NAME
MPI_Cart_get - Retrieves Cartesian topology information associated with a communicator.
SYNTAX
C Syntax
#include <mpi.h> int MPI_Cart_get(MPI_Comm comm, int maxdims, int dims[], int periods[], int coords[])
Fortran Syntax
USE MPI ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h' MPI_CART_GET(COMM, MAXDIMS, DIMS, PERIODS, COORDS, IERROR) INTEGER COMM, MAXDIMS, DIMS(*), COORDS(*), IERROR LOGICAL PERIODS(*)
Fortran 2008 Syntax
USE mpi_f08 MPI_Cart_get(comm, maxdims, dims, periods, coords, ierror) TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(IN) :: comm INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: maxdims INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: dims(maxdims), coords(maxdims) LOGICAL, INTENT(OUT) :: periods(maxdims) INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror
C++ Syntax
#include <mpi.h> void Cartcomm::Get_topo(int maxdims, int dims[], bool periods[], int coords[]) const
INPUT PARAMETERS
- comm
- Communicator with Cartesian structure (handle).
- maxdims
- Length of vectors dims, periods, and coords in the calling program (integer).
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
- dims
- Number of processes for each Cartesian dimension (array of integers).
- periods
- Periodicity (true/false) for each Cartesian dimension (array of logicals).
- coords
- Coordinates of calling process in Cartesian structure (array of integers).
- IERROR
- Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
The functions MPI_Cartdim_get and MPI_Cart_get return the Cartesian topology information that was associated with a communicator by MPI_Cart_create.
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++ functions 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.
