Query memory bound to a blob

ss_blob_bound_m is a function defined in ssblob.c.

Synopsis:

void * ss_blob_bound_m(ss_blob_t *blob, hid_t *mtype, hid_t *mspace)

Formal Arguments:

  • blob: Blob to query.
  • mtype [OUT]: Optional pointer for memory datatype, duplicated from that stored in
  • mspace [OUT]: Optional pointer for memory dataspace (extent and selection),

Description: This function queries information about the memory that is bound to the blob through the ss_blob_bind_m function.

Return Value: Returns a pointer to memory (the same pointer as passed to ss_blob_bind_m) bound to the blob, and also returns copies of the memory datatype and data space through the optional mtype and mspace pointer arguments. Returns the null pointer on failure. It is considered a failure to ask for memory information for a blob that is not bound to memory.
