MPI_Status_f2c, MPI_Status_c2f - Translates a C status into a Fortran
status, or vice versa.
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Status_f2c(MPI_Fint *f_status, MPI_Status *c_status)
int MPI_Status_c2f(MPI_Status *c_status, MPI_Fint *f_status)
These two procedures are provided in C to convert from a Fortran
status (which is an array of integers) to a C status (which is a structure),
and vice versa. The conversion occurs on all the information in status,
including that which is hidden. That is, no status information is lost in
the conversion.
When using MPI_Status_f2c, if f_status is a valid Fortran
status, but not the Fortran value of MPI_STATUS_IGNORE or MPI_STATUSES_IGNORE,
then MPI_Status_f2c returns in c_status a valid C status with the same
content. If f_status is the Fortran value of MPI_STATUS_IGNORE or MPI_STATUSES_IGNORE,
or if f_status is not a valid Fortran status, then the call is erroneous.
When using MPI_Status_c2f, the opposite conversion is applied. If c_status
is MPI_STATUS_IGNORE or MPI_STATUSES_IGNORE, or if c_status is not a valid
C status, then the call is erroneous.
The C status has the same source,
tag and error code values as the Fortran status, and returns the same answers
when queried for count, elements, and cancellation. The conversion function
may be called with a Fortran status argument that has an undefined error
field, in which case the value of the error field in the C status argument
is undefined.
