Description

S3L_DefineArray associates an internal S3L array handle to a user-distributed parallel array. The array must be distributed in such a manner that it can be expressed as a block cyclic distribution. The array handle returned by S3L_DefineArray can then be used in subsequent calls by Sun MPI programs to S3L functions.

S3L_DefineArray does not allocate the memory required to store the local (process specific) part on the array. The user must allocate sufficient memory on each process to hold the local part of the parallel array before calling this function.
