NAME

       MPI_T_enum_get_item - Query information about an enumerator

SYNTAX

C Syntax

       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_T_enum_get_item(MPI_T_enum enumtype, int index, int *value, char *name,
                               int *name_len)

INPUT PARAMETERS

       enumtype  Enumeration to be queried.

       index     Number of the value to be queried in this enumeration.

INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       name_len  Length of the string and/or buffer for name.

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       value     Variable value.

       name      Buffer to return the string containing the name of the category.

DESCRIPTION

       MPI_T_enum_get_item  can be used to query information about an item in an enumerator. This
       function returns the enumeration value in the value parameter.

NOTES

       This MPI tool interface function returns the name of the item as a string.  This  function
       takes  two arguments for the string: a buffer to store the string, and a length which must
       initially specify the size of the buffer. If the length passed is  n  then  this  function
       will  copy  at  most n - 1 characters of the string into the buffer and sets the length to
       the number of characters copied - 1. If the length argument is NULL or the value specified
       in  the  length is 0 the string buffer is ignored and the string is not returned. For more
       information see MPI-3 ยง 14.3.3.

ERRORS

       MPI_T_enum_get_item() will fail if:

       [MPI_T_ERR_NOT_INITIALIZED]
                 The MPI Tools interface not initialized

       [MPI_T_ERR_INVALID_INDEX]
                 The enumeration is invalid or has been deleted
