#### Procedure
       dafbbs_c ( DAF, begin backward search )

       void dafbbs_c ( SpiceInt handle )
#### Abstract
       Begin a backward search for arrays in a DAF.
#### Required_Reading
       DAF

#### Brief_I/O
       VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
       --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
       handle     I   Handle of DAF to be searched.
#### Detailed_Input
       handle      is the handle of a DAF on which a backward
                   search is to be conducted.
#### Detailed_Output
       None.
#### Parameters
       None.
#### Exceptions
       1)  If the input handle is invalid, an error is signaled by a
           routine in the call tree of this routine.

       2)  If the summary record of the last record in the DAF file cannot be
           read, the error SPICE(RECORDNOTFOUND) is signaled by a routine in the
           call tree of this routine.
#### Files
       See argument `handle'.
#### Particulars
       The DAF search routines are:

          dafbfs_c       Begin forward search.
          daffna         Find next array.

          dafbbs_c       Begin backward search.
          daffpa_c       Find previous array.

          dafgs_c        Get summary.
          dafgn_c        Get name.
          dafgh_c        Get handle.

          dafcs_c        Continue search.

       The main function of these entry points is to allow the
       contents of any DAF to be examined on an array-by-array
       basis.

       Conceptually, the arrays in a DAF form a doubly linked list,
       which can be searched in either of two directions: forward or
       backward. It is possible to search multiple DAFs simultaneously.

       dafbfs_c (begin forward search) and daffna are used to search the
       arrays in a DAF in forward order. In applications that search a
       single DAF at a time, the normal usage is

          dafbfs_c ( handle );
          daffna_c ( &found );

          while ( found )
          {
             dafgs_c ( sum  );
             dafgn_c ( name );
              .
              .

             daffna_c ( &found );
          }

       dafbbs_c (begin backward search) and daffpa_c are used to search the
       arrays in a DAF in backward order. In applications that search
       a single DAF at a time, the normal usage is

          dafbbs_c ( handle );
          daffpa_c ( &found );

          while ( found )
          {
             dafgs_c ( sum  );
             dafgn_c ( name );
              .
              .

             daffpa_c ( &found );
          }

       In applications that conduct multiple searches simultaneously,
       the above usage must be modified to specify the handle of the
       file to operate on, in any case where the file may not be the
       last one specified by dafbfs_c or dafbbs_c. The routine dafcs_c
       (DAF, continue search) is used for this purpose. Below, we
       give an example of an interleaved search of two files specified
       by the handles handl1 and handl2. The directions of searches
       in different DAFs are independent; here we conduct a forward
       search on one file and a backward search on the other.
       Throughout, we use dafcs to specify which file to operate on,
       before calling daffna_c, daffpa_c, dafgs_c, or dafgn_c.

          dafbfs_c ( handl1 );
          dafbbs_c ( handl2 );

          dafcs_c  ( handl1  );
          daffna_c ( &found1 );

          dafcs_c  ( handl2  );
          daffpa_c ( &found2 );

          while ( found1 || found2 )
          {
             if ( found1 )
             {
                dafcs_c ( handl1 );
                dafgs_c ( sum    );
                dafgn_c ( name   );
                 .
                 .
                dafcs_c  ( handl1  );
                daffna_c ( &found1 );
             }

             if ( found2 )
             {
                dafcs_c ( handl2 );
                dafgs_c ( sum    );
                dafgn_c ( name   );
                 .
                 .
                dafcs_c  ( handl2  );
                daffpa_c ( &found2 );
             }
          }

       At any time, the latest array found (whether by daffna_c or daffpa_c)
       is regarded as the "current" array for the file in which the
       array was found. The last DAF in which a search was started,
       executed, or continued by any of dafbfs_c, dafbbs_c, daffna_c,
       daffpa_c or dafcs_c is regarded as the "current" DAF. The summary
       and name for the current array in the current DAF can be obtained
       separately, as shown above, by calls to dafgs_c (get summary) and
       dafgn_c (get name). The handle of the current DAF can also be
       obtained by calling dafgh_c (get handle).

       Once a search has been begun, it may be continued in either
       direction. That is, daffpa_c may be used to back up during a
       forward search, and daffna_c may be used to advance during a
       backward search.
#### Examples
       The numerical results shown for these examples 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) See -Particulars.

       2) Create a simple program to output the double precision and integer
          values stored in an SPK's segments' descriptors. This function
          opens a DAF for read, performs a backwards search for the DAF
          arrays, prints the segment descriptor for each array found, then
          closes the DAF.

          Use the SPK kernel below as input DAF file for the program.

             de421.bsp

          Example code begins here.

             SpiceBoolean            found;

             Open a DAF for read. Return a handle referring to the file.
             ./
             dafopr_c ( kernel, &handle );

             /.

             daffpa_c ( &found );

             /.
             Loop while the search finds subsequent DAF arrays.
             ./
             while ( found )
                {

                dafgs_c ( sum );
                dafus_c ( sum, ND, NI, dc, ic );

                printf( " Doubles: %f %f \n", dc[0], dc[1] );
                printf( "Integers: %d %d %d %d %d %d\n\n",
                           (int)ic[0], (int)ic[1], (int)ic[2],
                           (int)ic[3], (int)ic[4], (int)ic[5] );

                /.
                Check for another segment.
                ./
                daffpa_c ( &found );
                }

             /.
             Safely close the DAF.
             ./
             dafcls_c ( handle  );

             return ( 0 );

          (low value index).
