame, from which axes are to be
*        selected.
*     template
*        Pointer to the template Frame, from which new attributes for the
*        result Frame are to be obtained. Optionally, this may be NULL, in
*        which case no overlaying of template attributes will be performed.
*     result_naxes
*        Number of axes to be selected from the target Frame. This number may
*        be greater than or less than the number of axes in this Frame (or
*        equal).
*     target_axes
*        Pointer to an array of int with result_naxes elements, giving a list
*        of the (zero-based) axis indices of the axes to be selected from the
*        target FluxFrame. The order in which these are given determines
*        the order in which the axes appear in the result Frame. If any of the
*        values in this array is set to -1, the corresponding result axis will
*        not be derived from the target Frame, but will be assigned default
*        attributes instead.
*     template_axes
*        Pointer to an array of int with result_naxes elements. This should
*        contain a list of the template axes (given as zero-based axis indices)
*        with which the axes of the result Frame are to be associated. This
*        array determines which axes are used when overlaying axis-dependent
*        attributes of the template on to the result. If any element of this
*        array is set to -1, the corresponding result axis will not receive any
*        template attributes.
*
*        If the template argument is given as NULL, this array is not used and
*        a NULL pointer may also be supplied here.
*     map
*        Address of a location to receive a pointer to the returned Mapping.
*        The forward transformation of this Mapping will describe how to
*        convert coordinates from the coordinate system described by the target
*        FluxFrame to that described by the result Frame. The inverse
*        transformation will convert in the opposite direction.
*     result
*        Address of a location to receive a pointer to the result Frame.
*     status
*        Pointer to the inherited status variable.

*  Returned Value:
*     A non-zero value is returned if coordinate conversion is possible
*     between the target and the result Frame. Otherwise zero is returned and
*     *map and *result are returned as NULL (but this will not in itself
*     result in an error condition). In general, coordinate conversion should
*     always be possible if no template Frame is supplied but may not always
*     be possible otherwise.

*  Notes:
*     -  A value of zero will be returned if this function is invoked with the
*     global error status set, or if it should fail for any reason.

*  Implementation Notes:
*     -  This implementation addresses the selection of axes from a
*     FluxFrame object. This results in another object of the same class
*     only if the single FluxFrame axis is selected exactly once.
*     Otherwise, the result is a Frame class object which inherits the
*     FluxFrame's axis information (if appropriate) but none of the other
*     properties of a FluxFrame.
*     -  In the event that a FluxFrame results, the returned Mapping will
*     take proper account of the relationship between the target and result
*     coordinate systems.
*     -  In the event that a Frame class object results, the returned Mapping
*     will only represent a selection/permutation of axes.

*  Implementation Deficiencies:
*     -  Any axis selection is currently permitted. Probably this should be
*     restricted so that each axis can only be selected once. The
*     astValidateAxisSelection method will do this but currently there are bugs
*     in the CmpFrame class that cause axis selections which will not pass this
*     test. Install the validation when these are fixed.

*        The spectral value to which the flux values refer, given in the

*        If the "options" string contains "%" format specifiers, then an

*     "vtab" parameter.

*  Parameters:
*     mem
*        A pointer to the memory in which the FluxFrame is to be
*	created. This must be of sufficient size to accommodate the
*	FluxFrame data (sizeof(FluxFrame)) plus any data used by
*	the derived class. If a value of NULL is given, this function
*	will allocate the memory itself using the "size" parameter to
*	determine its size.
*     size
*        The amount of memory used by the FluxFrame (plus derived
*	class data). This will be used to allocate memory if a value of
*	NULL is given for the "mem" parameter. This value is also stored
*	in the FluxFrame structure, so a valid value must be supplied
*	even if not required for allocating memory.
*     init
*        A logical flag indicating if the FluxFrame's virtual function
*	table is to be initialised. If this value is non-zero, the
*	virtual function table will be initialised by this function.
*     vtab
*        Pointer to the start of the virtual function table to be
*	associated with the new FluxFrame.
*     name
*        Pointer to a constant null-terminated character string which

*	(it is this pointer value that will subsequently be returned by
*	the astGetClass method).
*     specval
*        The spectral value to which the flux values refer, given in the
*        spectral coordinate system specified by "specfrm". The value
*        supplied for the "specval" parameter becomes the default value for
*        the SpecVal attribute. May be AST__BAD.

