.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Return the PMIx version string identifying the PMIx library in use.
.sp
\fBPMIx_Get_version\fP may be called outside of the initialized and finalized
region — it does not require a prior call to
PMIx_Init(3) \%<#\:man3-pmix-init> — and is usable by servers and tools in
addition to clients.
.sp
\fBNote:\fP
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
The returned string is statically defined within the PMIx library and must
\fBnot\fP be modified or freed by the caller.
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.SH RETURN VALUE
.sp
Returns a pointer to a statically allocated, NULL\-terminated string containing the
PMIx version information. The function takes no arguments and always returns a
valid, non\-\fBNULL\fP pointer.
.SH NOTES
.sp
Because the returned string is owned by the library, callers must never pass it to
\fBfree()\fP\&.
