MPI_Comm_delete_attr(3)            Open MPI            MPI_Comm_delete_attr(3)

NAME
       MPI_Comm_delete_attr - Deletes attribute value associated with a key.

SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Comm_delete_attr(MPI_Comm comm, int comm_keyval)

Fortran Syntax
       USE MPI
       ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_COMM_DELETE_ATTR(COMM, COMM_KEYVAL, IERROR)
            INTEGER   COMM, COMM_KEYVAL, IERROR

Fortran 2008 Syntax
       USE mpi_f08
       MPI_Comm_delete_attr(comm, comm_keyval, ierror)
            TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(IN) :: comm
            INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: comm_keyval
            INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       void MPI::Comm::Delete_attr(int comm_keyval)

INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER
       comm      Communicator from which the attribute is deleted (handle).

INPUT PARAMETER
       comm_keyval
                 Key value (integer).

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

DESCRIPTION
       MPI_Comm_delete_attr deletes an attribute from cache by key. This func-
       tion invokes the attribute delete function delete_fn specified when the
       comm_keyval  was  created. The call will fail if the delete_fn function
       returns an error code other than MPI_SUCCESS.

       Whenever a communicator is replicated using the function  MPI_Comm_dup,
       all  callback  copy functions for attributes that are currently set are
       invoked (in arbitrary order). Whenever a communicator is deleted  using
       the  function  MPI_Comm_free,  all  callback  delete  functions for at-
       tributes that are currently set are invoked.

       This function is the same as MPI_Attr_delete but is needed to match the
       communicator-specific  functions  introduced in the MPI-2 standard. The
       use of MPI_Attr_delete is deprecated.

NOTES
       Note that it is not defined by the MPI standard  what  happens  if  the
       delete_fn callback invokes other MPI functions.  In Open MPI, it is not
       valid for delete_fn callbacks (or any of  their  children)  to  add  or
       delete attributes on the same object on which the delete_fn callback is
       being invoked.

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++ func-
       tions 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.
