- Communicator (handle).

- Request
(handle, non-blocking only).
- IERROR
- Fortran only: Error status (integer).
An MPI barrier completes after all group members have entered
the barrier.
When the communicator
is an inter-communicator, the barrier operation is performed across all
processes in both groups. All processes in the first group may exit the
barrier when all processes in the second group have entered the barrier.
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.
