NAME

       MPI_Open_port - Establishes a network address for a server to accept connections from clients.

SYNTAX

C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Open_port(MPI_Info info, char *port_name)

Fortran Syntax
       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_OPEN_PORT(INFO, PORT_NAME, IERROR)
	    CHARACTER*(*)  PORT_NAME
	    INTEGER	   INFO, IERROR

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       void MPI::Open_port(const MPI::Info& info, char* port_name)

INPUT PARAMETER

       info	 Options on how to establish an address (handle). No options currently supported.

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       port_name Newly established port (string).

       IERROR	 Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       MPI_Open_port  establishes  a network address, encoded in the port_name string, at which the server will be able to accept connections from
       clients. port_name is supplied by the system.

       MPI copies a system-supplied port name into port_name. port_name identifies the newly opened port and can be used by a  client  to  contact
       the server. The maximum size string that may be supplied by the system is MPI_MAX_PORT_NAME.

SUPPORTED INFO KEYS

       None.

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++ func-
       tions 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.

NAME

       MPI_Close_port  - Releases the specified network address.

SYNTAX

C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Close_port(char *port_name)

Fortran Syntax
       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_CLOSE_PORT(PORT_NAME, IERROR)
	    CHARACTER*(*)  PORT_NAME
	    INTEGER	   IERROR

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       void MPI::Close_port(const char* port_name)

INPUT PARAMETER

       port_name A port (string).

OUTPUT PARAMETER

       IERROR	 Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       MPI_Close_port releases the network address represented by port_name.
