DESCRIPTION
-----------

Handles are passed between Fortran and C by using an explicit C wrapper
to convert Fortran handles to C handles. There is no direct access to C
handles in Fortran. The type definition MPI_Fint is provided in C for
an integer of the size that matches a Fortran *INTEGER*; usually,
MPI_Fint will be equivalent to *int*. The handle translation functions
are provided in C to convert from a Fortran handle (which is an integer)
to a C handle, and vice versa.

For example, if *comm* is a valid Fortran handle to a communicator, then
:ref:`MPI_Comm_f2c` returns a valid C handle to that same communicator; if
*comm* = MPI_COMM_NULL (Fortran value), then :ref:`MPI_Comm_f2c` returns a null
C handle; if *comm* is an invalid Fortran handle, then :ref:`MPI_Comm_f2c`
returns an invalid C handle.


NOTE
----

This function does not return an error value. Consequently, the result
of calling it before :ref:`MPI_Init` or after :ref:`MPI_Finalize` is undefined.
