NAME

       TAU_PROFILE_STOP - Stops a timer.

SYNOPSIS

       C/C++:

       TAU_PROFILE_STOP(Profiler timer);

       Fortran:

       TAU_PROFILE_STOP(integer profiler(2));

DESCRIPTION

       Stops the timer given by timer. It is important to note that timers can be nested, but not
       overlapping. TAU detects programming errors that lead to such overlaps at runtime, and
       prints a warning message.

EXAMPLE

       C/C++ :

       int foo(int a) {
         TAU_PROFILE_TIMER(timer, "foo", "int (int)", TAU_USER);
         TAU_PROFILE_START(timer);
         ...
         TAU_PROFILE_STOP(timer);
         return a;
       }

       Fortran :

       subroutine F1()
         integer profiler(2) / 0, 0 /
         save    profiler

         call TAU_PROFILE_TIMER(profiler,'f1()')
         call TAU_PROFILE_START(profiler)
         ...
         call TAU_PROFILE_STOP(profiler)
       end
