pvm_setrbuf - Switches the active receive buffer and saves the previous buffer.

Description

       The routine pvm_setrbuf switches the active receive buffer to bufid and saves the previous active receive
       buffer  oldbuf.   If  bufid  is  set  to  0 then the present active receive buffer is saved and no active
       receive buffer exists.

       A successful receive automatically creates a new active receive buffer.  If a previous  receive  has  not
       been  unpacked  and  needs to be saved for later, then the previous bufid can be saved and reset later to
       the active buffer for unpacking.

       The routine is required when managing multiple message buffers.  For example  switching  back  and  forth
       between  two  buffers.   One  buffer  could  be used to send information to a graphical interface while a
       second buffer could be used send data to other tasks in the application.

Errors

       These error conditions can be returned by pvm_setrbuf

       PvmBadParam
              giving an invalid bufid.

       PvmNoSuchBuf
              switching to a non-existent message buffer.

Examples

       C:
            rbuf1 = pvm_setrbuf( rbuf2 );

       Fortran:
            CALL PVMFSETRBUF( NEWBUF, OLDBUF )

Name

       pvm_setrbuf - Switches the active receive buffer and saves the previous buffer.

Parameters

       bufid   Integer specifying the message buffer identifier for the new active receive buffer.

       oldbuf  Integer returning the message buffer identifier for the previous active receive buffer.
