mpi_errhandler_free(3)
NAME
MPI_Errhandler_free - Frees an MPI-style error handler.
SYNTAX
C Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Errhandler_free(MPI_Errhandler *errhandler)
Fortran Syntax
- INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
MPI_ERRHANDLER_FREE(ERRHANDLER, IERROR) - INTEGER ERRHANDLER, IERROR
C++ Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
void Errhandler::Free()
INPUT PARAMETER
- errhandler
- MPI error handler (handle). Set to MPI_ERRHANDLER_NULL on exit.
OUTPUT PARAMETER
IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
Marks the error handler associated with errhandler for deallocation and
sets errhandler to MPI_ERRHANDLER_NULL. The error handler will be deallocated after all communicators associated with it have been deallocated.
ERRORS
Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the value
of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument. C++ functions do not return errors. If the default error handler is set to
MPI::ERRORS_THROW_EXCEPTIONS, then on error the C++ exception mechanism
will be used to throw an MPI:Exception object.
Before the error value is returned, the current MPI error handler is
called. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job, except for
I/O function errors. The error handler may be changed with
MPI_Comm_set_errhandler; the predefined error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN
may be used to cause error values to be returned. Note that MPI does
not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
