MPI_ADDRESS(3)MPI_ADDRESS(3)NAMEMPI_Address - Gets the address of a location in memory
SYNOPSIS
C:
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Address( location, address)
void *location;
MPI_Aint *address;
C++:
#include <mpi.h>
Aint Get_address(
void* location)
Fortran:
INCLUDE "mpif.h" (or USE MPI)
<type> LOCATION(*)
INTEGER address, ierror
CALL MPI_ADDRESS(location, address, ierror)
STANDARDS
This release implements the MPI 1.2 standard, as documented by the MPI
Forum in the spring 1997 release of MPI: A Message Passing Interface
Standard.
DESCRIPTION
The MPI_Address routine gets the address of a location in memory. This
routine is provided for both Fortran and C programmers. On many systems,
the address returned by this routine will be the same as produced by the
C & operator, but this is not required in C and might not be true of
systems with word- rather than byte-oriented instructions or systems with
segmented address spaces. This routine accepts the following parameters:
location Specifies the location in caller memory (choice)
address Returns the address of the location (integer)
ierror Specifies the return code value for successful completion,
which is in MPI_SUCCESS. MPI_SUCCESS is defined in the mpif.h
file.
