MPI_Type_get_name(3OpenMPI)											       MPI_Type_get_name(3OpenMPI)

NAME

       MPI_Type_get_name - Gets the name of a data type.

SYNTAX

C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Type_get_name(MPI_Datatype type, char *type_name,
	    int *resultlen)

Fortran Syntax
       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       TYPE_GET_NAME(TYPE, TYPE_NAME, RESULTLEN, IERROR)
	    INTEGER   TYPE, RESULTLEN, IERROR
	    CHARACTER*(*) TYPE_NAME

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       void MPI::Datatype::Get_name(char* type_name, int& resultlen)
	    const

INPUT PARAMETER

       type	 Data type whose name is to be returned (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       type_name The name previously stored on the data type, or an empty string if not such name exists (string).

       resultlen Length of returned name (integer).

       IERROR	 Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       MPI_Type_get_name returns the printable identifier associated with an MPI data type.

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.

NAME

       MPI_Get_processor_name  - Gets the name of the processor.

SYNTAX

C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Get_processor_name(char *name, int *resultlen)

Fortran Syntax
       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_GET_PROCESSOR_NAME(NAME, RESULTLEN, IERROR)
	    CHARACTER*(*)  NAME
	    INTEGER	   RESULTLEN, IERROR

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       void Get_processor_name(char* name, int& resultlen)

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       name	 A unique specifier for the actual (as opposed to virtual) node.

       resultlen Length (in characters) of result returned in name.

       IERROR	 Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       This routine returns the name of the processor on which it was called at the moment of the call. The name is a character string for maximum
       flexibility. From this value it must be possible to identify a specific piece of hardware. The argument name must represent storage that is
       at least MPI_MAX_PROCESSOR_NAME characters long.

       The number of characters actually written is returned in the output argument, resultlen.

NOTES

       The  user must provide at least MPI_MAX_PROCESSOR_NAME space to write the processor name; processor names can be this long. The user should
       examine the output argument, resultlen, to determine the actual length of the name.

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.
