INPUT PARAMETERS
comm Communicator with Cartesian structure (handle).
maxdims Length of vectors dims, periods, and coords in the calling
program (integer).
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
dims Number of processes for each Cartesian dimension (array of
integers).
periods Periodicity (true/false) for each Cartesian dimension (array
of logicals).
coords Coordinates of calling process in Cartesian structure (array
of integers).
IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
The functions MPI_Cartdim_get and MPI_Cart_get return the Cartesian
topology information that was associated with a communicator by
MPI_Cart_create.
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.
