NAME
       MPI_Publish_name - Publishes a service name associated with a port

SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Publish_name(char *service_name, MPI_Info info,
	    char *port_name)

Fortran Syntax
       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_PUBLISH_NAME(SERVICE_NAME, INFO, PORT_NAME, IERROR)
	    CHARACTER*(*)  SERVICE_NAME, PORT_NAME
	    INTEGER	   INFO, IERROR

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       void MPI::Publish_name(const char* service_name, const MPI::Info& info,
	    const char* port_name)

INPUT PARAMETERS
       service_name  A service name (string).

       info	     Options to the name service functions (handle). No options currently supported.

       port_name     A port name (string).

OUTPUT PARAMETER
       IERROR	     Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION
       This  routine  publishes  the  pair (service_name, port_name) so that an application may retrieve port_name by calling MPI_Lookup_name with
       service_name as an argument. It is an error to publish the same service_name twice, or to use a port_name argument that was not	previously
       opened by the calling process via a call to MPI_Open_port.

       The info parameter should be MPI_INFO_NULL, as this routine does not parse any MPI Info arguments.

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 the MPI man page for a full list of MPI error codes.
