MPI_Group_excl(3OpenMPI) MPI_Group_excl(3OpenMPI)
NAME
MPI_Group_excl - Produces a group by reordering an existing group and
taking only unlisted members.
SYNTAX
C Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Group_excl(MPI_Group group, int n, int *ranks,
MPI_Group *newgroup)
Fortran Syntax
INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
MPI_GROUP_EXCL(GROUP, N, RANKS, NEWGROUP, IERROR)
INTEGER GROUP, N, RANKS(*), NEWGROUP, IERROR
C++ Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
Group Group::Excl(int n, const int ranks[]) const
INPUT PARAMETERS
group Group (handle).
n Number of elements in array ranks (integer).
ranks Array of integer ranks in group not to appear in newgroup.
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
newgroup New group derived from above, preserving the order defined by
group (handle).
IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
The function MPI_Group_excl creates a group of processes newgroup that
is obtained by deleting from group those processes with ranks ranks[0],
... ranks[n-1]. The ordering of processes in newgroup is identical to
the ordering in group. Each of the n elements of ranks must be a valid
rank in group and all elements must be distinct; otherwise, the call is
erroneous. If n = 0, then newgroup is identical to group.
NOTE
Currently, each of the ranks to exclude must be a valid rank in the
group and all elements must be distinct or the function is erroneous.
This restriction is per the draft.
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++ func-
tions 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.
