NAME

       MPI_File_write_all_begin - Writes a file starting at the locations specified by individual
       file pointers; beginning part of a split collective routine (nonblocking).

SYNTAX

C Syntax

       #include <mpi.h> int  MPI_File_write_all_begin(MPI_File  fh,  const  void  *buf,       int
       count, MPI_Datatype datatype)

Fortran Syntax

       USE MPI
       ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_FILE_WRITE_ALL_BEGIN(FH, BUF, COUNT, DATATYPE, IERROR)
            <type>    BUF(*)
            INTEGER   FH, COUNT, DATATYPE, IERROR

C++ Syntax

       #include <mpi.h>
       void MPI::File::Write_all_begin(const void* buf, int count,
            const MPI::Datatype& datatype)

INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER

       fh        File handle (handle).

INPUT PARAMETERS

       buf       Initial address of buffer (choice).

       count     Number of elements in buffer (integer).

       datatype  Data type of each buffer element (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETER

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       MPI_File_write_all_begin  is the beginning part of a split collective, nonblocking routine
       that attempts to write into the file associated with fh (at the  current  individual  file
       pointer  position  maintained  by  the  system)  a total number of count data items having
       datatype type from the user's buffer buf.  The data is written into  those  parts  of  the
       file specified by the current view.

NOTES

       All  the  nonblocking  collective  routines for data access are "split" into two routines,
       each with _begin or _end as a suffix. These split collective routines are subject  to  the
       semantic rules described in Section 9.4.5 of the MPI-2 standard.

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. For  MPI  I/O
       function  errors, the default error handler is set to MPI_ERRORS_RETURN. The error handler
       may   be   changed   with   MPI_File_set_errhandler;   the   predefined   error    handler
       MPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL  may  be  used  to  make  I/O  errors  fatal.  Note that MPI does not
       guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
