NAME

MPI_Comm_remote_group - Returns the remote group of a intercommunicator

SYNOPSIS

#include <mpi.h> 
int MPI_Comm_remote_group(MPI_Comm comm , int *group ); 
#include <pmpi.h> 
int PMPI_Comm_remote_group(MPI_Comm comm , int *group ); 

INPUT PARAMETER

comm - intercommunicator (handle)

OUTPUT PARAMETER

group - the remote group of the intercommunicator (handle).

DESCRIPTION

The MPI_Comm_remote_group() function is used to obtain the local group of the intercommunicator. This group should eventually be freed via the MPI_Group_free() function. The intercommunicator must be a valid one (not MPI_COMM_NULL). PMPI_Comm_remote_group() is the profiling version of this function.

ERRORS

All MPI routines except for MPI_Wtime and MPI_Wtick return an error value. The the current MPI error handler is invoked if this return value is not MPI_SUCCESS. The default error handler aborts, but this may be changed with by using the MPI_Errhandler_set() function. The predefined error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN may be used to cause error values to be returned instead. Note that MPI does not guarentee that an MPI program can continue past an error. In this implementation, all errors except MPI_ERR_INTERN or MPI_ERR_OTHER should always be recoverable.

MPI_SUCCESS - No error;

MPI_ERR_COMM - Invalid intercommunicator;

MPI_ERR_ARG - Invalid output pointer.
