This function creates a new UnitMapUnitMap and optionally initialises
its attributes.
A UnitMap is a unit (null) MappingMapping that has no effect on the
coordinates supplied to it. They are simply copied. This can be
useful if a Mapping is required (e.g. to pass to another
function) but you do not want it to have any effect.
Synopsis:
AstUnitMap astUnitMap( int ncoord, const char options, ... )
Parameters:
ncoord
The number of input and output coordinates (these numbers are
necessarily the same).
options
Pointer to a null-terminated string containing an optional
comma-separated list of attribute assignments to be used for
initialising the new UnitMap. The syntax used is identical to
that for the astSetastSet function and may include "printf" format
specifiers identified by "%" symbols in the normal way.
...
If the "options" string contains "%" format specifiers, then
an optional list of additional arguments may follow it in
order to supply values to be substituted for these
specifiers. The rules for supplying these are identical to
those for the astSet function (and for the C "printf"
function).
Returned Value:
astUnitMap()
A pointer to the new UnitMap.
Notes:
A null ObjectObject pointer (AST__NULL) will be returned if this
function is invoked with the AST error status set, or if it
should fail for any reason.
