void MPI::Datatype::Set_name(const char* type_name)
- type
- Data type for which the identifier is to be
set (handle).
- type_name
- The character string remembered
as the name (string).
- IERROR
- Fortran only: Error status
(integer).
MPI_Type_set_name associates a printable identifier
with an MPI data type.
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.
