TAU_PHASE_CREATE_STA(3) 				      TAU Instrumentation API					   TAU_PHASE_CREATE_STA(3)

NAME

       TAU_PHASE_CREATE_STATIC - Defines a static phase.

SYNOPSIS

       C/C++:

       TAU_PHASE_CREATE_STATIC(Phase phase, char* or string& function_name, char* or string& type, TauGroup_t group);

       Fortran:

       TAU_PHASE_CREATE_STATIC(integer phase(2), character name(size));

DESCRIPTION

       TAU_PHASE_CREATE_STATIC creates a static phase. Static phases (and timers) are more efficient than dynamic ones because the function
       registration only takes place once.

EXAMPLE

       C/C++ :

       int f2(void)
       {
	 TAU_PHASE_CREATE_STATIC(t2,"IO Phase", "", TAU_USER);
	 TAU_PHASE_START(t2);
	 input();
	 output();
	 TAU_PHASE_STOP(t2);
	 return 0;
       }

       Fortran :

       subroutine F2()

	 integer phase(2) / 0, 0 /
	 save	 phase

	 call TAU_PHASE_CREATE_STATIC(phase,'IO Phase')
	 call TAU_PHASE_START(phase)

	 call INPUT()
	 call OUTPUT()

	 call TAU_PHASE_STOP(phase)
       end
