void MPI::Datatype::Delete_attr(int type_keyval)
 
type Data type from which the attribute is deleted
(handle).n
  
type_keyval Key value (integer).
  
MPI_Type_delete_attr
deletes a datatype-caching attribute value associated with a key. This routines
partially replaces MPI_Attr_delete, which is now deprecated.IERROR
Fortran only: Error status (integer).
  
 
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. 
 
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.
