Generation of a Master Index File

This section is not of interest for the general user. There is no reason to do this outside the XMM-Newton Science Operations Centre.

By setting the parameter masterindex to yes cifbuild can be instructed to generate a MIF.

In this mode of operations the command line value of fullpath is ignored.

All CCF constituents found in the directories specified via ccfpath (or SAS_CCFPATH) are listed in the output calibration index set (calindexset).
