MeteoTools::SetSynopField

int SetSynopField(time_t date);

Return Value

    Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0.
    The return value ist size of the array of BMSD_SYN

Parameters

    date

   
the meteo basis time reference
as type time_t (see CTime)

Remarks

    Like LoadScreenField you must prepare before you get synop data.
    For the use of GetSynopDataSet (
mySynopList) you must call up this routine.
    
Note:
     This initiates the internal data structures for all the next synop data accesses.

Example 

// center point of Screen
// sx = mySreenSize.cx / 2; sy = mySreenSize.cy / 2;
// xoff,yoff,xscale,yscale --> see
DrawSeaData
// You yourself should put hour and date

   int SynArray=SetSynopField(date);
   if(!SynArray) return;

  //GetSynopDataSet if defined as mySynopList
  //SetDetailSympol is a routine of sorce code example DrawTools
 
   for(int z=0; z<mySynopList.GetSize(); z++)
     {
     int X = (int)((double)(((double)mySynopList[z].lon+xoff)/xscale))+sx;
     int Y = (int)((double)(((double)mySynopList[z].lat+yoff)/yscale))+sx;
     SetDetailSympol(pDC,mySynopList[z].data.pflag,
     mySynopList[z].data.prmsl,
     mySynopList[z].data.btcdc,
     mySynopList[z].data.temp,
     mySynopList[z].data.ugrd,
     mySynopList[z].data.vgrd);
     }
