 * \author	Hari Sundar, hsundar@gmail.com

  Traits to determine MPI_DATATYPE from a C++ datatype. For non standard
  C++ datatypes (like classes), we will need to define additional classes. An
  example is given for the case of the std. complex variable. Additional
  classes can be added as required.
