NAME

       MPI_Type_struct -  Creates a struct datatype

SYNOPSIS

       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Type_struct(int count, int *lengths,
                          MPI_Aint *disps, MPI_Datatype *oldtypes,
                          MPI_Datatype *newtype)

INPUT PARAMETERS

       count  -  number  of blocks (integer) -- also number of entries in arrays array_of_types ,
              array_of_displacements  and array_of_blocklengths
       blocklens
              - number of elements in each block (array)
       indices
              - byte displacement of each block (array)
       old_types
              - type of elements in each block (array of handles to datatype objects)

OUTPUT PARAMETER

       newtype
              - new datatype (handle)

NOTES

       This function is deprecated.  It has been replaced with an MPI-2 function  (see  the  "See
       also"  section,  below),  which  provides  the  same  functionality.  This function is (or
       effectively is) a wrapper to the replacement function, anyway.  User programs  should  use
       the MPI-2 replacement function instead of this function.

       Some  functions  are deprecated because their names did not conform to the stricter naming
       conventions of MPI-2; others are deprecated because they  have  been  replaced  with  more
       flexible functionality.

MORE INFORMATION

       For  more information, please see the official MPI Forum web site, which contains the text
       of both the MPI-1 and MPI-2 standards.  These documents contain detailed information about
       each MPI function (most of which is not duplicated in these man pages).

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

       The  LAM  Team  would  like the thank the MPICH Team for the handy program to generate man
       pages  ("doctext"  from  ftp://ftp.mcs.anl.gov/pub/sowing/sowing.tar.gz  ),  the   initial
       formatting, and some initial text for most of the MPI-1 man pages.
