   VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
   --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
   iorder     I   Order vector to be used to re-order array.
   ndim       I   Dimension of array.
   arrlen     I   String length.
   array     I-O  Array to be re-ordered.

Detailed_Input

   iorder      is the order vector to be used to re-order the input
               array. The first element of iorder is the index of
               the first item of the re-ordered array, and so on.

               Note that the order imposed by reordc_c is not the
               same order that would be imposed by a sorting
               routine. In general, the order vector will have
               been created (by one of the order routines) for
               a related array, as illustrated in the example below.

               The elements of iorder range from zero to ndim-1.

   ndim        is the number of elements in the input array.

   arrlen      is the declared length of the strings in the input
               string array, including null terminators. The input
               array should be declared with dimension

                  [ndim][arrlen]

   array       on input, is an array containing some number of
               elements in unspecified order.

Detailed_Output

   array       on output, is the same array, with the elements
               re-ordered as specified by iorder.

Parameters

   None.

Exceptions

   1)  If ndim < 2, this routine executes a no-op. This case is
       not an error.

   2)  If the `array' input array pointer is null, the error
       SPICE(NULLPOINTER) is signaled.

   3)  If the `array' input array strings have length less than two
       characters, the error SPICE(STRINGTOOSHORT) is signaled.

   4)  If memory cannot be allocated to create the temporary variable
       required for the execution of the underlying Fortran routine,
       the error SPICE(MALLOCFAILED) is signaled.

Files

   None.

Particulars

   After re-ordering, the element at index iorder[0] of the input array is
   the first element of the output array, the element at index iorder[1] of
   the input array is the second element of the output array, and so on.

   The order vector used by reordc_c is typically created for
   a related array by one of the order*_c routines, as shown in
   the example below.

Examples

   The numerical results shown for this example may differ across
   platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as
   input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine
   specific arithmetic implementation.

   1) Sort four related arrays containing the names, masses,
      integer ID codes, and flags indicating whether they have
      a ring system, for a group of planets.

         SpiceInt             iorder [NDIM];

         /.
         Set the arrays containing the names, masses (given as
         ratios to of Solar GM to barycenter GM), integer ID
         codes, and flags indicating whether they have a ring
         system.

         Sort the object arrays by name.

         orderc_c ( STRLEN, names, NDIM,   iorder );

         reordc_c ( iorder, NDIM,  STRLEN, names  );
         reordd_c ( iorder, NDIM,  masses         );
         reordi_c ( iorder, NDIM,  codes          );
         reordl_c ( iorder, NDIM,  rings          );

         /.
         Output the resulting table.
         ./
         printf( " Planet   Mass(GMS/GM)  ID Code  Rings?\n" );
         printf( "-------  -------------  -------  ------\n" );

         for ( i = 0; i < NDIM; i++ )
         {

            printf( "%-7s %14.3f %8d %4d\n",
                    names[i], masses[i], codes[i], rings[i] );

         }

         return ( 0 );
      }

Version

   -CSPICE Version 1.1.0, 27-AUG-2021 (NJB) (JDR)

       Bug fix: complete re-write. Previous version did not perform stated
       function.

       Changed input argument name "lenvals" to "arrlen" for consistency
       with other routines.

       Edited the header to comply with NAIF standard.
       Added complete code example.
