NAME

       MPI_Pcontrol -  Controls profiling

SYNOPSIS

       int MPI_Pcontrol(const int level, ...)

INPUT PARAMETERS

       level  - Profiling level
       ...    - other arguments (see notes)

NOTES

       This routine provides a common interface for profiling control.	The interpretation of level and any other arguments is left to the profil-
       ing library.  The intention is that a profiling library will provide a replacement for this routine and define the  interpretation  of  the
       parameters.

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.

ERRORS

       All  MPI  routines (except MPI_Wtime and MPI_Wtick ) return an error value; C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in
       the last argument.  Before the value is returned, the current MPI error handler is called.  By default, this error handler aborts  the  MPI
       job.   The  error  handler  may	be  changed  with  MPI_Comm_set_errhandler  (for  communicators), MPI_File_set_errhandler (for files), and
       MPI_Win_set_errhandler (for RMA windows).  The MPI-1 routine MPI_Errhandler_set may be used but its  use  is  deprecated.   The	predefined
       error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN may be used to cause error values to be returned.  Note that MPI does not guarentee that an MPI program can
       continue past an error; however, MPI implementations will attempt to continue whenever possible.

       MPI_SUCCESS
	      - No error; MPI routine completed successfully.
