NAME

pvm_lvgroup - Unenrolls the calling process from a named group.

SYNOPSIS

C int info = pvm_lvgroup( char *group )

Fortran call pvmflvgroup( group, info )

PARAMETERS

group Character string group name of an existing group.

info Integer status code returned by the routine. Values less than zero indicate an error.

DISCUSSION

The routine pvm_lvgroup unenrolls the calling process from the group named group. If there is an error info will be negative.

If a process leaves a group by calling either pvm_lvgroup or pvm_exit, and later rejoins the same group, the process may be assigned a new instance number. Old instance numbers are reassigned to processes calling pvm_joingroup.

EXAMPLES

C:
info = pvm_lvgroup( "worker" );

Fortran:
CALL PVMFLVGROUP( `group2', INFO )

ERRORS

These error conditions can be returned by pvm_lvgroup
PvmSysErr
pvmd not responding.
PvmBadParam
giving a NULL group name.
PvmNoGroup
giving a non-existent group name. PvmNotInGroup asking to leave a group you are not a member of.
