## Function Documentation

## ◆ ex_put_map()

int ex_put_map | ( | int | exoid,
|  | const void_int * | elem_map
| ) |  |

The function ex_put_map() writes out the optional element order map to the database. See #ElementOrderMap for a description of the element order map. The function ex_put_init() must be invoked before this call is made.

In case of an error, ex_put_map() returns a negative number; a warning will return a positive number. Possible causes of errors include:

- data file not properly opened with call to ex_create() or ex_open()
- data file opened for read only.
- data file not initialized properly with call to ex_put_init().
- an element map already exists in the file.

Parameters

  [in] | exoid | exodus file ID returned from a previous call to ex_create() or ex_open().
  [in] | elem_map | The element order map.

The following code generates a default element order map and outputs it to an open exodus file. This is a trivial case and included just for illustration. Since this map is optional, it should be written out only if it contains something other than the default map.

int error, exoid;
int *elem_map = (int *)calloc(num_elem, sizeof(int));
for (i=0; i < num_elem; i++) {
elem_map[i] = i+1;
}
error = ex_put_map(exoid, elem_map);
