Can you post the code? That will help a lot. Thanks, Jeff Sent from my iPhone On May 19, 2013, at 10:24 AM, Himadri Barman <[email protected]> wrote: Hi, I have a question: If I have an array with negative indices, say defined as A(-5:5) in Fortran. Can I use that for COLLECTIVE CALL, e.g MPI_Bcast, MPI_Gather without transforming to a new array with positive indices? If I have my array defined as A(0:11), I find no issues. Hope you can help me.
