       VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
       --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
       cname      I   Name of the object to find a frame for.
       frnlen     I   Maximum length available for frame name.
       frcode     O   The ID code of the frame associated with cname.
       frname     O   The name of the frame with ID frcode.
       found      O   SPICETRUE if the requested information is available.
#### Detailed_Input
       cname       is the name for object for which there is a
                   preferred reference frame.

       frnlen      is the amount of space available, counting the
                   space required for the terminating null character,
                   in the output string `frname'. Normally `frnlen' is
                   the declared length of `frname'.
#### Detailed_Output
       frcode      is the frame ID code to associate with a the object
                   specified by `cname'.

       frname      is the name of the frame that should be associated
                   with the object specified by `cname'. `frname' should be
                   declared as SpiceChar[33] to ensure that it can
                   contain the full name of the frame. If `frname' does
                   not have enough room to hold the full name of the
                   frame, the name will be truncated on the right.

       found       is SPICETRUE if the appropriate frame ID code and frame
                   name can be determined. Otherwise `found' is returned
                   with the value SPICEFALSE.
#### Parameters
       None.
#### Exceptions
       1)  If `frname' does not have enough room to contain the frame name,
           the name will be truncated on the right. (Declaring `frname' to
           be SpiceChar[33] will ensure that the name will not be truncated).

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

       3)  If the `cname' input string has zero length, the error
           SPICE(EMPTYSTRING) is signaled.

       4)  If the `frname' output string pointer is null, the error
           SPICE(NULLPOINTER) is signaled.

       5)  If the `frname' output string has length less than two
           characters, the error SPICE(STRINGTOOSHORT) is signaled, since
           the output string is too short to contain one character of
           output data plus a null terminator.
#### Files
       None.
#### Particulars
       This routine allows the caller to determine the frame that should
       be associated with a particular object. For example, if you
       need the frame to associate with the Io, you can call cnmfrm_c
       to determine the frame name and id-code for the bodyfixed frame
       of Io.

       The preferred frame to use with an object is specified via one
       of the kernel pool variables:

           OBJECT_<cname>_FRAME

       where <cname> is the non-blank portion of the string CNAME.

       For those PCK objects that have "built-in" frame names this
       routine returns the corresponding "IAU" frame and frame ID code.
#### 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) Retrieve the ID code and name of the preferred frame
          associated with a set of body names.

          Example code begins here.

          /.
             Program cnmfrm_ex1
          ./
          #include <stdio.h>
          #include "SpiceUsr.h"

          int main( )
          {
             /.
             Local constants.
             ./
             #define FRNMLN          33

             /.
             Local variables.
             ./
             SpiceBoolean            found;

             SpiceChar               frname [ FRNMLN ];
             SpiceInt                frcode;

             SpiceInt                i;

             /.
             Assign an array of body names. Not all the listed names
             have a frame associated to them.
             ./
             SpiceChar             * body[] = { "IO",   "EARTH",
                                                "MOON", "HALO_DELTA" };

             /.
             Loop over the `body' array, call cnmfrm_c for each
             element of `body'.
             ./
             printf( "   Body     Frame ID  Frame name\n" );
             printf( "----------  --------  ----------\n" );

             for (i = 0; i < 4; i++ )
             {
                cnmfrm_c ( body[i], FRNMLN, &frcode, frname, &found );

                if ( found )
                {
                   printf( "%10s %9d  %s\n", body[i], (int)frcode, frname );
                }
                else
                {
                   printf( "%10s  No frame associated with body\n", body[i] );
                }

             }

             return ( 0 );
          }

          When this program was executed on a Mac/Intel/cc/64-bit
          platform, the output was:

             Body     Frame ID  Frame name
          ----------  --------  ----------
                  IO     10023  IAU_IO
               EARTH     10013  IAU_EARTH
                MOON     10020  IAU_MOON
          HALO_DELTA  No frame associated with body

#### Version
       -CSPICE Version 1.1.0, 02-AUG-2021 (JDR)

           Changed the input argument name "lenout" to "frnlen" for
           consistency with other routines.

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

           Updated -Detailed_Output and -Exceptions to indicate the
           required minimum length for the output frame character
           string to not be truncated.
