MPI_Type_contiguous function
Defines a new data type that is a concatenation of a number of elements of an existing data type.
Syntax
int MPIAPI MPI_Type_contiguous(
int count,
MPI_Datatype oldtype,
_Out_ MPI_Datatype *newtype
);
Parameters
count
The number of elements in the new data type.oldtype
The MPI data type of each element.newtype [out]
On return, contains an MPI_Datatype handle that represents the new data type.
Return value
Returns MPI_SUCCESS on success. Otherwise, the return value is an error code.
In Fortran, the return value is stored in the IERROR parameter.
Fortran
MPI_TYPE_CONTIGUOUS(COUNT, OLDTYPE, NEWTYPE, IERROR)
INTEGER COUNT, OLDTYPE, NEWTYPE, IERROR
Remarks
The concatenation of the new data type is defined by using the extent of the old data type as the size of the concatenated copies.
