18.2.69. PMIx_Get_version

PMIx_Get_version — Return the PMIx version string.

18.2.69.1. SYNOPSIS

#include <pmix.h>

const char* PMIx_Get_version(void);

18.2.69.1.1. Python Syntax

from pmix import *

foo = PMIxClient()
version = foo.get_version()

18.2.69.2. DESCRIPTION

Return the PMIx version string identifying the PMIx library in use.

PMIx_Get_version may be called outside of the initialized and finalized region — it does not require a prior call to PMIx_Init(3) — and is usable by servers and tools in addition to clients.

Note

The returned string is statically defined within the PMIx library and must not be modified or freed by the caller.

18.2.69.3. RETURN VALUE

Returns a pointer to a statically allocated, NULL-terminated string containing the PMIx version information. The function takes no arguments and always returns a valid, non-NULL pointer.

18.2.69.4. NOTES

Because the returned string is owned by the library, callers must never pass it to free().
