NAME

       mst_print - Printing of MSTrace information.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libmseed.h>

       void   mst_printtracelist ( MSTraceGroup *mstg, flag timeformat,
                                   flag details, flag gaps );

       void   mst_printsynclist ( MSTraceGroup *mstg, char *dccid,
                                  flag subsecond );

       void   mst_printgaplist ( MSTraceGroup *mstg, flag timeformat,
                                 double *mingap, double *maxgap );

DESCRIPTION

       mst_printtracelist  prints  a  formatted  list of the MSTrace segments in the given MSTraceGroup.  If the
       details flag is greater than 0 the sample rate and sample count are printed for each trace.  If the  gaps
       flag is greater than zero the time gap from the previous MSTrace (if the source name matches) is printed.
       All output is printed using ms_log(3) at level 0.

       mst_printsynclist prints a formatted list of the MSTrace segments in the given  MSTraceGroup  similar  to
       mst_printtracelist but the format is a SYNC listing.  If a dccid string is supplied it will be used along
       with the current system date to create the SYNC header line.  If the subsecond flag  is  true  (non-zero)
       the  time  values in the SYNC lines will include full libmseed precision, otherwise they will be truncted
       to integer second values.

       mst_printgaplist prints a formatted list of the gaps between MSTrace segments in the given  MSTraceGroup.
       If  mingap  or  maxgap  is  not  NULL their values will be enforced and only gaps/overlaps matching their
       implied criteria will be printed.

       The timeformat argument for both mst_printtracelist and  mst_printgaplist  controls  the  format  of  the
       resulting time strings.  Possible formats are:

       0 : SEED time format (2005,146,00:00:00.000000)
       1 : ISO time format (2005-05-26T00:00:00.000000)
       2 : Epoch time, seconds since the epoch (1117065600.00000000)

       Both  mst_printtracelist  and  mst_printgaplist  represent  time overlaps as negative gaps.  For a single
       sample overlap the value of the gap is calculated as zero, this will be printed as "-0" or negative  zero
       to indicate an overlap.

GAP/OVERLAP RULES

       The  existence  of  gaps  and  overlaps  is  implicit  in  the  structure of the MSTraceGroup, no special
       processing is done to detect gaps and overlaps in these routines.

       The value of a gap is calculated as the difference between the time of the last sample before the gap and
       the time of the first sample after the gap.  No sample 'coverage' time is included.

       The  value of an overlap is calculated as the time between two samples which represent the maximum amount
       of timeseries overlap.

       When the MSTraces in the MSTraceGroup include a small segment that is completely  overlapped  by  another
       larger  segment  the  gap/overlap value will not be correct for either the smaller segment or the segment
       following it.
