.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP 
The usual way to add distances is: 
.PP
.nf
hwloc_distances_add_handle_t handle;
int err = -1;
handle = hwloc_distances_add_create(topology, "name", kind, 0);
if (handle) {
  err = hwloc_distances_add_values(topology, handle, nbobjs, objs, values, 0);
  if (!err)
    err = hwloc_distances_add_commit(topology, handle, flags);
}

.fi
.PP
 If \fCerr\fP is \fC0\fP at the end, then addition was successful\&.

.TP
\fB\fIHWLOC_DISTANCES_ADD_FLAG_GROUP \fP\fP
Try to group objects based on the newly provided distance information\&. This is ignored for distances between objects of different types\&. 
.TP
\fB\fIHWLOC_DISTANCES_ADD_FLAG_GROUP_INACCURATE \fP\fP
If grouping, consider the distance values as inaccurate and relax the comparisons during the grouping algorithms\&. The actual accuracy may be modified through the HWLOC_GROUPING_ACCURACY environment variable (see \fBEnvironment Variables\fP)\&. 
.SH "Function Documentation"
.PP 
.SS "int hwloc_distances_add_commit (\fBhwloc_topology_t\fP topology, \fBhwloc_distances_add_handle_t\fP handle, unsigned long flags)"

.PP
Commit a new distances structure\&. This function finalizes the distances structure and inserts in it the topology\&.
.PP
Parameter \fChandle\fP was previously returned by \fBhwloc_distances_add_create()\fP\&. Then objects and values were specified with \fBhwloc_distances_add_values()\fP\&.
.PP
\fCflags\fP configures the behavior of the function using an optional OR'ed set of \fBhwloc_distances_add_flag_e\fP\&. It may be used to request the grouping of existing objects based on distances\&.
.PP
On error, the temporary distances structure and its content are destroyed\&.
.PP
\fBReturns\fP
.RS 4
0 on success\&. 
.PP
-1 on error\&.

.SS "\fBhwloc_distances_add_handle_t\fP hwloc_distances_add_create (\fBhwloc_topology_t\fP topology, const char * name, unsigned long kind, unsigned long flags)"

.PP
Create a new empty distances structure\&. Create an empty distances structure to be filled with \fBhwloc_distances_add_values()\fP and then committed with \fBhwloc_distances_add_commit()\fP\&.
.PP
Parameter \fCname\fP is optional, it may be \fCNULL\fP\&. Otherwise, it will be copied internally and may later be freed by the caller\&.
.PP
\fCkind\fP specifies the kind of distance as a OR'ed set of \fBhwloc_distances_kind_e\fP\&. Kind \fBHWLOC_DISTANCES_KIND_HETEROGENEOUS_TYPES\fP will be automatically set according to objects having different types in \fBhwloc_distances_add_values()\fP\&.
.PP
\fCflags\fP must be \fC0\fP for now\&.
.PP
\fBReturns\fP
.RS 4
A hwloc_distances_add_handle_t that should then be passed to \fBhwloc_distances_add_values()\fP and \fBhwloc_distances_add_commit()\fP\&.
.PP
\fCNULL\fP on error\&.

.PP
Specify the objects and values in a new empty distances structure\&. Specify the objects and values for a new distances structure that was returned as a handle by \fBhwloc_distances_add_create()\fP\&. The structure must then be committed with \fBhwloc_distances_add_commit()\fP\&.
.PP
The number of objects is \fCnbobjs\fP and the array of objects is \fCobjs\fP\&. Distance values are stored as a one-dimension array in \fCvalues\fP\&. The distance from object i to object j is in slot i*nbobjs+j\&.
.PP
\fCnbobjs\fP must be at least 2\&.
.PP
Arrays \fCobjs\fP and \fCvalues\fP will be copied internally, they may later be freed by the caller\&.
