MPI_Comm_compare(3)                Open MPI                MPI_Comm_compare(3)

NAME
       MPI_Comm_compare  -  Compares two communicators.

SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Comm_compare(MPI_Comm comm1, MPI_Comm comm2, int *result)

Fortran Syntax
       USE MPI
       ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_COMM_COMPARE(COMM1, COMM2, RESULT, IERROR)
            INTEGER   COMM1, COMM2, RESULT, IERROR

Fortran 2008 Syntax
       USE mpi_f08
       MPI_Comm_compare(comm1, comm2, result, ierror)
            TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(IN) :: comm1, comm2
            INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: result
            INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       static int Comm::Compare(const Comm& comm1, const Comm& comm2)

INPUT PARAMETERS
       comm1     Comm1 (handle).

       comm2     Comm2 (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS
       result    Result of comparison (integer).

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION
       MPI_IDENT  results  if  and only if comm1 and comm2 are handles for the
       same object (identical groups and same contexts). MPI_CONGRUENT results
       if  the underlying groups are identical in constituents and rank order;
       these communicators differ only by context. MPI_SIMILAR results of  the
       group  members  of  both  communicators are the same but the rank order
       differs. MPI_UNEQUAL results otherwise.

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++ func-
       tions 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.