*++
*  Name:
c     astFluxFrame
f     AST_FLUXFRAME

*  Purpose:
*     Create a FluxFrame.

*  Type:
*     Public function.

*  Synopsis:
c     #include "fluxframe.h"
c     AstFluxFrame *astFluxFrame( double specval, AstSpecFrame *specfrm,
c                                 const char *options, ... )
f     RESULT = AST_FLUXFRAME( SPECVAL, SPECFRM, OPTIONS, STATUS )

*  Class Membership:
*     FluxFrame constructor.

*  Description:
*     This function creates a new FluxFrame and optionally initialises
*     its attributes.
*
*     A FluxFrame is a specialised form of one-dimensional Frame which
*     represents various systems used to represent the signal level in an
*     observation. The particular coordinate system to be used is specified
*     by setting the FluxFrame's System attribute qualified, as necessary, by
*     other attributes such as the units, etc (see the description of the
*     System attribute for details).
*
*     All flux values are assumed to be measured at the same frequency or
*     wavelength (as given by the SpecVal attribute). Thus this class is
*     more appropriate for use with images rather than spectra.

*  Parameters:
c     specval
f     SPECVAL = DOUBLE PRECISION (Given)
*        The spectral value to which the flux values refer, given in the
*        spectral coordinate system specified by
c        "specfrm". The value supplied for the "specval"
f        SPECFRM. The value supplied for the SPECVAL
*        parameter becomes the default value for the SpecVal attribute.
*        A value of AST__BAD may be supplied if the spectral position is
*        unknown, but this may result in it not being possible for the
c        astConvert
f        AST_CONVERT
*        function to determine a Mapping between the new FluxFrame and
*        some other FluxFrame.
c     specfrm
f     SPECFRM = INTEGER (Given)
*        A pointer to a SpecFrame describing the spectral coordinate system
*        in which the
c        "specval"
f        SPECVAL
*        parameter is given. A deep copy of this object is taken, so any
*        subsequent changes to the SpecFrame using the supplied pointer will
*        have no effect on the new FluxFrame.
c        A NULL pointer can be supplied if AST__BAD is supplied for "specval".
f        AST__NULL can be supplied if AST__BAD is supplied for SPECVAL.
c     options
f     OPTIONS = CHARACTER * ( * ) (Given)
c        Pointer to a null-terminated string containing an optional
c        comma-separated list of attribute assignments to be used for
c        initialising the new FluxFrame. The syntax used is identical to
c        that for the astSet function and may include "printf" format
c        specifiers identified by "%" symbols in the normal way.
c        If no initialisation is required, a zero-length string may be
c        supplied.
f        A character string containing an optional comma-separated
f        list of attribute assignments to be used for initialising the
f        new FluxFrame. The syntax used is identical to that for the
f        AST_SET routine. If no initialisation is required, a blank
f        value may be supplied.
c     ...
c        If the "options" string contains "%" format specifiers, then
c        an optional list of additional arguments may follow it in
c        order to supply values to be substituted for these
c        specifiers. The rules for supplying these are identical to
c        those for the astSet function (and for the C "printf"
c        function).
f     STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
f        The global status.

*  Returned Value:
c     astFluxFrame()
f     AST_FLUXFRAME = INTEGER
*        A pointer to the new FluxFrame.

*  Notes:
*     - When conversion between two FluxFrames is requested (as when
c     supplying FluxFrames to astConvert),
f     supplying FluxFrames AST_CONVERT),
*     account will be taken of the nature of the flux coordinate systems
*     they represent, together with any qualifying attribute values, including
*     the AlignSystem attribute. The results will therefore fully reflect the
*     relationship between positions measured in the two systems. In addition,
*     any difference in the Unit attributes of the two systems will also be
*     taken into account.
*     - A null Object pointer (AST__NULL) will be returned if this
c     function is invoked with the AST error status set, or if it
f     function is invoked with STATUS set to an error value, or if it
*     should fail for any reason.
*--

*  Implementation Notes:
*     - This function implements the external (public) interface to
*     the astFluxFrame constructor function. It returns an ID value
*     (instead of a true C pointer) to external users, and must be
*     provided because astFluxFrame_ has a variable argument list which
*     cannot be encapsulated in a macro (where this conversion would
*     otherwise occur).
*     - The variable argument list also prevents this function from
*     invoking astFluxFrame_ directly, so it must be a
*     re-implementation of it in all respects, except for the final
*     conversion of the result to an ID value.
