#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Type_struct(int count, int *lengths,
MPI_Aint *disps, MPI_Datatype *oldtypes,
MPI_Datatype *newtype)
|
| count |
| - number of blocks (integer) -- also number of entries in arrays array_of_types , array_of_displacements and array_of_blocklengths |
| blocklens |
| - number of elements in each block (array) |
| indices |
| - byte displacement of each block (array) |
| old_types |
| - type of elements in each block (array of handles to datatype objects) |
| newtype |
| - new datatype (handle) |
| This function is deprecated. It has been replaced with an MPI-2 function (see the "See also" section, below), which provides the same functionality. This function is (or effectively is) a wrapper to the replacement function, anyway. User programs should use the MPI-2 replacement function instead of this function. |
| Some functions are deprecated because their names did not conform to the stricter naming conventions of MPI-2; others are deprecated because they have been replaced with more flexible functionality. |

| For more information, please see the official MPI Forum web site, which contains the text of both the MPI-1 and MPI-2 standards. These documents contain detailed information about each MPI function (most of which is not duplicated in these man pages). |

| The LAM Team would like the thank the MPICH Team for the handy program to generate man pages ("doctext" from ftp://ftp.mcs.anl.gov/pub/sowing/sowing.tar.gz ), the initial formatting, and some initial text for most of the MPI-1 man pages. |
