.TH MPI_File_seek_shared 3 "8/31/1998" " " "MPI-2".SH NAMEMPI_File_seek_shared \-  Updates the shared file pointer .SH SYNOPSIS.nf#include "mpi.h"int MPI_File_seek_shared(MPI_File fh, MPI_Offset offset, int whence).fi.SH INPUT PARAMETERS.PD 0.TP.B fh - file handle (handle).PD 1.PD 0.TP.B offset - file offset (integer).PD 1.PD 0.TP.B whence - update mode (state).PD 1.SH NOTES FOR FORTRANAll MPI routines in Fortran (except for 'MPI_WTIME' and 'MPI_WTICK')have an additional argument 'ierr' at the end of the argument list.'ierr' is an integer and has the same meaning as the return value ofthe routine in C.  In Fortran, MPI routines are subroutines and areinvoked with the 'call' statement.All MPI objects (e.g., 'MPI_Datatype', 'MPI_Comm', 'MPI_File') are oftype 'INTEGER' in Fortran.
