MPI_Address(3OpenMPI)													     MPI_Address(3OpenMPI)

NAME
MPI_Address - Gets the address of a location in memory -- use of this routine is deprecated. SYNTAX
C Syntax #include <mpi.h> int MPI_Address(void *location, MPI_Aint *address) Fortran Syntax INCLUDE 'mpif.h' MPI_ADDRESS(LOCATION, ADDRESS, IERROR) <type> LOCATION (*) INTEGER ADDRESS, IERROR INPUT PARAMETER
location Location in caller memory (choice). OUTPUT PARAMETERS
address Address of location (integer). IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer). DESCRIPTION
Note that use of this routine is deprecated as of MPI-2. Please use MPI_get_address instead. This deprecated routine is not available in C++. The address of a location in memory can be found by invoking this function. Returns the (byte) address of location. Example: Using MPI_Address for an array. REAL A(100,100) INTEGER I1, I2, DIFF CALL MPI_ADDRESS(A(1,1), I1, IERROR) CALL MPI_ADDRESS(A(10,10), I2, IERROR) DIFF = I2 - I1 ! The value of DIFF is 909*sizeofreal; the values of I1 and I2 are ! implementation dependent. NOTES
This routine is provided for both Fortran and C programmers and may be useful when writing portable code. In the current release, the address returned by this routine will be the same as that produced by the C & operator. C users may be tempted to avoid using MPI_Address and rely on the availability of the address operator &. Note, however, that & cast- expression is a pointer, not an address. ANSI C does not require that the value of a pointer (or the pointer cast to int) be the absolute address of the object pointed at although this is commonly the case. Furthermore, referencing may not have a unique definition on machines with a segmented address space. The use of MPI_Address to "reference" C variables guarantees portability to such machines as well. 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. Open MPI 1.2 September 2006 MPI_Address(3OpenMPI)

NAME
MPI_Win_create_errhandler - Creates an error handler for a window. SYNTAX
C Syntax #include <mpi.h> int MPI_Win_create_errhandler(MPI_Win_errhandler_fn *function, MPI_Errhandler *errhandler) Fortran Syntax INCLUDE 'mpif.h' MPI_WIN_CREATE_ERRHANDLER(FUNCTION, ERRHANDLER, IERROR) EXTERNAL FUNCTION INTEGER ERRHANDLER, IERROR C++ Syntax #include <mpi.h> static MPI::Errhandler MPI::Win::Create_errhandler(MPI::Win:: Errhandler_fn* function) INPUT PARAMETER
function User-defined error-handling procedure (function). OUTPUT PARAMETERS
errhandler MPI error handler (handle). IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer). DESCRIPTION
MPI_Win_create_errhandler should be, in C, a function of type MPI_Win_errhandler_fn, which is defined as typedef void MPI_Win_errhandler_fn(MPI Win *, int *, ...); The first argument is the window in use, the second is the error code to be returned. In Fortran, the user routine should be of the form: SUBROUTINE WIN_ERRHANDLER_FN(WIN, ERROR_CODE, ...) INTEGER WIN, ERROR_CODE In C++, the user routine should be of the form: typedef void MPI::Win::Errhandler_fn(MPI::Win &, int *, ...); ERRORS
