MPI_Comm_compare - Compares two communicators.
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Comm_compare(MPI_Comm comm1, MPI_Comm comm2, int *result)
INCLUDE ’mpif.h’
MPI_COMM_COMPARE(COMM1, COMM2, RESULT, IERROR)
INTEGER COMM1, COMM2, RESULT, IERROR
#include <mpi.h>
static int Comm::Compare(const Comm& comm1, const Comm& comm2)
- comm1
- Comm1 (handle).
- comm2
- Comm2 (handle).
- result
- Result of comparison (integer).
- IERROR
- Fortran only: Error status (integer).
MPI_IDENT results if and only if comm1 and comm2 are handles
for the same object (identical groups and same contexts). MPI_CONGRUENT
results if the underlying groups are identical in constituents and rank
order; these communicators differ only by context. MPI_SIMILAR results of
the group members of both communicators are the same but the rank order
differs. MPI_UNEQUAL results otherwise.
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.
