NAME

       MPI_Info_delete - Deletes a key/value pair from info.

SYNTAX


C Syntax

       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Info_delete(MPI_Info info, char *key)

Fortran Syntax

       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_INFO_DELETE(INFO, KEY, IERROR)
            INTEGER        INFO, IERROR
            CHARACTER*(*)  KEY

C++ Syntax

       #include <mpi.h>
       void MPI::Info::Delete(const char* key)

INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER

       info      Info object (handle).

INPUT PARAMETER

       key       Key (string).

OUTPUT PARAMETER

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       MPI_Info_delete  deletes  a  (key,value)  pair from info. If key is not
       defined in info, the call raises an error of class  MPI_ERR_INFO_NOKEY.

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.
