MPI_Group_translate_ranks

Packit 0848f5
Translates the ranks of processes in one group to  those in another group 
Packit 0848f5

Synopsis

Packit 0848f5
Packit 0848f5
int MPI_Group_translate_ranks(MPI_Group group1, int n, const int ranks1[],
Packit 0848f5
                            MPI_Group group2, int ranks2[])

Input Parameters

Packit 0848f5
Packit 0848f5
group1
group1 (handle)
Packit 0848f5
Packit 0848f5
n
number of ranks in <tt>ranks1</tt> and <tt>ranks2</tt> arrays (integer)
Packit 0848f5
Packit 0848f5
ranks1
array of zero or more valid ranks in <tt>group1</tt>
Packit 0848f5
Packit 0848f5
group2
group2 (handle)

Output Parameters

Packit 0848f5
ranks2
array of corresponding ranks in group2, <tt>MPI_UNDEFINED</tt> when no
Packit 0848f5
correspondence exists. 
Packit 0848f5
Packit 0848f5

Packit 0848f5
As a special case (see the MPI-2 errata), if the input rank is
Packit 0848f5
<tt>MPI_PROC_NULL</tt>, <tt>MPI_PROC_NULL</tt> is given as the output rank.

Thread and Interrupt Safety

Packit 0848f5

Packit 0848f5
This routine is thread-safe.  This means that this routine may be
Packit 0848f5
safely used by multiple threads without the need for any user-provided
Packit 0848f5
thread locks.  However, the routine is not interrupt safe.  Typically,
Packit 0848f5
this is due to the use of memory allocation routines such as <tt>malloc
Packit 0848f5
</tt>or other non-MPICH runtime routines that are themselves not interrupt-safe.

Notes for Fortran

Packit 0848f5
All MPI routines in Fortran (except for <tt>MPI_WTIME</tt> and <tt>MPI_WTICK</tt>) have
Packit 0848f5
an additional argument <tt>ierr</tt> at the end of the argument list.  <tt>ierr
Packit 0848f5
</tt>is an integer and has the same meaning as the return value of the routine
Packit 0848f5
in C.  In Fortran, MPI routines are subroutines, and are invoked with the
Packit 0848f5
<tt>call</tt> statement.
Packit 0848f5

Packit 0848f5
All MPI objects (e.g., <tt>MPI_Datatype</tt>, <tt>MPI_Comm</tt>) are of type <tt>INTEGER
Packit 0848f5
</tt>in Fortran.

Errors

Packit 0848f5

Packit 0848f5
All MPI routines (except <tt>MPI_Wtime</tt> and <tt>MPI_Wtick</tt>) return an error value;
Packit 0848f5
C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last
Packit 0848f5
argument.  Before the value is returned, the current MPI error handler is
Packit 0848f5
called.  By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job.  The error handler
Packit 0848f5
may be changed with <tt>MPI_Comm_set_errhandler</tt> (for communicators),
Packit 0848f5
<tt>MPI_File_set_errhandler</tt> (for files), and <tt>MPI_Win_set_errhandler</tt> (for
Packit 0848f5
RMA windows).  The MPI-1 routine <tt>MPI_Errhandler_set</tt> may be used but
Packit 0848f5
its use is deprecated.  The predefined error handler
Packit 0848f5
<tt>MPI_ERRORS_RETURN</tt> may be used to cause error values to be returned.
Packit 0848f5
Note that MPI does not guarentee that an MPI program can continue past
Packit 0848f5
an error; however, MPI implementations will attempt to continue whenever
Packit 0848f5
possible.

Packit 0848f5
MPI_SUCCESS
No error; MPI routine completed successfully.
