NAME

MPI_Info_get_valuelen − Retrieves the length of the key value associated with an info object.

C Syntax

#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Info_get_valuelen(MPI_Info info, const char *key,

int *valuelen, int *flag)

Fortran Syntax

USE MPI
! or the older form: INCLUDE ’mpif.h’
MPI_INFO_GET_VALUELEN(INFO, KEY, VALUELEN, FLAG, IERROR)


	INTEGER				INFO, VALUELEN, IERROR

	LOGICAL				FLAG

	CHARACTER()				KEY

Fortran 2008 Syntax

USE mpi_f08
MPI_Info_get_valuelen(info, key, valuelen, flag, ierror)

	TYPE(MPI_Info), INTENT(IN) :: info
	CHARACTER(LEN=), INTENT(IN) :: key*
	INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: valuelen
	LOGICAL, INTENT(OUT) :: flag
	INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

INPUT PARAMETERS

	info		Info object (handle).
	key		Key (string).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

	valuelen		Length of value arg (integer).
	flag		Returns true if key defined, false if not (boolean).
	IERROR		Fortran only: Error status (integer).

MPI_Info_get_valuelen retrieves the length of the value associated with key. If key is defined, valuelen is set to the length of its associated value and flag is set to true. If key is not defined, valuelen is not touched and flag is set to false. The length returned in C or C++ does not include the end-of-string character.

If key is larger than MPI_MAX_INFO_KEY, the call is erroneous.

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.
