NAME

       MPI_T_cvar_handle_alloc, MPI_T_cvar_handle_free - Allocate/free contol variable handles

SYNTAX

C Syntax

       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_T_cvar_handle_alloc(int cvar_index, void *obj_handle,
                                   MPI_T_cvar_handle *handle, int *count)

       int MPI_T_cvar_handle_free(MPI_T_cvar_handle *handle)

DESCRIPTION

       MPI_T_cvar_handle_alloc binds the control variable specified in cvar_index to the MPI object specified in
       obj_handle. If MPI_T_cvar_get_info returns MPI_T_BIND_NO_OBJECT  as  the  binding  of  the  variable  the
       obj_handle  argument is ignored. The number of values represented by this control variable is returned in
       the count parameter. If the control variable represents a string then count will be the maximum length of
       the string.

       MPI_T_cvar_handle_free  frees  a handle allocated by MPI_T_cvar_handle_alloc and sets the handle argument
       to MPI_T_CVAR_HANDLE_NULL.

NOTES

       Open MPI does not currently support binding MPI objects to control variables so the  obj_handle  argument
       is always ignored.

ERRORS

       MPI_T_cvar_handle_alloc() will fail if:

       [MPI_T_ERR_NOT_INITIALIZED]
                 The MPI Tools interface not initialized

       [MPI_T_ERR_INVALID_INDEX]
                 The control variable index is invalid

       [MPI_T_ERR_OUT_OF_HANDLES]
                 No more handles available

       MPI_T_cvar_handle_free() will fail if:

       [MPI_T_ERR_NOT_INITIALIZED]
                 The MPI Tools interface not initialized

       [MPI_T_ERR_INVALID_HANDLE]
                 The handle is invalid
