NAME
MPI_Attr_put - Stores attribute value associated with a key -- use of
this routine is deprecated.
SYNTAX
C Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Attr_put(MPI_Comm comm, int keyval, void *attribute_val)
Fortran Syntax
INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
MPI_ATTR_PUT(COMM, KEYVAL, ATTRIBUTE_VAL, IERROR)
INTEGER COMM, KEYVAL, ATTRIBUTE_VAL, IERROR
INPUT PARAMETERS
comm Communicator to which attribute will be attached (handle).
keyval Key value, as returned by MPI_KEYVAL_CREATE (integer).
attribute_val
Attribute value.
OUTPUT PARAMETER
IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
Note that use of this routine is deprecated as of MPI-2. Please use
MPI_Comm_set_attr instead.
This deprecated routine is not available in C++.
MPI_Attr_put stores the stipulated attribute value attribute_val for
subsequent retrieval by MPI_Attr_get. If the value is already present,
then the outcome is as if MPI_Attr_delete was first called to delete
the previous value (and the callback function delete_fn was executed),
and a new value was next stored. The call is erroneous if there is no
key with value keyval; in particular MPI_KEYVAL_INVALID is an erroneous
key value. The call will fail if the delete_fn function returned an
error code other than MPI_SUCCESS.
NOTES
Values of the permanent attributes MPI_TAG_UB, MPI_HOST, MPI_IO, and
MPI_WTIME_IS_GLOBAL may not be changed.
The type of the attribute value depends on whether C or Fortran is
being used. In C, an attribute value is a pointer (void *); in Fortran,
it is a single integer (not a pointer, since Fortran has no pointers
and there are systems for which a pointer does not fit in an integer,
e.g., any 32-bit address system that uses 64 bits for Fortran DOUBLE
PRECISION).
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.
