MPI_File_get_position(3)						MPI						  MPI_File_get_position(3)

NAME
       MPI_File_get_position -	Returns the current position of the  individual file pointer in etype units relative to the current view

SYNOPSIS
       int MPI_File_get_position(MPI_File mpi_fh, MPI_Offset *offset)

INPUT PARAMETERS
       fh     - file handle (handle)

OUTPUT PARAMETERS
       offset - offset of individual file pointer (nonnegative integer)

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.
