INPUT

       IERROR	 Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION
       MPI_Comm_set_errhandler	attaches  a new error handler to a communicator. The error handler must be either a predefined error handler or an
       error handler created by a call to MPI_Comm_create_errhandler. This call is identical to MPI_Errhandler_set, the use  of  which	is  depre-
       cated.

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.
