NAME

       MPI_Cartdim_get    -    Retrieves   Cartesian   topology  information  associated  with  a
       communicator.

SYNTAX

C Syntax

       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Cartdim_get(MPI_Comm comm, int *ndims)

Fortran Syntax

       USE MPI
       ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_CARTDIM_GET(COMM, NDIMS, IERROR)
            INTEGER   COMM, NDIMS, IERROR

Fortran 2008 Syntax

       USE mpi_f08
       MPI_Cartdim_get(comm, ndims, ierror)
            TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(IN) :: comm
            INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: ndims
            INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

C++ Syntax

       #include <mpi.h>
       int Cartcomm::Get_dim() const

INPUT PARAMETER

       comm      Communicator with Cartesian structure (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       ndims     Number of dimensions of the Cartesian structure (integer).

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       MPI_Cartdim_get returns the number of dimensions of the Cartesian structure.

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.
