/*
* C Implementation: get_set
*
* Description:
* Example on how to get and set values through key names
* from a grib_handle created by an message in a file.
* All angles are espressed in Degrees though in the
* message can be in millidegrees or microdegrees depending
* on the grib edition number.
* Only angle values in Degrees should be setted and getted
* by the user. Expert users can access the hard coded values
* in the grib message omitting the "InDegrees" suffix, but
* it's worth to notice that units are those appropriate for
* the message edition.
* WARNING: Some variables are dependent.
* For example numberOfPointsAlongAMeridian depends on:
* - jDirectionIncrementInDegrees
* - latitudeOfFirstGridPointInDegrees
* - latitudeOfLastGridPointInDegrees.
* Thus only these last three must be set and the first will
* be available. Inversely if numberOfPointsAlongAMeridian
* is set then jDirectionIncrementInDegrees will be
* automatically calculated and modified in the grib
* message.
* jDirectionIncrementInDegrees, latitudeOfFirstGridPointInDegrees,
* latitudeOfLastGridPointInDegrees are required variables and
* numberOfPointsAlongAMeridian is optional. All the required
* variables must be set when creating a new handle, optional
* ones can be set or not. If an optional variable is set other
* variables are automatically set. Only required variables
* should be set by a user. Only expert users should access
* optional variables and only in particulare cases.
* A list of all the available required keys for a message
* can be obtained using the command line tool grib_dump
* on the message file, or with the keys_iterator function
* (see example keys_iterator.c).
