MPI_Type_set_attr

NAME

MPI_Type_set_attr - Sets a key value/attribute pair to a data type.

SYNTAX

C Syntax

 #include <mpi.h>
 int MPI_Type_set_attr(MPI_Datatype type, int type_keyval, 
         void *attribute_val)
 
 

 

Fortran Syntax (see FORTRAN 77 NOTES)

 INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
 MPI_TYPE_SET_ATTR(TYPE, TYPE_KEYVAL, ATTRIBUTE_VAL, IERROR)
         INTEGER TYPE, TYPE_KEYVAL, IERROR
         INTEGER(KIND=MPI_ADDRESS_KIND) ATTRIBUTE_VAL
 
 

 

C++ Syntax

 #include <mpi.h>
 void MPI::Datatype::Set_attr(int type_keyval, const void* attribute_val)
 
 

 

INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER

type

Data type to which attribute will be attached (handle).

INPUT PARAMETERS

type_keyval

Key value (integer).

attribute_val

Attribute value.

OUTPUT PARAMETER

IERROR

Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

For the given data type, MPI_Type_set_attr sets the key value to the value of the specified attribute.

FORTRAN 77 NOTES

The MPI standard prescribes portable Fortran syntax for the ATTRIBUTE_VAL argument only for Fortran 90. FORTRAN 77 users may use the non-portable syntax

      INTEGER*MPI_ADDRESS_KIND ATTRIBUTE_VAL
 

where MPI_ADDRESS_KIND is a constant defined in mpif.h and gives the length of the declared integer in bytes.

ERRORS

Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument. C++ functions do not return errors. If the default error handler is set to MPI::ERRORS_THROW_EXCEPTIONS, then on error the C++ exception mechanism will be used to throw an MPI:Exception object.

Before the error value is returned, the current MPI error handler is called. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job, except for I/O function errors. The error handler may be changed with MPI_Comm_set_errhandler; the predefined error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN may be used to cause error values to be returned. Note that MPI does not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
