MPI_Attr_get(3)                    Open MPI                    MPI_Attr_get(3)

NAME
       MPI_Attr_get  - Retrieves attribute value by key -- use of this routine
       is deprecated.

SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Attr_get(MPI_Comm comm, int keyval,void *attribute_val,
            int *flag )

Fortran Syntax
       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_ATTR_GET(COMM, KEYVAL, ATTRIBUTE_VAL, FLAG, IERROR)
            INTEGER   COMM, KEYVAL, ATTRIBUTE_VAL, IERROR
            LOGICAL   FLAG

INPUT PARAMETERS
       comm      Communicator to which attribute is attached (handle).

       keyval
                  Key value (integer).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS
       attribute_val
                 Attribute value, unless flag = false.

       flag      True if an attribute value was extracted; false if no  attri-
                 bute is associated with the key.

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION
       Note  that  use  of  this  routine  is  deprecated as of MPI-2, and was
       deleted in MPI-3. Please use MPI_Comm_get_attr.  This function does not
       have a C++ or mpi_f08 binding.

       Retrieves  attribute value by key. The call is erroneous if there is no
       key with value keyval. On the other hand, the call is  correct  if  the
       key value exists, but no attribute is attached on comm for that key; in
       such case, the call returns flag = false. In particular  MPI_KEYVAL_IN-
       VALID is an erroneous key value.

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.
