 MPI_File_set_errhandler 3 "#OMPI_DATE#" "#PACKAGE_VERSION#" "#PACKAGE_NAME#"
 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
USE MPI
! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
MPI_FILE_SET_ERRHANDLER(FILE, ERRHANDLER, IERROR)
 INTEGER FILE, ERRHANDLER, IERROR




 Fortran 2008 Syntax
USE mpi_f08
MPI_File_set_errhandler(file, errhandler, ierror)
 TYPE(MPI_File), INTENT(IN) :: file
 TYPE(MPI_Errhandler), INTENT(IN) :: errhandler
 INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror




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




 INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER
 1i
file
File (handle).


 INPUT PARAMETER
 1i
errhandler
New error handler for file (handle).


 OUTPUT PARAMETER
 1i
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.
