[Boost-users] Boost.MPI: question about documentation of gather()

Hello, I am trying to debug my simple code (gathering of double arrays onto master). and naturally I opened gather online help: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_45_0/doc/html/boost/mpi/gather.html In Parameters section, for 'in_values', it is stating that if gathering arrays of values, 'in_values' should be pointing to a storage of n*comm.size() values Shouldn't this be n*size_of(T) or something in those lines? Am I missing some obvious points here ? thanks in advance, Hamid
