NAME
       pvm_serror - Sets automatic error message printing on or off.
       [In Version 3.2: Replaced by pvm_setopt]

SYNOPSIS
       C    int oldset = pvm_serror( int set )

       Fortran	 call pvmfserror( set, oldset )

PARAMETERS
       set     Integer defining whether detection is to be turned on(1) or off(0).

       oldset  Integer defining the previous setting of pvm_serror.

DESCRIPTION
       The  routine pvm_serror sets automatic error message printing for all subsequent PVM calls by this process. Any PVM routines that return an
       error condition will automatically print the associated error message. The argument set defines whether this detection is to be	turned	on(1)  or turned off(0) for subsequent calls.  In the future a value of(2) will cause the program to exit after printing the error message.
       pvm_serror returns the previous value of set in oldset.

       All stdout and stderr messages are placed in the file /tmp/pvml.<uid> on the master pvmd's host.

EXAMPLES
       C:
	    info = pvm_serror( 1 );
       Fortran:
	    CALL PVMFSERROR( 0, INFO )

ERRORS
       This error condition can be returned by pvm_serror

       PvmBadParam
	      giving an invalid set value.
