How to obtain the number of dimensions of a mutli-dimensional array with VPI routine?

[hfly47]

Verilog VPI provides a routine vpi_handle_by_multi_index() to obtain
one word of a mutli-dimensional array.
Its 2nd argument is the number of dimensions, but I don't know how to
obtain the number of dimensions of a mutli-dimensional array?
Is there any way to do this?
Can anyone show the example code?

Thanks a lot

Thanks for your attentions.
A kind person has told me the method, shown as below:

unsigned dims = 0;
vpiHandle range = vpi_iterate(vpiRange, array_handle);
while (vpi_scan(range)) dims += 1;
