MPI_Win_create_errhandler - Creates an error handler for a window.
#include <mpi.h>

MPI_Errhandler *errhandler)

errhandler_function* function)
MPI-2.2 deprecated the MPI_Win_errhandler_fn and
MPI::Win::Errhandler_fn types in favor of MPI_Win_errhandler_function and
MPI::Win::Errhandler_function, respectively. Open MPI supports both names
(indeed, the _fn names are typedefs to the _function names).
- function
- User-defined error-handling procedure (function).
- errhandler
- MPI error handler (handle).
- IERROR
- Fortran only: Error status (integer).
MPI_Win_create_errhandler should be, in C, a function of type
MPI_Win_errhandler_function, which is defined as
typedef void MPI_Win_errhandler_function(MPI Win *, int *, ...);
The first argument is the window in use, the second is the error code to
be returned.
In Fortran, the user routine should be of the form:
SUBROUTINE WIN_ERRHANDLER_FUNCTION(WIN, ERROR_CODE, ...)
INTEGER WIN, ERROR_CODE
In C++, the user routine should be of the form:
typedef void MPI::Win::errhandler_function(MPI::Win &, int *, ...);
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_Win_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.
