MPI_TYPE_HINDEXED(3)MPI_TYPE_HINDEXED(3)NAMEMPI_Type_hindexed - Creates an indexed data type with offsets in bytes
SYNOPSIS
C:
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Type_hindexed( count, blocklens, indices,
old_type, newtype )
int count;
int blocklens[];
MPI_Aint indices[];
MPI_Datatype old_type;
MPI_Datatype *newtype;
C++:
#include <mpi.h>
Datatype Datatype::Create_hindexed(
int count,
const intarray_of_blocklengths[],
const Aint array_of_displacements[]) const
Fortran:
INCLUDE "mpif.h" (or USE MPI)
INTEGER count, array_of_blocklengths(*),
array_of_displacements(*), oldtype, newtype, ierror
CALL MPI_TYPE_HINDEXED(count, array_of_blocklengths(*),
array_of_displacements(*), oldtype, newtype, 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_Type_hindexed routine creates an indexed data type with offsets
in bytes. This routine accepts the following parameters:
count Specifies the number of blocks. Also specifies the number of
entries in indices and blocklens (integer)

blocklens Specifies the number of elements in each block (array of
nonnegative integers)
indices Specifies the byte displacement of each block (array of
integers)
old_type Specifies the old data type (handle)
newtype Returns the new data type (handle)
ierror Specifies the return code value for successful completion,
which is in MPI_SUCCESS. MPI_SUCCESS is defined in the mpif.h
file.
