/*
 * This example shows how to use PAPI_library_init, PAPI_create_eventset,
 * PAPI_add_event, * PAPI_start and PAPI_stop.  These 5 functions 
 * will allow a user to do most of the performance information gathering
 * that they would need. PAPI_read could also be used if you don't want
 * to stop the EventSet from running but only check the counts.
 *
 * Also, we will use PAPI_perror for * error information.
 *
 * In addition, a new call was created called PAPI_add_env_event
 * that allows a user to setup environment variable to read 
 * which event should be monitored this allows different events
 * to be monitored at runtime without recompiling, the syntax
 * is as follows:
 * PAPI_add_env_event(int *EventSet, int *Event, char *env_variable);
 * EventSet is the same as in PAPI_add_event
 * Event is the default event to monitor if the environment variable
 *       does not exist and differs from PAPI_add_event as it is
 *       a pointer.
 * env_varialbe is the name of the environment variable to look for
 *       the event code, this can be a name, number or hex, for example
 *       PAPI_L1_DCM could be defined in the environment variable as
 *       all of the following:  PAPI_L1_DCM, 0x80000000, or -2147483648
 *
 * To use only add_event you would change the calls to 
 * PAPI_add_env_event(int *EventSet, int *Event, char *env_variable);
 * to PAPI_add_event(int *EventSet, int Event);
 *
 * We will also use PAPI_event_code_to_name since the event may have
 * changed.
