MPI_File_set_errhandler(3OpenMPI)                                          MPI_File_set_errhandler(3OpenMPI)



NAME
       MPI_File_set_errhandler  - Sets the error handler for a file.


SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_File_set_errhandler(MPI_File file, MPI_Errhandler
            errhandler)


Fortran Syntax
       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_FILE_SET_ERRHANDLER(FILE, ERRHANDLER, IERROR)
            INTEGER   FILE, ERRHANDLER, IERROR


C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       void MPI::File::Set_errhandler(const MPI::Errhandler& errhandler)


INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER
       file      File (handle).


INPUT PARAMETER
       errhandler
                 New error handler for file (handle).


OUTPUT PARAMETER
       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).


DESCRIPTION
       Attaches  a  new error handler to a file. The error handler must be either a predefined error handler
       or an error handler created by a call to MPI_File_create_errhandler.


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. For MPI I/O function
       errors, the default error handler is set to MPI_ERRORS_RETURN. The error handler may be changed  with
       MPI_File_set_errhandler;  the  predefined  error handler MPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL may be used to make I/O
       errors fatal. Note that MPI does not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
