## Function Documentation

## ◆ ex_get_node_num_map()

int ex_get_node_num_map | ( | int | exoid,
|  | void_int * | node_map
| ) |  |

Deprecated:
  Use ex_get_id_map()(exoid, EX_NODE_MAP, node_map)

The function ex_get_node_num_map() reads the optional node number mapnode number map from the database. See Section LocalNodeIds for a description of the node number map. If a node number map is not stored in the data file, a default array (1,2,3,. .. num_nodes) is returned. Memory must be allocated for the node number map array (num_nodes in length) before this call is made.

Returns
  In case of an error, ex_get_node_num_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()
  - if a node number map is not stored, a default map and a warning value are returned.

Parameters

  [in] | exoid | exodus file ID returned from a previous call to ex_create() or ex_open().
  [out] | node_map | Returned node number map.

The following code will read a node number map from an open exodus file :

int *node_map, error, exoid;
/* read node number map */
node_map = (int *)calloc(num_nodes, sizeof(int));
error = ex_get_node_num_map(exoid, node_map);
/* Equivalent using non-deprecated function */
error = ex_get_id_map(exoid, EX_NODE_MAP, node_map);
