NAME

       MPI_Type_hvector - Creates a vector (strided) datatype with offset in bytes -- use of this routine is deprecated.

SYNTAX

C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Type_hvector(int count, int blocklength, MPI_Aint stride,
	    MPI_Datatype oldtype, MPI_Datatype *newtype)

Fortran Syntax
       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_TYPE_HVECTOR(COUNT, BLOCKLENGTH, STRIDE, OLDTYPE, NEWTYPE,
		 IERROR)
	    INTEGER   COUNT, BLOCKLENGTH, STRIDE, OLDTYPE
	    INTEGER   NEWTYPE, IERROR

INPUT PARAMETERS

       count	 Number of blocks (nonnegative integer).

       blocklength
		 Number of elements in each block (nonnegative integer).

       stride	 Number of bytes between start of each block (integer).

       oldtype	 Old datatype (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       newtype	 New datatype (handle).

       IERROR	 Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       Note that use of this routine is deprecated as of MPI-2. Use MPI_Type_create_hvector instead.

       This deprecated routine is not available in C++.

       The  function  MPI_Type_hvector is identical to MPI_Type_vector, except that stride is given in bytes, rather than in elements. The use for
       both types of vector constructors is illustrated in the examples in Section 3.12.7 of the MPI-1 Standard.

       Assume that oldtype has type map

	   {(type(0), disp(0)), ..., (type(n-1), disp(n-1))}

       with extent ex. Let bl be the blocklength. The newly created datatype has a type map with   count * bl * n  entries:

	 {(type(0), disp(0)), ..., (type(n-1), disp(n-1)),
	 (type(0), disp(0) + ex), ..., (type(n-1), disp(n-1) + ex),
	 ..., (type(0), disp(0) + (bl -1) * ex),...,(type(n-1),
	 disp(n-1) + (bl -1) * ex), (type(0), disp(0) + stride),
	 ...,(type(n-1), disp(n-1) + stride), ..., (type(0),
	 disp(0) + stride + (bl - 1) * ex), ..., (type(n-1),
	 disp(n-1) + stride + (bl -1) * ex), ..., (type(0),
	 disp(0) + stride * (count -1)), ...,(type(n-1),
	 disp(n-1) + stride * (count -1)), ..., (type(0),
	 disp(0) + stride * (count -1) + (bl -1) * ex), ...,
	 (type(n-1), disp(n-1) + stride * (count -1) + (bl -1) * ex)}

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_Type_create_hvector - Creates a vector (strided) data type with offset in bytes.

SYNTAX

C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Type_create_hvector(int count, int blocklength,
	    MPI_Aint stride, MPI_Datatype oldtype, MPI_Datatype *newtype)

Fortran Syntax (see FORTRAN 77 NOTES)
       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_TYPE_CREATE_HVECTOR(COUNT, BLOCKLENGTH, STRIDE, OLDTYPE,
	    NEWTYPE, IERROR)

	    INTEGER   COUNT, BLOCKLENGTH, OLDTYPE, NEWTYPE, IERROR
	    INTEGER(KIND=MPI_ADDRESS_KIND) STRIDE

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       MPI::Datatype MPI::Datatype::Create_hvector(int count,
	    int blocklength, MPI::Aint stride) const

INPUT PARAMETERS

       count	 Number of blocks (nonnegative integer).

       blocklength
		 Number of elements in each block (nonnegative integer).

       stride	 Number of bytes between start of each block (integer).

       oldtype	 Old data type (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       newtype	 New data type (handle).

       IERROR	 Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       MPI_Type_create_hvector creates a vector (strided) data type with offset in bytes.

       NOTE  -	This  routine replaces MPI_Type_hvector, which is deprecated. See the man page MPI_Type_hvector(3) for information about that rou-
       tine.

FORTRAN 77 NOTES
       The MPI standard prescribes portable Fortran syntax for the STRIDE argument only for Fortran 90.  FORTRAN 77 users may use the non-portable
       syntax

	    INTEGER*MPI_ADDRESS_KIND STRIDE

       where MPI_ADDRESS_KIND is a constant defined in mpif.h and gives the length of the declared integer in bytes.

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.
