MPI_Type_hvector(3)

NAME
     MPI_Type_hvector - Creates a vector (strided) data type with offset in
     bytes

SYNOPSIS
     C:

          #include <mpi.h>

          int MPI_Type_hvector( count, blocklen, stride, old_type,
          newtype )
          int          count;
          int       blocklen;
          MPI_Aint     stride;
          MPI_Datatype old_type;
          MPI_Datatype *newtype;


     C++:

          #include <mpi.h>

          Datatype Datatype::Create_hvector(
          int               count,
          int               blocklength,
          Aint              stride) const


     Fortran:

          INCLUDE "mpif.h" (or USE MPI)

          INTEGER count, blocklength, stride, oldtype,
          newtype, ierror

          CALL MPI_TYPE_HVECTOR( count, blocklength, stride, oldtype, newtype, ierror)


STANDARDS
     This release implements the MPI 1.2 standard, as documented by the MPI
     Forum in the spring 1997 release of MPI:  A Message Passing Interface
     Standard.

DESCRIPTION
     The MPI_Type_hvector routine creates a vector (strided) data type with
     offset in bytes.  This routine accepts the following parameters:

     count          Specifies the number of blocks (nonnegative integer)

     blocklen       Specifies the number of elements in each block
                    (nonnegative integer)
     stride         Specifies the number of bytes between the start of each
                    block (integer)

     old_type       Specifies the old data type (handle)

     newtype        Returns the new data type (handle)

     ierror         Specifies the return code value for successful completion,
                    which is in MPI_SUCCESS.  MPI_SUCCESS is defined in the
                    mpif.h file.
