NAME

       MPI_WIN_DUP_FN -  Built-in MPI function to simple-mindedly copy window attributes.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_WIN_DUP_FN(MPI_Win win, int key, void *extra,
	    void *attrin, void *attrout, int *flag)

INPUT PARAMETERS

       win    - window (handle)
       key    - key value (integer)
       extra  - extra state
       attrin - in value for attribute

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       attrout
	      - out value for attribute
       flag   - 1 if attribute copied successfully, 0 otherwise (logical)

NOTES

       This  function  blindly	byte-copies  attributes on windows.  It is the default atrribute-copying function for windows.	This function will
       always return MPI_SUCCESS , and flag will always be set to 1.

       The actual copy is performed by the code

       *((void **) attrout) = attrin;

       If this simple assignment is not sufficient for your attributes, you will need to reassign the attribute-copying function on relevant  key-
       vals on windows with the MPI_Win_keyval_create function.

NOTES FOR FORTRAN

       All  MPI  routines in Fortran (except for MPI_WTIME and MPI_WTICK ) have an additional argument ierr at the end of the argument list.  ierr
       is an integer and has the same meaning as the return value of the routine in C.	In Fortran, MPI routines are subroutines, and are  invoked
       with the call statement.

       All MPI objects (e.g., MPI_Datatype , MPI_Comm ) are of type INTEGER in Fortran.

       documents contain detailed information about each MPI function (most of which is not duplicated in these man pages).

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

       The LAM Team would like the thank the MPICH Team for the handy program to generate man pages ("doctext" from ftp://ftp.mcs.anl.gov/pub/sow-
       ing/sowing.tar.gz ), the initial formatting, and some initial text for most of the MPI-1 man pages.
