# shmem\_info\_get\_version(3)

*shmem\_info\_get\_version* - Returns the major and minor version of the library implementation.

## SYNOPSIS

C or C++:

```
#include <mpp/shmem.h>
void shmem_info_get_version(int *major, int *minor)
```

Fortran:

```
include 'mpp/shmem.fh'
SHMEM_INFO_GET_VERSION(MAJOR, MINOR)
INTEGER MAJOR, MINOR
```

## DESCRIPTION

shmem\_info\_get\_version() This routine returns the major and minor version of the OpenSHMEM standard in use. For a given library implementation, the major and minor version returned by these calls is consistent with the compile-time constants, SHMEM\_MAJOR\_VERSION and SHMEM\_MINOR\_VERSION, defined in its shmem.h. The valid major version value is 1, and the valid minor version value is 2.
