NAME
MPI_Recv_init - Builds a handle for a receive.
SYNTAX
C Syntax
#include <mpi.h> int MPI_Recv_init(void *buf, int count, MPI_Datatype datatype, int source, int tag, MPI_Comm comm, MPI_Request *request)
Fortran Syntax
USE MPI ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h' MPI_RECV_INIT(BUF, COUNT, DATATYPE, SOURCE, TAG, COMM, REQUEST, IERROR) <type> BUF(*) INTEGER COUNT, DATATYPE, SOURCE, TAG, COMM, REQUEST, IERROR
Fortran 2008 Syntax
USE mpi_f08 MPI_Recv_init(buf, count, datatype, source, tag, comm, request, ierror) TYPE(*), DIMENSION(..), ASYNCHRONOUS :: buf INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: count, source, tag TYPE(MPI_Datatype), INTENT(IN) :: datatype TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(IN) :: comm TYPE(MPI_Request), INTENT(OUT) :: request INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror
C++ Syntax
#include <mpi.h> Prequest Comm::Recv_init(void* buf, int count, const Datatype& datatype, int source, int tag) const
INPUT PARAMETERS
- count
- Maximum number of elements to receive (integer).
- datatype
- Type of each entry (handle).
- source
- Rank of source (integer).
- tag
- Message tag (integer).
- comm
- Communicator (handle).
INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER
- buf
- Initial address of receive buffer (choice).
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
- request
- Communication request (handle).
- IERROR
- Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
Creates a persistent communication request for a receive operation. The argument buf is marked as OUT because the user gives permission to write on the receive buffer by passing the argument to MPI_Recv_init.
A persistent communication request is inactive after it is created – no active communication is attached to the request.
A communication (send or receive) that uses a persistent request is initiated by the function MPI_Start or MPI_Startall.
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.
