MPE_Open_graphics − (collectively) opens an X Windows display

int is_collective;
comm |
- Communicator of participating processes |
display
- Name of X window display. If null, display will be taken from the DISPLAY variable on the process with rank 0 in comm . If that is either undefined, or starts with w ":", then the value of display is ‘hostname‘:0
x,y |
- position of the window. If (-1,-1) , then the user should be asked to position the window (this is a window manager issue). |
||
w,h |
- width and height of the window, in pixels. |
is_collective
- true if the graphics operations are collective; this allows the MPE graphics operations to make fewer connections to the display. If false, then all processes in the communicator comm will open the display; this could exceed the number of connections that your X window server allows. Not yet implemented.
handle |
- Graphics handle to be given to other MPE graphics routines. |
This is a collective routine. All processes in the given communicator must call it, and it has the same semantics as MPI_Barrier (that is, other collective operations can not cross this routine).
The Fortran interface to this routine is different from its C counterpart and it has an additional argument, ierr, at the end of the argument list, i.e. the returned function value (the error code) in C interface is returned as the additional argument in Fortran interface. The Fortran interface is invoked with the CALL statement.
All MPI and MPE objects, MPI_Comm, MPE_XGraph and MPE_Color, are of type INTEGER in Fortran.
If Fortran display argument is an empty string, "", display will be taken from the DISPLAY variable on the process with rank 0 in comm .
The trailing blanks in Fortran CHARACTER string argument will be ignored.
