Working outside the AmesPAHdbIDLSuite object classes

The AmesPAHdbIDLSuite object classes all provide the 'Get'-method that allows extraction of the object's internal data into an anonymous IDL struct.

transitions_s = transitions->Get()

This allows, for example, more control over the presentation of the data.

PLOT,transitions_s.data.frequency,1D5*transitions_s.data.intensity, $
     XTITLE=transitions_s.units.x.str, $
     YTITLE='integrated intensity [cm!U-2!N mol!U-1!N]', $
     PSYM=10

Subsequently this anonymous structure can be manipulated and even be set to the object, which will try altering its internal state to reflect that of the manipulated data.

transitions->Set,transitions_s

In addition, the 'Set'-method accepts keywords to alter its internal state.

transitions->Set,Data=transitions_s.data

Lastly, it is also possible to create new AmesPAHdbIDLSuite-objects initialized with an appropriate anonymous structure or through keywords.

transitions = OBJ_NEW('AmesPAHdbIDLSuite_Transitions', transitions_s)

transitions = OBJ_NEW('AmesPAHdbIDLSuite_Transitions', $
                       Type=transitions_s.type, $
                       Version=transitions_s.version, $
                       PAHdb=pahdb->Pointer(), $
                       Data=transitions_s.data, $
                       Uids=transitions_s.uids, $
                       Model=transitions_s.model, $
                       Units=transitions_s.units)
