This can be verified with t_mpi test under testpar. * On IRIX6.5, when C compiler version >7.4, the complicate MPI derived data type code will work. However, the user should be aware to enlarge MPI_TYPE_MAX environment variable to some certian value in order to use collective irregular selection code. -- cgit v0.12
