Description

Currently, in dune-common we only have collective communication, but no point-to-point communication such send and receive (i.e. MPI_Isend, MPI_Irecv) is available.

The communication classes should be improved providing such features.

Together with that we need a proper stream class (e.g. like the ALUGrid ObjectStream currently used as message buffer in gather and scatter of the DataHandle) allowing to read/write simple objects to/from the data stream which then can be exchanged as MPI_BYTE stream.
