There is no rationale, other than that this is an IN argument and hence is unchanged. Of course, declaring it as const achieves nothing new. I think it was just a rote application of that rule, to a routine that is rarely used. Bill William Gropp Acting Director and Chief Scientist, NCSA Director, Parallel Computing Institute Thomas M.

Hi All,
I apologize if this is a dumb question -- what's the rationale for the const qualifier on the level argument to MPI_Pcontrol?
int MPI_Pcontrol(const int level, ...)
