NOTES

30       This  function is deprecated.  It has been replaced with an MPI-2 func‐
31       tion (see the "See also" section, below), which provides the same func‐
32       tionality.   This  function  is  (or  effectively  is) a wrapper to the
33       replacement function, anyway.   User  programs  should  use  the  MPI-2
34       replacement function instead of this function.
35
36       Some  functions  are  deprecated because their names did not conform to
37       the stricter naming conventions of MPI-2; others are deprecated because
38       they have been replaced with more flexible functionality.

MORE INFORMATION

46       For more information, please see the official MPI Forum web site, which
47       contains the text of both the MPI-1 and MPI-2 standards.   These  docu‐
48       ments  contain  detailed  information  about each MPI function (most of
49       which is not duplicated in these man pages).
