NAME

MPI_Rsend_init - Builds a handle for a ready send.

SYNTAX

C Syntax

#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Rsend_init(const void *buf, int count, MPI_Datatype datatype,
	int dest, int tag, MPI_Comm comm, MPI_Request *request)

Fortran Syntax

USE MPI
! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
MPI_RSEND_INIT(BUF, COUNT, DATATYPE, DEST, TAG, COMM, REQUEST,
		IERROR)
	<type>	BUF(*)
	INTEGER	COUNT, DATATYPE, DEST, TAG, COMM, REQUEST, IERROR

C++ Syntax

#include <mpi.h>
Prequest Comm::Rsend_init(const void* buf, int count, const
	Datatype& datatype, int dest, int tag) const

INPUT PARAMETERS

buf: Initial address of send buffer (choice).
count: Number of elements sent (integer).
datatype: Type of each element (handle).
dest: Rank of destination (integer).
tag: Message tag (integer).
comm: Communicator (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

request: Communication request (handle).
IERROR: Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

Creates a persistent communication object for a ready mode send operation, and binds to it all the arguments of a send operation.

A communication (send or receive) that uses a persistent request is initiated by the function MPI_Start.

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++ 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.
