MPI_Comm_compare  -  Compares two communicators.
 
 
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Comm_compare(MPI_Comm comm1, MPI_Comm comm2, int *result)
 
 
USE MPI
! or the older form: INCLUDE ’mpif.h’
MPI_COMM_COMPARE(COMM1, COMM2, RESULT, IERROR)
    INTEGER    COMM1, COMM2, RESULT, IERROR
 
 
USE mpi_f08
MPI_Comm_compare(comm1, comm2, result, ierror)
    TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(IN) :: comm1, comm2
    INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: result
    INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror
 
- 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.
