MPI_Group_intersection(3)          Open MPI          MPI_Group_intersection(3)

NAME
       MPI_Group_intersection   -  Produces a group at the intersection of two
       existing groups.

SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Group_intersection(MPI_Group group1, MPI_Group group2,
            MPI_Group *newgroup)

Fortran Syntax
       USE MPI
       ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_GROUP_INTERSECTION(GROUP1, GROUP2, NEWGROUP, IERROR)
            INTEGER   GROUP1, GROUP2, NEWGROUP, IERROR

Fortran 2008 Syntax
       USE mpi_f08
       MPI_Group_intersection(group1, group2, newgroup, ierror)
            TYPE(MPI_Group), INTENT(IN) :: group1, group2
            TYPE(MPI_Group), INTENT(OUT) :: newgroup
            INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       static Group Group::Intersect(const Group& group1, const Group& group2)

INPUT PARAMETERS
       group1    First group (handle).

       group2    Second group (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS
       newgroup  Intersection group (handle).

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION
       The set-like operations are defined as follows:

         o    union -- All elements of the first group (group1),  followed  by
              all elements of second group (group2) not in first.

         o    intersect  --  all  elements of the first group that are also in
              the second group, ordered as in first group.

         o    difference -- all elements of the first group that  are  not  in
              the second group, ordered as in the first group.

       Note  that  for  these  operations the order of processes in the output
       group is determined primarily by order in the first group (if possible)
       and then, if necessary, by order in the second group. Neither union nor
       intersection are commutative, but both are associative.

       The new group can be empty, that is, equal to MPI_GROUP_EMPTY.

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.
