MPI_Group_compare(3) Open MPI MPI_Group_compare(3)NAMEMPI_Group_compare - Compares two groups.
SYNTAXC Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Group_compare(MPI_Group group1, MPI_Group group2,
int *result)
Fortran Syntax
INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
MPI_GROUP_COMPARE(GROUP1, GROUP2, RESULT, IERROR)
INTEGER GROUP1, GROUP2, RESULT, IERROR
C++ Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
static int Group::Compare(const Group& group1, const Group& group2)
INPUT PARAMETERS
group1 First group (handle).
group2 Second group (handle).
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
result Integer which is MPI_IDENT if the order and members of the
two groups are the same, MPI_SIMILAR if only the members are
the same, and MPI_UNEQUAL otherwise.
IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
MPI_IDENT results if the group members and group order is exactly the
same in both groups. This happens for instance if group1 and group2 are
the same handle. MPI_SIMILAR results if the group members are the same
but the order is different. MPI_UNEQUAL results otherwise.
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.
