Make an object unique

SS_PERS_UNIQUE is a macro defined in sspers.h.

Synopsis:

SS_PERS_UNIQUE(_pers_)

Description: Makes an object unique by giving it a unique serial number. The number is unique across all the MPI tasks so that when N tasks create N identical new objects that only differ in serial number, SSlib will convert them to N identical permanent objects instead of merging them all into a single permanent object.

Return Value: Returns non-negative on success; negative on failure.

Parallel Notes: Independent
