MPI_Comm_disconnect(3)             Open MPI             MPI_Comm_disconnect(3)

NAME
       MPI_Comm_disconnect  -  Deallocates communicator object and sets handle
       to MPI_COMM_NULL.

SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Comm_disconnect(MPI_Comm *comm)

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

Fortran 2008 Syntax
       USE mpi_f08
       MPI_Comm_disconnect(comm, ierror)
            TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(INOUT) :: comm
            INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

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

INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER
       comm      Communicator (handle).

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

DESCRIPTION
       MPI_Comm_disconnect waits for all pending communication on comm to com-
       plete  internally,  deallocates  the  communicator object, and sets the
       handle to MPI_COMM_NULL. It is a collective operation.

       It  may  not  be  called  with  the  communicator   MPI_COMM_WORLD   or
       MPI_COMM_SELF.

       MPI_Comm_disconnect may be called only if all communication is complete
       and matched, so that buffered data can be delivered to its destination.
       This requirement is the same as for MPI_Finalize.

       MPI_Comm_disconnect  has  the same action as MPI_Comm_free, except that
       it waits for pending communication to finish internally and enables the
       guarantee about the behavior of disconnected processes.

NOTES
       To  disconnect  two processes you may need to call MPI_Comm_disconnect,
       MPI_Win_free, and MPI_File_close to remove all communication paths  be-
       tween  the  two  processes. Note that it may be necessary to disconnect
       several communicators (or to free several windows or files) before  two
       processes are completely independent.

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.
