NAME

MPI_Info_get_nthkey - Returns the n/th defined key in /info.

SYNTAX

C Syntax

  #include <mpi.h>
  int MPI_Info_get_nthkey(MPI_Info info, int n, char *key)

Fortran Syntax

  USE MPI
  ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
  MPI_INFO_GET_NTHKEY(INFO, N, KEY, IERROR)
  	INTEGER		INFO, N, IERROR
  	CHARACTER*(*)	KEY

Fortran 2008 Syntax

  USE mpi_f08
  MPI_Info_get_nthkey(info, n, key, ierror)
  	TYPE(MPI_Info), INTENT(IN) :: info
  	INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: n
  	CHARACTER(LEN=*), INTENT(OUT) :: key
  	INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

C++ Syntax

  #include <mpi.h>
  void MPI::Info::Get_nthkey(int n, char* key) const

INPUT PARAMETERS

info
Info object (handle).
n
Key number (integer).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

key
Key (string).
IERROR
Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

MPI_Info_get_nthkey returns the n/th defined key in /info. Keys are numbered 0…/N/ - 1 where N is the value returned by MPI_Info_get_nkeys. All keys between 0 and N - 1 are guaranteed to be defined. The number of a given key does not change as long as info is not modified with MPI_Info_set or MPI_Info_delete.

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.
