NAME

       MPI_Status_set_cancelled - Sets status to indicate a request has been canceled.

SYNTAX

C Syntax

       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Status_set_cancelled(MPI_Status *status, int flag)

Fortran Syntax

       INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_STATUS_SET_CANCELLED(STATUS, FLAG, IERROR)
            INTEGER   STATUS(MPI_STATUS_SIZE), IERROR
            LOGICAL FLAG

C++ Syntax

       #include <mpi.h>
       void MPI::Status::Set_cancelled(bool flag)

INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER

       status    Status with which to associate cancel flag (status).

INPUT PARAMETER

       flag      If true, indicates request was canceled (logical).

OUTPUT PARAMETER

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

       If  flag  is  set to true, then a subsequent call to MPI_Test_cancelled(status, flag) will
       also return flag = true; otherwise it will return false.

NOTES

       Users are advised not to reuse the status fields for values other  than  those  for  which
       they  were intended. Doing so may lead to unexpected results when using the status object.
       For example, calling MPI_Get_elements may cause an error if the value is out of range,  or
       it  may  be  impossible  to detect such an error. The extra_state argument provided with a
       generalized request can be used to return information that does not  logically  belong  in
       status.  Furthermore,  modifying  the  values  in  a status set internally by MPI, such as
       MPI_Recv, may lead to unpredictable results and is strongly discouraged.

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++ 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.
