MPI_Type_hvector(3OpenMPI)												MPI_Type_hvector(3OpenMPI)

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. SEE ALSO

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
