This function is the same as MPI_TYPE_INDEXED except that the blocklength is the same for all blocks. There are many codes using indirect addressing arising from unstructured grids where the blocksize is always 1 (gather/scatter). The following convenience function allows for constant blocksize and arbitrary displacements.
| MPI_TYPE_CREATE_INDEXED_BLOCK(count, blocklength, array_of_displacements, oldtype, newtype) | |
| IN count | length of array of displacements (integer) |
| IN blocklength | size of block (integer) |
| IN array_of_displacements | array of displacements (array of integer) |
| IN oldtype | old datatype (handle) |
| OUT newtype | new datatype (handle) |
