INPUT PARAMETERS
----------------
* ``local_group`` : Local group (handler)
* ``local_leader`` : rank of local group leader in local_group (integer)
* ``remote_group`` : Remote group (handler)
* ``remote_leader`` : rank of remote leader in remote_group, significant
only at local_leader (integer)
* ``stringtag`` : Unique identifier for this operation (string)
* ``info`` : info object (handler)
* ``errhandler`` : error handler to be attached to the new
inter-communicator (handle)
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
-----------------
* ``newintercomm`` : New inter-communicator (handle).
* ``ierror`` : Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
-----------
:ref:`MPI_Intercomm_create_from_groups` creates an inter-communicator. Unlike
:ref:`MPI_Intercomm_create`, this function uses as input previously defined,
disjoint local and remote groups. The calling MPI process must be a
member of the local group. The call is collective over the union of the
local and remote groups. All involved MPI processes shall provide an
identical value for the stringtag argument. Within each group, all MPI
processes shall provide identical local_group, local_leader arguments.
Wildcards are not permitted for the remote_leader or local_leader
arguments. The stringtag argument serves the same purpose as the
stringtag used in the :ref:`MPI_Comm_create_from_group` function; it
differentiates concurrent calls in a multithreaded environment. The
stringtag shall not exceed MPI_MAX_STRINGTAG_LEN characters in length.
For C, this includes space for a null terminating character. In the
event that MPI_GROUP_EMPTY is supplied as the local_group or
remote_group1 or both, then the call is a local operation and
MPI_COMM_NULL is returned as the newintercomm.
NOTES
-----
The errhandler argument specifies an error handler to be attached to the
new inter-communicator. The info argument provides hints and assertions,
possibly MPI implementation dependent, which indicate desired
characteristics and guide communicator creation. MPI_MAX_STRINGTAG_LEN
shall have a value of at least 63.
