INPUT PARAMETERS
win Window object (handle).
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
MPI_Win_wait is a one-sided MPI communication synchronization call that
completes an RMA exposure epoch started by a call to MPI_Win_post on
win. This call matches calls to MPI_Win_complete(win) issued by each of
the processes that were granted access to the window during this epoch.
The call to MPI_Win_wait blocks until all matching calls to
MPI_Win_complete have occurred. This guarantees that all these origin
processes have completed their RMA accesses to the local window. When
the call returns, all these RMA accesses will have completed at the
target window.
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_Win_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.
